Statement by Sang-Yeol 'miracle' Lee (Kill e A)
"Upon consultation with my teammates, we have regretfully decided that we will have to withdraw our participation from the tournament.
Due to recent balance changes resulting from the 3.0.9 patch, we believe that it is no longer possible for the Mage and Rogue character classes to remain competitive in a high-level PvP setting.
In addition, our testing has shown that it is now impossible for other classes to compete effectively with the Death Knight.
As the Mage and Rogue remain integral to our teams' strategy, and because we do not have a member prepared for competitive play with the Death Knight class, we have decided to withdraw our participation from all competitions for the time being until these imbalance issues are rectified.
Please accept our sincerest apologies."
