Warcraft 3: WC3L Finals Preview - Mousesports

By: Jaclyn Lo - Published January 21, 2007 at 8:58 PM EST - Writer Archive
Oleg "TitaN" Kuptsov

Primary Race: Night Elf
WC3L Season X Player Rank: 18th
Home Map: Secret Valley, Turtle Rock

TitaN is a player with a lot of potential. Formerly of teams such as es4x and LanFan, he was recruited by mousesports mid-year, following the fallout of his former team. This paid off handsomely for mouz, especially since their roster of players were slowly dwindling down.

His win loss record of 5:4 won’t turn heads, but for a relative newcomer, this is well and beyond satisfactory. His victories range with players such as DaviN and Abver, on top of that—he also managed to take wins against Night Elf players Moon and Bifrost (aka NangChun). His win against the legendary Moon is debatable—Moon was in an obvious slump early in the year. But the rest of his victories certainly say a lot for the young player.

On TitaN’s losses, its split between the well-known European Elf players Deadman and Creolophus, where he was able to take one map each. Other losses come from Orc player Minhyuk, and a 1-2 loss to American player Nilkfnarf.

Dmitriy "Happy" Kostin

Primary Race: Undead
WC3L Season X Player Rank: 20th
Home Map: Gnoll Wood, Echo Isles

Happy’s 4:5 record isn’t as striking as his teammates, however he does have a positive mapscore of 11 to 10. Happy was able to win against notable players, which include old-school Human player Miou, where he was able to win without dropping a map. Another notable victory is against popular Chinese player suhO; and two other elves, Ohjie and Qazzi, which he all managed to take down 2-0.

His losses contain an incredible list of players: ToD, Satiini and Susiria. His other losses are his first two games ever in the WC3L, against Protois and Glaive.

Happy’s contributions to the team might be small, but still vital to their team. However, Happy will not be able to attend the LAN finals in Germany due to his young age.
