yes this is stupid for those who have work on monday, in terms of competitive "fairness" i think it was a better call to push the finals to the next day. the first reason is LGD is the loser, winner is coming into the finals either REALLY fatigued or they are completely warmed up, while the winnners bracket winner is either playing cold. there is an effect that happens to the players that if you don't have that constant pressure of a hard game it doesn't allow you to really wake up and react quicker. as a amateur tournaemnt player, it's extremely diffifcult for me to play at my highest level if i don't have scrims or practice before the game.

on another note
contrary to popular belief, i believe VG might win it even though i'm rooting or newbee. there's something about their consistency that makes them quite difficult to read. newbee on the other hand imo are BETTER vs players who are known to be a dominant force, kinda like the team power rangers in that sense. what's really interesting to me though is the fact VG and newbee were pretty much a tier 2 team prior to TI. newbee maybe not, but they're basically ex-tongfu players + a tier 2 LGD captain.

I think you cant simply blame the void pick for EG's loss. I mean it worked out well in the 2nd game, why not go for it in the third? I feel what lost them the game was not giving it to universe

Have two team fight ults with massive cool downs is what killed them. Once they used them, VG just walked down mid. Also not protecting their jungle from getting WTF warded to death hurt enigma to much. It was as a super greedy draft and one that started out super greedy, since they locked in void and enigma first.

They could have drafted DK and been ready to party every 70 seconds. But they decided to go for super late game glory and got rekt.


They had enigma and void in the 2nd game as well and had the same issue. But universe chronos kept them in the game
The problem was midas alch and mason void

No, its going for the same draft twice in a row and expecting the extremely skilled professional team you are against not to catch on. Even if they put Mason on that void, I don't think he can save that game. They got out drafted and out played hard.


yea i know but i mean, i read some people say it was just the void pick. and it wasnt JUST the void pick, it was the whole draft.

edit: nvm i worded it poorly. I said before just giving it to universe would have been enough but i was at the same time thinking about just changing the draft going void offlane and stuff. My bad
