Yep, was randomly thinking about the same thing a couple of days ago. It doesnt feel the same as rooting for the old C9 :D. I think we were affected by the stockholm syndrome inflicted upon us by old C9.

it's a beautiful feeling isn't it

Nice to see a team that got "screwed" in the shuffle making it to the top so fast and playing so good , this iteration has less ego and 1 leader which is the best case scenario in the team also each individual is motivated as hell to prove themselves tier 1 players (which each and everyone of them aside from puppey seen much criticism along the way).
good luck in the GF secret fans

Is anyone aware of whether interviews with local or Chinese media have been posted anywhere? After every game there's pictures of someone from the team being interviewed on Secret's social media but not sure if they are available online anywhere.

As far as the game against VG goes it'll be interesting to see the draft. Secret went for the same opening in both games last time, curious to see if VG will choose to ban Ember/WR and whether Secret will even go for it this time.

VG might spend a pick on WR if they have confidence in fy to play it. itll be an interesting series but secret will probably take it

I can't find the interviews too just check it on the previous broadcast from BTS twitch . Hope that you can actually hear the interview (fucking sound problem) cause i literally did not hear any interview live.

As for the draft i assume Slardar, Ember and WR will be taken they seem to be super confident with first pickiing cores now. They are gonna take which one or two of the heroes that doesn't get banned or picked by the enemy.

I don't think it's worth picking support WR in the first phase

i think it's probably more practical to let ember through and try to counter it by winning lanes and pressuring him. vg destroyed cty's ember yesterday

Feels like they trust each other a great deal and are just generally on the same page. They work really well as a team, and they're better than the sum of their parts, and the parts are pretty good anyway.

IDK how to deal with supporting a team that's a favourite in tournaments though. And that I can feel confident will win if they have a 40k lead. This is so confusing.

As a mega EE-fangay its about fucking time i watch them win after they get a large lead. It was so soul crushing to see them lose either doing stupid shit or losing because they got out played late game.

I don't mean the ones on stream but for example here is a pic of Puppey having an interview somewhere backstage after the VG series but not sure if one can find it anywhere.

Hopefully, they'll earn enough money to hire someone to iron Misery's shirt.

To answer my earlier questions about the interviews the EE one was linked on reddit and I found the Puppey one too.

EE after VP series
Puppey after VG series

Awesome stuff. In Puppey's interview at 7:10 he says "RTC? TI5?". :D
