The Virtual-Lan#13 is a LAN organized from October 24th to 26th at  La Ferté Macé (61) in the West-North of France. This 250 slots LAN will host 4 tournaments : League of Legends, Counter-Strike: GO, Minecraft HG and of course the TrackMania²Stadium : DIRT tournament. The Mania-Actu staff made you a little preview with the favorites and the potential outsiders for the win !

VL#13 — The Favorites

 Nicolas "NICO" D. — Recently winner of the Gamers-Assembly 2k14, 2nd and 3rd of the past Virtual-Lan #10 & #11, Nico may be the favorite player if we look his LAN palmares (cause yes he also won the Kaolan#9 two years ago). His experience on LANs and on important matchs (3 times World Champion with French Dirt Team) show us that he know how to manage the pressure! He's the player to stop !

 Gwenael "NEO" A. — This player from  VirtReal team never stopped to progress since two years : World Champion with France in 2013, he played for the first time in LAN on the Virtual-Lan#11 ... and he won! Btw he also finished 3rd of Gamers-Assembly 2k14, result which is showing us that he's one of the main favorite for the win !

 Valerian "PAPOU" R. — Remind you, the young  TeaM-Fox's player was the revelation of the Virtual-Lan#11: He managed to go in the LB Final being an unknown player. One year later, after some really nice online results and a selection in French Dirt Team, he's back motivated as hell for his second offline event !

 Alban "ALBAN" B. — Also member of  VirtReal team, Alban may be the player with the best results on LANs after Nico, he finished 3rd of the Kaolan#9, 1st and 2nd on Virtual-Lan #10 & #11 but finished 5th of the GA 2k14 in april, a result which should motivate him to comeback at his best level for this offline event ! World Champion with France two times, he also got a nice experience on important wars !

VL#13 — The Outsiders

When we write this article, 21 players (on 24 possible) are registered, some ones could do nice results and why not go in the Grand Final ! In the outsiders we could find  Romain "GUILEBOOM" B. from  Spam team. Since few months he is improving and does some nice results, like recently on ESL Dirt PremierShips finishing 1st with VirtReal, and he has a little offline experience with his participation on VL#11.  Richard "KANSAKI" A. from  TeaM-Fox could also be a nice outsider! Since he changed his computer and devices, this experimented player cameback at his best level and is motivated to do better results than on his previous LANs.  Greg "YOSHI" M. from  Play5 team is also a nice player with the skill to go, why not, in final. His recent results are only some podiums in solo ESL cups but he's able to create the surprise! The two last outsiders we see would be  Tjorven "RAGHA" D &  Quenttin "DEVIL" G. The first one is actually playing for  TeaM-Fox. He's known to be a nice and regular overall player (playing also on Tech), and won a TM LAN tournament in the Belgian LANtastic#2 this year. The second one is actually playing for  VirtReal team. He's a bit innactive online but he's everytime there on LANs. With some good results in his previous participations, he got the experience to do something !
