I don't think EGs ran anything like disruptor sk support duo recently, at least this is surprising to me.

18-1-6 invoker. Exactly why MVP loss.

Maybe was really unstoppable this game. But LGD as a whole really showed up and MVP seemed overconfident in a lot of fights and when they slowed it down a bit LGD was already way ahead.


I would say mvp was confident in fights but then they were facing invoker.

I feel a lot of the loss was on the draft. I'd even say MVP was doing fine in terms of sheer teamplay versus LGD, but fighting against a Gyro, Invoker and Tide with melee cores is never a fun situation. That and DuBu not being very confident on a Doom 4 when he's typically the aggressive 5.


Yep. Need to doom both tide and invoker to win any fights cleanly. Or if naix is fat enough, rage OW kill tide and doom invoker. But smart force staff by xiao8 though.

VGR loses, while Xiao8's team wins. Similar to the first day, the new Chinese teams have become shit.

What does this say?
That things you said earlier that the new blood was the good thing, and the old blood were bad is reversed currently?


Yes, and that is BAD for China. You can't hold on the old.
Like Fear, he can pass on the legacy.


It actually shows the old players, in terms of experience, aren't doing that.
September and Aggressif are fairly new players. The fact that many of the big organisations has several poaching grounds, does seem like they interact internally.

They haven't used Sand King since I think Starladder 13.

But ppd plays Disruptor a bit.

Still, EG is feeling comfortable.

I think a mix of old and new is the best. Classic EG/sadboys was a mix of old veterans and new talent.

The new Navi has a mix of newer talents, and old school Veterans. Same with Liquid.

Just have to find the right mix of players.

MVP as a team live and die by their execution.

I personally don't think they can do it... now that China started practicing. The peak and caliber of players on LGD are so much higher and xiao8 is not going to let MVP script.

oh, I think Loda dodged the stun by using BKB or with his sidestep oO

He could have picked up the Aegis I think?

That has always been the winning formula in any sport.

Some quick predictions and thoughts.

I don't know if anyone else agrees but I am very interested in Fnatic more so than Liquid in Group C, I think this should be their major to shine because they've been looking really solid coming up to the major and I think they'll overcome their LAN jitters. I think Fnatic might upset Liquid in the group.

MVP Phoenix has been on a terrible slump. Online obviously means less to them playing on high ping and I hope i'm wrong but they look like a team that's on the very edge of running out of steam in general. EG should have a relatively easy time in D.
