ImageNa`Vi will miss the BEAT IT finals in Beijing China and have been replaced by the Taiwanese side UMX.



IEM IV World Champions UA Natus Vincere will miss the BEAT IT finals and have been replaced by Ultimax Gaming . HLTV.org are carrying the story whereby the organizers confirmed the switch. Na`Vi's players apparently wanted some rest after their packed Summer tournament schedule.

BEAT IT will take place from September 4th to 6th in Beijing, China.

BEAT IT participants:
SE fnatic
US compLexity
US Evil Geniuses
KR WeMade FOX
AU Immunity
SE Lions swe
CN TyLoo
CN espirit
IN ATE-Gaming
VN 1st. VN-Gaming
TH NearlyGod
TW Ultimax Gaming

UMX are best known for unexpectedly placing second at the IEM IV Asian Finals, though they were unable to attend the World Championship. At that finals no Chinese teams were in attendance and so many expected WeMade FOX and TitaNs to be the teams who advanced. As it played out a victory by immunity over TitaNs meant the Singaporean team met WeMade FOX in the semi-finals while the Australians played UMX in the other semi-final. UMX managed to thrash immunity in two maps straight and reach the final, where they played the South Koreans of WeMade.
