how do they even come up with these weird ass commercials that you'd never see on regular tv, just on gaming events

I imagine the thought process is something like

1: "k so we need a new commercial to air for our sponsorship of this esport event.."
2: "ok we're pitching to gamers here come on guys brainstorm brainstorm, think like a gamer guys"
3: "well we should probably get some sort of dark voice epic narrative, gamers respond to that shit"
1: "naturally, what else?"
2: "well explosions, lasers etc we need some serious animations or they'll think it's lame"
3: "sure that too! what about a robot?"
1: "yeah a robot is good, and.. hear me out here, what if... we have some sort of animated laser transformer robot?"
3: "WHAT IF... in place of its head is our laptop..?
1: "..."
2: "jackpot!"

2: "oh but we should probably get some hot chick in there as well"

MaNa > DIMAGA

I'm so sad. Poor MaNa, the second time this happens to him in the finals of a major tourney. And he played so fantastic...

They kept saying it was his first sc2 lan win, but i checked tlpd (which btw was already updated with this win... how on the ball are they?:D) and he already had one. 2011 ASUS Spring Cup LAN winner.

i really don't understand why top protoss players still continue to waste gas with this build that works once every ten games.

i'm really disappointed; Mana PvT and PvP are excellent, his PvZ is horrible.


Why are you disappointed? His PvZ improved a LOT. Sometime ago I recall seeing MaNa's playing zerg and knowing he would lose, at least now we have games :D, his confidence is growing it appears.

Most of you guys wouldn't believe how much money 8000 euros is for Ukraine. No wonder he's so happy ! I've always wanted to see Dimaga win a major LAN and here he finally delivered. As for Mana, I think he's young, has a great future in front of him and at this stage it's not so bad to learn how to lose, too. But well done by both of the finalists ^_^
Yeah, whatever

Dimaga should go to Code A soon, please. Grats for amazing and well deserved crown!


He needs to get code S so Nestea can finally get to call him out again

Holy shit look at the players that Dimaga beat in this tournament.

And just to repeat myself I'd like to say that Dimaga is actually the only human on the planet who has ever beaten Nestea in a best of three zvz match. So yes. He is pretty good at Starcraft 2.

He's following the path after MKP and YellOw almost.

Because every other opening sucks in ZvP :/ Zerg freely drones and crushes you with a 200/200 Roach push 12mins into the game

People aren't stupid, they wouldn't be using an inferior build, EVERY Protoss opens Stargate these days, but the units just aren't that strong

everyone should watch stephano - dimaga series, much better -_-, GJ dima, but you still need to work on that zvp...


He won game 1 and threw it... he won game 2 and overextended. He did win all other games nearly untouched. ~ good tournament run from MaNa, but in the finals DIMAGA was the better player.

nono im not hating, im dimaga fan by all means but i find his zvp kinda shaky, he needs to work on that to gain his composure (the same composure he has in zvz and zvt)

Nice reverse kill! After Game 3 he stopped being to passive and held down the protoss ball which also gave him the important scouting he lacked at first

second time this happens to him in the finals of a major tourney.


He lost 2-times after a 2-0 lead - should be nerves. He need to find a way to keep cool in a deciding match.
