Today ESL confirmed 5 of the 8 teams that will be in attendance at the IEM: Asian Championship Finals in Taipei.

The 5 confirmed teams are:

 

Singapore TitaNs

Prasad 'StrykerX' Paramajothi
Sean 'syck' Lau
Li Zeng 'techduck' Cong
Chan Kar 'extreMe' Chun
Andrew 'bali' Joseph
Hong Kong DuskBin

Jan 'pixl' Li
Wai-Lun 'protege' Wong
Kwun-Fung 'fungbi' Lau
Kwan-Yeung 'perhaps' Tam
Siu-Yin 'aumei' Cheng
Korea WeMadeFox

Sun-Ho 'termi' Pyun
Sung-Jae 'bail' Lee
Seung-Wook 'GARSIA' Lee
Min-Soo 'glow' Kim
Keun-Chul 'solo' Kang
Australia Immunity

Miles 'rizE' O'Connor
Gareth 'gazR' Lynn
Fergus 'ferg' Stephenson
Mike 'Apoc' Aliferis
Otis 'pupajoN' Duncan
Taiwan UMX-Gaming

Tsung-Kai 'Evant' Chen
Tzu-An 'CedriK' Chen
Chia-Heng 'Kandinsky'Chen
Yen-Jui 'Nitor' Liu
Yu-Chung 'Nevan' Chang

 

Although ESL's press release indicate the 3 remaining teams will be announced next week, PCGames.com.cn have published the original invite list which include Indonesia XCN and both the China TyLoo teams, one of them being the ex-wNv squad.

However according to PCG, China TyLoo have not completed their visa's to Taiwan which will mean their spot will be filled by two local teams instead. A news announcement made on the UMX-Gaming website further confirms these claims by asking for local teams to apply for the event.

This comes as good news for Australia Immunity as they will only be underdogs to the Koreans and should hopefully secure themselves a spot in the IEM Global Finals by finishing top 2.

looks good :) can't wait ... show some love aus!

in regards to tyloo; i think theyre somewhere in asia currently doing Arbalet cup with the russians and wemadefox, maybe they just couldn't budget or make it in time for IEM. Others say that the organisation is dieing. It's a bit of a shame, but atleast it opens up more chance of us getting to global finals!

From what's on the asian news sites it doesn't look like tyloo is going + umx have already started helping ESL look for local teams as replacements.. all the better for Australia to advance through to the global finals though :)

both tyloo teams (including the old wnv team) are playing arbalet cup this weekend, and couldnt not secure visa's for IEM in time.

So it looks like it could be a 3 horse race with iM,WMF,Titans - with 2 spots available
