Now for teams to be successful you need a minimum of 2 proven strats. Then you need a strong Tony combo,a Meepo player, both QW and WE Invoker, at least 2 Tusk players, and a really good Dazzle. Funny thing is that's OG. GGWP Puppey just couldn't outdraft them with his first pick Slardar. | ||

OG on the other hand didn't play ESL quals because I believe Fly was still on vacation then or something. They didn't qualify for Nanyang or WCA, so obviously their schedule was freed up for October apart from MLG, and they also knew that they were not going to China in December, so it was easier for them to sign up for tournaments that have LANs soon like DL or Defense. | ||

When the mid meta was to run around the map making plays he was good. Miracle already shown he can do both of this things. And you just assume, that meta will stay within borders of 2 those things? I'm quite sure meta could move in another direction. | ||

It was honestly unintentional satire or something - "How dare he say that secret is worse than OG, secret only lost a bo5 to them, not like FIVE bo5s that you need to really be sure" | ||

I think there's a reddit thread that's probably upvoted to the sky by now. Basically he thought EHOME and EG were the better teams, and them plus OG were the top 3 of the tournament. Don't really see the drama behind it. They almost lost to both those teams, whereas the Secret matches probably felt more one-sided to him. | ||

Supported him since danish mouz days. Always said alliance should have picked him up when they were trying out players. My main concern with og is whether they can sustain their performances, because my analysis is that they have been heavily reliant on draft advantage rather than outplays. Good thing is that they ain't as one dimensional as cdec and alliance 2013, so it would take a while before they get figured. | ||

In general though it's always the same thing when players give their opinions. People are all up in arms if they don't show fake humility or whatever and say "they are a great team I respect them a lot" about everyone. This cr1t thing was hardly an exception. I'm sure the comments will be a source of many memes in the future if OG were to lose to Secret. | ||

Of course their group wasn't the toughest and they got Mineski first round because they upset EHOME in groups, but after that they beat VG and EG so the finals spot was hardly undeserved.

Saying that secret had an easy road when they beat VG and EG to reach the finals is really quite unreasonable. It shows still how immature the scene (or just him) is. | ||

It's mostly just the people who talk as if this or that sentence reveals a player's character and who start to attack the person rather than just talking about the topic at hand that go over the top. Of course fans are free to use whatever criteria they want to decide whether they like a player or not, but it doesn't mean they should start harassing the player because he said something they don't agree with. | ||

Saying that secret had an easy road when they beat VG and EG to reach the finals is really quite unreasonable. It shows still how immature the scene (or just him) is. For one thing he didn't say Secret was in the finals because their road was easy. He said he thought their road was "pretty easy" which, when compared to all other semi finalists (and especially to his own team) it arguably was. And when you look at the different series you can see how he comes to his other conclusions; OG certainly had a lot more difficulties against EHOME and EG than against Secret. People are just trying to stir up needless drama (surprise). I like how Envy handled it when confronted with this (non-)issue. Also I would like to remind you of Puppeys own words before the final: "we definitely make more mistakes right now than in any other tournament we've played...". | ||
