Doesnt upper bracket help you at all?

Nope, it was like that last 2 TIs, but not this one for some odd reason.

While an upper bracket advantage may be fairer in for the teams, having a completely neutral start is a better spectacle for the fans, rather than having a huge amount of hype for what could be just two games. Valve also greatly increased the percentage of the prizepool that second place receives which sort of balances it out.

You would make it a Bo7 with an advantage, not a Bo5 with an advantage... It generally always is +1 more game to win when you give an advantage.

That becomes an overwhelming advantage for the WB team, as LB has to play a potential 10 championship games consecutively. Little much.

Hum? 6 is max. Currently 5 is max.

My bad, 9; they have to play the losers finals first. It's not so bad when you take into consideration the +1 advantage I guess (only 1 more game), but it still seems a little crazy

So now it's 8 games and then it's 9?

As I said, just 1 more game, at the most. It's not crazy at all, it's too little of an advantage already. I personally would go for double Bo5s to be completely fair.

Loda's said in the past that he's the worst caster in esports and gets worse every day. I think he's allowed to be biased.

Alch vs. Gyro. Doesn't Gyro lose this badly?


Gyro doesn't man fight like that. What Gyro will do is burst the other 3-4 heroes down then do a 4-5v1 against Alch.

Everybody always says Xboct is the weakest link but he's carried them so hard through both these games. He played so extremely well this game, being n01 farm with 3 alliance following him, so all the pressure was on him. He's a top carry without a doubt.



Hvost almost caused them to lose. I don't see how anyone can say that Hvost was the reason why they won when KKY the last game was the one catching S4 twice in key moments.

Kuroky probably made the clutch plays that won Na`Vi the game at the end but XBOCT definitely played well this game.



No. Def not. There were alot of key moments where Hvost almost lost them the game. He got bailed out massively by KKY and Dendi when he got caught a couple of times being way too aggressive as usual.

S4 just massively choked a couple of key moments.

He was supposed to make those super aggressive plays. He bought a Heart and an AC and knew he had the Wisp's overcharge to back him up, and he took advantage of it to pull off really aggressive plays that he wouldn't make otherwise.



So he goes charge into 5 people with only Wisp as support?

Did he die? No. It worked.
