Alliance lost 0:2 to Entity, but games were closer than initially expected. W33 was popping off on Lina in both games, but Nikobaby was quite underperforming...at least in game 2. If you are ahead or even against an Alch lineup around the 30 minute mark + having the better core matchup with Slark, then you should not be throwing it away like they did at the radiant triangle. Stormstormer recovered pretty damn well on the Tinker and was an absolute menace after the 30 minute mark, providing defense matrix with 25% cooldown reduction to all of his allies was just to much to overcome for Alliance at the end.

Both Nigma squads bowing out today or will Nigma make another lower bracket run? Brame and the winner of IVY/DGG should be doable for Nigma, but cannot see them winning against Secret/Entity if they not drastically improve.

Nigma.Sea is already out now. At least they gave us a Meepo game for entertainment (and their map win!)

Let's see what the "main team" is doing. In a few hours we know more!

Nigma really struggling against Brame. Won Game 1 on the back of a broken carry hero with FV, but getting dumpstered in Game 2. Deciding game incoming...

Ffs, they are playing sooo goddamn sloppy in the second game. Only GH is playing on an acceptable level.

I only caught game 1 of entity vs alliance and it was a pretty close game. Not bad considering that entity may be the strongest team in the qualifier. w33 should be able to carry the rest through gorgc and co, not sure about into the breach though.

People hate on w33?? He's clearly carrying alliance in all the games I watch. Only problem is he's walking on a tight rope because if he steps wrong the rest of the team can't pick up the slack.

maybe giving players that don't scrim their grandmaster heroes isn't the best idea

Liquid won, as expected, but Goonsquad had a good showing! I see them as a serious contender!

// edit:
Entity looking good! ... or Secret bad!? not sure...
But Nigma, you have to deal with DGG, want to see the Nigma-Secret el-classico!

Also: After a loooong day yesterday, for now it seems we close out a little bit early!

I'm not

But I hope for 3 maps and great and close matches!

// edit:
Ok, map 1 was nice. Nigma played well in the beginning but had lack of damage later on. Could you please pick a right-click hero? Thank you!

Also isn't this now two TIs in a row without Nigma? It's weird to think that top players like Miracle are missing out on multiple TIs...
