The world of esports is buzzing with excitement as S8UL, a prominent team from India, has earned their spot to represent their country at the Pokémon Unite World Championship Series (WCS). This achievement comes on the heels of a challenging journey, particularly after their underwhelming performance at the Pokémon Unite Asia Champions League, which saw them exit the competition prematurely.
S8UL's path to the WCS was fraught with tension and drama. Starting with a loss in their opening match at the India Qualifiers, the team was pushed into the lower bracket, making their climb to the top even more arduous. However, their determination shone through as they triumphed over formidable opponents like Team Dynamis, QML, and Revenant XSpark, ultimately securing their qualification for the WCS finals set to take place in the USA this August.
This success isn't new for S8UL, who also represented India at the 2024 WCS. Unfortunately, they were unable to participate due to visa issues that prevented their travel to Honolulu. With cross-border travel to the US still presenting challenges, the team remains cautious but hopeful that they will be able to compete without any hitches at the WCS 2025 finals.
As the esports community gears up for the PMGO finals in PUBG Mobile later this week, the anticipation for Pokémon Unite's WCS is equally palpable.
