RTZ Sumail Universe tri core has never ever worked successfully before even under PPD. You need 1 of them to be sacrificial, yet none of them is willing to.

The game has changed enough to the point that they actually can run it hero-wise, but they are lacking a player that can play PPD heroes. Their support picks just don't fit the 3 greedy core gameplay.

They had decent results under ppd unfortunately not good enough that time with Secret(wEEha roster) and OG(miracle) that time. Similar to how TL has been this year (hit and miss)

We have to remember even the ppd rosters have times where they just failed a b03 even got eliminated by some random at one point(that was the TI5 winning roster). They could still make this work , they've won tournament before(placed top 3 at some) this year.

Admittedly though this roster doesn't feel like it's well oiled.

EE coach will destroy this major.

This team's playstyle is made for EE and his past teams. No surprise Misery and co. approach him.

Eg actually has 2 crazy good #4, but neither excel in #5 it seems. Also I think eg should play around rtz middle, with suma1l playing the mason/s4 role of a safe lane playmaker. Then switch if invoker needs to be played. Or just boot rtz because his safelane is mediocre.

Miracle pudge is not Dendi

Also arent we putting a bit much into one loss for EG. They might just be 'not warmed up' or not really trying like you saw in that documentary for one of the first games

This is a really good assessment if you ignore that they throw him under the bus EVERY damn game while giving him heroes that require farm.

That also roster of EG was on the back of winning TI when they clearly didn't practice much until around the 2nd Major point. In which they still got what top 3 at every lan they attended? Lost finals twice in China was it or something and they were looking good. Then Rtc jumped ship and it all went wrong. However they were starting to look useful.

The consistency level of this EG is just so poor, when they are on it and draft well they look so good. Without a good draft and miss plays come in, they look very average. That shouldn't happen

Because he is even more worthless if you give him carries that are supposed to take objectives early and carry the tempo. He rather farm inefficiently with those heroes.
