For those wondering how they beat Leshrac, from what I could tell, the idea was basically to spread the fight out as much as possible and use track speed to kite Leshrac, while also trading kills with Leshrac (because Leshrac excels in teamfighting early to mid with lots of trading). The idea is essentially you will out gold the other team even if you lose your supports in every fight. Just look at how LGD played, they totally ignored VP's cores until way late, and targeted CM/Bane/ES exclusively until like the 40 minute mark.

Can someone explain to an outsider what makes less so powerful this patch? I haven't watched much since the last ti, so I'm not very aware of the current meta and the strongest heros

Most recent patch introduced an item called Octarine Core that allows casters like Leshrac to scale better lategame.
Leshrac in particular can become nigh-immortal with Octarine thanks to his mass AoE damage.
On top of that, all the buffs to Lightning Storm over the past several patches have made Leshrac's laning phase and farming ability extremely strong.


octarine is nice but in no way responsible for lesh being lesh

I cant understand how LGD won from the first. They didn't have a strong counter to lesh, also es and lesh were good heroes against pl. Yet in early game, even Vp took rax and rosh LGD never gave an opening in networth and when their carries got fat finished their game. Very impressive. %0 Leshrac win rate in main event now what?


They built BKBs. Once they had BKBs the game was over really, nothing on VP could deal with them (even if there was a miracle grip there was almost 0 damage) and rax were easy enough.

Bounty helped a lot too.

Lesh takes a long time to kill tanky heroes and the rest of VPs line up was made of glass. CM is really hard to play against bounty and PL too.

honestly don't know who will win CDEC vs EG. It could be 2-0 or 0-2 and neither would really be a surprise

The two teams who've already won? Surely you know why they lost.

Well if EG wins first, the west can still take home more than 50% of the prize pool with 50.9%. Otherwise, we better hope all of the money makes China complacent so the west can catch up in future years.


Except the players don't care about the money. They care about winning TI. The only players that became complacent even temporary were the champions.

I do not think this is exactly true. The players care about winning and the money.
