It's almost sunrise here. I think I'll only last till the fnatic series

tbh the first two BO1s are the two worth watching.

Idk the last two could be crazy and the first two could be really one-sided. The sea-teams can certainly pull off an ownage or a throw

Mirana is a good ban for VP after the venge + drow opening. Undying/veno/dk are good front liners to ban as well. Don't know if they have a strong WR.

Lgd has little stuns and this undying pick is weird

Ok anti-dagger and heal for anybody who gets jumped by enigma/tiny later might be good

Undying + Drow is a strong and iconic Combo. Undying front lines and drops tomb stone so enemy can't close in. Later on you have double tomb stones which allows for insane kiting.

Also a strong laner that tanks for the ranged DPS even in lane stage.

Huh, this is a fairly nontraditional lineup from VP.

Wow, this is first Enigma and first Visage that I've seen from VP EVER. Noone plays Visage in pubs though, this has to be something that they have been practicing and saving, otherwise they will get stomped.

That it switches over to green screen and then to panel means I didn't get to see the last pick.

Not sure what to think about the drafts of both teams but I feel like VP has a chance to run lgd over

The plus 1 panel prematch is interesting

i thought they were gonna do the entire even with just the 3 caster pairs, but they bring these lower-level casters... might as well have used bsj

Yeah not just the heroes(don't think I've seen VP pick enigma/visage/tiny before) but the general lineup

I think they just focus on the arena sound for the first minute or so
