mouz & myR reach EPS final

1-4-2012 00:17

The fight for glory in ESL Pro Series Germany Spring Season 2012 will be a showdown between mousesports and myRevenge.de at the season finals, following Saturday's quarter- and semi-finals.

For the ninth season in a row, mousesports find themselves in the final of the German ESL Pro Series. The German squad made this possible with 2-0 victories against NeverPlay in the quarter-final and Alternate in the semi-final.

Despite going undefeated through the group stage, Alternate fell short of the finish line for the second season in a row, not making the season's grand final. This came with a loss against the rivals from mousesports, who won 16-10 on first map de_dust2 and then went up 15-0 on second map de_nuke, winning 16-5 to advance to the grand final.

With mousesports announcing the shutdown of its CS 1.6 division earlier this month, the ESL Pro Series Spring Season 2012 finals will be the last appearance for the team. Finn "karrigan" Andersen had his last show in mousesports against Alternate, as he will not be playing with the team at the finals, due to date collision with the Swedish Championship qualifier in Stockholm, which he will attend with his new team fnatic.

Christian "Blizzard" Chmiel will assist mousesports at the season's conclusion, which will take place April 28-29 in ESL's backyard, which is of course Cologne.

Chmiel and the rest of mousesports could win the ninth ESL Pro Series in a row and fourteenth overall. The winner of this season will bring home 5,000€ and the trophy, while the second placed team will have get 2,500€ for their efforts.

For the interested souls out there, we have gathered Andersen's POV demos from his last mousesports appearance, find them in the POV demo section.

Why do they have it like their fulltime job? Answer: They are better.

2012-04-01 01:13

haha, yes, swedish teams are a lot better =D

swe > de

2012-04-01 01:28

IM SO MUCH BETTER THAN YOU BUT YOU PLAY MORE THAN ME THATS THE ONLY REASON YOU WON, best reasoning ever imo

2012-04-01 04:28

karrigan 1.72 lol :D

Big play by karrigan today.

2012-04-01 00:30

I presume it will be hard for karrigan to play for fnatic and have an eye (and presumably part of his heart) looking to Cologne at the same time.

well he already basically gave them the EPS trophy, by beasting alternate. if they lose to myR in the finals I would be greatly surprised, even if they have a (great) standin.

I refered more to the fact of not being able to end this journey with them but seeing it from the distance.

yeah must be hard. but what I meant is that he can be proud and that he had a great good bye, what better gift for his former team/org mouz than a 2-0 vs alternate in the semi finals where he shines (yes a 2-0 vs alternate in the finals, but still I count this more valuable than a same performance in a final vs myR). so no reason to look back for him and think that he could have done or given more :P ofcourse it will be tough to leave his mates, still

Yes they could even win...on the internet. At lan they won't

2012-04-01 10:36

blizzard is a boss, he will do well :P

2012-04-01 01:06

Alternate with all their practice etc can't beat mouz who is a mix-team now. Haha. Shame on Alternate ;) Edit: And they even lost 15:0 on nuke. Haha. Seriously :s

they are on bootcamp and got ddos`d :( the alternate homepage was also down the whole time some idiots always do that shit

2012-04-01 01:27

yeah and they played nearly a year together on many lanevents turn your stoned brain on

2012-04-01 03:57

"they are a mix-team now" Wtf, they just recently split up. You seriously think they became terrible in a couple of weeks of not playing together?

2012-04-01 05:37

You know what, I was in the process to write a reply to you, but in the middle of it, I just removed everything. I don't have the passion, I guess you can say that, to prove users wrong etc, when you can clearly see by yourself. It's like night and day with Alternate and mousesports for the last couple of weeks or months if you will and if you can't see that you are definitely delusional and there is no point to reply to users like that and I'm gonna leave you with that. Sorry.

2012-04-01 06:25

April 1st?

2012-04-01 14:48

mouz always beating alternate.

2012-04-01 10:16

this mouz was a mixteam? these guys were the starting five on all big events in 2012 and 2nd halve of 2011... yes they weren't playing together alot lately, and did not have any new tactics. they just used all of their old stuff, and having karrigan and roman just ensured they simply outshot their opponents

2012-04-01 13:15

looking forward to the final. this makz dude seems to be a good one, had no idea before this news that he played here :) (only remember CB thread)

2012-04-01 01:29

LEGIJA = log1?

2012-04-01 01:44

nice one, mouz! gl for the finals with Blizzard. and gl Finn in fnatic, you deserve this opportunity!

