Germany vs. Norway







Germany's squad: HeRoMaRinE, Socke and TLO



+ Show Spoiler + HeRoMaRinE :

HeRoMaRinE is only a sixteen year old Terran and is considered as a hot prospect. This boy is able to show impressive things and has shown all his skills by winning the EPS Germany 2013 in November.



Socke :

Socke is a historical member of Germany National Team. He has an international experience which can transcend Germany and he has always been one of the major German player, winning three ESL Pro Series Germany in his career and reaching semi-finals of IEM Katowice, Cologne and 2010 MLG Raleigh.



TLO :

TLO is a Zerg player who impressed a lot at the beginning of 2013. Thanks to his very tailored and creative build orders mainly based on roaches against Terrans, he managed to reach the top 5 of WCS Europe and made the whole Europe dream.

Norway's squad: Eiki, Snute and TargA



+ Show Spoiler + Eiki

After having won NM SpillExpo 2013, Eiki can boast he is the National champion in Norway. This protoss is the best player of the rising team Karnage eSports and is able to show very interesting things. Always good at online competitions and in ladder, Eiki could surprise a lot in this NationWars.



Snute

Snute is one the most amazing and respectable player in Europe. Second at HomeStory Cup VII, winner at HomeStory Cup VI, he shined in many other major tournaments, is the last foreigners to have won a major tournament and seems able to beat any player in the world thanks to his very lovely style. His experience in Proleague and in WCS NA could give to Norway a very good weapon to fight in NationWars.



Targa

The Norwegian had a remarkable run to the semi-finals at 2012 DreamHack Open: Valencia and is one of the rare Zergs able to scare all the European players thanks to the very good shape he showed in late 2013.

Russia vs. Ukraine







Russia's squad: Happy, TitaN and sLivko



+ Show Spoiler + Happy

Happy is a true winning machine. He is often in the very first player on ladder and reached the last grid in WCS Europe 2013 thanks to incredible runs. His micro from Warcraft III is really sick and Russia has a wonderful asset with Happy to win NationWars



sLivko

sLivko favors a macro-heavy style that typically involves lots of droning and is also able to surprise his opponents with very powerful and cheesy build orders. Member of the Premier League WCS Europe, he did not manage big runs in 2013. After his semi-finals at the IEM Singapore in 2012, he was considered as one of the top European player and he now aims at a new target with the NationWars.



Titan

The Russian has been one of the most consistent players since the release of StarCraft II: Heart of the Swarm. He has a very good micro and is able to trade his units better than most European players to reach the victory. He shows in WCS 2013 that he is one of the best European players. He really could be the silver bullet of Russian squad.

Ukraine's squad : Bly, DIMAGA and Kas



+ Show Spoiler + Bly

Known for his numerous and tailored cheeses, Bly is one of the strongest Zerg in Europe. Playing for team Acer, his style became very famous and it would be exciting to watch how he can deal with his reputation to surprise his opponents.



Dimaga

The adjective that would be the best to qualify Dimaga’s performance would be astonishing. The Roccat player who reached the semi-finals of 2013 WCS Season 1 Europe is also one of the most sympathetic player in Europe and that’s why he is likely to be one of the foundation of the Ukraine National Team.



Kas

The different 2013 WCS campaigns were not convincing enough to say Kas is back in shape but the Ukrainian Terran is still one of the best value in Europe and is likely to perform in NationWars thanks to his insane macro.

Finals features eleven Premier League players such as Bly, Happy, HeRoMaRinE and Snute.



Only Eiki and have no participations in 2013 WCS. They both showed an impressive skill during the group stage: they managed to carry their team national team by scoring more than four maps.



Germany is one of the strongest nation. The charismatic squad based on the Captain TLO, the experienced Socke and the very skilled HeRoMaRinE can be threatened by the whole Europe and is able to offer the public a very dynamic gameplay. As they have the three races, they can choose the worst match-ups of their opponent and this detail could become very important.



Norway is one of the most underrated nation because all the Norwegian players seem at the peak of their career. Of course, Zergs Snute and TargA. are expected to carry their nation today but Eiki is able to snipe any player with his strong all-ins and was the revelation of Group stage.

Norway is very focused on this event, the three players were very proud of representing their country and their team spirit is quite incredible.



Happy's Russia shows very interesting things during the group stage. TitaN first all-killed Spain with a much better gameplay than what he recently had during WCS qualifiers. sLivko was here to qualify his country against Norway and Happy has a huge motivation for this NationWars and Russia can benefit from Stranger's activity to have the good picks and a motivated squad.



Ukraine is probably one of the scariest nation in Europe. Their squad is really balanced and displays three very big European players with different styles. The Captain DIMAGA has shown he is able to beat everybody and reminded everybody he was the boss. Then, the cheesy Bly should appreciate a lot the format in Best-of-1 and presents a very different style from the macromonster Terran: Kas. Ukraine was a solid squad and each player can save their country.



Predictions:



Both country were afraid of this clash: the Eastern derby between Ukraine and Russia will be amazing to follow. In the other semi-finals, Norway and Germany have shown a very flabbergasting skill thanks to their young players. Today, the stakes are high and we will see who the big players are.
