The Finnish World Cyber Games qualifier took place last weekend at the Hartwall Arena in Helsinki and was filled with expectation as the most recent acquisition from British organization 4Kings would be there making their first debut with the crown. On site were also the favorites Roccat, which ones ended up winning the tournament, a place at Cologne to defent the Finnish flag and plus 2,500€ in their pockets.
Soltec were the surprise of this year, they managed to secure a place in the playoffs stage and surprised everyone when they beat 4Kings by a clear 16-04 in the groupstage. They easily managed to overcome Elukkaveljekset and book a place in the grand final where they met Roccat as they had just beaten 4Kings by two straight maps.
The final match was a great one to watch, although Roccat easily won the first map by 16-7, Soltec put up a great second map, taking it to overtime but losing and thus only placing second, not enough to take part in the WCG 2008 World Final to be held in the German city of Cologne between November 5-9th.
