They had several weaknesses going into the previous tournament - PPD not being able to play Chen that well, Universe not being especially effective on a farm off, etc. But with a month to practice and think about the game, I want to see what they came up with. They've always been the best team at attacking an existing set of strategies.

ill be honest it was very strange for me to see ppd on chen instead of fear. chen is not a very good hero if you play him as a hard 5 (which ppd often does) primarily because you want to get mek and other items (rather than wards and smokes) on him asap. also fear so far has been playing the farming 4 position and jungler (enigma/sk/mirana) and he also has some of the best micro-skills on EG. i think ppd chen at MDL was more so an experiment than anything else. i think if EG pick chen at shanghai it will almost certainly be fear playing it.
