Unless MaNa is on top of his game this clan war plus Hasu and some1else step-ups Axiom will roll it.

Illusion - Miya as starters.

Lets see how is Illusion Hots looking, would be important win for mouz not so much for axiom tho

mouz were in talks with MC, viOlet and Grubby for the role of the joker, but it didn't really work out in the end and they decided to rely on the six players on their own roster.

They didn't want an "upcoming English caster", they want the viewerbase (and obviously also the other great aspects of his casting^^) TB brings with him.

Easy fix: TB should tell Miya to play turtle into hive, start game, TB should be able to hook on some other stream in time for the action. :D

EDIT. K sry didnt know there was some "standards" to get eng stream.

I doubt that was intentional - I assume it was rather a mix-up of time differences because some countries (including Germany) switched to Daylight Saving Time last weekend...
|
nice push by Illusion looks nice
|
|
This will be a nice BO9. I hope illusion will do good for his new team. And HerOMarine is very strong in Hots, he ha a good chance to get send out aswell. And obviously MaNa and Hasu will be play a huge role.
Wait, CranK is the Captian of Axiom, so he disides who should play next? I can imagine some trouble in the Teamhouse. :D
|
Looking good for Illusion! :D

I don't know if it's just about having some standards or not... but there really aren't (m)any "up and coming" English casters (at least in EU). I try to cast in English whenever I notice there's an opening but honestly I'm a pretty big downgrade from the casters that have been able to cast ATC :D

In a similar vein it's pretty rare to see a zerg not fail miserably using swarm hosts against T
LOL THAT ENGAGEMENT
|
|
|
What happened to illusion there? lag? He didn't even move.
|
"he's not in gold league" TB says and moments later a balled up poorly positioned army that's not being paid attention to gets rolled over by ling/bling/ultra with zero reaction...
Maybe a defensive pf might've been a good idea ^_^
|
|
That baneling crash... it was both cathartic and cringeworthy.
|
Canada16217 Posts
that was weird, seems like he had a lag spike(i've had these before, the whole screen freezes but the game continues on)
|
Illusion forgot about the pizza burning in the oven
|
That engagement was terrible, what the hell happened. Also, I see no reason not to mix widow mines against lings blings muta.

I really really don't know what Miya is doing.

mana didn't really need to attack there as he denied miya's other bases. Didn't really matter though.

Yeah the game was decided earlier, bit of misfortune from Miya but it's good he's gaining experience.

Yeah mana!! gogo mousesports!!!!

Yay Mana GJ! Keep it going!

TB has by far the most entertaining break music! And a good PvP would be really fun to see now.

Channeling his inner Flash.
edit: And before he was a PvT specialist PvT was his worst matchup by far, he just worked and worked on improving and eventually it clicked. Says a lot about a player when they can do that.

Mana's looking good in HOTS !

Team MaNasports!

MaNa 7-1 against Koreans in Acer TeamStory Cup so far.

Perfect defense plus timing attack just whn he got 3 3 and few sek before ghost got on field perfect game.

This match is kind of silly

lol that was a very weird game.

Mana cleaning house there a bit silly but hey he got the win.
|
ehhhh.. That was a wierd buildorder win lol

SOoooo looking forward to Team Mana vs. Team Taeja!
|
So it was a weird game, but screw that, who cares, mouz are winning! MaNa so good, gogo Grzegorz!
PvP vs Alicia next.
|
|
Oracle Donk 3:1 Korean Terrans
MaNa 1:0 Apocalypse MaNa 1:0 Center viPro 0:1 ForGG MaNa 1:0 Heart
|
Mana is so strong atm. He really carries his team in the ATC. Mana fighting!
|
Wow MaNa already took 3 wins!
So only 2 players left, and thats CranK and Alicia, 2 Protoss. And maybe the Team has a Joker.
I am suprised by MaNa over and over again.
The BO vs Miya looks so good, i will try to copy it, as the replays will be released tomorrow already.
Mouz <3 But maybe Crank can win in the Ace match and take it all.^^
|
Gosh Mana has been so good in this league.
|
Just tuned in to see, that MaNa is on a path of destruction again; if he keeps playing like this, he is one of the absolute favorites for Dreamhack.
|
That was a sick combo with ff and nexus cannon but Mana got hardcountered here
|
what did mana say in the end?
|
Did Mana just fall to three gates only? Alicia added a stargate, but I haven't seen a single unit of it in the fight.

What did Alicia get into Mana's main's mineral line there? I can't have sound on now, and wasn't watching the whole game. I just saw him pulling his workers and the obs didn't bother to show us the attack in mana's base.

That's a balance whine.

