Ceb is saying on gorgc stream that EG shouldve played according to the strength of their heroes (chen, beastmaster, invoker wex) and kept pushing and skirmishes instead of trading farm(which i assume what VG wanted like hit timings and fight as 5).

He doesnt even think that BM is a bad pick against Omni/OD saves so long as he played the eating the map thing

Interesting

edit: Khezzu thinks the same on the mainstream well the 5-manning thing and pushing advantage only

I mean you probably need to give him more time but as somewhat of a fan of his carry plays he looks wasted and/or not up to par on offlane :/

The draft/strategy felt abit weird from Eg. Like if their 1-2 heroes are gonna be as passive as Slark/AW, it feels like they need to prioritize Ramzes/Cr1t's farm in the early game so they can actually do something on the map and not just slowly lose the game. I mean, they had decent networth on RTZ/Abed from the lanes, but that doesn't do much if they got nothing of value on their playmakers.

But it's also hard to know how they intended their strategy to play out, so who really knows but them tbh.

Yeah, he looks pretty lost (i mean, barely any bad, but not top top tier material) in the offlane position.

His carry skills are much higher than his offlane.

But tbh, i'm also not sure about rtz lately, again this is top top level talking here.

Yeah he thinks VG and Alliance are the strongest teams atm like Secret wasnt as solid from seeing the Fnatic series

And tbh he hasnt been wrong at all while casting Eg-VG he pretty much called the entire series on how it would play out and who would win

I still think Secret is gonna win tho
