In 2009, WCG Asian Championship was held in Singapore with the championship belonged to StarsBoba Vietnam. At that time, the excellent StarsBoba Vietnam defeated a series of opponents in the region with the guidance of genius captain SoSoon. A year later, StarsBoba defeated Nivarna.my in the final match to protect their throne successfully in WCG AC 2010. Those trophies were the landmarks of the Vietnamese DotA, bringing StarsBoba up to world-class with the respects from powerful DotA communities in China and Europe.

One year has passed with so many changes. Like a beautiful flower, after blooming days is the fading, StarsBoba is only a shadow themselves. The departure of captain SoSoon and the downturn of SB made them is no longer the number one in Vietnam like many years ago. A candle loses nothing by lighting another candle, when StarsBoba is no longer themselves, the other representative of Vietnam is shining brightly.

Emerging to take over the crown that StarsBoba has left behind, Skynet is one of Vietnamese DotA teams has the best record in many tournaments in 2011. Skynet has begun this bumper year with the first prize of Max Intelligent Level tournament in July, followed by the championship of Razer Cyzone Tournament after defeated their local biggest rival – team WAG. After that, Skynet continued their successes when they became the winner in World Cyber Games Vietnam 2011, and won the first prize of Garena ESports Sunday IV tournament. To warm up before attend to WCG AC 2011, Skynet team continued to win the championship at their home Internet cybercafe in the 7th Skynet DotA Championship tournament.

With the series of championship from many DotA tournaments in Vietnam, Skynet fairly represents for Vietnam to compete in the WCG Asian Championship 2011. This year, the excellent representative of China – DK team – will not attend and give their opportunity for EHOME. Moreover, this is really a nice chance for Skynet because besides DK, Nivarna.cn also refused to participate in WCG AC 2011, while the manner of EHOME is not so impressive now.

Orange. ESports from Malaysia – the Skynet's greatest rival – will not appear at WCG AC 2011 and MUFC will take over their role. However, two representatives from Singapore and Philippines – AEON and Mineski (current champion of TGX 11) – will be parts of this tournament. No doubt, those teams will be huge obstacles on the Skynet's path to glory.

For those who do not know about Skynet, this is a chance for fans to witness the intelligent fighting styles and abilities to handle situations of the Vietnamese team who knocked down Nivarna.cn with the shocking score 27-12 three months ago. After this match, Mister Loveen – the Nirvana.cn's boss – was extremely nervous and intended to make a tournament to challenge all the best teams in Vietnam. Even more, the powerful boss of China DotA also claimed that if his team be defeated by any Vietnamese DotA team, Nirvana.cn would be dissolved!

Although there will be no chance to meet Nirvana.cn again this time, Skynet will keep asserting themselves on the global DotA arena. With the members with gosu rank such as Kazu, Nolove, LonelY, Tungcon, and WarCraft III: Frozen Throne prodigy years ago – Blackmoon – Skynet is facing the chance to make Vietnam become the greatest champion of WCG AC by dominating the biggest gaming tournament in Asia three times in a row. It is worth to note that in WCG AC 2011, Skynet will also join competing DotA 2 with other 11 top teams. This will be a great opportunity for Vietnamese representative to access to the gaming blockbuster of the year to come.

Will Skynet follow StarsBoba to honor Vietnam DotA once again with three consecutive championships in WCG AC 2011? Although there are many difficulties ahead, you can sure that the boys from Vietnam will fight with 100% of their capacities because they know they are carrying hopes of millions of gamers in Vietnam.
