Jerax not on playmaking hero means they have lost, tbh. Though SD is actually a playmaker.

that game was pleasure to watch. Liquid fucked up, but NB does deserve credit for pulling that off. The Naga/SD and LS/Nyx special tactics were fantastic.

Fantastic from a tactical sense, but I feel like it's not fun to watch.


They were down by like 15k gold, definitely made it a lot more entertaining, normally i hate naga games.. I was thinking about going to the store for a brief moment there, but decided Newbee still had a decent chance. I'm glad that I stuck around.

it wasnt great before tho, team in the lead had rosh on lockdown, the new timer allows to ninja rosh and stuff

The midgame was tilt-causing, actually.

Newbee looks amazing tbh, this gives more value to EG's victory

I think Ehome and EG are the strongest teams right now, i feel pretty sure the winner of that series will just win ti.

You forget Wings.

These are the sort of guys who may just wreck EG in the final with first pick bloodseeker sending PPD into BSOD.

i don't believe in wings after their groups and EG has improved to the point where they're just beyond what they showed in starladder with picking stupid shit and drafts.

i mean personally, i'd like it if eg didn't win but this isn't the same eg that crumbled against FRIENDS.


honestly the EG sandbagging or creating a narrative "chip on their shoulders" theory is really making a lot of sense now.

This is basically the same team as last year with an upgrade at the 4

To be honest, none of same EG players have shown same level of play they had at TI5 until match with Newbee.

Zai is a fucking god, though.

It doesn't matter, this TI is just so sloppy in general. The games look wild and some are even exciting but these teams are fucking up a lot, and every team made some baffling errors. I feel ALMOST sure that EHome is stronger than Wings and I'm still not sure if MVP is coin flipping their way to victory.


the meta is such a way now that perfect TI3 style Alliance play is not possible

Here's a secret for people with the rose-tinted glasses.

The larger the skill gap between teams, the better the winning team looks.

Alliance around TI3 looked "perfect" because they had a clean, methodical, efficient style that 14/15 other teams had no idea how to deal with, which let them do everything they wanted to do.

These days the skill level of the previous "dumpster" teams has risen immensely, and there is so competitive exposure to each team, that teams have to be far more adaptable and versatile than Alliance was.

SD setups stuff, he initiates the play but does not really make it the way of ES, rubick, lion etc
