[edit] Results
[edit] Lore
- During WNS#9 vs Clan Prime, a player named GTLBaby logged onto the official channel and pretended to be MarineKingPrime for the entire event. This resulted in the Prime players shouting "GTLBaby fighting!!!!" at the start of some of the later games.
- vVvRuff has gotten two all kills and is the only member of vVv thus far to achieve an all kill during WNS, although vVvTime has reverse-all-killed twice, vVvHasuu has reverse all-killed once, and vVvTitan has reverse all-killed once as well. Both times the event finished early and vVv put on showmatches of vVv against vVv after the main clan matches.
- During WNS#19 vs Infinity Seven, CrazymoviNG did not get to play due to schedule issues with GSL qualifiers.
- During WNS#15 vVvRuFF and GoSuHwangSin exchanged heated words at the end of the match, with RuFF calling HwangSin out. After causing such a stir, GoSu was brought back on for WNS#16, however, RuFF failed to show as the starter, so they never played. Finally, in WNS#22, RuFF and HwangSin played in Game 5 with the game ultimately going to HwangSin. RuFF blames the loss on lag, as he made a few errors with hellion control that caused his harass to fail to do significant damage during the game.
