How? They just changed rosters (2 major changes too), they need to show they can perform. If they maintain this level of performance and still get invited I'll be pretty disgusted with valve. | ||

EE takes up a LOT of farm. ppd finally solved this problem, partially due to the meta, by playing a 1/3/3/3/5 system. Their only major mistake was not banning Nature's Prophet at Shanghai.  Eh, I don't agree at all. I don't see how these games had anything to do with people taking farm, the rotations from Secret achieved very little in both games and after a while their drafts were inferior. In the first game there were a few key fights that just turned the game completely for Empire and in the 2nd game somehow Secret just was not successful at all in finding good fights with their Tide+Chen+OD early power, and after a while it was again too late really to do anything. | ||

Felt to me like Secret was very hesitant to do stuff, and whenever they tried some smokes they were rather difficult to pull off. Wasn't really a particular player problem but an issue with what you do as a team. And both drafts were also such that Secret couldn't afford to have it go even like that. I think they did try to do stuff in the first game, it just didn't work out because Nyx alone wasn't enough control (especially if he's missing spells) so Empire always got their ebola off and wisp+dazzle weren't enough vs both the magical and physical damage from Empire. Probably shook them before the second game | ||

Probably shook them before the second game Yeah, in the first game they did try. That was more in terms of the 2nd game, their movement just was really awkward in that. First game honestly came down to a few badly taken fights (like the baited initiation on Spectre and some fight later mid I believe), and after a while there was very little Secret could do in the game even if they had a Naga. The OD was just completely useless in both games after they didn't manage to utilize his early laning advantage to get a good lead in the game. | ||

Personally I feel like Universe has been slumping lately in general even before leaving EG the last few tourneys he wasn't their best player. That's not to say he's bad at all, just wasn't up to that insanely fucking high bar he set for himself, didn't have that universe sparkle. But it seems natural to have some ebbs and flows, hopefully he hits his stride again I'll always love that handsome Indian fellow. | ||
