Sneyking was Beastmaster last game, was 1-7 and pretty much irrelevant compared to everyone else on VGJ's team. KOTL had more farm than him, and with how badly Fnatic got outdrafted, VGJ could've won 4v5 at that point. | ||

KOTL was simply given farm priority. | ||

But there was no initiation, Beastmaster was farming Necronomicon level 2 and split pushing, hence the reason he had 1-7, and they won the game in other lanes, they completely destroyed Fnatic without Sneyking, and Fnatic's lineup only stood a chance in the early-mid game. | ||

I hope they'll calm down with the patches before TI, give the pros at least one and a half month without a patch before TI. | ||

im gonna bet this is about Meta tho keen just didnt face Wisp/KotL/Furion/Veno yet its a deathball-ish patch where first few engagements can decide very skewed results, with very difficult comebacks i liked back and forth dota the most, and... i think tihs is the most Deathballish patch without too much of 322 chance.. not saying VGJS will win over Keen, but what i think will happen is the first 15 mins will define the whole game very much... still standing by my opinion that MORPH is ridiculous, WISP also extremely OP to teams that know how to play them, i think that IO has the best winrate for teams that knows how to play it like the very best winrate | ||

I would honestly love to blame this on the patch release, but after watching the teams play, the losses just came coz the favorites got outplayed in areas that hardly involved any new mechanics (atleast EG & Fnatic, didn't watch Secret series). Overconfidence may be. | ||

Overconfidence may be. Indeed. People can say whatever they want, but all the teams that have lost just played worse than the team they were facing. | ||

I mean Virtus.Pro lost to FlyToMoon just a week ago, not to take anything away from FTM they actually play amazing dota when in their comfort zone, but if people told me that FTM is going to beat VP with 2-0 score I would say that chances of that happening are quite low. FTM tossed out their best Dota against VP while also setting the meta. Those types of tournaments happen. Here, we have 3 DPC teams with several players not quite on point and wonky drafts over multiple teams. Either the Meta shifted massively or everyone was partying too hard. I favor the partying angle, though it's not impossible it's just a meta shift weekend. | ||
