Why should they look happy while playing? Football players don't run around grinning like idiots when they play a match.

So any other fellow EG fans predicting a 2-0 crushing defeat by the hands of Newbie?

I should also add that not once in my entire time during my EG fandom which is almost since inception have I thought like this about the boys but I seriously think they dont even have a chance to take a single game off this opponent. #Feelsbadman #timesrtough

football (no not talking about handegg) isnt dota, the industry and people behind and around, the games and everything is complete different.

€dit: they could easily do this, but it depends if they play as a team with a plan or like headless chicken.

Exaggerating much? Feels like the EG of old was way worse than this iteration..

If they play to their strenghts they can win it easily, there was once a time when EG was the China slayer and I hope they can do it again.

I think EG realizes, they have to perform. It's like a solemn clarity. They have expectations to make a top 4, specifically a top 2.

I like Arteezy, and Sumail especially, standing behind Fear during the draft to give and receive input.

I 100% agree with you man i thought the exact same thing when i saw this i said wow ok finally they look engaged and focused. im excited again so maybe lowering expectations is the key here so pleasant surprises triumph over expecting to steamroll every tourney which lets be real, as eg fans thats what we usually do lol. expect btw not actually steamroll.

Im somewhat happy with how the series turns out, we really dominated game 1, and early game 2, that's not the worst scenario (i was expecting newbee to crush EG, although they have been underperforming too lately).

I can really see the boys got confidence now, especially during teamfights, and game 1 shows the perfect rosh fight for EG (they usually died fighting near the rosh pit, and ended up giving the enemy the roshan and cheese). Results were harsh tbh, could be better, but at least they know now that they are capable of becoming tier 1 again (on the same level as TL, VP, etc).

Either way, i guess this patch really hurts the team, esp sumail, excited to see the new patch and how the boys will roll.

Yeah I mean seriously with the way things have been going I think we, well I will only speak for myself here actually so "I" definitely do wish he would care more or atleast show me as one of his teams fans that the loss does bother you jeez. My passion as a fan isnt being met by the players but I do agree with the guy that said they did show signs of "getting it" in those games against Newbie, whatever "it" is. I dont know not really making sense here just kinda a mix of emotions after that match... kind of let down and dissapointed but also a touch of this feeling that maybe something was definitely happening for them as a team that they can take away from that loss.

EG clumps up too much. In 3-man situations, they're still about the best, but when we get 5-man pushes, they were able to be blown up. It only takes once when you're in a high-leverage situation for it to turn a game. EG went 1-2 on those situations against Newbee. All 3 times between Newbees T2 and T3.

They played quite well, just not well enough it seems. The new patch is just around a corner and I hope it will shake things up for them in a good way.
