After six days of exciting action, the West Qualifier for The International 2013 has concluded, with mousesports securing the fourteenth spot for the main tournament that will take place in August. Headed to Seattle at the same time in a different capacity is dd.Dota , who are the runner-ups that will be competing for the final wild card slot that will be determined by a showmatch at the Valve Corporation headquarters immediately before the primary tournament. It was through this same contingency plan that mouz was given the opportunity to participate in The International last year.

This spot secured by mouz was earned in an arduous manner, via a sequence of unpredictable matches. After being thoroughly thrased by Evil Geniuses in Group B, mouz had a rough start in the brackets portion, by getting knocked into the lower bracket by dd. A new side to mouz was seen soon after, however, when they secured two of the most one-sided matches against RoX.KIS in the lower bracket final. All potentially lingering doubts about mouz's resolve were quashed in the grand final, where mouz soundly defeated dd in a 3-1 showdown.
