Sorry for lack of updates throughout the day yesterday. I also won't be able to do updates today due to 'murican holiday. If anyone would be so kind to post polls for the games today that would be awesome and I'll try and update at the end of the day.
Good luck to C9 today. Hopefully when I check at the end of the day they'll be in the finals.

C9 for the win. Time for EG to come in second.

VP polar doesn't conform to meta
case in point: they picked CK

picking ember so early is always a bad idea

MATUMBAMAN is a really good caster.

I love the hero, but agaisnt lycan ? He was never going to have enough time to get the farm (which is so slow at doing so)

EG vs tier 2 teams is so boring. They just can't handle the push. Need some clowny games from secret or c9.

Well after seeing C9 drow-visage win against secret storm who snowballed so hard that the hero got 10 minutes orchid and 23 minute bloodstone.
Have a little faith.

FATA Pugna now this is new. C9 got a lot of pushing power.
|
|
|
|
|
feels like DK would have been a better fit for fata than pugna .. both smashes towers at some kind of timing
although pugna smashes skywrath and zeus with the wards but DK stun is good
|
rofl this is quite the start for VP
|
I love watching G catch fire
|
I don't like c9 laning. Pugna would have slaughtered zeus mid as long as he adjust his skill points.
|
can EE go 0-12 like he did on gyro vs alliance
|
C9 is playing like they have no direction in game ..

Going visage+drow+venge+2 other range hero means a lot of range damage complement to each other ya, but 5 ranged hero are also super squishy.
And boy oh boy dont Ember+centaur+zeus+skywrath+ET punish squishy ranged heroes....

VP: Pick Drow/Visage. We dare you.
C9: OK!
Welp.
Eh, you can see C9 were really hesitant to go for it. Difficult decision, I guess. Not too worried about the series.
|
I feel like that game would have gone completely differently if PLD went straight back bot after that 2 minute invis rune instead of awkwardly wandering between mid and bot for 30-45 seconds.
|
|
|
I'd still be surprised if C9 manage to lose this, but that was a fucking silly game

Yea, not sure about the draft in general but that game went really downhill fast because PLD's rotations didn't work at all. He left bot leaving more room for VP to do stuff there. They did kill the Zeus once, but after that he was standing behind EE not knowing there was a ward there, and right as he went around to gank Zeus again the SWM just ran up mid and killed EE. Then PLD went top and died again to SWM+Centaur. And at this point bottom lane VP has had time to get decent farm, Zeus is ahead of the Drow (who got ganked again when the ET came mid) and keeps him down, and the Centaur has good levels although the lane was pretty hard farm wise. And unlike when c9 has Puck or something with this lineup, this time all they had was essentially heroes who can run at towers and very limited gank or counter gank potential so when they screw up early it's very hard to do anything.
|
Thing is, that PLD mistake in rotation could easily have been any number of things. You pick a draft like that, you're relying on playing it perfectly, which is unrealistic.

This is not ice3 timber for sure.
Every pickoff is so huge. You are behind in networth but can be considered "ahead" when playing Naga.

The only real difference is that EG plays relatively normally 4v5 while RTZ does his shit while EE naga requires sacrifices at the altar for 30 minutes until he gets 3 items
also Envy's micro is sloppier than RTZ's

i think EE naga is better though .. he control creep equilibrium better and EE doesn't fall under the afk farm that rtz often does on some of his carry heroes
although you are right about rtz micro being better

this timber has been ganked in the same spot like 5 times.

Can't remember the last time I saw a timber being this useless after having a good start

idk C9 does this vs all their enemies from time to time .. even to EG
this is the signature cloud 9 gameplay
|
The real question is how the VP members manage to sleep at night after playing this kind of game
|
this is just unbelievable. theyre literally just standing around alone waiting to get ganked.
|
i actually don't vp's gameplan is that bad, and the commentator's are actually quite a bit off
vp never had the option to go highground, they don't really have the heroes to do it
vp just needed to feed a bit less, or rather bait some more of those ganks and they'd be in a far better spot
|
Difference between EG and C9 is c9 picks are much greedier. It shows in their first 2 picks. Example is venge which suck in contesting lane, but 1 of the best supports in mid game for teamfights and counter initiation.
|
Feels like VP went full deer on the headlights mode.
|
Does flutter works on illusions if you activate it before spawning illusions. That would be sick

This game hurts me physically.
The decision making, the positionning, the item choices of VP makes me want to enter a rehab clinic.

Dagon 5 on jakiro + eblade and dagon 1 on nyx. Pubstomp gaming!
|
Anyone has pbm with twitch today? It's freezing for 5 seconds every two minutes and I don't have any pb usually, tried different res and different streams 
|
Yeah true, though what i want to emphasize is rtz almost always has his early farm secured. In comparison, EE usually has a tougher time in lane most of the time.

Drop that diffusal and get AC on naga....

I think a lot of people are overlooking the cleverness of C9s draft. Its a 4 protect 1 with naga, but the "4" are heroes who really good at ganking and can also save naga.
VP has to split their heroes up in order to deal with the split push, and c9 has been ganking them very aggressively. During the time when c9 turned the game around, all the ganks occured on VPs side of the river. Once they got the kill they retreated super quickly with blink/euls/tp shenanigans

AC isn't super bad on Naga but it certainly isn't as optimal as a crit, a 2nd bfly, maybe even 2nd heart

Skadi, Eblade, 2nd butterfly, even diffusal 2 is better than ac. And crit is bad too.

