5 years after we parted ways with our last World of Warcraft team, we are happy to announce our return to a scene that was once dear and near to our hearts. During all those years Blizzard has continued to support the competitive side of the game by hosting an annual Arena World Championship at BlizzCon and 2015 is no exception. After months of intense qualifiers, the dust has settled and the European champions, formerly known as Solari Gaming Blue, will wear the SK Gaming colours at Anaheim!

The Team's Statement
"We are proud to represent SK Gaming at this year's BlizzCon. We are the first WoW team they pick up in many years, and we think we deserve a chance. Three of the four players in our team have already attended BlizzCon, and we have attended several other tournaments in the last years. Our fourth man recently joined the professional WoW scene and together with him we won the European Championship 2015, so we are looking forward to achieving even more in the future!"
