Japan

There, this team of French All-Stars won its group over Overtime of Belgium and Ninplayers, then defeated Ämpäri Gang of Finland—also consisting of members of Kraken Paradise and Team Olive, and finally dethroned Europe's defending champions, BackSquids to win both the championship and the right to represent Europe in the World Championship.
