Newbee is one of my top 3 picks. So, while DC has done better than expected, I was never anticipating them to win this series. Hell, even taking one game deserves some credit.

Was it too much to hope for for an upset in game 3?


No, since Newbee went "bread & butter" in game 3, which DC should have been prepared for. If you avoid the Chuan ganks early, their supports don't scale quickly, you take towers and they can't play defensive behind their towers.

It's generally a product of the rubberband mechanic, it's just safer to drag it out, deny vision and ratting and choking your opponents rather than rushing in with just a slight advantage.

Keep dreaming. Comeback gold isn't getting nerfed anytime soon.

Even if LGD wins, Newbee is just the purely stronger team. Need some xiao8 magic to win that one. If Fnatic wins, there's a chance for their insane peak play to hit, but still... Newbee's just so solid. Some kpii misplays or Hao overaggressiveness can give LGD/Fnatic a chance, but really, Newbee's on point. Even in their losses.

There's a large group of Australians next to me producing the biggest cringe fest ever for the Manila Major press/camera crew. Really hope it's not shown because the level of cringe is off the charts.

It's tough to say. My Top 4 coming into the tournament was Newbee, Liquid, MVP, OG.

However, I think Liquid match up well against OG and OG match up well against Newbee/MVP.

Wouldn't be surprised if it's OG vs Newbee in the Winner's Finals just because of the matchup.

I feel like everyone is too generous. One day I'll be on a panel like this and everyone will be shocked at the multitude of analogies and allegories I will make to trash.

You know what would've been amazing. If during the EG team introduction when they mentioned that they won TI5.. It switched to the EG team making it rain with bills...

Still wish there was more attitude and fun in the introductions. Kinda like Sizzle and Ball So Hard University.
