I think we're both very biased but yes, there is something about the confidence which they approach crucial fights with; making ballsy plays when everything is on the line. Sure, it backfires from time to time, but you have to be able to go for those plays to beat the best teams. Very hyped to see where this is headed!

Faruko you dont make sense ..... slumping skills ? they are getting better , game is being played more and pushed to the limits , the game is only progressing and changing with the metas and patchs

Yea, man ..such good dota that match had 3 or 4 322 moments. EG will easily eat either of these teams , the way they are playing .

MC seems to have a bad game a bit too often. Wisp did nothing. Game was super sloppy from both teams and EG will win this tournament with no problems now.

I don't know about that, considering the number of whiffed Chronosphers and Blacks Holes and Sufails I've seen earlier.
I think Alliance is more likely to win it tbh.

exactly. they play the exact same game they played at ti3 lol. now it's just viable again. sheever said it perfectly yesterday when she said there's going to be a patch before ti6 which probably nerfs all this stuff again, so alliance has no chance there.

Yeah I agree. I also think s4 is having a momentum based revival with his boys. Sick plays with batrider, puck, and picking signature heroes for his team no matter what's the current meta. They don't care and they realized they just need to do what they're good at, because you know what, it works anyway. Dude I'm loving this!

Yeah it's very very competitve now
some of the games back in 2011 or 2012 are so dumb

In the middle of all this, I can't help to ponder what MyNuts is doing.
In some way it might feel comforting to see how well (A) are doing without him; meaning that bringing EGM back wasn't a useless/spur-of-the-moment move.

EG will rekt any of this 2 teams for sure. I would like to see S4 dancing on Artour's corpse but frankly I dont see it happening.

The level is definitely higher now but dota is more messy so it does not appear as clean as it was before.

It's not 322 if the mistakes are forced by better play from the other team lol. Just because you're ahead, it doesn't mean youre guaranteed to win guys.

Actually Alliance fucked up and almost lost the game but they dominated early and came back ridiculously well.
EG did the same thing agains Fnatic for example, and they did retarded things in game 2 against LGD.
I think both these teams will give EG a run for their money and I'm an EG fan.

If you are talking about quality of gameplay I would rather go to 2013 when you could see smoke with sentries and where good vision was everything.

He lifts them up for qualifiers just so he can see them crush and burn at TI6 when he nerfs all their heroes a month prior to TI.

I seriously doubt it considering how nerfed Alliance's heroes and playstyle was after TI 3
