Asus Spring 2008 can’t be said to be very exciting and breathtaking as except
GG.Xyligan,
GG.Titan and
GG.Rob there were few really good players who could take some prize places. Also the absence of
mouz.Happy and
GG.HoT made the tournament less attractive to watch, because these players could really pour oil on the flames. Happy said that he didn’t like Russian tournaments’ organization, while GG.HoT the best Europe player due to Samsung European Championship is just in bad shape and that’s why he refused to play.

There were no surprises in group stage and all the decent players manage to play-offs. On top of all, we can speak about Russian famous wc3 player Andrey “
wicked.Deadman” Sobolev’s comeback, who started training and now could “bite” again. But, obviously, it’s not his old shape and at that moment he can’t oppose anything to such young talents as dmz.Twin'à and iP.Roll, who dropped Deadman from the tournament. Meanwhile
srs.Neytpoh was a real underdog. He surprised everyone by dropping out a lot of well-known and skilled players, despite training only 1-2 hours a day.
The first to face srs.Neytpoh was GG.Xyligan, who was easily defeated on humans map Lost Temple. That’s how top1 Russian player due to WCG
fails for the second time in a row (The previous one was at KODE 5). However, it wasn’t all for Gravitas Gaming. Their next player GG.Robb who had just defeated the best elf-players in NGL-One clanwar against Wicked Sports lost to srs.Neytpoh.
And as it seemed there were only one player left of Gravitas Gaming roster to defeat and take the first place. Neytpoh was already in high spirits and was eager to win but Oleg "Titan" Kuptsov was there to take only the first prize. And so the battle began between these two wc3 monsters. Despite all the advantages that had Neytpoh, GG.Titan won the final for which he had been training 10 hours a day for a long time. On such a positive note Asus Spring 2008 Warcraft 3 cup ended.
