Depending on how H2O (my clan) will play this evening against uebelst-gamynG at the WCG National Finals Qualification, my quite new team might be allowed to play at the LAN Finals in Cologne. Since were pretty unknown, no sponsor is helping us out at the moment, which is pretty sad, this hardware is definitely one step ahead for us :D.

My arms and fingers would really apreciate it if I get a new mouse or keyboard. I hope I won't need to pause after a couple of games then any more. :)

I should win the graphics card, because I'm gonna give it to SexyBamboe, so he is closer to finally start streaming. I'm dead serious.

Hey my name is eLiyac12 ,
Since I was a kid I liked the PC category, but I wasnt able to play with strong computer and gear because of money problems. I am playing on dota 2 with very low graphics and runs it on 30-35 FPS (on fights its drops to 15)and playing with Microsoft chip mouse(8 $) and Silverline keyboard that I bought from the market.
I always wanted to play like the Pro's with top gear and to enjoy from the game's. I am currently stopped playing DotA 2 because I cant play normally. I will be very happy if You guys will choose me and gift me some of the prize's.
Thanks eLiyac12, and good luck for the others.

The reason that I should win the prices is simply the fact that I'm fairly average player who needs all the possible edge he can get in order to keep up with better players. I think new graphics card could give the improvement I need. Currently I have to play with lowest graphic settings.
Also I don't even own a mouse - I play with the touchpad of my laptop! I believe playing with a good mouse could increase my abilities as a player alot and more importantly decrease the frustration of my team mates even more and I wouldn't have to hear comments like "How can you missclick your Viper ulti to their courier?!" quite so often..
Please help me, I'm a nice guy and tired of getting so much flame on my tail.
And yes, It's is possible to play with a touchpad - just a bit tough on your fingers.
