OMG! have been given a wildcard straight to the finals of WCG UK. OMG! were given this wildcard as a result of their performance throughout the last year and high place finishes in both UK and foreign LAN events.
In the last year alone omg! have finished 3rd at Games Domain, 3rd at WCG UK Qualifiers, 3rd at Intel Masters, 1st at UKT2 and 2nd at UKT4 not to mention a good run at the recent Euskal CPL Qualifiers in Spain.

They will probably go with ***** (ahem) as 4K, as he's good enough and will fit right in, or go as a merc team and still wipe the floor. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

Not to mention they went spain, and ok, didnt play as well as they could, but least they went and played which probably got the recognition they deserved to get the wildcard

Wildcard means 'An athlete or team selected to compete in a tournament or playoff from among those who did not qualify by meeting the regular requirements.'
I ask again, do OMG! most deserve the wildcard? :P I think maybe WCG should consider rewording it :) [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

omg! and ONE would most probably qualify online, never mind the several lans they could go to
definition of wildcard is - an unknown entity, therefore i think it should of bin given to a clan that perhaps would not of got there by other means, who have nostalgic history or similar
maybe a team like snipers alley, marines or something similar
they may aswell of just been called autoberth's along with 4k [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

i think igames have not looked up the definition of wildcard cos giving omg and one wildcards is just auto berths
this is like giving the number 1 tennis player in the world a wildcard for wimbledon. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

Needless to say, I agree with some people and think that wildcards shouldn't be given to any top seeded clan. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]
