honestly though, since TI3, only Alliance lived up to the major hype that they got prior to the tournament.

last year same thing as this year.

Amazing how slowly this thread is going now that Team Secret lost.

Damn Bandwagoners and their traffic.


for sure. guaranteed that viewership overall dropped by about 25% or more.

also it's 3am in europe

the last few series always have less traffic

The EG game last night was slow too, because it was late even in the East US.

Game 2 and 3 themselves are slow, you're right.

I think it's easier to just blame Secret's downfall to S4. Too many games where he didn't perform well at all. Bad item choices, getting caught out, no farm, etc.

Sure, but the idea that Arteezy was "too good" for Secret *as a whole* is ludicrous.

Yeah he played better than s4, but so did the other 3 players on Secret.


yeah agreed. Arteezy was their best player this tournament, but no way was he next level above the rest... If ever, it's S4 below a level than the other 4 players.

I'm not hating on him, but it's clearly obvious that he didn't give out the performance that was expected of him. Maybe you can blame the drafts, but that's mainly him too no?

How well did Zai/Puppey and Kuro play?

Was it all of Secret tanking, or did Arteezy just play out of his mind?

TBH I don't even think it'd be outrageous to say Zai was their best player this tournament.

Zai played absolutely insane in some critical games, and was more impactful in making the plays to give Secret a chance in the last set against VP even though Arteezy had the farm.

All 4 players played like what was expected of them... Only S4 was the odd one out I feel.

rtz was really the only guy the other team focused on so it was a pretty tall order for him to carry without another core sharing the load half the time
