US Ragnarok Team Places in Top 5 in Ragnarok Online World Competition

MARINA DEL REY, Calif. - August 10, 2004 - Team Denuo Convena, second place winner of the U.S. Ragnarok Championships, handed stunning defeats to some of the world's top teams at the Ragnarok World Championships (RWC), ultimately placing fifth. Several of the Asian guilds have been playing together for the past three years, while the U.S. teams had less than six months to prepare. With relatively green teams, both U.S. guilds were expected to be eliminated in the first round. The final results of the competition proved the predictions about the U.S. teams to be wrong.
