The competition is highly prestigious and world-class in all aspects. The National players are showing off the whole world that they do well and are confident in representing their own country.
There were a total of 310 Participants from 35 Nations. There were 23 players in the Tekken 7 tournament representing 23 countries including our very own Andreij “Doujin” Albar, Philippines. who placed 6th overall in the 2017 Tekken 7 World Tour in the Asia Pacific Region.
One remarkable moment of the event was the parade & presentation of each country of their National Players bearing their National Flags. It was an awesome moment happening to see those young boys, proud and shining with their National flags, that even without speaking a word, in their hearts, they are telling the whole world that all of them are the best of the best and they will perform to the top of their ability for their country.
It was the first time for me to see Andreij as a flag bearer in an International event and my heart was so delighted as it happens. It was totally different from all the other local and International tournaments that I've ever seen that Andreij already participated in the past. In my heart, I knew Andreij has a mission, and that is to inspire the Youth of our nation. God's message is clearer for me to understand that He made it for Doujin to be there and be happy to represent the Philippines in the 9th IeSF World Championship.

The third day of the 9th Esports World Championship was the highlight for Tekken 7 that it took the center stage starting with the quarterfinals, wherein, eight(8) countries out of the twenty-three that joined the tournament remains.

Doujin continued his unstoppable streak at the start of the set with 9 straight rounds, 3 matches over Kor_nnova while using Eddy. Switching between characters including Kazumi and Shaheen, Kor_nnova finally started getting results by picking Dragunov, neutralizing the evasive relax stance with razer (d+2) and taking two straight rounds despite Doujin making a switch to Kazumi. However, Doujin starts picking up the pace with his Kazumi and started fighting back getting three consecutive close matches for the 5-2 finish in the semifinals.
This is one of my favorite match, the 1st time I saw Doujin playing with awesome Tomas a New Zealander with Korean blood and origin. We find him smart and cool to be around. He knows how to read Korean characters and he even speaks well in the Korean language. We first met him at the hotel and we dine together in one long table with other eSportsman for our 1st dinner in Korea.

Blessed are they who have the gift of making friends, for it is one of God's best gifts. It involves many things, but above all, the power of going out of one's self, and appreciating whatever is nice and loving in another.
