i don't know why anyone thought that NB could take a 5v5 at this point. that fight was over when axe missed the blink call on weaver.

They kind of won that fight, you know.


no that's a won fight

Previous one was won too because buybacks and BS snowball.

Now that one was simply One Punch Man of a fight.

Of course as I type this up, Newbee outfight LFY after stalemating them in the last fight...

LFY was the favourite before this tho, not even remotely close to Wings or DC story

Earth shaker can't just jump in blind like that. Let the NS and Medusa walk in after the fissure conencts.

The teams that have an advantage of being kind of unknown quantity in the West were making deep TI runs since god knows when.

LFY's captain has also been around for a long time (ddc), as has Super. Inflame's also been bouncing around in tier 2-3 teams for years

Ok ahfu is the key here, if he gets found is over, Newbee can kite Medusa to the ends of the earth.
And Weaver has no damage to solo the Blood.

This might actually be an Aghs Medusa game. They really need another form of control in the fights.

Inflame has no items to work with. They need to sit behind Super until Newbee has committed 2 heroes before they can show up.

They were expected to be good based on their MDL performance, which to me is very similar to Wings at Manila, but I wouldn't have called LFY a "favorite" before the group stage.
