BCON Clash – Represent your city!
We proudly present: The BCON Clash!
A tournament by BarCrafts for BarCrafts. The international BarCraft network, “BarCraft-Connect” (short: BCON; http://www.barcraft-connect.net) is launching this tournament, so friends of watching StarCraft II tournaments can have a go in a tournament themselves – and fight for the honor of their city. Participating BarCrafts each need to decide on a Champion to represent their BarCraft. How they make that decision is up to each individual organizer.
The big showdown of the BCON Clash is most likely to go down in June/July. BarCrafts will be organized for this tournament and each champion will compete on-site of their respective city-BarCraft. It will be streamed, casted and everything else that can be done with such an event! There are ongoing negotiations with various community Casters, primarily from the German scene. Details about the stream, and most importantly about the prizes/prizepool will be announced by the BCON soon.

DotA 2 PubStomp #1: Raidcall EMS One – Photos & Résumé
DotA 2 may be smaller than SC2 or LoL but the Community is still able to fill a Bar with people, laughter and an overall awesome atmosphere.
About 40 visitors showed up at Cologne’s first DotA 2 PubStomp for the finals of Raidcall EMS One. We expected a few more but we were only able to show the final game of the tournament (which the ESL had also changed from BO5 to BO3) – as a consequence the tournament was done already a few hours after the PubStomp had started. This might have led to some people not showin up at all :/
Nonetheless the PubStomp was great and all visitors (as well as the bar owner and us^^) were really content with how it went down. It won’t be the last event of its kind!
Did someone just say “DotA Cocktails”?
For our first DotA 2 PubStomp coming Sunday we spared neither trouble nor expense and created some unique DotA-Cocktails. They don’t just look and taste awesome – they also come with the handy feature to get you wasted in no time :D
We can’t present you the SPELL STEAL we’ll serve because it doesn’t stay the same: If you order one you’ll get the same Cocktail the last person before you ordered ;)
Man, I can’t wait till Sunday :D
Next stop: DotA 2!
WE’RE GOING TO DO A “BARCRAFT” AKA “PubStomp” FOR DOTA 2!!!
Many know my dream of an enclosing Gaming-Community in Cologne and we already have SC2-folks playing LoL and vice versa. Almost noone plays just “the one game” and we also want the DotA-Community to participate in the movement of eSports-Public Viewing – so we’re going to try this! Ofc you’re also welcome if you’re not into DotA (yet), it will be an awesome meeting of gamers anyways!
IF YOU’RE INTO DOTA AND WANT MORE OF THESE – ADVERTISE IT, COME OVER (PREFERABLY WITH SOME FRIENDS) AND HAVE A GOOD TIME!!!
WHEN: April 21st, starting around 5 pm
WHERE: Coellner Bar, Ubierring 22, 50678 Köln (next to tram station “Chlodwigplatz”)
WHAT: RaidCall EMS One Finals.
So far, qualified are Mousesports, Na’Vi, No Tidehunter and Fnatic.EU and others…
The tournament will be casted by TobiWan and Kawa.
- FREE ENTRY (but you have to be at least 18 yrs old)
- FOOD is not sold in the Bar itsef but can be bought in many places around or even ordered directly to the pub.
- PARKING is free in the area but parking spaces are rare

HotS Launch Party – Résumé & Photos
WOW! Our Heart of the Swarm Launch Party was the biggest thing since we’re organizing BarCrafts in Cologne.
90 Nerds and Nerdettes gathered in the Coellner Bar to drink, laugh and celebrate! The Show Blizzard presented on stream was extremely entertaining and in some party hilariously funny!
At the end, tons of prizes were raffled among the visitors since we had J!NX, Blizzard and Razer Germany as sponsors. Thank you very much for your great support!!!
Without a “real” photographer our few photos only show a small amount of the great atmosphere and all the awesome moments that happened this evening. Still – there are some real highlights! Thanks to all our visitors for making this evening unforgettable! I hope we meet again on another occasion :)
