Yeah, good matchups for mouz, though it's not written in stone. Thorzain is a given win for mouz. Then apocalytic can certainly win, Mana have been a bit inconsistent against zerg and Sase are improving and might have learned some PvZ skills off Naniwa.

It depends when the games were played, I think he gave up his muta strategy because good toss know how to stop it. Also, ohana doesnt look like a good map for mutalisks.
theognis has a small chance to win I think. Apocalypse gonna win Hasuobs if they play on NA server. MaNa should win vs Destiny and SaSe vs MorroW will definitely be the most interesting game.. rooting for SaSe.
I would say Mouz definitely favored to win here. Doubtful that we will see Naniwa in the ace match though, otherwise I think Quantic would have played him in the regular lineup.
guessing Destiny will go mass muta's b/c of the infestors not being OP anymore....THEN i see a 3-1 coming from Mouse b/c i dont see hasuobs beating theognis
Too bad we probably won't be seeing SaSe v MorroW but I'm hoping! Weird choice from Quantic to not put their best player today in one of the first 3 matches since it's a bo5 :/

Maybe he's like HuK and won't play NA server due to lag from KR.

I think he played and beat TitaN in an NASTL match a while ago.
Destiny gets 70 food up. Destiny sits in his base to wait for a way-too-late hive-tech. Mana is maxed by the time Destiny has Brood Lords. Destiny still destroys in the fight. Destiny waits again because God-only-knows. Mana gets a Mothership. Mana wins.
Not a good day to be a Destiny fan ;;
EDIT: put it in spoilers because... well yeah it's a spoiler

you need like a really good split and you need a lot of broodlords for it to be worth it, the sucking in mechanism of vortex basically makes you lose control of your units.
I loved how it was just the beginning of the game, they had done nothing but make workers and scout, but because the audio was messed up, it was like "The only thing SaSe can do at this point is all in!"

Isn't that what you are supposed to do? Wait at the towers and let the creeps come to you?

didnt see the games, would be nice if someone told me how it went
BIO vs MECH. Ognis kept the tank count low so he eventually won
SaSe vs MorroW! epic match for sure! the battle of the 2 swedes! <3<3<3~ another funny match theognis vs ThorZaiN! TvT! just e-laugh! like 40+ minute macro games! gogo!? Destiny(brofestor lover) vs MaNa(nice high-templar user) might be funny to see ;-)

Perhaps. I was under the impression that he lived with SaSe, who seems to always turn up.

NASL really needs to improve their casters. They totally missed the fact that Apocalypse opened with a Reaper (which was in the production tab that they had up) and that the Reaper provided the necessary scouting information that they said he didn't have (and then they talked about how risky his opening was because he didn't scout). They also completely missed the damage and scouting the Reaper did at Hasuo's base which was at least one Probe kill all while they were looking at Apocalypse's base wondering "what kind of weird build is this?"
I just turned off the cast after that moment. They have so much room for improvement, and they can begin by watching the production tab and minimap, especially at the start of the game.
