but massive damage compared to other classes. The renewal includes 3 new deadly
skills with improved visual effects, where the most significant feature is
Berserker mode that activates increased attack speed and life-stealing from
enemies upon successful hits.
Along with the update, C9 event will be running concurrently which will give
attractive prizes to players who reach level 50 with the renewed Berserker
class. Also, limited edition gear for Berserker can only be purchased during
this promotion period. There will also be many other upcoming events
subsequently.
Meanwhile, the top 4 teams have been determined to compete in the semi-finals
for the C9 Europe Championship which will be held at "Gamescom 2012" Germany on
August 18th. The winning team of the Europe tournament will win $10,000 in cash,
and qualify for C9 World Championship later held in November. There the winning
teams that represent Europe, the Americas, and Asia will all compete to become
the World Champion.

interest on the highly anticipated and renewed Berserker class.? He also said,
?We hope C9 players around the world will show more anticipation and interest
