Lima Major/2023

Team to beat is probably Team Liquid!
But maybe the hometurf helps for the SA-teams, like the new EG lineup?
We will see in a few hours, when the first games start!

Ok, I'm hype too.
But have to say, just tuned in, and I don't like the production!
Mainchannel the game is not fullscreen, but like 2/3 (and the very top is cut off) and the "normal desk" is just talking about stuff and not really the game... (they right now talk about Meepo... not in the game...)
Second channel is currently offline. And before it was without any commentary.
Third channel is working, as intended. But... the titel says "Spirit vs. TSM" but it is the Execration-Tundra game. That should be on the ..
Forth channel, that is currently offline. But just a minute ago, showed the same game!

Not impressed for now!

Not sure about the best options, but the Dota2 reddit at least has the game schedule, but for some reason lacks all of the stream links. The liquepdia page has links to all of the current games.

Didn't manage to watch that much...
Any recommendation of games to check out the VODs?

For me: The Talon-GG games were quite entertaining! Quite long, but that is part of the fun there

Nisha on Pango feels odd. He has good impact but misses half his swashbuckles.

Liquids picks in this last series are a bit different. Trying out drafts since they are locked in for first place. Venge + Arc 1+2.

A bit sad over the end of group A. Were like 10 scenarios for tiebreakers and none occurred.

And Liquid still won those matches! Looking very scary! Still the team to beat; and I'm not sure anyone can do it...

I started to write a post about how close group A is/was and that we will get tiebreakers. ... and lucky for me, I didn't finish it; would have looked foolish now

There is no "Playoff-Bracket-Contest" but here are my predictions anyway:

GG 2:1 Aster
Entity 1:2 EG
TS 2:0 SR
Liquid 2:0 Talon

I am sad. Tournament has been running for 7 hours now. We have had 1.5h in-game time, to be nice 2h including drafts.

First it seems the starting time was off 1h in liquipedia. Then it started 1h late for reasons(?) and every single game has been slow to get started and has had technical issues.

If this is another fast 2-0 they might only be 2,5 hours behind schedule. Which isn't the worst I've seen in a dota tournament, though normally it is due to 3 game series so there is a lot of content.

Nice. I went to bed as normal since I kind of gave up on things. Liquid vs Talon on now.

I remember one Stockholm tournament also going after midnight and me missing the last train home. Though not as late as this. :D
