After a fantastic live-streamed event, Felkon managed to defeat Pippington 3-1 in the best-of-5 final to become the first Eternal Challenger Series champion. The event was even attended by the current Everchosen champion Aerocrastic who was defeated by Felkon on his way to the final.
Turin and ItalianSpartacus streamed the near seven hour event with the professionalism and quality I have come to expect from these two streamers. Their commentary is constantly interesting, insightful, funny and engaging with very little noticeable “dead time” barely even any silence across seven hours of streaming. It is just such a fantastic advert for TW:W2 esports to have these two casters doing events.
The matches themselves were also entertaining. Many were 2-1 in their result and showcased a variety of different races. Not only that but the variety within the different army compositions was also there. The commentators were often surprised at the innovation in composition and tactics on display, very much not just a “this counters this approach”. I don’t recall seeing the Dwarves which is always a shame and shall have to be marked in the book of grudges I’m afraid.
Turin will coincide the ECS with the major patches and content updates from CA, so be prepared for another announcement after the upcoming DLC.
Stay tuned to ItalianSpartacus also who has announced another TW:W2 event, the Warpstone Cup.
