LGD played that so determined and patient. I thought they were too slow but they knew what they were doing

It was mostly the xiao8 ES winning 2 lanes by himself and forcing VG into an overly defensive position. They were playing perfect turtle after that but circunstantial mistakes like using spell steal 1 second late or walking a wrong path made it impossible for LGD to lose.

VG's loss pretty much comes down to going for aggressive teams fights when there was every strategic reason not to.

getting antsy was definitely a mistake, but i didn't see any point in the game where it looked like they were in a winning position... fights were going to be difficult no matter which point in the game they came; sf + gyro onpar with a pl and ahead of a lina are going to be favored

I feel like lgd didnt do much to take the win this game, its just much easier to play the aggressor vs these PL lineups, vg just slowly died while lgd tried some very basic moves and failed time and again until they worked because there's no rebutal for failure. Shitty lineup from VG and the worse team goes through.
So... what that make you? Good? You're not good. You just know how to hide, how to lie

this is the performance of the tournament so far. deserved victory!

you must've missed all the cdec games


Of course CDEC had more dominant games, from draft to win, much stronger showings.

But I honestly think, if you insert any other team in this game in the place of LGD at the 28 minute mark of this game, none win. The difficulty of execution for LGD was ridiculously high, any slip up, even a minor one would have resulted in a certain loss.

edit: sry I meant minute 27, before the movement that led to Hao gank.

I was legitimately shocked when that translator started talking, was sure he was female from a quick glance lmao. Time for bed i think, watching random games of dota at 2am is making me crazy.

VG T_T. Ah well, in the end they ended winning more money placing 4th this year than they did finishing 2nd last year so all in all not a bad week.

Doesn't look likely. But if ppd pulls of genius drafts over Xiao8 (again unlikely), it would be a treat to watch.

But if EG wins TI5 over the back of techies, fuck that.
