Pretty sure he can ball lightning into the charge to stop it.

well, he then has to also ball far enough away that he doesn't get nether striked

he had about 75% mana so he can only get like ~2000? range away, which is gonna be a lot less when he's going back into SB

DC DID IT!

That was perfectly played.

But now they have to play the loser between LGD and VP, which doesn't seem like any fun at all.

He definitely panick zipped the wrong way. Had he gone straight south it's unlikely the entirety of DC could've gotten to him and killed him rapidly. At worst he gets bash lorded to death by a solo SB, but that's pretty unlikely. They might have still killed him had he gone south but it would've put DC out of position, at the very least. Zipping straight into their jungle was probably the worst place he could've gone. Rosh pit at least maybe rosh bashes them as another alternative.

Day9 and PPD work pretty well together. They get Akke in well during drafts but Merlini never really gels.

Yes. She asked for name suggestions in some interviews.


Most surprising for me was Liquid losing today. Lower bracket went as expected and other upper bracket game was expected to be more even. Both Chinese upper bracket teams performed very well today. They likely will tomorrow as well if today was anything to tell by.

Looking forward to TNC game, will see if they figured something about LFY out or if we see yet another stomp from them.

Definitely recommend TL vs IG, games of the day.

Good day overall, lower bracket was kinda meh but it's always a bit lopsided in the first round of losers. Game quality can only go up from here!

I still miss 2GD but overall I thought the panel + segments were solid. Some of the interviews were really funny.

Not really. The last DC vs IG.V game was decent I guess.

The lower bracket games were all of a lower quality compared to the upper bracket ones. The only team that played well was Secret. OG won easily but that was due to Infamous playing below their normal level more than OG playing very well.
