MaNa (P) vs Naama (T) Game 3 Grand Finals - DreamHack SteelSeries Starcraft 2 Tournament

[Yui111Yui]

nice how you kicked the ass of that lazy imba terran (:

[Cybraxas]

@Yui111Yui Like that was hard with psi-storms. Talk about anything being more op than psi-storms.

[Yui111Yui]

fucking dumb commerials h8 it!!!

[OllweeProductions]

Replay?!

[bboyagua]

Hard to make a fan out of someone in a single game, but Mana did it for me. That kid is incredible.

[OoWaRPiGoO]

Naama @ face like a slapped arse 24:12

Nicely done MaNa

[MagicTsukai]

Imagine if Terrain had a single ghost with emp...

lol, epic as hell.

Go MANA~!

[lucaschallenger]

Seriously one of the best sc2 matches yet

[koli54321]

OH MY WILL HE PULL IT OFF?

[Spoonkiller15]

how do they not hear the commentating they arent even in booths or anything and it looks like its the same room

[TheOtherAzn]

@Spoonkiller15 the headphones prevent them from hearing any other sounds. other than perhaps a loud roar from the crowd

[MrLag1337]

bad mics lol

[omgwtfstfu101]

man this was probably the best game I have watched!

[Sotanath86]

going up to 3 fact tanks late off 1 base mining, fucking stupid

[MrLudde423]

Lol thats what she said 17:24

[ExceedProduction]

Holeee fuckin shit

[killerfurball2]

What happened to the banshee?

[GotenSSJ1]

Here because of reading Blizzards' interview :)

[accountNo9]

This is one of those matches where the game is elevated to an art form. I wanna see this kinda entertainment on prime time sports television

[KnightOfAmarCostume]

23:57 DAY9 HAS A BONER

24:10 DAY9 COMES IN HIS PANTS ...

LOL

[AresExodus]

BEST. GAME. EVAR.

[mrbigpants]

can anyone tell me how the next few games turned out? ie, who was first to 3 wins?

[akec4242]

@mrbigpants mana forced game 5. in game 5 he got contained on delta with tanks and tried to break down his ramp but naama held and won.

[eternalcrusade]

Game starts out pretty slow, right until that contain. After that, I've been at the edge of my seat since. I gotta learn how MaNa keeps this much patience! Epic, just epic. :D

[TheDrewid95]

Thanks for that link blizz holy shit amazing

[PwngeTrooper]

I see why it's Sean's favorite. Fantastic game.

[DeeStylistic]

2:58. Unit portraits. I DID NOT KNOW THAT AND I AM NOW SHITTING BRICKS.

[goalerath]

One of my favorite games of all time

[Psi7tv]

Omg seriously tense game!

[kafkawood]

Who is that faggy with english accent? So terrible.

[henninggangso]

@kafkawood shut up idiot

[kafkawood]

@henninggangso Aw, faggy has a friend, how cute <3

[henninggangso]

@kafkawood Wow.. i don't know what to say : p you shouldn't really say that word, it is really offensive to gay people.. and what's wrong with an english accent? it is the original language

[lessQQmorepewpeww]

@kafkawood Think that's D.apollo or someshit. And I agree, he's a pretty bad caster.

[randompiece6]

Far out, these players have good micro.

[suprise66]

thumbs up if you came because of day 9's interview!

[Anodyne123123]

@suprise66 stop the stupid "thumb me up" comments -.-''

attention-bitch

[benjef]

How did Naama lose that.... If he expanded while he was containing = easy win.

But hero storms <3.

[imagnome123]

I am literally grinning from ear to ear, that was fucking awesome

[DoggyStarcraft]

HE DOES IT!!!!

[Healingproof]

Good game:P altho, this is pre High Templar nerf. Really imbalanced. Naama played better, but Mana still wins cause of a broken patch. Anyways, Naama won 3-2 even tho the PvT Imbalanace^^ Kharma ;)

[SisarothSC]

@Healingproof Lol you're forgetting some other few changes like:

-Stim pack was nerfed

-observers got buffed

-protoss air got buffed

Just saying he won because HTs are OP is ignorant.

