sg 1v5 will be representing Singapore in the World Cyber Gamers: Grand Final after defeating sg Flash eSports in TGX Singapore 2012.


1v5 in action during TGX Singapore 2012


1v5 consists of three sg Zenith members sg Daryl 'iceiceice' Koh, sg Wai Hong 'xy-' Toh, and sg Nicholas 'xFreedom' Lim. The lineup is complete along with sg Patrik 'LuX' Kwan and sg Alan 'alanter' Ter, who are both well known players in the scene. The team were dominant throughout the competition and utilised unorthodox picks such as Spectre and Slardar.

For their win, 1v5 earned $2,000 SGD along with qualification for both WCG: Grand Final and ACG Singapore National Finals.

Zenith was unable to participate with their full lineup as WCG rules disallow se Jonathan 'Loda' Berg from participating with the team, and sg Benedict 'hyhy' Lim was absent from the lineup after stating his desire to possibly retire after The International. It is unclear if hyhy has made a final decision and what the future holds for Zenith.

Zenith released the following statement:

Looks like we will have Zenith representation at the WCG Grand Finals in China! The team comprising of iceiceice, xy-, xfreedom, LuX and alanter are now waiting for the prize presentation after beating flash eSports in the finals of the WCG Singapore Qualifiers.


WCG: Grand Final will take place from November 29th to December 2nd in China. Stay tuned as we brings you more updates.

The reason Loda moved to Singapore was his girlfriend, not Zenith--he's there to stay. hyhy has mandatory military service so he's stepping back from dota, at least for the time being. But they can pick up another and keep playing, and who knows, when hyhy is finished with active duty he might have the itch again.

WCG with it's retarded rules. Worst tournament at the moment.

So sad that this was once the pinnacle of e-sports, compared to every other tournament now, it's a joke.

TI3CHAMP is the better name though, they should have used that instead of 1v5!

The VODs are there, but they are probably mixed in together with many hours of replays of other games since this was a multi-game event that spawned three days.

Although I applaud their skill I really dislike their attitude, from watching ice3's stream you can really tell, ice3 and lux (at least) are the epitomy of Singaporean 'lansi'.
