Well they lost to Complexity VGs and Optic, didn't see the Col and VGs games but they were outplayed heavily in Optic loss. That is not good at all lol. Unless they are a miracle team in bo3 which i hope they are. Their TI place is looking a distant dream

The VG loss, they had good lanes and where winning, but then throw the game away because all farmed away from each other and Reso got really big and out of control and a FV.

In loss to Col the picked a tinker but got BM, was a really good counter to tinker just taking towers away from him to farm. Especially in greedy lineup with Lifestealer and Magnus. They just never came online.

Seems like Fly carried his drafting problems to EG.

If their mid-game execution was better, they'd have won that VGJ.Storm game. They're really looking a lot like an EE-based team, but at least EE starts yelling out orders eventually.

I mean the heroes that are good right now like Ember are bread and butter for Sumail to go hard on yet he gets windranger where he wins his lane and then can't hard carry

EG looked really shaky and weird at times in the IMT, Sumail dives way too deep way too many times, altho they still won the game, couldve been a lot cleaner. Hopefully the team can reach the playoffs and head into TI.

Honestly, despite the poor itemization I think their win vs Complexity in game 2 is really big. They didn't tilt, they kept their shit together for 80 plus minutes, and managed to close out the game despite it's ridiculousness, which has been EG's weakness for a while.

Woooooow, just caught up on the vods, beautiful! 3/4 games were complete steam rolls and game 2 vs Complexity was weird and well weird. Like someone posted the itemzation was an interesting view point lol. However, to win that game with a level 14 witch doctor as your only stun was pretty impressive vs a mass team fight line up etc etc.

S4 was also pretty poor in the bo1 group stage i thought, missed many spells and struggled in all 3 loses and other games. However yesterday boy was he on fire! He out CS'd Sumail in the laning stage in 2 out of the 4 games which is some going!

Now they are at TI, they can start to build some hype and grind some scrims. I mean they made Immortals look awful yet Immortals beat Optic and well....could be good times ahead :D

Oh also Life of a Genius was released again on Friday? I watched it yesterday and it is when S4 and Fly first join up with the squad and Fly gives a pretty good interview. Plus they explain the decision making on the kicks.

OG Coach/Player 7ckngmad gave an interview with JoinDota that was released and it is very interesting.

Main points i like are the fact that EG just wanted to bring in S4 originally but Fly ASKED to join EG as well, which is amazing.
I thought like others that maybe if this team didn't place top 3 at TI or do very well it might "fold" again or something, but with Fly asking to play for EG maybe he is going to stay and he has burnt the bridges at OG or something with the way 7ckngmad talks in the interview.

He also moans saying EG were tapping up players left and right and Sumail and Rtc weren't going to play together if they couldn't find stuff etc etc but that all seems a bit better idk. But my main thing is there is hope this team could continue to play together post TI8 which would be awesome with the potential it has!

Do you mean better or bitter. I do think he is a bit bitter myself, especially about Fly was kind of the core of OG and a team build about the friendship of Fly and N0tail and Fly's gf who is also the manager. And Mad seem close also having been with them for years. Can understands if you get bitter with them leaving so close to TI qual. I like both teams and seems to work out for the best of them.
I can't see much difference with Sumail and Rtz wanting to play together then Fly and N0tail. But you can sometimes wonder if they suit each others playstyle and with a lot of different rooster change bringing in very good players that if this doesn't work out one of them should bite the bullet next rooster change. But lets hope that EG will make a good run at TI.

Can you imagine EG having a bad TI placement? EG Armageddon.

Also, that is pure speculation by 7uckingMad on whether or not Sumail/Arteezy were going to separate. It was an inference based on how much they were asking other players to join the team.

What is a bad placement for EG. I think a top 8 is ok, but kind of also depends on other teams placements. If the finish below Optic or NA vgj team that would not be so good, also OG would be bad as they kind of poached two players from them that was replaced by free agents. Especially if one of these teams knocks them out.

We haven't seen enough from eg to guess how well they should perform, i mean, they do have potential, but all we've seen was supermajor and the lineup was 1 week old
