The Pokémon Unite World Championship Series (WCS) is gaining momentum as S8UL secure their spot to represent India on the global stage. After a tough showing in the Asia Champions League, where they were eliminated early and failed to qualify for the ACL, the team has made a powerful comeback through the local qualifiers.
This August, S8UL will travel to the United States to compete in the WCS Finals—an opportunity to redeem themselves after missing out on the 2024 event due to visa complications. Their journey through the India Qualifiers was anything but easy. A loss in their opening match forced them into the lower bracket, yet they fought their way back with dominant wins over Team Dynamis, QML, and Revenant XSpark.
A Redemption Arc
While this level of success may seem surprising to some, S8UL has previously represented India at the 2024 WCS. Unfortunately, that appearance was cut short when the team couldn't obtain the necessary visas in time for the event in Honolulu. With international travel still presenting challenges, especially to the U.S., there's no doubt this concern lingers. However, fans are hopeful that nothing will stand in the way of S8UL competing this year in full force.