2012-04-01 01:45

maybe never have a chance to see German Power in big event!

2012-04-01 01:56

buli? +14 who is it?

good last show for karrigan in mz , next map will easy vs myr.

2012-04-01 02:29

nice BULI

2012-04-01 02:47

When I read Blizzard the 1º thing that comes to my mind is this: youtube.com/watch?v=JfogZpeAYXA&feature=..

2012-04-01 03:26

karrigan will miss out on the prizemoney after doing all the work for mouz :(

2012-04-01 03:47

Nice to see Blizzard in the action :)

2012-04-01 08:27

mouz all the way <333 roman gl

2012-04-01 08:35

maKz is amazing player

2012-04-01 08:39

so mous cs retired or no?

2012-04-01 09:16

They will drop the squad at the end of EPS.

2012-04-04 19:48

DkH Match vs myR was very good

2012-04-01 10:15

APRIL FOOLS!

2012-04-01 10:25

Hopefully, mousesports' players will not retire. I see at least one really great opportunity to mix-up and become an invincible german-language based team with: gobb/kapio, roman, troubley, makz and tixo.

2012-04-01 10:29

One main reason for karrigans sick play is that hes doing what gob tells him to do.

ROFL he was insane in full gaming too man :P

Has he won any title with full gaming? nope btw this is just what he said himself, so arguing about it seems pretty senseless to me.

2012-04-01 15:08

wat sure he won lans with fullgaming i think dsrack and one more lan, vs fnatic in the final

2012-04-01 15:37

now compare that to the MVP-title at ESWC. Got it? ;)

2012-04-01 16:38

no not really. he and friis were always mvps in danish events. and you think just because they played with carn and gob_b suddenly they become alot better? sure it will help quite abit, playing with more exp. players than their former FG, but he always was sick already. They just now win prizes because they simply have better teammates. Look at FG roster, compare it with players like roman and moddi

2012-04-01 17:31

You dont understand it. This is what karrigan said HIMSELF. Its not something I made up but his own words. And comparing MVP-titles of danish LANS is different from being MVP at an international event, isnt it?

2012-04-01 17:48

sure it is, but I really do feel he hasn't grown that much when it comes to fragging power over his time in mouz. he already came in after insane performances in FullGaming, and they were already giving mTw a very hard time to stay best in Denmark (winning among others the danish WCG qualifier). I just feel friis and karrigan were way better than their teammates. and from the start karrigan was already the main fragger with roman in mouz, it's not like he got that off of gob_b surely? :p but I may be wrong, and gob's tactical brilliance just gives him the mental boost he needs to perform to the max :P

2012-04-01 19:35

your last sentence says it all. Of course he played great before aswell. He was like Skywalker and gob was Yoda if you know what I mean! :D

2012-04-01 19:44

hahaha ^_^ yeah :P

2012-04-01 19:53

nice king bob ~~~~~~~~ one of the best players out there. always stable playing, i hope he will play as good as he did in mouz, in fnatic

2012-04-01 11:17

I hope roman and gob b will find a new team next season, they truly deserve it. I'm also very happy to see MYR developing, they are very talented, and also DkH are great and they are probably the big surprise of this season - well done.

2012-04-01 11:42

karrigan beast.. crZy fucking shit.. stop acting like your so freaking good.. you suck.. idiot.

2012-04-01 12:02

:D? ok zinjo!

2012-04-01 12:42

reaching german EPS lan finals, and 2nd round there, is probably a dream of many. I wouldn't call that being shit, unless he bottomed every match of the season and lan finals

2012-04-01 13:23

He's always so smart on xplayn.. and think he can beat everyone.. but then his teams and especially him fails badly..

2012-04-01 14:38

hltv.org/?pageid=246&playerid=2155&event.. So because i say danish teams are crap we fail? Not really - actually we did one really great season, and overall i played actually pretty good :)

2012-04-01 14:44

wouldn't know about xplayn communication :P

2012-04-01 17:29

hltv.org/?pageid=246&playerid=2155&event.. Guess i did :)

2012-04-01 14:45

It's 1. april, they must have changed the stats :)

2012-04-01 15:03

or maybe you just couldnt know less what your talking about ;)

2012-04-01 16:25

no need to show me I know you are not a bad player at all. I'm sticking up for you! :P

2012-04-01 17:27

gob will stop playing professional. he has other priorities in his life now. ninja retires, zonnixx does also i think. roman goes on playing, but its not sure where he does. he also consideres switching to cs:s
