GC Busan Rising STar won against Jin Air Green Wings by 2-0 in the League of Legends KeSPA Cup Round 1 on December 24th. It seemed at first Jin Air had an advantage over GC Busan when they had taken enemy Lucian in the bot lane, although GC Busan managed to catch up by taking the Rift Herald and winning the team fights. GC Busan then took the Baron Nashor and marched on to destroy enemy Nexus, defeating Jin Air Green Wings. Following is the post-match interview with Moo from GC Busan Rising Star. Did you expect to win against Jin Air Green Wings today? Yes, I expected we would obviously win by 2-0 even before coming to the stadium. It was impressive how you carry with Ezreal, just like you did in the last match as well as the 1st set today.

It’s been five days since Activision-Blizzard made the announcement that the Heroes of the Storm Global Championship (HGC) circuit would be discontinued and developers from the title moved to other, unannounced projects. Although “announcement” is too generous a word. Maybe “slap-in-the-face” is more appropriate considering the disingenuous manner the message was delivered, via an unfeeling press release. The content of the statement itself felt more corporate than personable. To many, it was insulting.
