ppd is double the networth of the lowest player on the other team at 15 minutes. Optic had a great early game.

Yeah and if he really wants to go for the split push go for desolator and shadow blade afterwards.

But the biggest problem was that the Storm Spirit had no impact whatsoever.

storm had plenty of impact .. it lead to their massive lead at the start

he just ran out of steam as bkb gets lower and VG having all kinds of mana burn and lots of stuns

you underestimate that VG essentially has 4 disables which doesn't really bode well for storm even in ultralategame scenarios

it's not the usual storm game if there are plenty of disables from the other team especially since they're getting items to stop the storm like bloodthorne and hex

Exactly, because there were so many counters he had no impact, duh. His early game was not that great either, he never had a substantial gold lead over the other cores. Every time he went in he was either killed or had to disengage 3 seconds later. That means he had no impact. You think i want to blame Reso for it and i don't. He should have gone for Shivas earlier but that is really the only thing.

I'd agree no impact later but upto midgame he did his job as storm as much as he could. OG just couldn't close out the game fast enough with their bear timing and VG doing a great job not tilting.

So im guessing Zai still the offlane player but he is the only one who can play Chen who ppd must be valuing very high right now? But PPD can play Chen also he was practicing it alot in his last stint with EG hmm

Oh wait im even more wrong, Zai is on the kotl wtf xD

Crush every qualifiers but can't win chinese team during CNY. EU region has no depth outside of Secret and Liquid lol.

if you talked about depth, only Chinese team have more than 2 relevant team
EU: Secret & Liquid
NA: CoL & EG
CIS: Na'VI & VP
SEA: Mineski
SA: LOLOLOLOLOL why this region exist?!?!
CN: Newbee, LGD, VG, VGJ

this is reflected in the current DPC (LGD unfortunately used sub in Bucharest)
VGJ is arguable, I put it based on the fact they won the unfortunately "irrelevant" Galaxy Battle 2, other than that they're actually sucked.

Zai is on KOTL. He just missed killing Disruptor in that fight at the Dire Ancients. Had he killed Disruptor, Optic locks up a win.

33's positioning has been questionable in these teamfights.

Yeah i mean position as in offlane vs 4. Why is Zai 4 and 33 offlane is it a proper swap or due to heroes playing atm? I know recently 33 has been woeful at 4, the EG series in the qualifiers he was very poor.

ok i like this solar crest pickup by ramzes though

he's most likely unkillable now unless nuked to death .. it has good synergy with radiance

they're gonna have to focus him or he's just gonna run around or if he gets focused he's gonna do his job with qop+ench being free to do whatever they want

Optic can still win with bkbs though. VP lineup has no hard disables at all.
