That sounds like an anime, you have to overcome your self to evolve. Seen it a couple of times, lol. Funny with NA caster that talk shit about European teams and players (Ace) and then have to eat there words. Really find it strange that they say Reso is a better one against one player than Ace. If you look at how good Ace has been this year and see Reso at OG and other teams. | ||

I also thought that VGJs were getting the short end when they replaced Timado with Reso because Reso is the greedy core who plays specific hard carry cores and needs alot of farm to be able to play, then even with said farm he still makes mistakes. With Yawar on VGJs they don't need that kind of player because Yawar is a great 1 anyway, but i guess they told him that if he joins he has to play what SVGesus gives him as Yawar always gets prio farm/hero which is good. Reso, at this point in his career, is a solid, greedy pos 1 player, while everyone else on VGJ.Storm is technically still unproven. They're going to end up playing around him whether they wanted to or not, as he simply has the experience to dictate how you win things. The issue for VGJ.Storm is going to be that the scene, at the high level, does know how to deal with Reso-based squads, so there is now a lot of games to see how they operate.They have to keep the momentum up to get through TI qualifiers, as they're going to need it. | ||

Those 2 support heroes will synergise well with DP mid game too. Pretty solid draft | ||

And Yawar struggling on DP and Reso is miles away from doing anything with this slark. Wait why is puppey level 5 at minute 17 xD | ||

Pretty solid draft The Doom + WW is really what makes the draft. You just can't fight into the ability to remove 2 cores from a fight for 4+ seconds. The carry doesn't matter much in this situation. | ||

I'd normally call this a "ppd special", but ppd isn't in this tournament. It doesn't really matter what cores Storm is running, the wisp + doom + WW combo is going to be almost unbreakable, unless Secret is ahead by 20k+. | ||

Resolution remains a fucking sick player Also that Doom in reminds me exactly of the Doom in Keen vs EG (?). 2.6k HP Pipe Crimson can't fucking die ever ever ever. | ||

It's the same approach. The WW is also borrowing something Keen did. The strategy was built around Doom, which Wisp + WW make nearly impossible to break. Puppey got outdrafted in the first phase, all Storm needed was a carry and some tower push to win. Now we'll see if Puppey either takes or bans the doom, or he makes the exact same error as he did in Thailand. | ||
