Remember the StarsWar we chased together in those years? Remember the great races that StarsWar brought us in those years? Brushing away the dust of time, in the summer of 2023, StarsWar, which has been away for ten years, officially announced the restart.

It is reported that the total prize money of the StarsWar10 veteran exhibition competition is as high as 200,000 yuan.
Old friends from the past gather together to look back and recount the past. On this passionate summer day, let's witness the legendary showdown again!
Youth rises again, blood restarts
From the beginning of StarsWar1 in 2005 to the realization of the dream of StarsWar7 JN, countless wonderful Warcraft competitions were born during this period, leaving too many good memories for Warcraft fans. After 10 years of hiatus, StarsWar is finally reborn in the summer of 2023. Ten years is enough time for a boy to grow into a man, but when our group of Warcraft old boys saw the familiar events and players returning, they suddenly felt that youth had returned.
The StarsWar10 will be divided into two parts: the popular event and the veteran exhibition competition, of which the popular event will be composed of online group stage, knockout round and offline finals, and the veteran exhibition competition will invite 8 Warcraft veteran stars to participate, and the specific invitation list will be announced later.
StarsWar10 online tournament registration will be open to all Warcraft players, everyone is welcome to register (see below for details), and the champions and runners-up of the online qualifiers will advance to the offline finals.
Warcraft event, gathering in Xi'an
The city of Xi'an has a special significance for Warcraft and even Chinese esports, whether it is WE club, or StarsWar, WCG and other e-sports events, they have left their own imprints in this thirteen ancient capitals.
In fact, StarsWar3 in 2006 took place in Xi'an. At that time, the Chinese team, led by Sky, suhO and Fly, beat the South Korean team and the European team to win the championship. Seventeen years later, StarsWar was held in Xi'an again, and I don't know what kind of wonderful performance the Warcraft masters will bring us this time.
It is worth mentioning that StarsWar10 is also 19 months after the Golden Finals in January 2022, and the Chinese region has once again held Warcraft offline competitions. Blessed are War3 viewers!
