Top 8

The second day of Rakan Muda E-Gig for us started with EoG playing St.Ftw who themselves defeated Show in the second round. Again it was a full Chinese team against us (the last match were also against a full Chinese team; it saddens me to see a sport greatly loved by us Malays but somehow we always managed to be incompetent enough to fail).

Our draft was exactly the same as the day before with Undying, Demon Witch, Tidehunter, Faerie Dragon, and only our last hero was changed from Admiral Proudmoore to Priestess of the Moon. We eventually won by quite a margin and henceforth advanced to to last eight of the competition.

Only one hour later we were sitting in front of Malaysia's representatives (InC.xLo) in the last WCG Asia where they achieved the runner-up spot. It was intriguing and at the same time intimidating. Even though we kind of expect to be beaten by them, but some mistakes in our draft and poor coordination in game led to a disappointing heavy loss.

That's not to say we are putting all the blame on our leader (as he does the drafting), because all of us take some part in contributing ideas to him too. After this loss, EoG does not take interest in self-pity and we even trained again tonight.

Let's hope this Top 8 achievement would spur us on for more!

EoG FTW!
