　　Poor Puppey. No one told him that being an international gaming celebrity involved bears. Fuzzy, trussed-up bears made to perform on stage for Techlabs Cup 2013 Grand Finals's award ceremony. If you think I'm kidding, here's the incriminating video.

　　Yup. Bear. Not a grizzly bear, thank god but a bear, nonetheless. There's something vaguely phantasmagorical about the whole clip and a lot to be said about implicated animal cruelty. The critter appears rather pointedly unhappy with being on stage. In the spotlight. With weird, furless animals surrounding it. Actually, I can't tell if Puppey or the bear looks more discomfited by the whole ordeal.That said, I suppose that's one way of ending the festivities held in Moscow last weekend. Asides from being surprised by a bear, Na'vi also went home with the $12, 500 first prize.

　　We'll be reaching out to Na'vi for comment on whether wildlife should be a staple at such events. (Because lolz.)
