Yoonseul vs. Hajesan: The clash of the regional titans

The server migration on the 3rd has absolutely shaken up the roster. The most eye-catching development is in the Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau (THM) region, where top-tier players previously scattered across various servers have consolidated into Hajesan servers 1, 2, and 3. The result? A massive spike in average combat power and a sudden influx of activity that has breathed new life into these servers.

Why the sudden move? It’s almost certainly down to integrated content matchmaking. The THM region had a rough run recently against the Korean region in events like the Total War, Frosty Cliff, Alliance Raid, and Black Night Archipelago. They are clearly looking to consolidate their strength to claw back some respectability and climb the rankings. It looks like a genuine threat to the Korean region.

And now, Hajesan is set to square off against the Korean Yoonseul group in the Black Night Archipelago. Yoonseul is currently the undisputed heavy hitter of the Korean region. Led by the overall server combat power champion, the Paladin 'Pa-Ak-Jil' (197,610 CP), and backed by a formidable roster of high-rankers, they have been dominating every integrated field content available.

The smart money is on Yoonseul to control the boss spawns. The gap in top-tier combat power is simply too wide to ignore. Furthermore, the average CP of the top 20 rankers in Yoonseul stands at 156,028, compared to 148,750 for Hajesan—a difference of roughly 7,000. With Yoonseul also holding the numerical advantage, it is hard to see them losing their grip on the Black Night Archipelago bosses. We shall see if they can maintain their momentum.

Let’s take a peek at the top brass. For Yoonseul, we have Paladin 'Pa-Ak-Jil' (197,601 CP), Paladin 'Mi-Chin-Ja' (198,090 CP), Stormcaster 'Mello-Ga-Che-Jil' (176,116 CP), Priest 'Mi-Chin-Gye' (170,915 CP), and Warrior 'Bul-Do-Jeo-v' (170,466 CP). Over in the Hajesan camp, we see Stormcaster '维加' (192,662 CP), Priest '月魁' (187,493 CP), Stormcaster '瀚墨' (185,862 CP), Fighter '神无忌' (176,466 CP), and Archer '大东' (169,991 CP).
