Feels like a week ago she was the tier 1 support with a good stun, armor reduction for rosh, swap and that dont you dare kill me aura.

In an ironic twist of fate, all the lag issues will resolve just in time for Na'Vi to play.

eg looking good but vg looked really really shaky. non of them played decent this game.
ehome a bit disappointing as well, but cdec played pretty good after the earlygame was over.

oh well gg EG. I wouldn't make such a big deal of losing one game but VG clearly needs to step up their drafting as that was never going to work.

C9 looking really good, against one of the weaker teams in the tournament but given C9's tendency to beat good teams and lose to bad teams, it's a win.
|
I was not expecting that.

dude did perfectworld / China as a whole shit in your bed or something? reading through your comments its either perfect world are shitty, or apparently the "chinese way" is not wanting a fun tournament. im not calling you racist, but i am calling you out. if you don't enjoy it, don't watch it. if you enjoy it, well stop acting like perfectworld shot your dog. and apparently no chinese people like fun :/

Hmm, well only 2 games right?
If this continues for the Chinese it might be Uh Oh time.

Seems like this is one of those tournaments where no one can be called "weaker" until group stages are actually finished.

Not at all the case for VG. According to interviews, they have been training, preparing, and trying new heroes. The result doesn't look all that great but it's easy to see how thinking too hard about a topic is capable of making you go down the wrong path. Dazzle mid was obviously the wrong path.

totally unsure about LC these days, too dependent on getting duel wins to make any impact in the game and the nerf to duel not disabling passives is a really big deal. Troll is definitely 1st pick / ban material with this meta.

Manta on dusa is so shit, the best thing it does is make you move a bit faster to get to your precious creeps. Don't ever get it if there's not a silencer on the other team.

Lothars sniper in pro games.
Venge swapping with tidehunter to save her life only to get both her and tidehunter killed.
Misery in the trees.
Medusa buying manta and a rapier against troll-slark.
Mid dazzle i heard, but did not watch that one.

I think HGT can pretty safely be called weaker. Their drafting is super one-dimensional and they were super lucky to make it out of the qualifiers in the first place.