[GeeBon]

@Healingproof you obviously dont have a clue about this game ...

Brilliant play by mana !!!

[Healingproof]

@GeeBon ye except im masters and you're bronze. This is pre khydarin amulet removal, check it up yourself. TvP was protoss favoured as fuck (and protoss in general is just OP atm)

[Healingproof]

@erazerGG So? The avarage terran has slighlty higher ladder points in one league in one region lol. And that's your evidence of OP? Look at recent tournaments instead. Protoss dominating.

[SamiPewPew]

Day9 sounds alot like his brother Tasteless. I can only imagine how much his throat must hurt because of all the casting he did this weekend.

[aiojasiopdjsaoisjaos]

which patch version was this ?

[TheRykyu]

Wow.... great play by MaNa...

[drwt03]

19:40 - SC2 version of MOST PSI STORM EVER 

[danamoult]

@drwt03 Sadly it will never be as impressive as in SCBW simply due to smart casting. As exciting? Probably. But never as impressive. :(

[HandA711]

Just realized I have watched this game 2 times already.

[Tparadise626]

Better then TV

[dunzhao]

need HD guys, g8 game nonetheless

[SiLvoSpro]

Beautiful army composition by Naama in this game.

Why hasn't he appeared in major tournaments since this DreamHack?

[PushkinMike]

I never seen someone doing something like that, that's unbelievable! He just stayed calm under pressure for so long, then smashed it through! Wow, amazing job, MaNa.

[M3t4lManiac]

Holy shit this is amazing

[Vodka2389]

I miss KD :(

[lonewolfranger]

who is that left guy, man, he is annoying and fake

[TheDudeManSC2]

@lonewolfranger hes a caster in europe. He does stuff with TotalBiscuit. Can't think of his name but hes alright

[LunaSaint]

@TheDudeManSC2 Apollo, iirc

[kemichal]

@lonewolfranger Apollo

[usuitakumi395]

"These tanks are unsieged ohwhoa!"

[rcon1012]

get a ghost terran. i am not very impressed. sorry folks.

[DibzIsHere]

@rcon1012 notice how long ago this was, players are constantly getting better at the highest levels.

[mrhatnclaws]

@rcon1012 If Starcraft 2 was THAT easy, then why aren't you masters? You can't just say "Oh, just build a ghost right now." Look at the situation he is in. Every tank, every marauder, and every marine was needed to hold on and switching to ghosts at that point would just put him behind in Tank, marine, and marauder production. It's not as easy as saying, "OH HE'S BAD BECAUSE HE DOESN'T HAVE THIS DURING THIS AND THAT'S WHY HE LOST." Mana simply just outplayed Nama and that's all.

[asphyxiateDrake00]

I thought I was done biting my fingernails, but this game showed me otherwise.

[SuperPierG]

what a game !!

[adamd61392]

never got concussive or ghosts... wonder if things would of been deferent.

[RedDragon412]

At 14:00, if MaNa had controlled Templar movement better, he wouldn't have lost 3-4, would have helped him HUGELY to break it earlier.

[Tcyphers06]

Might be the best game of SC II ever!



[atarampi]

Good riddance Khaydarin Amulet

[millahHU]

Anyone noticed that Naama didn't have marauder slow the whole game?

[TheLoneTerran]

Fantastic game!! Loved it! Thanks for the link Blizz. *cheer* Day[9]!!

[xNucL3aRx]

Yeah, I'm here thanks to Blizzard's interview. Good job Day9!! :D Watching the awesomeness now!

[K1dare]

blizzard made me do it :P

[SpaZmonkeyWenGer]

Templar were so good back then.

