Seanza's Amazing Gaming Event Preview - Introduction

"Foreguarded and unfevered and serene,
Back to the perilous gates of Truth he went—
Back to fierce wisdom and the Orient,
To the Dawn that is, that shall be, and has been:
Previsioned of the madness and the mean,
He stood where Asia, crowned with ravishment,
The curtain of Love's inner shrine had rent,
And after had gone scarred by the Unseen.

There at his touch there was a treasure chest,
And in it was a gleam, but not of gold;
And on it, like a flame, these words were scrolled:
I keep the mintage of Eternity.
Who comes to take one coin may take the rest,
And all may come—but not without the key."
(c) Edwin Arlington Robinson

Although you can't quite deem it to be a true sage event yet, being the first instalment and all of Seanza's Amazing Gaming Event, the expectations for this man-made Call of Duty 4 event are running high.

After the dreaded announcement of Antwerp Esports Festival #3's cancellation, the community suddenly pinned all its hopes for a strong Summer opener on the Holland-based event, where they could see only few of the best teams in Europe. Again a majority dropped out or had no desire to attend in the first place. Whatever the reasons may be, we end up with only five of Europe's best 10.

Is this event another trend changer? Are the days of the traditional top teams over? Has Anexis eSports finally set their siege for the top of Europe in its final gear and will this be the demise of Next Evolution, the former Power Gaming team?

Whilst we eagerly await the games to start, the Group Stage will not have too many games of major interest, it should be another affair of doing & done for the top teams. Most groups have two clear-cut favourites and it’d surprise me as well as most followers if these favourites were not to reach the Playoffs on Sunday.

Why not catch a movie while we're there anyway...
