I wouldn't say its a flame. It's just iceiceice has so much unfulfilled potential and he somehow "chokes" when he is close to the finals. During the group and early stages, he's a 1man army but as he moves further into the brackets, his plays somehow drops to me.

So much potential and he could have been a mutil TI/Major winner.

China weakness this TI
- dealing with illusion
- High ground siege
- Coming back from disadvantage

every series China lost involves an illusion based heroes or fail high ground siege
and they never come back from behind

one more thing
they rarely draft tower damaging heroes
their draft focused on ganking and pick offs

Universe keeps emphasizing that the team is good at calming down again after getting excited, which is probably even more important than just being able to stay calm in the first place.

All Star match makes the schedule kind of unfair. Winner of EHOME vs. TNC/DC gets a day to rest before LBR5 while winner of MVP vs. Liquid/Fnatic don't.

because he was trying to literally 1v5 lol


thing is on current eg both sumail and fear rotate to help on rotations and kills, they do not afk farm like rtz and ee do, which is why universe looked like shit, because his team was playing like absolute ass because they refused to help him due to playstyle issues

that was not the flame...did it look like one? i think coming top8 in TI with this level of competition is really big thing...i was just tagging along with other people

i don't know how people look at that game and tell themselves "icex3 is choking". he missed some spells but just after the way the lanes played out, what the fuck was he supposed to do? the game was already over but whatever classic ice is the one choking i guess when you see old chicken miss easy arrows and leap into chronos.

honestly g2 was just a massive tilt by ehome, bad draft, bad play


They should have won G1, and if they did they would have taken that momentum into G2 and probably won that based on their form. A couple of big key mistakes lost them G1 and that just tilted them.

I'd say EG are definitely in the finals. Wings don't look to me like a team that can take them out. Then who knows who will come from the lower bracket, but fatigue will do its business for the lower bracket team.


Wings can throw enough curveballs to win a Bo3 series against anyone. But EG also has 2 full days to study Wings. Wings drafts for synergies, but it's not all that insane.

Wings can also tilt really hard, or EG could as well. (Which happened last year.)

I just want EG to finally win the Upper Bracket Finals, haha.

Do you want EG to lose TI? Because that's how EG lose TI.


I just don't want them to face Wings twice, haha.

I mean, the choke part was visible when he was literally walking afk around standing t1 then ate gust and stuns and died.

Yeah, this has felt like the hallmark of their play for a long time now, at least to me. When they're on their game, they they're the best in the world at coming from behind just because they capitalize on little mistakes. And that also means they can get away with a few more of their own mistakes here and there, 'cause they have a better chance of making up for it later.
