I'd favor LGD over TNC, but VG over LGD.

I always respect fy but I don't think we can make an evaluation on LGD's chances based on that series. VP is clearly tier 2 here.

Less presumably: because it is an awesome item.

VG vs. LGD is a regional matchup and VG hasn't been super great within region this year (see: having to go through minor for the first major they won)

You have triple daggers that resets on kills, which you're almost certainly going to get because you're six-slotted, so in a teamfight, you can easily get 2-3 sets of refreshed triple daggers off, not including those off its normal cd. Blink may only be a five-second cooldown, but when you blink onto a Lion and one-shot him, you need to catch the other enemy heroes and may have ~4 seconds of just trying to run at them, which may be enough time for them to escape as in the case of Pango rolling away. Also, the reset on Blur which gives you a brief moment of invisibility can definitely be key to avoid, in this case, Gyro and TB hits

Aren't they doing any team profile things between games this year?

While I do agree, VG has looked cleaner during the group stage, even if LGD topped their group.

Blur having no castpoint and dispelling is a nice bonus

Probably before elimination matches?

Adds a lot of value to BKB since you get to use the duration.

Someone please get Dendi a jacket that fits.

I'm also surprised that TNC has nearly even odds on winning this series. VG won two majors this DPC cycle, right?

Yep, according to EGB, VG is ~64% favored to win
