OK TL vs OG interesting series. Time to see how good either team really are. I expect a close series.

I missed the OG matches but heard that they looked really, really good in their games.
Liquid on the other hand looked a bit clowny vs col. No idea if they didn't take the games seriously, if they were just having some fun or if they tried their best and just didn't look good but it certainly wasn't a domination and col could have taken the series.

The word "cool" only hit the public consciousness somewhere in the early to mid 1900s or something. Just like that, the words "rofl" and "lmao" will be the "cool" for the Internet generation. So get used to hearing people in their 50s start dropping "lol" in their casual talk soon.

Thank you!


you're very welcome
who are your favourites this tournament?


Personally, I believe that NB will take it all but I think top three will be 3.EG, 2.OG, and 1.NB. EG played well earlier but they played a weak VP team, but I believe they are going to perform well compared to Secret or Liquid. I feel as if this patch fits perfectly with what OG want to do, and will land them a spot in the finals. Ultimately, NB has momentum and an understanding of the patch so I believe they will come out on top



i also think something clicks about the current patch with OG's playstyle. they can play and draft many variations of the same styles that work.

i'm unsure about EG, but they're always a strong force, even more than alliance for me.

so overall i'd put 4/3/2/1 as secret/eg/og/newbee.

thanks for phrasing everything so nicely!

OG has all of their 6.85 strategies as being viable again, so I get the feeling OG gets the series.

I think EG vs Newbee is going to be 2-1, but I'm really not sure who's going to win. Obviously, Newbee should be favored, but ppd should have planning. We'll see what he pulls out. (My guess is we'll see Wisp as a first-ban.)

ESpirit is now much more manageable. i think it has to do with his projectile speed being much slower and initial HP pool playing a small part (as well as early tears).

Because you can't assume everyone else will play well. (I'm recalling Starladder 13.)

TL looked pretty good but not amazing. Day 1 jitters I suppose. OG looked solid against Alliance


Thanks. So OG is also solid this tournament .. Also was alliance any strong or just gave OG what they want and underperformed?

well azarkon u have no excuse now the tean you called "top western team" lost to newbee xD (no backing out of your word now)

did he actually say Secret was a top western team? that could be his escape route.


Why wouldn't they be. You think Kuroky's team is actually above them? Lelz.

I say there are no dominant teams anymore.


Lol.

This kind of post are enlightening. Keep up the good work pal.

If you really need me to spell it out - NB are on an unprecendented streak, ripping up the competition left right and centre. And just after they rape one of the the top western teams to continue their streak this comment comes up.
What else wud you have me do rather than LOL?
:D

So, you say that dominant means winning twenty something games in a row in a time span of five weeks. That is as dominant as OG was when they won the Major and the last two months you saw them struggle against almost everyone.
That is in my opinion a quite short dominance, if they were to lose in this tournament their dominance would be insignificant in comparison to my concept of dominance (EG placing always 1st/2nd/3rd for at least a year).
After losing to Fnatic in the Major they won two weekly tournaments, two qualifiers and one wildcard. What are we talking about again?

Let them win something and then we can clearly say they are dominant both in china and outside of it.

Or maybe you are one of those who chant the name of the best player of the world of the week, and with that you let everyone know how deep you are.

you'd better watch the games. they're quite short.
alliance lost to pushes and played generally disarranged as they somewhat always do as of late.
OG plays unique stuff, even drafting the first dazzle huskar in quite a while.

they also played dragon knight + drow, which is a combo that has been used in various games lately.

The first game Alliance went up 0-9, then OG brought it to 10-11

Alliance had many of their fav heros "buffed" in this patch (puck,LS,BM,etc) and I thought they would perform well. I think that OG just was the better team. Miracle and the crew outplayed them with armlet shenanigans and a style that focuses on tanky-ness and supports with heals

Helps that OG has the best player in the world

i notice that as teams fight and contend for towers a lot, farm drops below 500gold a minute across all heroes in the game.
dps in that case, is hard to come by in general until much later into the game when money is injected through teamfighting.
