June “Lyn” Park ensures himself a place in Blizzcon 2008 after a inspired comeback against Jae Ho “Moon” Jang, while a following defeat to Sung Sik “ReMinD” Kim rules him out of this year’s global finals.Top three finishers in the two days’ Asian qualifier held in Seoul, Korea will acquire qualification to the the global finals at this year’s BlizzCon, which will take place October 10-11 at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, California.
The second place of invitational ladder of Kalimdor, Lyn began his march to Anaheim with a quarter-finals meeting with Meet Your Makers player Jung Ki 'Susiria' Oh. Match-up of Orc versus Undead has always been Lyn’s specialty, albeit a loss to his Undead team-mate Seo Woo 'ReiGn' Kang dismissed his hope of ESWC title four days ago.
He finished off his opponent with two straight wins and awaited his eventual semi-finals opponent Moon, who progressed with a 2-1 defeat of Jin Woo 'WinNers' Kim of mTw. Moon already had one of his feet in Anaheim after he took the lead after 20 minutes, but the SK Gaming player pulled off a magnificent comeback afterwards and squeezed a berth for the finals.
The ESWC Masters and BWI double champion then met another SK player, ReMinD in the lower bracket semi-finals, who earlier disposed of WCG 2008 Korea representative, Hyo Sub 'FoCuS' Eom. The Blizzcon holder is one of few players who have a superior win ratio against Moon, and the outcome of this encounter happened to be the same as previous occasions. A 2-0 win over Moon sent ReMinD to the lower bracket final against Susiria and he still has a fight on his hands to qualify there, while the Player of the Year could all but pursue another title he has never won.
The European qualifier take place September 6 to 7 in Madrid, Spain will send another three participants to Blizzcon 2008, while two North Americans will in the meantime make a trip through the American qualifier held in Boston, Massachusetts.
Update:
With a 2-0 defeat of Susiria in lower bracket final, ReMinD has qualified for Blizzcon 2008 together with Lyn and Hyeong Ju 'Check' Lee.

There is no one in America or Europe you would expect to beat those players more than they lose.
