A huge thank you to the sponsors, Crucial, Ballistix and Antec for the amazing prize money sponsored to the value of R33 000. Without them, this would not have been possible. And of course, congratulations to the organiser Stephen de Witt. Many thanks for arranging this huge successful tournament. We salute you!

I am extremely happy and inspired, with a massive brand like Crucial/ Ballistix/Antec giving our community the support to grow is really something to get excited about. I hope that this Cup shows the passion and determination of our local gaming community and will lead to many more tournaments like this one.
