As you may, or may not know, the poll to decide which teams the fans think should make it to the e-Stars Seoul event, has been running for 30 days now, but it has been officially closed today.
The poll presents some surprises, mainly in Europe, where the Spaniards from x6tence seem to have a big fan base, and made it to the 4th place, but, maybe the biggest surprise, is that the Danes from mTw didn’t cut it.
In America, the Argentineans from Wild Ineters have claimed the second spot in the poll just behind EG, and infront of the likes of UMX.us and Firegamers, something the CS community hasn’t taken lightly, considering the unknown character of the Argentineans.
In Asia things where pretty much as expected, with the Chinese teams taking 2/3 of the spots, which doesn’t seem so surprising, considering the big population playing games over there.
We must remember, that, the voting process is just a 50% of the total vote, as the organization will have the last word, with their 50%, of which teams go and which do not.
