nice trolling for aristeo :DD
|
well Xaris didn't fixed it...
Still. Why no Happy??
I know most pros have him totally figured out but he still have solid mechanics.
At first l was thinking that Empire is throwing away game 1 but after looking at TLPD i noticed that Siw is on terran killing spree.
Still Thorzain is definitely a favorite but there could be a upset.
Empire is aiming at 1-2 after the first 3sets and hope for Aristeo to win vs MaNa.
Overall it looks like Empire is preparing to snipe Mouz

even nicknames of russian players are hard :D

Damn, beastyQT and morrow play eachother ALOT
|
for christs sake i cant find the final standings of the teams anywhere
the homepage really is a mess
is there a liquipedia page for this?
|
I can see Kas beating HasuObs, but BeastyQT will have to overcome morrow's ZvT while morrow likely knows pretty much all of beasty's timings. Either 3-1 to mouz or a 3-2 with a very close ace match.

this will be the tough match with 2 best european players team imo
|
Mouz 3-1 with Kas being the only one to win for Empire.
|
Beastyqt vs morrow rematch from EG master cup is gonna be fun.
The day when 20 Ghost died in one fungal. ^_^
|
I think Mouz will win this. Will be interesting to see how the russian players that I havnt seen yet will fare.
|
siw vs thorzain
beasty vs morrow
kas vs hasuobs
artiesto vs mana
ace: Kas vs Mana
In my opinion

After the EMCS, I'm not going to underestimate Empire again. It all comes down to Beastyqt vs MorroW I think, but that's a closer match than most people expect. I can see this going to ace, and I can see Empire maybe taking this if that happens. But yeah, Empire are the underdogs here.

perfect prediction. This will go down!

Well, Mousesports should take this 3-1 or 4-0. I want need EG vs. Mousesports in the finals!

Perhaps Artisteo is his alter ego and we will see some cool new strats.... maybe...

siw vs thorzain
beasty vs morrow
kas vs hasuobs
artiesto vs mana
hasu fighting :D
go mouz!
|
This will be mouz 4-0 O.O
|
Hmm... Hasu vs. Kas will probably be the key match here (it is also the closest one to call IMO). I could see either Aristeo or Beasty upsetting their opponents (both are very unlikely). If Kas wins against Hasu and takes it to the Ace match, Empire has a chance to win it. However, if Hasu comes out victorious, Mouz will most likely advance to the finals.
Mouz is certainly the favourite here, though. My guess: 2-1 for Hasu (his PvT looked really good lately) and 3-1 for mouz overall.
|
When does this actually start? It says 18 CET in the main post which is now but in the sidebar it says 1 hour away?
|
starts in 1 hour... which is 18 CET if I'm not mistaken...
|
It's 18:05 CET now so it would be 19:00 CET when it starts.
|
oh... USA time changed then #_#!~
|
Morrow vs Beasty will be interesting to watch as they are practice partners.
|
|
|
can't see siw or aristeo winning in a Bo3, so Kas and Beastyqt will have to, very challenging for Empire
|

I'm thinking we'll end up with an ace match. Thorzain, Beasty, Kas and Mana wins.
|
GL to Empire, though it's gonna be very tough for them.

No, usually it's just fine. Will probably be fixed after the game. hopefully. My ears are starting to bleed.

Lags like hell. Please do your homework.

|
|
Oh Thorzain, your ghost control is pretty decent.
|
Norway25712 Posts
No lag for me. Both players banking tons of money, I'm pretty sure Thorzain has got this.
|
That was one sexy engagement by Tzain.
|
Im having huge lagspikes aswell and its definately not my internet since I can watch other streams just fine.
|
Holy hell. I just opened the stream and was blasted with the loudest audio I've heard in a few years.

Well, it can't be the stream. I have no lag spikes at all.
ThorZain takes game 1.
|
im not having any lags but im wondering who is casting? he seems not to do that very often
|
Yeah, can we get a co-caster in here? I'm not going to hate on not noticing everything, because it's really hard casting by yourself. It really seems like often he has nothing to say, and just sort of says gibberish or less interesting stuff in order not to have downtime. Having somebody to talk with and bounce ideas off of would really help this cast...
|
Well that was pretty one sided
|

Yeah but that was also somewhat expected. Next series will prolly be a lot closer with Beastycutie vs MorroW.
|
Kinda wierd choice not to send in their best player vs thorzain:S Kas took him down last week. I guess Empire havent got enough good players to beat Mouz.