[Vergos001]

@SpaZmonkeyWenGer templar are still rlly good

[Lennyblink182]

did anyone notice that the scoring board shows the colors the wrong way around?^^ at least in the beginning :)

[Lennyblink182]

did anyone notice that the scoring board shows the colors the wrong way around?^^

[BurniOwnz]

god in heaven, how can there be such a single amazing game? one game to rule them all

[AvanLotharion]

Best PvT EVER.

[icedstar]

this game and the game that socke pulled out a mothership at the last second from the mlg are the best games ever

[ryanexsus]

SO MANY FUCKING PSIONIC STORMS!!!!

[Moleus1]

5 people never played starcraft

[Moleus1]

5 peoples never played starcraft

[empirerakeback]

thats what happens when Terran doesn't use Ghosts. Mana played impeccably but just think how much stronger Terran would be if he used ghosts that game? That was an amazing game.

[BurniOwnz]

@empirerakeback

thats the kind of thinking that day9 wants to get out of our heads: "ghosts would have been great right here" is the wrong approach. just think of all the money you have to invest into those ghosts. lets even ignore the money spent on upgrades like cloak and the academy itself: every ghosts costs 150/150, that is friggen huge! seeing that many templar, it would have needed around 10-15 ghosts in the whole game, which would be about as many tanks less. 15 less tanks? no way man

[AresExodus]

This was the best game ever played in StarCraft 2.

[superoo3p]

stupid adds -.-'

[goalerath]

Favorite game of all time!!!!!!

[themasterofallfish]

storms are unfair!

[themasterofallfish]

@themasterofallfish and boring!

[DavetzWin]

9:40

holy shit...

[dlaxmcm1414]

I watched this in my room and screamed when mana pushed through the middle to win and my roommate sprinted into the room cause he though i was in pain.

[ZZDryno]

Great game

[TheWalrus19]

3 X don't like Y

[malikknight]

worst ad timing ever...

[geargodextreme]

epic video, epic storms but imo bad commentary

[luckycandy101]

19:53 not wanna be a hater but seriously spam storms and you pretty much win.

[Kro529]

@luckycandy101

Either that or you have immobile units grouped together not target firing units and you pretty much lose.

[Stefan773]

why didnt the terran get ghosts

[uselessmarial]

absolutely fucking incredible...take notes.

im a zerg player..but there is alot to learn here about strategy.

fucking amazing.

[Xephon212]

Does the energy regen on templars? Thanks for answering (I dont own the game yet)

[lgge]

@Xephon212 Yes. All units/buildings that use energy regain it over time. Protoss units/buildings also regain their shields, and Zerg units/buildings regain HP.

[Xephon212]

@Xephon212 Thanks for the information. The game mechanics make sense now. Cheers.

[Flugfeuer]

lol one thumbs down missclick probably

[MiniDonbeE]

its 9 am... i havent slept at all lololololololol havent gone to sleep... because of these series, it takes so long for the vid to load but its worth it

[AresExodus]

15:10 That was the epitome of esports awesomeness.

[iGraeme]

i would love to get a hold of the replay for this game to study these awesome players. Any1 know where i would be able to find it ?

[Flubba93]

Naama hadn't concussiv shell =(

[Chubbonds]

best fucking game

[MusicFl23Ek]

holy fucking hell....i am speechless...

[TrilogyLegend]

lol the other commentator is like oh my god"s"

[gotVTECyo]

One thing I dont understand about Mana's play. Charge zealots own everything that Naama was throwing at him. He should have just made a shit load of charge zealots instead of stalkers and transition into storm.

[minhmapdich1991]

@gotVTECyo he did that last game. it didn't work very well, and it appeared that he didnt want to risk on using the same strategy again.

[nqkoi159]

Who the F*CK thumbed DOWN !!???

[lummi20]

@nqkoi159 Naama thumbed down.

[swift4o]

@nqkoi159 ma ti bg li si e

[fobiozor19]

@nqkoi159 It was probably an accident, lol

[theufua]

@nqkoi159 People who didn't like the video. Duh.

