The team is playing so well. . . Hoping they come prepared for the Bo3s because that''s where things will really grind.

Well, EG has always preferred Bo3s and Bo5s to group stages.

So guaranteed Top 8 after only 2 days must be a dream for PPD.
Average means I'm better than half of you.

Sumail interview. he's pretty nervous though


Sumail said that his team is passive and that he will never play that way. This is good to hear because that's his job as a true initiator mid. It seems to be working.

He is actually pretty right about being compared to RTZ. Lane might be the same but the role on the team is pretty different.

Hopefully Sumail learns soon that he can't just play one style. Maybe it's nice for him to have a certain kind of hero or narrow role just starting out in professional Dota, but in the long run it's going to benefit him if he's open to new heroes and playstyles.

It seems to be working just fine for s4. Of course it is always good to have many options and strategies available to you and your team, but it's also fair to say that being a spacemaker is a different but equally valuable role in a team.

He is so young and talented, as he has the opportunity to play on a team as big as EG, im sure he will do whatever he needs to do to addapt to the game and theier strategies...

I see what you're saying. I consider S4 to be a different kind of player though. He can take any core role and play virtually any hero, even though his "space making" role remains the same through most games. We saw him on a safelane Nyx vs. EG - I just hope Sumail starts to develop that type of versatility (and has the opportunity to do so).

Safe lane nyx is still a space creator. s4 is a great player but it is rare for him to go onto a "farming mid" (like arteezy Naga) and have an amazing game. It's just not his style. Not saying he's going to feed, but as in that nyx game is not an example of him taking a different core role. It's the same role in a different lane. Welcome to prove me wrong, but that's one of the reasons Alliance was struggling so hard.

As a vivid QoP mid player, that FB against RTZ was just a WTF moment. I'm pretty sure PPD got really mad after that.
