<description><![CDATA[Third tournament from WarCraft Heroes League offers 100 Dollars US, a Razer mouse and a headset. Packed action next weekend to be expected.

Warcraft Heroes League (WHL) has presented us with a new tournament to play in. It's the 3rd tournament they have hosted and many promising names have already joined such as TechnoBoy and HolyHuman. 

The tournament will be held on on Saturday the 17th of May at 12am EST, 18:00 CET. The number of people participating will either be 64 or 128 depending on the number of people who registered. However, there are already 133 people who have registered for this event. 

Prize will be given to the 1st and possibly the 2nd place. It looks very promising for the up and coming players since the tournament consists mainly of players who are not at the top of the War3 scene.

Maps for this tournament will be Echo Isles, Twisted Meadows, Terenas Stand Turtle Rock, Secret Valley, Gnoll Wood, Lost Temple, these are pretty much standard maps...]]></description>

<category>WarCraft 3 News</category>
<pubDate>Wed, 07 May 2008 20:21:43 +0200</pubDate>
<description><![CDATA[A new map has been introduced to next season's WC3L mappool. The map is known as "Ancient Isle" and recently ended up 2nd in Blizzard's map contest. This should add quite a fresh touch to the next season.

In Blizzard's map contest, Adam "tehscourge" Wilk entered with his creation called "Ancient Isle". The map ended up top 2 and has caught the attention of the WC3L admins who have decided to use it in the next season. The map has a rather narrow passage in the middle with a tavern. There are two expansion spots guarded by a tough pack of Gnolls. Since they're a fair distance from the main bases, expanding will be difficult. Apart from that there are two Goblin Merchants, two Mercenary Camps and no fountains what so ever.

The introduction of this map will, hopefully, prove to be a success. No greater abuses or flaws have yet been found so it seems to...]]></description>

 shared his feelings about StarCraft 2 and he is starting to like how it is coming along:

It’s a work in progress. I think they are constantly improving. They are definitely moving in the right direction with it. I can’t help but to love seeing the units that I have obsessed over for 10 years look crisper and more fascinating.

As a very active member of the US StarCraft scene he highlighted some of the events that are upcoming.

USA has the US Open coming up in the end of May so I will be going to NY to compete with Artosis, Skew, Nyoken and hopefully do myself proud there. I’m also trying to qualify for USA WCG (if I don’t in NY) and I am already going to the Pan...]]></description>
