Rtz doesn't look too hot. Mostly cuz its no longer 4 players creating space for him, but him having to create some space for Suma1l.

RTZ's a very emotional player and it's his biggest crux in his play. That and he's addicted to hitting creeps. PPD should take lessons from other sports where you have a very emotional mega star how to keep them focused and not let them become their own worst enemy. Think like Terrell Owens. A fabulous talent who can't get out of his own head but when he does they play incredibly well. RTZ gets frustrated when things don't go his way or he gets put off his game and then its very hard for him to fight back.

Of course this is my armchair psychoanalysis based on interviews and in0-game play so who knows.

FINALLLLL BOYSSSSSSSSSSS
Haha. Nice. Hoping for some more great games!

Also RTZ won game 2 vs liquid on his own as lone druid. Today his gyro 3rd game was key and his jugg game 1 was pretty nice. I think he is playing fine and EG starting to create an identity this patch...at its last tourney for it haha

Which is good because I don't think this patch fits EG as well as other teams.

Their success lies in their ability to adapt faster

That interview was pretty painful, I don't know why people try to interview Sumail when he clearly doesn't want to do them. Props to the interviewer for at least trying to keep it somewhat energetic.

i mean the rest of his team is forced to hype pizza on twitter, the least he could do is a lousy interview

EG got 3rd at Frankfurt, not 2nd.

But yeah, pretty incredible year, EG clear champions.

Really? I would say it was pretty piss poor of him to keep that line up when he clearly was not gonna get his two subjects with him. Better to take it down a notch and try to engage them on subjects you could get a proper answear out of them on insted of just trucking on like it was every other meme inflated hype bs interview.

Then again, I might be biased because I really do not like that interviewer. The energy is nice in doses, when he is on 100% of the time it tiers me out. I have to watch the sodding russian casts when he was casting games. I'm probably getting old and grumpy. Like one in twenty of his jokes even motly connects with me and he drags all the attention away from the game he barely even tries to talk about and on to himself. Same in interviews, hes draging all the attention over towards himself.

Summit was a good tournament win, but EG lost too many leads to feel comfortable. On form EG's game losses are typically steady and predictable declines throughout the game, but at the summit there was some sharp game-turning mistakes from them. I hope they can clean it up a bit with the next patch.

I also think they are just starting to get their new lineup figured out

What kind of subjects do you think he could engage them on that would of gotten a proper answer?

He tried personal things
He tried just general Dota things
He tried team dynamics
He tried opinions of heroes/balance

Not saying I particularly like him as an interviewer, in fact I'd rather most over him, but he kind of went down the path of trying to find a subject they'd be engaged on, and they gave him nothing.
