Pinoy gamers vie in Ragnarok int’l tourney

Eighteen of the best computer gamers in the country have been chosen to represent the country in the first-ever Ragnarok World Championship (RWC) to be held in Seoul, Korea this weekend.

The Philippine delegation, which represents two of the best guilds in Philippine Ragnarok Online (pRO), was chosen during the RWC Philippine finals held at the Folk Arts Theater last June 19-20.

The guilds – Unholy from the Loki server and Rebirth from the Chaos server – were pitted against five other server champions, namely Armed in Loaded (Odin), Ninja (Iris), Chaos Godz (Sarah), Armageddon (Fenrir), and SteelWolves (People’s Choice), and emerged as winners to claim the title of ultimate pRO champions.

During the international finals, Unholy and Rebirth will challenge the best players from the United States, Japan, Korea, Taiwan-Hong Kong, Indonesia, Singapore-Malaysia, Thailand and China.
