Thailand pulled off an historic win over South Korea making them back-to-back World Champions for 2 years in a row! The defending champions literally bulldozed all of their opponents and showcased how good they were by constantly changing their tactics depending on their opponent. The finals between Thailand and Korea really proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that they were strong contenders deserving of slots in the finals. I don’t know if I’m calling this right but I think the main difference for the fight was when Thailand used the Gypsy. Apparently Korea had low VIT characters and they almost often found key players stunned which disrupted the over-all flow of their teamwork.
Details and results of the other matches after the jump.
At the end of the day, Team Thailand came out victorious over Korea with a 3-2 record. This is the second time in history that Thailand has become world champion and Korea reached 2nd place. It’s really sad to note that the Philippines earlier bowed out to Indonesia in a battle for the third. However, you can’t help but still be proud of Team Philippines given the effort they’ve given to reach where they are now. Remember that they are still the 4th best in the world, and that they are still your back-to-back Ragnarok Philippine Champions.
There is nothing to be ashamed of and I’m sure that it will only be a matter of weeks before these guys get back on their feet and roaring in-game during the weekly sieges and PVP.
Thank you Team Philippines for giving it your all! We will always be proud of what you’ve accomplished. To Thailand, Korea, and Indonesia – Congratulations!

Thank you pala sa 3x xp sa Valhalla. Btw, any news about the rewards system? Sira pa rin kasi. And the horrible lag during sieges sa Valhalla? May pag-asa pa bang mawala?

The nail on the coffin for Team Philippines in the battle for third was when their Champ got frozen away from the rest of the party. The sad thing was Team Philippines had the upper hand when they managed to kill the Indonesian Professor. I was sure that the next thing they would do was the “Crawling Land Protector” tactic but the Philippine Champ unluckily caught the tail end of a Storm Gust and got knocked away from the rest of his team. After that the Indonesian champ just walked over to the Philippine Champ with no one to stop him and with one Asura Strike, hammered that nail in deep. He took Team Philippine’s killing power down to practically nothing.
