I would say that Empire and Root should be in the same tier, and Col. and RoX should not be in tier 2 or you would have to expand that tier a lot.
I'm sorry but you can't put Empire and ROOT on the same level. ROOT got 2nd place in Machinima, and won SGL Season 1 and 2, and were 1 game away from making the GCPL playoffs. Empire finished 7th in GCPL. Sure they have players (Kas who is a BEAST) and Nerchio (who has been really really good lately) who perform well in individual events, but ROOT has been a class above Empire in every way. ROOT has proven that they belong in Tier 1 with their results in individual AND team events, Empire only has individual results, which can't really tell you how good of a TEAM they are.
RoX has won I believe 2/3 of the seasons of the Russian proleague. That's probably enough to put them in Tier 2 IMO. compLexity is doing really well in CEVO and ESEA, in addition to their individual results.
When making this unofficial ranking in my head, I weighted team stuff about 60% and individual stuff 40%. If you look at it like that, I don't see how you can say Empire should be on the same level as ROOT, or how coL and RoX shouldn't be on Tier 2.
And Rob -- I wouldn't add Sixjax on there until they accomplish something as a team, or individually, neither of which has happened yet.

probably mouz.ThorZain vs mouz.HasuObs in the TSL final. Go Hasu!!! this would mean, that mousesports are the best team^^

hmm i think Empire and MYM should be roughly on a lvl with Root. Also if you add coL, FXO or RoX in there u might as well add teams like Sixjax, Virus, Cybernation, Alien Invasion, One, vVv etc.

mouz obviously has smart management, their roster is scary good ^^ gratz to Thorzain, wish both parties the best of luck!

Or it could be ThorZain vs. Naniwa, and that would mean Sweden is awesome.

Thorzain is shaping up to be one of my favorite terran players!! Congrats to him AND all of mouz!
|
|
Nice! Will be fun to see if thorzain can keep doing well in tournaments.
|
Although I was really rooting for Kas, I'm happy for Thorzain. Must be great to have such a renowned sponsor backing you.
|
oh my god. I just love ThorZaIN and his play so much, and it's going to be so much better for him at LANS, tournaments and stuff, although I still think Prae and NightEnd are still an amazing clan.
|
funny, yesterday i was thinking that Thorzain would probably would join a new team after his success in TSL, and one day later i read this.
GL Thorzain and Mousesports

Russian proleague is only for russian players and played much time ago. Lineup there was without our top-players Happy, Nerchio and Beastyqt and rox had their top-line. So RPL isn't so big win.

I think both, Mouz and Thorzain will benefit from this. It was clearly just a matter of time that a big team would sign him after those matches against MC
|
Gratz to both Thorzain and Mousesports!
|
Grats Thorzain!
Mouz is probably one of the strongest non-korean teams in SC2 right right now.
|
Good for Thorzain. I don't know how much money mousesports puts into starcraft 2, but they are one of the biggest teams in e-sports as a whole, so hopefully we'll get to see Thorzain at a lot more events.
|
Thorzain is really good so it's a great pickup by mouz!
|
Mousesports sure has got a promising team now!
|
|
Fun fact:
Thorzain is the only grandmaster player in Europe with 100 win-%
Though he's played a whooping 7 games. Still impressive being grand master within 7 games.
