The trio who participated in eStars 2008, return in 2009 to represent Team East. Meanwhile in Team West one of the three Germans to receive high votes in the public poll makes the cut.Leon 'TastyLeon' Hoge of mTw finished top of the Team West public vote but it is his fellow countryman and WC3L runner-up Dennis 'HasuObs' Schneider who makes it into the final three for Team West. He will join Manuel 'GrubbY' Schenkhuizen, who also participated last year, as well as the ESWC Masters of Cheonan winner Pedro 'LucifroN' Moreno Durán.
For Team East SK Gaming's June 'Lyn' Park took third place in the final decision (30% record, 20% estars organisation, 50% public vote) due to his 1st place at ESWC Masters of Athens and second at ESWC Masters of Cheonan, despite only placing 7th in the public vote. He will fight alongside another Korean, Jae Ho 'Moon' Jang, and two-times WCG winner Xiaofeng 'Sky' Li. For Sky it is the second season he finishes first in the online vote as well the final decision.
One would think the Team East line-up would be unstoppable but the same line-up suffered a 3-1 defeat to Team West last year, which consisted of Grubby, Mykhaylo 'HoT' Novopashyn and Kim 'SaSe' Hammar. e-stars Seoul 2009 will be held from July 24 to July 26 at Seoul Trade Exhibition & Convention centre.

Anyway... gl West!!! :D
however if grubby is in form and if lucifron plays as well as he has lately it could be very close, and ofc if hasu chooses to dominate ;D
IS IT THAT HARD OMG
I think team east has the biggest chance to win but im rooting for team west :D
+DC or HoT
And it's 1 German out of 3, they dumped the public vote enough.
To qualify my comment I will state that HasuObs's role in the recent WC3L Season XV Finals [for Mousesports] was to play in two versus two, and he failed to qualify for the NGL One solo league. He lost in the first round to Satiini (0:2) then beat HardGamer (2:0) and lost to YanE (1:2) in the loser-bracket qualifier.
He is a steady player but simply not good enough to play against the likes of Lyn, Moon and Sky in one versus one.
GL TEAM EAST