Hopefully Beastyqt will be done with the Zotac cup Monthly Finals soon lol

Teams email me their lineups and thats how it goes... so if you're good at predicting their lineup you get good matchupos

Yeah, I wonder why this is brought up in every team league. How should they possibly choose matchups in a fair way?

EG easily have the ability to take Mouz down. Huk, Idra, Puma? That's a pretty strong lineup.

If by easily you mean "easily" then I wont completely disagree. However mouz recently won the EGMC for the second time with EG finishing as 4´th.

Yeah, EG has clearly the strongest foreign lineup.
Mouz just have been teamleague monsters.

This feels like GSL season 3 all over again
|
|
|
Why the hell does MorroW refuse to put down that spinecrawler?! Seriously its the most noobish of noobish mistakes when you scout a 2-rax to not put down a spinecrawler.
|
Morrow realy isnt handling the early pressure all that well.
|
Morrow just GG son it was over at 5 mins lol.
Edit: plus side to Morrow losing, we get to see all 4 matches and possibly an ace!
|
Isn't Happy on Empire? Why isn't he playing?
|
gogo hasu beastmode activate!
wow what in gods name was he thinking there...
|
|
|
We can have, somewhat (at least by some) unexpected result here, all down to Mana.
|
|
|
Wow nice warp-in block to stop the runby by Mana
Edit: Ouch, lost the warp-prism
|
Was this played before the warp prism hp buff?
|
oh thanks for introducing yourself 
Doing a great job man ! nice improvement after listening to GSL earlier today.
|
too many probes for mana, 93 on three bases
|
Axletoss your mic is out or something. It's just gamesounds right now.

He didn't realize he was muted, he thought he was muting himself while coughing because he didn't want the stream to hear it.

Because he mutes his mic when he goes to cough, but since it was already muted he actually unmutes it, so thats why you hear it ... simples

Kas pretty good man. Ripped up egmcs and now this
|
Kas:D
Kas has finaly showed how good he really is. Proberly the best foreign terran atm hope he can play like this at lans also
|
I was starting to think Kas might have fallen off a little bit. He didn't have any recent cup wins and he hadnt gone to events for some time. Then EGMC and this comes around and my trust is regained :D
I rly rly hope Kas starts to go to more live events. After he won WCG Ukraine he said that he didnt get nervous at lans anymore, hope thats true, cus if it is, he could do some serious damage. Kas fighting!

Wow, congrats Empire, avenging the finals loss to Mouz in the EG Master's Cup recently.
Against EG I would say that Empire is the underdog. With EG fielding Huk, Puma, Idra, and Demuslim, and the fact that EG beat Empire in both the EG Master's Cup and the GCPL roundrobin play, I'd put my bets on EG.

So mouz finally lost a clan war, it had to happen eventually. GJ to Empire, good luck in the finals, though I will be supporint EG. It should be a great series, no matter who wins.
Its such a shame Kas can't translate insane online play to consistent lan results, he'd probably be considered the best foriegn Terran if he could, but right now he's stuck in offline medoicrity.
|
OP updated with results, congrats to our winning team !
|
Kas seems to play better than ever. I am looking forward to see him play against whomever EG can throw at him.

Yeah, I'd vote for Empire without a doubt if the rules allowed for the matchups to be Kas vs IdrA, Kas vs Puma, Kas vs Demuslim and Kas vs HuK. :D Come on Xeris, Kas vs the world, make it happen.
|
It all boils down to beasty and kas, I feel like they have a chance to take a game from anyone in EG.

Actually Empire beat EG in the EG Masters Playoffs...
|
Wow kas beast mode again ? Nice :-)
|
Wow, Beastyqt and Kas fighting! Can't wait for Empire versus EG
|
GG empire is good but i believe EG have what it takes
probably the best mu for EG would be demuslim or puma vs kas, EG should win it tho!
|
Kas played really well, didn't expect mana to be picked apart so easily. Beasty's match though I dunno what to say, I won't say he couldn't have won if it came to a longer game, but honestly morrow just gave those two games away... That was some of the worst defence I've seen in a long time. Of course beasty could have won anyway, but as it is he got the win handed to him on a platter. Oh well, we all have bad days I guess. Congrats to Empire, hope they can beat EG.
|
Noo MorroW what have you done
Oh well, hopefully Empire gets it together in the finals as well.
