by on December 9, 2014
 

This past weekend saw the final Intel Extreme Masters event of the year take place in San Jose, where the biggest and best League of Legends and Star Craft II players battled it out for a share of the prize pool.

The League of Legends tournament saw Cloud 9 beat paiN Gaming and Alliance on their way to the final while there opponents Unicorns of Love emerged victorious over Lyon Gaming and Team SoloMid to reach the final. Cloud 9 were somewhat dominant in the final taking the best of 5 series 3-0.

The StarCraft II event was an all Korean final, which was no surprise as the only non-Korean player was Snute who was knocked out in the first round! HerO and Rain were the two who made it to the final, with HerO eventually taking the best of 7 series 4-3.

You can see loads of video content from the event over on the IEM website.

eSports! I joined God is a Geek all the way back in September 2013 and since then have spent most of my time on Dota 2, and occasionally posting the odd review, news article or totally wrong predictions for The International. When I am not playing Dota I can probably be seen watching some kind of strange eSport or begging for more Twitter followers (@MikeStubbsy if you are interested). Aside from GiaG I am a computing student, football coach and major Apple fanboy.
