There are two ways how to win tournaments - either you are so good that you brute force your way through your opponents just with your playstyle (but only DRG, MKP and very few others can do this) or you play like Mana did - you prepare and you play to your opponents weakness (Nestea, MMA and MVP are all doing that)... I think he deserves respect.

btw, problem with protoss imo is, that they have the potential to create the most epic and best games of all races (Ace vs B4 in up and downs comes to mind, or Hero vs Idra in DH Valencia for example) and everyone is dissapointed that not every game is like that...


Im so happy that someone noticed this. I wrote similar post and got note about "Polish fanboy". Bunch of kids support some famous names in SC2 and because of that they are really blind. There are only little group of players who can cheese, play 2base attacks and their fans write about "unique playstyle". They dont realize that even Boxer scv rushed Yellow in one of the finals sc bw tourney 3 times in a row.


This!
I've been a longtime fan of Mana since I saw his awsome games against Nama at dreamhack winter 2010, casted by Apollo and Day9. He took 2nd place at that time unfortunately.

In this tournanament he played almost flawless and has beaten some of the best players. The guy is full of talent and potential and let's please nog forget that he isn't a full time gamer because he still attends school. This was just well deserved and I hope he can keep this pace up. Cheers to you Mana!


He's done with school now. He was training full time since then.

Oh well...in that case this is the result of that. Not to shabby and it shows he's a very good player.

Not trying to troll but is Khaldor gay? serious question. After watching him cast with Incontrol for so long, his reactions just gave me that vibe that he might be. Got nothing against gay just curious.

In what universe is this a serious question? What relevance could the sexuality of a guy you listen to talk about a video game on TV possibly have to you?

Unless Khaldor decides to make an official announcement regarding where he prefers to stick his pecker, it's none of your business and asking about it is silly and immature.

Well normally people would think i am trolling or trying to talk shit about him which i was not with my question. It was just out of curiousity on my part, not really a big deal.

Well unless you are that way inclined yourself, and have feelings you are wanting to act upon, there really is no need to even ask.

If you are, you may end up disappointed.

He doesn't say it quite as bad as it may sound to some people, was from Slashers interview after he joined EG.

I decided to join EG to give myself new challenges. I've always had some kind of competition in myself to become the best in the team. Even though Mousesports has many great players with Stefan "MorroW" Andersson, Grzegorz "MaNa" Komincz, and others, I think I was the best player on the team, the most consistent. It wasn't that challenging for me.
