Yeah, and hopefully they can make some more majors, it's a shame they didn't qualify for Bucharest or Epicenter or DAC but there are three more Majors they have a decent shout at qualifying for or being invited to, I think. Just gotta have good showings at DreamLeague and GESC Indonesia | ||

Probably not unless they get an actually like Ace or somebody not just a "carry" then he switch to 5 position and abuse their carry to the limits. I doubt having just another carry would work out. | ||

I doubt having just another carry would work out. There are quite a handful of good carries in SEA. Dreamocel, Gabbi, Skemberlu just to name a few. Though I still prefer for this team to stick around until TI. It's not like EE can magically become a better pos5 than PLD. | ||

Solo black hole kuro, get destroyed afterward. by SK's epicenter+ LS bomb. Solo back hole kuro again, get destroyed afterward by sk's epicenter+ LS bomb. it was pretty much the same fight, MC destroyed Universe during black hole while SK+LS destroyed Ursa+Gyro as soon as BKB end. Doing it one time it is fine, but losing a team-fight twice in the same way........ They need to level-up their decision making ASAP. | ||

In the past Shadow shaman was picked as 2, a surprise pick during the 4 protect 1 era, due to his pushing power, the team start grouping up as 4 and push tower as soon as he hit level 6, while the hard carries will use the space created and the gold from tower (same for the rest) to have a superior net-worth over his counter part for the high-ground push,sometimes it worked, other times it failed like today. Also pocket strat, out of the meta pick are common thing in DOTA. | ||

Concerning the last game, I don't think they really had any other choices in many fights than to solo black hole someone and blow them up. In a bunch of the fights Liquid had an aegis advantage, cheeses, refresher shard on SK, etc. Fights would have been much easier without those. Not sure if the early game needed to go as well as it did for Liquid. Also as far as I recall after the first base defence there seemed to be a time where Fnatic could just take control of the game but then they had some fights where Ursa and Enigma didn't yet have their BKBs and Liquid managed to narrowly win, kill Abed to slow him down and get the 2nd aegis. If Fnatic managed to delay at that point just a bit to get the BKBs and contest the rosh, game could have been far easier. Also in the later fights there were some really close moments like Universe barely missing a 2 man BH and only getting one, which then led to Fnatic clumping up to kill the Naix (who would have died earlier had the BH hit him) and GH getting a massive combo off. | ||

Even with the improvements i'd say they still have alot of room to grow. They have great cohesion now but sometimes they do this spit decision thing Now the question is that are we gonna get another EE 2nd place meme or beat secret. | ||
