In the conference, I sat beside SYC and Magic Yang, and Zhou ning were setting near of me too, I saw a lot of friends here, like a staff of WCA offline, a player in WCG qualifier, but I forgot this ID. Magic Yang said he will come back and join us for the tournaments. The reporters from NGA were asking some much question, most of the question are about War3.

In the break time, I heard RNG(an eSport squad) kept asking a staff about the details of War3 tournaments, most of the squads I know were here, RNG, IG, WE, RW, most of them were here for War3.

In the question time, Magic Yang stood up and said: Hi, I am Magic Yang.
And the claps sound immediately for this man, to our senior commentator.

I was in tears again. Since 2010, this game was falling down, but we were still sticking with it, and now, we will be back in 2019!
