EG needs to shift Sumail back into mid. EG at its peak was doing well with their tricore greedy because Sumail was dumpstering teams left and right to buy time for their greed to kick in.

It is the perfect meta now to play mid now that it is more 1v1 orientated. Maybe has a similar playstyle to mid Sumail, so you can see how well that playstyle is doing for itself right now.

LGD has 4 other very talented players, but they wouldn't dominate as hard if they had another mid other than Maybe. Yea I rate Maybe as the current best dota player even with his throwing tendencies.

Sumail moved to offlane just as the patch system was shifting the meta back to 1v1 mid, it was the worst timing for them to do that decision it felt like lol. Now in the meta we are evolved into, mid gets a 1v1 lane for free and its 2-1-2 stuff. But still EG could have laned better that time giving Rtc the mid Medusa and Fear the Gyro safelane. Or even just not pick the Medusa and pick a better laner and could have Sumail mid Ember. Oh well, Day 1 EG smh
