Seemslegit that casual SD illus killing a 6slotted sniper in lategame. Should vp itemize more with damage instead of stats considering the sd or was the eye/bfly needed.

This is why you need double elimination. Teams that get easier matchups can save strats or don't reveal the limits of their strats. Well at least EG got a hard road this tourny.

Hihi OG though.

yes . thats what i thought too. and alchemist was also a main part of their game 2 draft as it was for IG.v in game 2. just that EG executed the game 1 draft cleanly

They need to not pick Ogre and have different strategies.

Yeah, blademail change single handedly ruined Noone there. With old blademail sniper would probably last longer.

It took two shots and Sniper was done. I don't know how much of a difference it would've made if we still had the old blademail to be honest.

Simply a great item pick up by Sumail.

Blademail killed 6slotted sniper, not SD. SD illusions were doing damage, but not that much.

Thanks.

I count two shots on the Alchemist, each of which lowered his health by roughly 1/3rd of his max health, damn.

Strategic games like starcraft and dota has that bit of poker element to it though. You win some, you lose some. Being the best only increases probability of winning in the long run, but you can't win it all.

on the old blademail sniper would have taken 0 damage since he popped his bkb while shooting. So quite the gamechanger there

Thanks for the correction, didn't know that. Some of the changes and new items are completely new to me.

If there's too much randomness, you could make the series longer though. But yeah, I can take that argument, because mind-games decide Dota 2 games a lot, while most sports are won in mechanics, which are a lot more consistent.

I'm just not happy with there being no ranking for 9-16th place.
