mouz vs Na'Vi

Team mousesports, filled with some of the top players from Heroes of Newerth going against Na'Vi, the current champions of everything DOTA2. mouz has a lot of potential, but do not have a lot of time playing together while Na'Vi has shown everyone just how good they are together.

Be sure to watch, the game is live now!!!

Sounds oddly familiar.

Na'vi won...

first match:

mousesports : Dazzle(mid), Faceless Void(mid), Venomancer(top), Night Stalker(down), Ancient Apparition(down)

na'vi : Anti-Mage(mid), Tidehunter (roam), Vengeful Spirit(roam), Enigma(top), windrunner(down)

- Dazzle got first blooded & 2nd blooded mid with the help from Tidehunter and Vengeful Spirit on that Anti-Mage, (first gank worked because venge had invi, second one he was out of position), he could have easily avoided that if he lvled up first Shallow Grave instead of Shadow Wave
- really weird play coming out of the Night Stalker from mousesports, wasted half of the night by farming and then when he did finally went ganking failed both of his ganks, 1 due to the fact that na'vi happend to drop a Observer Ward on the lane & saw his incoming teleport and second, well, he got scouted out by Anti-Mage alone so he couldn't manage to kill him, he then returned to his farming. He could have easily ganked and killed Anti-Mage mid if he wanted earlier and, as synderen was saying on the stream, he could've easily picked up those 2 low level roaming supports from na'vi, the Tidehunter and Vengeful Spirit.
- later on, Faceless Void pulled out some really nice ulties but his team failed to make the most out of them.
- Anti-Mage got too fat to handle and Faceless Void couldn't do much against him, manta denied Night Stalker's Crippling Fear so Anti-Mage literally got unkillable for mousesports

:-| I could see that even synderen was disappointed on how his favorite hero, Night Stalker was being played...

- na'vi rly had the lanes under control imo, the only thing that mousesports had as a backup was that Night Stalker and his ganks, but that never came so na'vi made the most out of it

second match

mosesports : Shadow Shaman(mid), Riki(top), Crystal Maiden(top), *can't remember last 2 >.<*
na'vi : windrunner(top), Weaver(bottom), Pudge(mid-roam), Chen(woods-roam), Earthshaker(bottom)

- what can I say, sports let na'vi get most of their top heroes: Pudge, Chen, Weaver, windrunner
- that Riki was a good pick against the na'vi team, but his own team didn't seem capable to support his playstyle to make full use of his effectivenes :-|

this one was more of a stomp imo :-|, Pudge kept the enemy from defending and Chen with the others gave the pushing power

Well in defense of Mouz, Trixi was a top HON player and the other four are sub-top players, not that high but enough to be a threat. They had just picked up their sponsorship from mousesports before this tournament, but haven't been together that long. I really do expect them to be a lot better later in the future.

Trixi with Night Stalker didn't do too well, even though she was ridiculously high farmed at the beginning. It really wasn't until later when Enigma/Windrunner got a significant amount of pushing later, Anti-Mage picked up Hand of Midas, not to mention how Tidehunter pretty much annihilated middle and kept top pressured in the beginning, that Na'Vi pulled so far ahead.

Not the greatest from Mouz by any means.


Not even close.

I watch Mouz in a HON Tournament awhile back and I did notice how much they relayed on Engima's ultimate (Tempest) to push/fight/gank and after I watched that game I did notice some of the same things which really made me think about our game and how we never really got a huge game changing ultimate that could helps us win many fights which we should of.
