spectre lost the game at 35 minutes, fnatic just decided to sit in the enemy jungle and realized their mistake 20 minutes later

Literally no other team ever would have made that call. Alliance just plays this game on a different level. Idk, it was close to be the game losing call. It wasn't a fight with Fnatic pushing, it wasn't a rosh fight. But now as I say this Alliance wins the rosh fight anyway. It could have gone wrong, sure, but it's still the case that no other team would have made that call. And this isn't just random CIS aggression or anything like that - you can watch another couple dozen Alliance games and you will never see them make a choice like that again. It was calculated insanity, and they added it up right. That's why they're on another level. Point being I don't think they calculated it up right. They ended up using their Spec bb just before the rosh was up and didn't even wipe Fnatic to be able to accomplish something. But it all turned out well in the fight afterwards. In the current patch, it's worth winning fights just to win fights, not to mention the incredible psychological value of being able to win that fight.
I don't see what it has to do with the patch. Had Fnatic been able to win the rosh fight (potentially with bbs of their own) / gotten the rosh for free, it would have probably been end of the game with the Spec bb on cd. But Alliance got the better of the next fight and it wasn't even a real contest so it didn't come into play.
Certainly it was calculated and ballsy and not some panic move but I don't think Alliance got what they wanted from that fight.

I miss the times Burning Ice3 Fy Fenrir Super were a force to be reckoned with..
It's not very PC I guess but I don't like Burning's attitude since after DK. Basically he hoped from team to team, always toward the current best china team, and he found success in none of them. I'm not saying he dragged those teams down, but for sure he didn't help them much.

Yea fnatic should have finished the game at 30 mins according to their draft..nonetheless,they played pretty good.

Holy despite all the issues, that was the sickest game i've watched in a long time

What is the point of the MVP vote when all the cluesless people watching just votes for the carry every game anyway. The MVP thing is a competition between the 3 cores to see who can "carry" the most.

I really really enjoy [A]'s drafts so far.

just a tip to people suffering against spectre: when youre ahead because the enemy has a spectre, and you kill the enemy team, then they all buyback and kill you, go do it again. You're still ahead and they can't do that a 2nd time.
she wins in pubs because convincing your team to go fight just after you get wiped is almost impossible, but in pros this was fucking terrible decision making.

Alliance won on sheer lategame decision making but the blunders here and there could prove to be way more costly against the likes of EG and OG.

It's a popularity contest, nothing more.
