Really tho it came down to few mechanical errors, some clutch hooks and sentry wards. Mostly sentry wards.

EG picked Nyx before Clockwork came out.

The drafts were actually pretty close. Jerax really recovered the very bad early game for Ana.

You mean that hill recovered the bad early game^^. That must so tilting for a mid to get killed after such a lucky double miss.

OG played amazing tho, the warding and their movements were spot on.


Yeah everyone played well, but it was OG supports that prevented EG's strong early game from advancing. It was almost like they were playing with map hacks of how good they were placing sentry wards in the right time.

Sumail died twice and was almost 2k clear of Ana around ~12 minutes. The warding, mostly from Jerax, completely changed the game. I talk a lot about the Vision Game: that was the difference in the game.

It's often better to listen to 1 clear voice because it takes a miracle for 5 players to be in sync and have complete trust in each other.

Like pros always said, it is always fine when they are winning but things start falling apart when they start losing.

This reminded me of a game EG played during TI6 where everyone was buying sentry wards to fight off that pesky bounty hunter on the enemy team.

We can only blame EG for not mixing their wards spots more or maybe OG just got lucky. The dewarding mechanic is a bit weird nowadays, all teams study each other and it's a big mindgame/lottery to get good wards last.

Of course, It's a tong in cheek comment, Jerax played amazingly. But Ana not dying and getting a kill on Sumail kept him in the game, without it who knows how much worse his farm deficit would have been.

I think it was in the Winner's semi-finals @ TI6, but there was a game where EG had laid a line of sentry wards from their own bottom T1 (they were Radiant) to the Dire T3 to counter Mirana + another invis hero. And they rolled in the game. Mirana's strength @ TI6 was about 60% about Moonlight Shadow. Almost no one could play against it.

So, EG pick probably the actual worst hero of this tournament. And Ursa.

Ogre better win rate than Ursa. Both way below 50% though.

Hope they don't do the shit bloodlust into stun on ogre at least. That makes the hero totally useless early on.
