I think mouse showed on the ESEA lan that they can be able to compete with T1 teams. So who knows, they might surprise some people

2015-04-21 00:04

With how dignitas have been performing lately, I see them doing more damage. In my opinion, there are only 8 t1 teams tho. Na'Vi, NiP, Fnatic, EnVyUS, TSM, and VP are pretty much set in stone at this point. Penta fell short after major and are no longer t1 if you ask me. Titan and keyd stars take 7th and 8th then. 9th go to dignitas, and 10th go to mouz / lgb / penta

2015-04-21 00:12

KeyD starts tier 1? ha-ha-ha-ha-ha

2015-04-21 00:58

2015-04-20 21:57

Hellraisers seriosly?why note Na`Vi?

2015-04-20 21:35

who cares, its alot of good teams, and there is so many leagues now, so u would assume some declines cuz other comitments

2015-04-20 21:38

no,no bad teams!

2015-04-20 21:47

maybe tsm will win their first lan tournament, or maybe they will choke against lgb

This lan was made special for TSM to give them finally a win. Because if this lan would have vp, navi, envyus, fnatic tsm would never win anything.

only tier 2-3 team lol

I see only one team who can take it mousesports rest tier 2

2015-04-20 21:40

2015-04-20 22:00

At first glance I read it like "AMD powered by Intel with $40,000"

AMD & Intel in one sentence, my life is complete.

2015-04-20 22:11

$. $3,000

2015-04-20 22:05

I'd say TSM vs LGB in the final.

Question to admins: Why do you keep putting mouz under the German flag with only 1 German in squad? - Cos it's German org? Well, then why did you change Navi's flag to CIS's?.. It is a Ukraine-based organization with not 1 but 2 Ukrainians in squad! Moreover, Ukraine is NOT a member of the Commonwealth for more than a year now and Slovakia is a EU member and never been CIS Logic? That wasn't it!

2015-04-20 22:08

Mouz has 3 germans: tabsen, gob and legija

2015-04-21 08:03

German citizenship doesn't make them German gob b is Turk, he's under the Turkish flag on Hltv, and plays for Turkish national CS team. Same with Legija, he is Serbian, under the Serbian flag in Hltv stats board... So if NiKo stays in Germany enough time to get a DE citizenship, you'll say mouz has 4 Germans?
