The esports world is buzzing with excitement as S8UL secures their spot to represent India at the Pokémon Unite World Championship Series (WCS) following a thrilling conclusion to their local Qualifiers. This marks a significant turnaround for S8UL, who had previously faced disappointment at the Pokémon Unite Asia Champions League, where they were eliminated early and missed out on the ACL competition. Now, they are set to compete in the WCS Finals in the USA this August, aiming to make their mark on the global stage.
The India Qualifiers were nothing short of dramatic. S8UL started with a loss, which relegated them to the lower bracket and intensified their journey. Despite this, they showcased their resilience and skill, dominating opponents like Team Dynamis, QML, and familiar rivals Revenant XSpark to secure their qualification. This victory is particularly sweet for S8UL, who also represented India at the 2024 WCS but were unable to compete due to visa issues that prevented their travel to Honolulu.
As S8UL prepares for the WCS 2025 finals, the challenge of cross-border travel into the US remains a concern. However, the team is hopeful to overcome these obstacles and compete without any hitches. Their journey is a testament to their determination and skill, and fans are eagerly anticipating their performance on the world stage.
In other esports news, the PMGO finals for PUBG Mobile are set to take place later this week, adding to the excitement in the gaming community.