Mouz doing surprisingly well, MaNa is a beast. But seriously Totalbiscuit's casting is soooo bad in my opinion, not knowing what map game is being played and also he seems to be totally lost whats happening/gonna happen. Even tho i suck at germany, i am gonna switch to Take since TB is so lost :/

Not sure if sending in Heromarine is the right choice. CranK probably has thought a lot about his matches and shouldn't lose to the same two base all-in anymore.

Ah na dont get me wrong on this, I think all in all this game is pretty well balanced. It was a deserved win, hOpe just took that bad fight at crank's natural and after that the supply was even, and in midgame you dont want to be even as a Z versus P.

yeah and every player has things he calls imba. I think quite a lot of Protoss players would consider Zerg's ability to tech-switch from Roach-Hydra into Muta in a few seconds imbalanced. But that's just how it is, the 3 races are different and have different strengths and weaknesses

Ooww, yeh! We need players like these rising to the top!

but hasuobs admits he should not have won the Hotscup because the maps he won against marine, he cheesed .,and actually heromarine had it won but lost this won game due to not building turrets and falling to DTs. but ofc hasu would be an option

Crank will experience a uk-masters-deja vu versus heromarine :D

I am suprised by MaNa over and over again.
The BO vs Miya looks so good, i will try to copy it, as the replays will be released tomorrow already.
Mouz <3 But maybe Crank can win in the Ace match and take it all.^^ I can't see them playing Crank as the ace.
Oh, actually i was right with that. :D
It would be brilliant if HeroMarine could beat him now, just like he did at the UK masters.
|
No drops, no problem. That was pretty much a WoL style game.
|
Vikings are there for a reason.
|
So unnecessary
|
I really don't understand why Heromarine went all in, or semi all in there. Not even really behind and facing colossus with bio, and I was hoping he'd do well.
|
go mana get the win for mouz again.
|
Yeah, not gonna lie, but I think Hero is incredibly afraid of TvP lategame playing bio...
|
He wanted to boost Marauders into 1-2 Colossi but there were already too many Colossi and he didn't really find a good place to drop. That's why I said CranK will be prepared this time.
|
Oh hey sup like 4 Collosi let me attack straight into you with no vikings or even pretending to drop somewhere. Oh hey forcefields I'll just sit there and eat all the damage, I've got medivacs here and could be picking up forces caught in front and escaping but nahhhhhhh.

as a terran fan, this match is underwhelming :[

Omg MANA do it!!
Korean vs foreigner ratio is very hopeful this tournament

He did try to drop the main and did drop behind the army. How does that count as "not even pretending?" I'm not saying it was good but please use facts when criticizing.
|
Think HeroMarine underestimated the number of Colossi that CranK had. With two fewer Colossi Hero probably would have won
|
This team league format is really exciting, I feel ITPL should of gone this route and perhaps they would of seen more succsess with ITPL.
I hope to see more of this team league in the future, it's so smart to use community/team's casters when they come up.
|
This seems over right? Unless dt's or super bad engagement.
|
That was such a sick defense from Mana
|
gogo mana! mouz ftw!
|
How the f does mana have worker lead. Amazing
|
|
PvP is rather simple, the one with the voidray's wins. If both have voidray's the one with the most voidray's wins ofc.
|
Uh oh, this isn't looking all that good for mouz.
|
If Mana does not attack soon he will just die.
Why does he not attack :'(
|
crank forgetting range for collossus?
|
I like crank army much more

Crank's army is so much better than Mana's.

Crank really REALLY needs thermal lance...

mana is dead, how should he fight this army without air??

fighting before upgrades finish......wtf?P??? manaaaaaa?

|
Manas upgrades TT seconds away to finish
|
Ahead in economy, 2 colossi on the way, better go attack. It's unfortunate but I think that was a deserved loss. Edit: Oh, and upgrade anti timing
|
that fucking pylon placements just cost mana 2 collossi!!!!
|
so funny that Crank does not have extended thermal lance^^
|
Bring it home, captain Crank!
|
That was so stupid from Mana.
|
Such bad play by Mana :'(
|
This look like standard wings PvP late game.
|
Oh man, MaNa will be kicking himself after that game, CranK got ahead and then presented him the game on a silver platter, but he still didn't take advantage of it and handed it back.
|
oh no - TB stream just died on me?!
//edit: T_T on take's stream I just watched him get dropped :-[
At least his guy is winning^^

TB stream is down

Totalbiscuit @Totalbiscuit 27s And my net just went down during the final match. Nice, Time Warner Cable at it's finest once more.

Not sure why TB is so surprised about expansion in PvP... over and over again...
|

Why isn't Mana adding more collossi? edit: ah tempets

and we just had 25k viewers before totalbiscuits stream died.

No one wants to see crank throwing the game away anymore this is just painful

Did crank take a bet that he has to win the game without attacking ever?

