They didn't even use Genius or Keen. Also, I think they are playing on EU server. MVP is playing with latency.
Yea they are on NA. ^.^ oh well,you edited this one.
sorry about last post.

You can't blame the for sending out players to get practice in important games. This guy surely has been doing well in practice, the team manager will never say *yeah well he has only 45% win chance against zerg in GSL so i wont send him* because what a player is capable of achieving in practice is much more important. They WANT to win, but you have to see they have a Bo9 buffer (which btw is pretty stupid imho, especially when mouz is a 6player team who has to win 2 Bo9's...) and it's also a good way to inspire confidence in the player.
Come on, let him play!

lol oops for spoilers if you haven't watched today's GSL matches >.>
|
Who says, that they don´t take the tourney seriously? People need to remember, that mouz needs to win two Bo9 matches. So why not give unknown players the chance to prove themselves against top foreigners and gain some some exposure? IM can still wield their top guns when it really matters.

Not sure why MVP didn't pull out players like Keen or Genius. Noblesse, Finale, and Monster aren't exactly their top players...

Well, considering they stomped mouz 5-2 with yoda and some guy whose name I can't even remember and they have 2 bo5s to work with they're probably taking this lightly. BUT WHY do this in the GRAND finals

Mouz is a 6 player team but one of their players is not really a progamer, he is only 15, so all players play the BO9

it's nearly impossible for mouz now. they have to play throughout the night and win 10 games vs a bunch of elite koreans. it's 2 am CET now. so, I don't have much faith, not because of the player strength (MOUZ FIGHTIIIING), but the conditions are too tough to overcome. I hope I'm wrong, though
e: and marine has to sleep now so the whole team has to play (and stay up)

thats what u get for not sending out keen. U LOSE

Good luck against QIM. You're going to need it. You realize there are more excuses than jetlag such as lag and the weird hours (not sure entirely about this though) for the Korean players. I don't want to take anything away from Mouz because they played amazing, but your statement is really a offensive strawman's argument because it attacks something the other side wouldn't say and if they did say something it would be for the aforementioned which is true. lololol Looks like that joke just went flying past your head. LOLs. I'll bite, what's the joke? And I apologize in advance then. xD From many months back, every time a non-korean player beat a korean, people started using jet lag as the main excuse. It was so annoyingly prevalent that people started using it jokingly even when both players travelled the same distance or the korean player was already in the country for a good while. I guess you missed that period.

Yea they are on NA. ^.^ oh well,you edited this one. sorry about last post. npnp I am not trying to downplay mouz because I think they defiantly one of the strongest foreign teams. It would just be nice if blizzard could fix the latency issues and it's pretty ridiculous that they haven't already.

I don't know if Mouz can do it, but you're wrong about the conditions. The match is over right now, and the replays are casted, so mouz had a good schedule

Hah. I acknowledge that Mouz certainly earned that win and played very well, but any logical person can't deny that MVP didn't send out the best lineup possible, nor can a logical person deny that DRG played pretty badly relative to the standard he usually sets for himself. I'd rather analyze things carefully and consider all factors objectively rather than close my ears and chant "No whining, no excuses, nah nah nah". Mouz deserved the win for sure, especially with some amazing play from Thorzain, but MVP definitely didn't send out their best lineup, and DRG's weak performance was an exception, not a norm.
