The qualifier has concluded Congratulations to those who made it through, some new faces and returning ones which is great to see! And of course commiserations to the participants who didn't make it, I hope you had an enjoyable experience! The qualifiees are as follows: Swatoslav Skrat Turinturambar Whiteheart LilyAly Mimikz The seeding will be announced on the forums shortly, alongside the spreadsheet being posted.
