How does that last game show that? C9 appeared to be in control the entire game, never in danger of losing at all.

I don't think it's an outdraft.

EG were out of position so much of the time. The biggest example being the time when Stitches was at the south shire, sticking around for no reason while his team was retreating. All of C9 stormed down on him and they decided to fight, which was a horrible move.

To me, it just looks like C9 practiced as a team a lot more, and they actually play together. EG isn't quite there yet.


I thought EG was like, a top tier team though? That's what we were told in the articles forcing this down our throats.

Well top tier in a game with an almost non-existing competetive history so far. if this game reall developes a healthy competetive scene these frst teams will mean nothing later on. Also experienced LoL or Dota players should have the edge over RTS players once they played Hots as much..


Yes I know, I'm kind of mocking the idea, I expected C9s 'moba' experience to mean a lot once they practiced a bit for Blizzcon.
afaik jintae played lol almost entire time and didnt practice hots that much none of them treat that showmatch serious

It is kinda funny when you're losing fights while landing 3 and 4 man shock and awe plus orbital strikes.

Giving up Tychus/Abathur/Uther every single game isn't an outdraft to you?

On top of that picking Falstad/Tass into double tanks every time.

It's horrendous drafting, but just found out the drafts were done in advance, so lol results pointless now ;(

Drafting all games beforehand, not adjusting mid-series is a bit of a joke =/

Ehhh.. Out of those three, I think Uther is the bigger deal. EG has the damage to clean them up, but Tassadar isn't optimal, I agree on that much.

What do you mean, the drafts were done in advance?

Abathur has an aoe burst skill that has a fairly short range. If you want to push the lane, you need to land that skill on a lot of creeps, so it makes sense to symbiote the melee.
