Aleš „Alesh“ Hemer – a member of our Hearthstone section will leave to Stockholm already this Thursday. He will try to succeed in a tournament Viagame House Cup, where he will compete for $ 20 000.
It is a tournament for 16 players and we can look forward to see really famous characters that will arrive from overseas. They are the top players from all around the world and 8 of them were invited. Among them are, for example Reynad,
Amaz, Gnimsh,
Rdu and others. A second group of eight players will join these famous eight players. But this group had to work hard in two qualifications to get to Sweden.
Among these successful qualifiers is also Alesh. He managed to qualify at the LanCraft Autumn 2014, where he defeated in the semi-finals a player from the Innovation team, Beherit which got him to the qualified four-player group and bought him a way to the capital of Sweden.
A few days ago were also announced the groups, which will be played quite an unusual way. It is called GSL format. It means that two winners and two losers from the first group match will meet each other. The second win will guarantee them a direct spot in play-off. You can look forward to number of really exciting matches, since the groups will be played for three won games – Bo5, play-off will be Bo7 and the grand finale Bo9. So it will be really interesting. Alesh will play in the group D where he will meet a polish player from the Cloud 9 team, Gnimsh. If he manages to defeat him he will meet the winner of the duel Rdu vs. Seloko. Otherwise, the loser will be waiting for him.