It was definitely more than 20k when I checked earlier (over all streams that is)

whut how did mana win that fight?!?!!? hahaha i do not understand pvp.
|
Go go go !!!! Attaaaaaack
|
MANA!!!!!!! You can do it!
|
MaNa fights better but Crank has way too big of a bank for it to matter.
|
Did mana just kill his own nexus?
|
phew, barely made it back home for the final moments of the ace match, awesome!
|
LOL... Crank really gave Mana enough time. He really hates PvP.
|
Good fight for MaNa but Crank got bank (rhyme)

I wonder which alternate language stream picked up the most viewers after TB crashed. Me, I'm actually enjoying the french stream very much

How did Crank lose that engagement from the top of the ramp with a better arc, more colos and more archons?
I know it wasn't the 3 tempests...Did storm really change that much?

Stream dies but Crank is gonna win anyways. Then I switch streams and Crank's about to lose...

I'm not sure why Crank never made tempest...

Thanks for letting me know there are 7 streams in such a courteous way.
I turned off adblock mostly for your Youtube channel and streams, but I'm glad you put me in my place anyway.

This is a really funny game, throws back and forth and then Mana figures out protoss air is really good when cranked forgets.

So funny how laidback Take was the whole time, but now he is so excited^^.

Crank's going full Benny Hill into GG

omg dont belive it manaaaaaa. so good

Crank with no detection :D

its not gonna get better if you just walk in circles crank :D

Sick, Mousesports > Axiom.

This has been a really sloppy game, but I'm learning a lot about HoTS unit comps and how effective various things are so I'm enjoying it.
|
MaNa! Damn you are so good now
|
CranK seems to have a problem with actually attacking when the game passes into lategame, had he attacked he would've won

Good job Mana! You saved the day for mouz

Love take and his "unit xyz rastet komplett aus!!!"

Hard to believe Crank threw that. Well played by Mana for sticking with it, but man. That was a big lead wasted.

We had TeamTaeja, we now have TeamMaNa.

definitly Cranks lost. He had that game. WP by Mouz. Wish Hasu played though

mousesports (manasports) to become a powerhouse once again :D

Wow MaNa, really impressive, again
|
This Mana. Such a nice game to watch.
|
3 tempests won him the game
|
Way too passive by Crank when he was so much in the lead, oh well.
|
|
So nice by CranK to just pull back when he could've won and let mana build up again...
|
I won't ever understand Cranks reasoning for winning a fight so convincingly then not even pressing into mana to gauge what kind of lead he had. Instead he waits 15 minutes for mana to mass up another army, more powerful then his, and lets mana get a great concave and throws so hard. Sigh hopefully next time he's prepared...
|
Amazing by Mana to hold on and eventually take this game, losing bases left and right, taking an awful maxxed engagement. Of course Crank helped him out a ton by playing so passive.
It was the tempests that swung the balance, the era of "who has most collosi (or collosi+immortal)" wins in PvP is officially over! I just hope it doesn't turn into "who has the most tempests".
|
|
Great clanwar, I love ATC . Go mouz, maybe they can find their 2011 form in teamleagues again!
|
Hehe someone forget to bring the Tempests to a PvP. Interesting fight though, Cranks composition was rather weak for when Tempest hit the field, but his eco was so far ahead. Crank could have had this game though, but not sure how important range was compared to one Colossus more in the first fight.

Not sure that is the case considering how that PvP went. Crank threw that so hard, game was basically over. Crank only had to finish him. Crank was losing that more than Mana was winning it.

MaNa best foreigner on HotS ? Looks like so. Awesome play !

Mana so sick, it's like he only keeps improving despite already being one of the very best foreigners.

if you lose a significant amount of late game army in pvp, you normally lose. except you throw the game away through passive play.
also, tempests were a great gamechanger.

Damn, I can't believe MaNa managed to hold on as long as he did. That takes a pretty strong mentality to see the game through.

I guess as an American (generally) it doesn't really matter what language. My German is good enough to follow sc2 matches so TaKe is the logical choice. So I guess for most Europeans it would be German of French.

I dont think we have seen enough competition to say who is the best. At least I want to see Sase and Naniwa play as well. Maybe that a TL or EG player can proove something too.
But from what I did see, yes, Mana really fucking good.

Mana played really well, as did hOpe, very impressed (and terrified) by that build. All losses are deserved as are all wins, there's no excuses to be made. I'm impressed with CranKs run even if he fell at the final hurdle, he showed poise and precision under pressure and I hope he can replicate that tonight.
As for Alicia, don't fuck with Alicia in PvP

ATC is really enjoyable. It´s got great casting, great variance in teams and runs without 10min breaks after every game. Perfect product for its niche, I think.

Too expensive. Mouz doesn't have a single player in Korea IIRC, and probably would not be able to afford to keep them there for the duration of the season short of some extravagant subsidy by GSL. :\
