Yesterday evening Gabriel "mouzHeroMarine" Segat secured himself an EPS Germany title after beating Socke in the finals with a 3-2 score and defeating his teammate and former titleholder mouzHasuObs in the semifinals. Since the beginning of the German EPS series for StarCraft II, not a single terran player has managed to win it all - a streak that Mr.Segat clearly ended.

Not only was he the first terran, he was also the youngest EPS SC2 winner - only 16 years of age as he entered the competition. With this victory, mousesports HeroMarine walks away with €3000 and a directseed into IEM Cologne. Team mousesports have now won EPS Germany three times in a row in StarCraft II. Eight months ago, in an interview with D-esports, HeroMarine told them "I would like to win at least one EPS Germany" - something that he can now check off on his bucketlist.

He showed amazing TvP versus Hasu and Socke, it was great to watch.
GGWP Gabriel!

I wanted to look up the Broodwar EPS to see whether any of them was won by a terran, but sadly the Broodwar Liquipedia is not complete in that regard.

so did I, I also managed to find nothing on the ESL page. They have a section dedicated to "Rückblick", but it is empty.

I know there's an age limit for them, but not 100% sure what it is.

Great first step for Gabriel!!!! Really excited to see him in WCS EU and IEMs in the future, good luck .
|
|
He played really good for quite some months now, and his stream is my favorite non-Protoss one for sure. I was pretty happy to see him winning!
|
He's definitely been improving, can't say I'm expecting him to become a foreign hope anytime soon but for now it's cool beans for him
|
I love that guy - Hope he and ShoWTimE go and stay full pro

As far as I can remember he said in an Interview, that he don't want to be a full time "Progamer". So I guess it will never happen, that he will be one of the best foreigners.
