Last evening saw the closing match of WC3L Season 13 inaugural playday with
Mousesports steering themselves with a close victory over
MeetYourMakers. Despite being an underdog, the German-based team managed to go against all odds with a lineup which was much in their favor.
mouz.ToD made the early breakthrough for his team by mauling over
MYM]FoCuS with a swift tier-2 tower rush, followed by a one-sided game over the Orc player on Echo Isles.
Newly acquired
MYM]Grubby managed to defeat
mouz.Happy in his WC3L debut with a score of 2 to 1 for the prominent Dutch star.
| The 21-year-old claims that he was set to face anyone, despite practicing only the Orc vs Undead and mirror match-up. “I had preparations to play anyone, ToD SaSe Fly or Happy, although I didn't think ToD would go on TM. I practiced for UD & Orc. “When I saw the line-ups, I felt we got one of the worst possible ones, and I knew it'd be hard to get even a 3-2 score. 2-3 isn't horrible either though, but I wished for more.” He told myMYM.com. However, he has also expressed his discontentment with the team’s debacle in its opening game of the season. “[Before the match], I tried not to think about it too much, but I thought we had a fair chance to win the clanwar overall. “No one would have wanted that [score]. But I try to be realistic, and given the line-up I knew it would be hard. I tried to set my expectations drastically lower when I saw that. I'm disappointed.” He adds: “I'm not surprised about result of ToD/FoCuS; Lucifer had a really hard match with Fly, [but] he tried his best. “I'm glad I didn't lose my first match for MYM. I'm most disappointed about SaSe vs Shy, but I haven’t seen the games yet.” When asked about the second game on Echo Isles against Happy, Grubby revealed that the loss was due to a tactical lapse. He said: “That was the result of a poorly planned start economically. I left my base with 1 set of heal salves, because I was low on gold (due to giving priority to teching T2). “I could not possibly have an effective harass in the middle, having spent all salves before I arrived. I never had a chance after giving away the marketplace for free, gaining some additional damage. I'd have been better off just going afk for a minute” Yet, the Orc player maintains that the map was rather balanced for both the Undead and Orc race. “Well traditionally in 2005, UD's used to complain that there was no way to stop Orc from expanding on the map because of the distance involved in walking there. “But since about 6-9 months or so, top UD's have been picking EI increasingly more. I find the map sometimes quite easy and sometimes quite hard. Although it's quite a textbook map, with quite fixed patterns of playing in Orc vs UD. “Sometimes I try to change something up, resulting for better or for worse.” |

I love how Grubby acts like Shy is 100x better than Sase... Shy is better than Sase but Sase isnt a slouch and i dont even like the guy :/ Lucifer vs Fly well... I hate to bring it to this but yes. It was imbalance. Lucifer barely won the game on TM. Honestly if Grubby played Sase i think Sase could have taken the series due to his slight improvment thus far. Grubby shouldnt be disapointed. Mouz was better than day.

I have to add that Lucifer played really really godlike, but orc is orc and fly is a top orc pla Last edited by Fayspire at 31.01.2008, 21:36

Thats something we would never see at the 4K's website !
Good job. | |

Putting Lucifer on GW was the worst decision ever and its the reason why the outcome of this CW. You guys got greedy, you expected free win Sase to come on GW since chinese (fly) don't practice much on GW, but life goes on.
as for sase vs shy, lets just say Sase played a newb strategy, which u only see in low lvl RT BNet, but yet effective enough to catch off a tehing pla Hold the S cause i'm an AINT.

I think Grubby made a mistake on EI by choosing endurance aura instead of stomp on TC first.
Sase winning was a surprise considering he is 1 win 3 loss in EM but like i said previously Sase has been mass practising vs NE lately. (hovermoon) Last edited by Contrail at 01.02.2008, 04:09

Better luck next time mYm, WC3L XIII is yours!

I tend to agree with grubby, the MU wasnt the best and still shy should have won! However setting 2 MU's with so bad odds as the case with ToD/FoCuS and Fly/Luci makes anything more than 3-2 impossible.
Would like to have seen grubby play ToD or SaSe tho. =) However nice to see that MYM is so open to criticism and discussion!! No word on whether or not u listen tho ;) Last edited by lolxxx448 at 01.02.2008, 14:33

'However, he has also expressed his discontentment with the team’s debacle in its opening game of the season.'
Some of your language selections were suspect to say the least. - 'However' is an adverb (adds information and context to sentences) and can be used as a conjunction. You use it for neither purpose, so it's completely redundant and fragments the sentence. - Why use three separate pronouns of 'he' in the first six words? A pronoun has already shortened a noun phrase down to one word, so excessively using pronouns is about the worst form of redundancy you can achieve. - 'Discontentment'. Please explain why you've chosen to use a longer and unwieldy version of a word, when the meaning doesn't change what so ever. Discontent would've been fine. -'Debacle' is completely over the top and just a very poor lexical choice. Here's me thinking you actually work for MYM as well. Always remember context, so while a defeat is a disappointing result, it was only 2:3 and your new pla Here's an example of how you could've wrote the sentence - “He expressed discontent at the teams opening game of the season.”. Your mistakes are obvious, and by no means severe (in this case). I suggest in future, if you're struggling with bulk, just get more information or add more relevant context. Don't take this offensively, I could break apart any writers work in the scene, including my own. I've just started to use this website regularly and you seem to be the main producer of content. | |
