Now this is some top notch Dota, I love how both teams are making the right moves as soon as they use crucial spells on the map, like Metamorphosis,Mass Wards etc. Beautiful.

More interesting meta trend is that Gyro is no where anymore. That's how quickly the meta shifts at TI.

He is in first phase bans.


What I get for commenting with TrackDota having issues. Hadn't been touched in the last 4 matches today.

It is definitely very good dota, but it kind of makes VG's draft worse, because WK is a greedy hero and yet Papa is playing it very safe.

Its better to save the rock for a teamfight, LGD can run over them if they have no wards and no rock. With Lesh and Rhasta its more than enough to take towers. VG is playing around Metamorphosis, when that's down they go for towers, and thats the correct way to play this game.

Yeah, but VG are not forcing any teamfights either, that's the issue.

LGD's draft I think is better lategame but I never feel LGD when they have to go for these 'don't fight, play the map' type games.

yeah they can 4 or 5 man down every tier 2 easily with rock and wards up. LGD have to split and can't directly engage until bkbs. 20 minutes in and LGD still having tier 2s is a travesty.
