First place got $53,907, second got $30,804, so both had plenty of incentives.
Artanis solo tank was a really poor choice for last game.
Feels like that is a bit typical mvp. When not plenty is on the line they dont try 100%. I doubt they would play that comp in the semi-final for example when they fight for the blizzcon spot.
So Dignitas players started Korean HL today (since they are waiting for Snitch who has Visa issues to start scrims) and the duo Bakery - Athero faced Rich and Sign twice. Both times they didn't respect the #1 drafting rule of Korean meta : always first ban Illidan.
Edit : and also, at the very end of the first clip you can see Mene telling Rich "we will do it too then ". It's because just before he asked Rich "So do we need to ban Illidan against you ?" and Rich said : "we always ban Illidan in Korea".
First clip, okay, he's up 3 levels... second clip I have no idea how tf he did that but it makes me wish that I was that good with Illidan (and lowkey that Alex never left Dig)
If you watch the full VOD for the match, even the first clip, the reason they have a three level lead is Rich dominating on Illidan and Sign being just as impactful on Muradin. There might be 2 or 3 other players in the world who don't have to wish they were that good with Illidan, including most of the pros who play him for their respective teams. Rich consistently shows that most pros are not at the skill cap of what is possible in the game.
