Due to undisclosed circumstances, Felipe " " Zuñiga will be unable to attend IEM Katowice on January 18th-20th.



Replacing him (based on North American Qualifier results) will be Kevin " " Bentz. Siphonn will be taking KiLLeR's spot in Group B at the tournament where he will compete against Acer.Bly, , and as well as the Open Bracket Qualifiers seeded into the group.



He will also be the only representation in the tournament from the United States, the other North American Qualifier spots belonging to his teammate Man Hyeok " " Jo, and Cho Myung " " Hwan.



I spoke to Siphonn briefly about his last-minute replacement of KiLLeR and his trip to Poland.

and then to in Stage 3 of the Katowice American Qualifiers, I was pretty bummed out. All the games I lost were close, and I knew it would have been a sick opportunity to go to Europe (for my first time) to compete in a StarCraft tournament. When I found out I would actually have the chance to go, I was ecstatic and couldn't turn down the opportunity. I am heading into Group B with PartinG, Bly, and Lucifron. As tough as a group it is, I'm not going to let myself go into it having doubts about winning, and I am going to be 100% confident in my ability. There is no reason to doubt yourself, no matter the obstacle that stands in front of you. I am going to go to Poland, represent Clarity, represent USA, AND BRING BACK THAT CHAMPIONSHIP!...... but seriously, I won't let myself get last."