I didn't see that he didn't get diff2 lols
Crit is worse than diff2 vs non-BKB but Envy could tryhard, illusions with radiance and then swap radiance for crit on main naga lels

No, but clearly they need to make a courier and call it "Throw" to purge themselves of their bad luck. It worked for EG.

i wish bruno would just never cast a game again
|
Well losers final is either a rematch vs VP or (unlikely) a bo5 vs EG. Should be fun either way.
|
Lol did Bruno just say VP was going to lose to EG or is the schedule of VP vs EG on the calendar off?

pretty sure csgo is drawing a way bigger crowd

From what I understand DH is practically the TI of CSGO so not shocking that it's drawing a huge crowd. It's also at ~250k on twitch.

idk I think this is one of the better non-pro trios of the tournament, although that just speaks to how mediocre the casting has been.

You never know if EG might pull a C9.

Scariest part is Universe Void didn't even have to do much that game, Enigma DP and Jak wrecked house.

Fair enough, guess I can't really talk after the C9 VP series from today.
Still weird seeing a team have beyond-Fantasy GG timing

Kind of unfair that EG had a legal map hack. Ultra fast Rosh led to VP being out of position for easy triple kill.

Not much competition for EG without secret

LoL, we are not a very happy team in general.
Confirmed that EG is powered by the lack of joy.

This tournament is shaping up to be the worst one of 2014 so far. Only a single top tier team is a recipe for a disaster.
Why bother watching a tournament when you already know who will win it? No wonder the crowd is so small and silent

Yeah. This tournament has been pretty boring thus far. The Summit can't come soon enough.

Well, if there is only one team in the west that can give eg a challenge, that is not exactly DHs fault ...

When its C9 not a top tier team?
The hell?
You realize they've beaten EG 2-0 this very exact lan right?
Ranked #6 in the world, barely behind Secret / EG
What is your definition of a top tier team? Are you for real?

C9 rarely ever beats EG when it matters.

I'm pretty confident c9 will give EG a run for their money tomorrow. c9 can be more vulnerable to losing to "lesser" teams due to the way they draft and also them just having occasional brainfarts, but against EG they've constantly matched up pretty well. Sure EG has won all the 3 playoff series they've played after TI, but c9 has always taken a map at least.

Thats how a lot of sports and competitive stuff works. This year EG is better. Maybe next year C9 will be better. It doesn't make them a scrub tier team.
Now TT, however.....(shots fired)

Not many teams beat EG "when it matters" considering they've won WEC and SL and barely lost to VG at ESL after TI. c9 lost 2-1 at SL and ESL and 2-1, 2-0 at WEC finals. Another final they played was earlier in the spring at Monster Invitational or whatever when c9 still had Sing and Demon was standing in and then EG won 3-2 in the finals if I remember correctly. I don't think they've played each other in the playoffs of any other LANs, so every time c9 has still taken maps of EG.

I actually consider C9 a top tier team. My fanboyism required me to defend EG's honor.

Thoughts on VP vs C9 tomorrow? I missed their series earlier today (was at work T_T)

C9s great, it's always scary to play them. Saying they aren't t1 is beyond idiotic.
However I can't actually remember the last time C9 beat EG when it mattered.

If "when it mattered" means an elimination game on LAN, it hasn't happened I think. But it has been "only" 4 events in the span of 9 months or so: Monster, WEC, ESL and SL. If we talk about LAN generally, c9 won here at Dreamleague 2-0, they won at TI groupstages, and they won in the upper bracket final of the Monster event 2-0.

it all depends on how much sleep envy gets, i don't think this is another second place. eg still has major trouble winning with anything else than 5 man push jakiro visage core, enigma and the likes. if c9 don't give them their deathball i think they're favorite. assuming they don't clown on us and lose to vp again ofc.

Although I think c9 has a decent shot, I don't think one can put them as the favorite given their history with EG (even not taking the games from today into consideration). c9 has to show that they can win a series like this first before one can consider them favorites.

I don't know how you can see c9 as a favorite against EG.
Anyways all this talk assumes they win their first games which is far from certain considering how bad they looked today.

Well they did their clown9 things against VP, but their games against VP.P were pretty straightforward. And if there is a team that can look like complete ass in one game and really good in the next it's probably c9. I think it's very likely that they beat VP, not that likely they beat EG but unlike VP they have a decent shot to do it imo.

is the ticker on the right true? why is there 2 day gap
|
Sat, 29 Nov 2014 13:30:00 it says, while calendar adds another day. Strange...
Either recently changed or a bug.
edit,
Bug. A mod/admin changed the start day but didn't touch the games. So they still had their old times even though the event itself is today.

Just a little crazy and off balance. Which is what makes them the best team to watch :D

I'm pretty sure everyone knew that c9 was EG's only real competition at this tournament.
And no one ever goes into a tournament thinking c9 is going to win it. Hoping, yes, but never betting.
