Well, between Empire still having a bit of power and the resurgent Navi, I think the days of CIS being VP's stomping grounds are effectively over. It's good if the region overall ends up being more competitive and it gives VP and the other teams a reason to stay on their toes.

Well, that must have been an off-day or perhaps they didn't care much about Starladder. VP still looks much more than a cut above than other CIS teams, the question now is how do they fare against international competition.

On a side note, I hope VP gets more direct invites, this way it helps the CIS region to grow like NA did when EG was getting invited every tournament.

Congrats to VP, well played!
Can't wait for more VP vs Liquid matches, next time it should be in a proper Bo5 Finals.

Post-victory interview, pretty fun, Solo is still completely shaken. English subs.

I think it's safe to say now that in the 4 position swap, Virtus Pro got the better end of that trade. I know much of that is because they've looked much more stable as a team, but Rodjer is actually doing a lot of work. Let's see them take another ESL major!

It also looks like the roster move has helped Pasha somewhat, because before he would often have less farm priority than Lil and now he is playing better than ever imo.

There is only one person who can beat Solo at being the best CIS captain, and that is ArtStyle, sadly for us and luckily for you, you have both of them.
Congrats guys!

Think prior to the player exchange, VP was arguably the best team in the world. Then they got better. Suspect they will be back to back major champions, ggwp

Yeah today was really impressive. The pace set by VP in game 1 was amazing and what's even more amazing is that they always had a follow up plan. They got a kill bot, after a smoke rotation, then immidiately TP'd top to put pressure there. Was a joy to watch even if my team lost.

Stark contrast to their csgo roster that needed change a year ago and is now the laughing stock of competitive counterstrike.

VP were one of the best teams this season but they knew they could be even better if they added Rodjer to the lineup.