[Trambolin111]

@nqkoi159 Faive

[calum341]

@nqkoi159 I did, boring game.

[naurto36]

@nqkoi159

Me

[TheLeadRoman]

one word.......EPIC

[DestroManiak]

Its really interesting naama iis using sensor towers

I like it

[PuntoVGF]

What an amazing game! Actualy made me stand up and cheer! wow i wish i could get up to this level .. bronze league baby! :D

[ivanx7]

@PuntoVGF they dont look that pro maybe silver, so you should be able to catch up easy. i am in gold btw and i think i can own them

[TheProutproutprout]

@ivanx7 hahah "i am in gold and i think i can own them" trololol

[Arcon1337]

That was so amazing I just can't stop smiling :D

Definitely one of the most enjoyable games I've watched!

[DrJohnnyBoss]

I dont even play StarCraft 2 but I love that game changing attack on 20 minutes where the crowd goes nuts!!!

[banzaijoe76]

wow

[UDNTKNWHOOIAM]

This video is the definition of epic storms.

[zed1207]

The patience, timing and execution in this game is just incredible.

[Zoluwizo]

this video should be titled "how to play starcraft"

[Gangboy1111]

I jumped out of my seat in excitement and grabbed my head in the last battle

most exciting game ive ever seen...

glad mana won :)

[Cronquist]

Wtf? Adds in the middle of it?! EHE

[augusto2131]

The 1 dislike is from Naama :P

[theslikk]

@augusto2131 must be so :)

[RKRClassic]

Epic, what else can I say? Best game I have ever seen.

[fortunadodesperado]

1 dislike. lol

[Wakookaka]

Uhh nevermind, guess that bs tank push is pretty much just unstoppable on all maps.

[Wakookaka]

Nice. Finally a map/positioning where terran cant just tank push and autowin.

[Tliken]

That was seriously the best match I have ever. Watched. Ever.

[wicky42]

Hah, fantastic - finally MaNa showed why he deserved to be in that tourney!

[TheBerramannen]

One of the best games i´v ever seen.

[RelloETW]

best ever. :P

[Lndmk227]

PROTOSS FRICKIN' OP!

...

See what I did there? Now imagine hearing that--Every. Single. Time. Your race wins. ;)

[empirerakeback]

omg way to go winner this was definitely the best SC2 game i have ever seen. I couldn't contain myself at the end, i cried. So much determination against such unstoppable terran force.

[Markk311]

Who was the d-bag in the wife beater?

[Deathman1091]

That was absolutely amazing.

[Kingmoron7289]

Man this game really reminded me of broodwar style terran play =)

[luckycandy101]

Spam storms and you win hmm..

[Jonaman1200]

@luckycandy101 Go mass tanks to turtle and you lose.

[grind55]

AWSOME GAME! 

[emersive]

That game was absolutely insane!

[aikland]

I can't say how happy I was to see MaNa held back so strongly. His determination triumphs over Naama. I jumped when the 'gg' was out!

[daniel89cs]

The best match I have ever seen hands down.

[ClinicallyInsane90]

This was the most amazing thing ive ever seen

[Softcloner]

Terrible, terrible damage!

[ChromedCougar]

I think Day9 is loosing his voice over the epicness! lol. Sweet game!

[JJFZ3000]

Marines are ridiculous. Their AA is too good for 50 minerals. All the other races have to spend gas for offensive AA units.

[TicalStarcraft]

@JJFZ3000 Marines cost 50 minerals considering they have at most 55 hp and do a mere 6 dmg a shot compared to the other much stronger aa units which is why they cost higher resources... The game is all about units being different.. they shouldn't all have exactly equal stats, cost exactly the same, performing the same exact function in order for the game to be balanced. And also, my computer chair is a saddle unicorn, erego your argument is invalid.

[Ezi0AuditoreDiFirenz]

@JJFZ3000 What is AA?

[IQTRM]

@Ezi0AuditoreDiFirenz AA = Anti Air
