I think it was smart to try and core by VP there. Roccat was really close to storm talents. It was really their only chance of winning. Nah, they could have easily sniped the keep, defended their own, and still had time to get back to the immortal and secure a lead. Going for an all-in there against Leoric getting up in ~20 seconds is just a mistake. If there's anything we've learned from the Americas Championship, it's that Leoric alone can threaten 5 people trying to rush down an objective. I disagree. They already had cats top lane and their second keep was at like 20%. Roccat was going to get 20 before the next team fight (VP would not be 20) and that makes it almost impossible to win. The only critique versus VP would be should they have just gone in through the middle straight to core instead of taking the keep. You can do that on BoE, right? The only way they could have won is if they somehow wiped Roccat AGAIN despite Roccat having storm talents. It isn't going to happen. VP had a chance to win by coring in that situation (they already got a pretty lucky wipe by a terrible Roccat fight) and they took it. But even if Roccat took a bad engage they'd be up storm talents and they simply wouldn't lose.
You have to kill a keep before you can attack the core.
My point is that they could get a big experience boost and map presence boost by taking down the keep and still have enough time to take the immortal, which would buy them enough time to catch up in XP and mostly even it out. They don't need to fight with the immortal a talent down, they can instead use it to buy time for them and catch up.

sigh I wish Khaldor would be casting. I like that you don't have to see it to know whats going on. Not that I am against other casters, but I have to work still and can't pay attention with my eyes.

That was a well fought game. Roccat ran out of steam.

And also having to translate whenever Kaelaris says something like, "But Arthas will be okay once the Wraith Walk goes off...." :p.
Khaldor at least never misspeaks about talents and abilities, which is nice.

I don't have a problem with Jake / Cooby, in fact they should have casted the finals in Vegas not Tastetosis. But that's the same reason I think Khaldor should be here instead of one or both of them.
But they are ESL casters and Khaldor is not, so that seems to be the deciding factor.
Also why is this an elimination game? What happened earlier.
Edit: Just checked liquipedia, TL lost to Kharazim followed by triple warrior, more Asian meta biting them huh?

They went for Vikings, enemy took a composition that doesn't care about Viking soak advantage. They really need to start taking giant slayer heroes if they want to use Vikings.

Lolllll yeah I was quite on tilt early in the day. Combination of having to observe when I didn't anticipate it, while casting, while trying to production problem solve. Rip my mind. It happens sometimes. Never had a casting mishap quite that derp in heroes before.

Nah, you're good, man! It's a very different world to cast compared to starcraft. The pace that stuff happens is so rapid, I'm amazed anyone can remember all the names of talents and abilities and say them correctly on time. Love your casting, keep it up!
