Please keep in mind that match fixing accusations still aren't OK. |

did they confirm EG-DK on stream or something? as far as i know it's not decided yet but i missed the game + stream I thought that the brackets themselves were confirmed when they announced the format, but the games haven't been played yet.

Is the 11 minute match the fastest in TI history?

Ya it is. Just as the game ended, it was said on the side of the game thing.

Im a bit torn atm who i'd actually prefer DK to face off against. If this was pre TI4 i'd say Vici any day of the week. But Vici has proven themselves strong and actually found a style which they are comfortable in. DK lost to EG at The Summit, but won took the bo1 here at Seattle. And EG has also shown that they are still very strong here at TI4. I can't even decide.

You could be right, however I thought that when DK was facing off Vici at day 3 they were aware of Vici's very aggressive style, because they deployed it against NewBee with great success. But DK somehow ignored it and played right into Vicis hands and lost the game at 15-20 minutes aswell...

Both games between DK and C9 were really crazy. C9 seriously went full YOLO with that second game.
Also being nitpicky here, but the picture of this thread on the frontpage is a little disingenuous. That's from C9 beating LGD, not losing to DK.

(Sorry, Burning. I love ya, man, but your drafting needs some improvement.)

DK vs EG is going to be really good set, going to be tough for either team. damn. good to see DK recovering very well from poor day 1. wonder what iceiceice may be true that playing phase 3 is better than missing out. interesting

I was thinking this myself and it's pretty annoying since they clearly didn't give it their all in their draft in the games against DK and the picture implies otherwise.

I'm pretty sure the 2nd game was Lanm drafting. 1st game might've been Burning; I wasn't around when the drafting happened, but I wouldn't be surprised.

I think LaNm has been picking since Day 2 for DK hasn't he?
I remember reading some where since LaNm started picking, DK hasn't lost. (I THINK or lost like not as much)
Edit: DK has been... 8-2 since Day 2 with LaNm picking, now 10-2 since beating C9 in Phase 3.
