Read above. I do not see this team beating Liquid or VP. That is another 5th to 6th place finish at a major? I do not see these 5 players doing any better at next TI, than they did in August.

Sure, cite TI8 is faraway.

you answered yourself there
this is a new patch
Right now VP Liquid Secret and probably a couple chinese teams are above them
5-6th place would be really good right now!

NA is just a weak region once again
Fear is getting the hang of things
Sumail is slumping a bit
they got a few months before shuffling starts

And they did really well in NA qualifiers don't forget
Showed some great plays and synergy vs worse teams than the top5

Short of PPD who plays for fun coming back what swaps would you suggest anyways

Oh look, people are calling for a disband already, I've never seen it in this thread before. Now we only need someone to say that they need to bring back ppd

Sucks that they lost to Secret, I hope they can bounce back in the LB

I mentioned disband because I think this group of players have peaked together, and it's not at the level they want to be.

EG used to be "figure it out", but I do not think that applies to this iteration.

EG vs VP tomorrow for top 4 spot. Going to be tough but we have a stupidly good record vs them. Some nice rest now and come back tomorrow lunch time for a bo3. Hopefully can do some work.

EG for a while feels like they never leverage or risk properly which comes down to team decisions on what to do when. There's barely any chances for EG's members to do anything with how nervous they play or when they choose to commit to a fight. Feels like teams just keep pushing the issue until EG does something tentative or half-commited then they're out of the game.

Fear isn't and has never been a good captain. Great player though.

Edit: What finish do you think EG is expecting? I think they can get 4th, and if they're lucky, 3rd. (They'd have to beat Newbee, VP, or Liquid to hit 3rd).

I knew they could do it.

Yeah now they probs gonna go up against old enemies Newbee, in which every series is always stupidly close vs them. Hopefully we can get a good start in that series. Top 3 is perfect! Come on boisssss

Uni was such a god in game 1, and what a comeback it was, holy crap. I can't wait for their next matches

EG vs Na'Vi.

Cr1t is the unsung hero for me so far, man he has been making plays, both on E-spirit and Slardar, setting up for great pickoffs and teamfights both games against VP.
Its gonna be a good series vrs Navi, but we have good chance for top3 now. letts see ;-)
