    TNC and VP out. Really surprising. Well VP choking at TI pretty standard.

    OG’s draft in that game was wild.

    I think Newbee had a shot but were unable to have enough vision to see the Rosh. I watched that game and it was amazing to see how much they press into their timings and just play with so much confidence.

    The Wombo is strong.

    It was weird seeing Secret get completely out drafted in G3 though.

    Ppd in game 1 Draft said sometimes puppey pulls weird shit but they are so talented it sometimes works out. Obviously worked at the start of the game but yikes at the end

    Good point. They’re crazy talented. Nisha was feast or famine in G1, G2, and G3. Any bit of consistency and I think they win the series. Zai and Yapzor played really well I thought. Zai just had no protection in G3. He would initiate and get crushed. SD has been a really surprisingly dominant pick.

    i felt that fly was outstanding the entire series. whether that be on ET or SD, he controlled teamfights perfectly with stomp or disruption/purge. was the difference maker imo.

    not to mention how many camps he stacked in G3

    I didn't see game 2, but looks like RTZ screwed up and they should have swept them 2-0 when he double tapped blink and went the opposite way. They probably would have won the game if he follows up with the team after the ravage. It let Secret back in. Glad they didn't tilt out of game 3, that was a great comeback.

    Tomorrow vs. OG oh man, I don't know. Seems OG has their number lately.

    OG and EG is going to be really interesting primarily because it’s a massive clash of styles though I think both teams are capable of playing any.

    It’s clear OG wants to end games by 35 minutes, either by early aggressive pressure or surviving early game, and hitting their 15-20 timing windows with their hero pool.

    EG obviously excels in the late game and wants games to get there. Early in the season they were getting absolutely crushed early to mid game against T1 teams, specifically Secret, though they have been better at “surviving” now.

    I’m excited to see the drafts because it should be fun to see what heroes EG allows OG to play.

    I love Rich as a new host this year. He's probably the closest thing to Yames since his unceremonious firing. Dude was wearing a 70's open-buttoned shirt under his blazer last night and basically 2 different colored bowling shoes :laugh:

    His postgame interviews with the losers have been brutal haha. I don’t mind it at all but some have complained about his insensitivity. I think it’s hilarious. He’s been fantastic and I hope he continues to get gigs.

    Infamous basically plays a borderline-absurd aggressive style of dota and non T1 teams don't know how to handle it. They're MVP Phoenix 2.0.

    Feel like EG outdrafted OG in G1 and OG outdrafted EG in G2. We shall see.

    OG has no natural chase until blinks come online. Arteezy TB again.

    EG getting steamrolled. They got outdrafted hardcore.

    Gotta hope they can keep it close until late game and try to get RTZ online otherwise they’re in trouble.

    When OG has high mobility heroes, they just dominate

    Let’s see if they can keep it up. I think they’re a better late game lineup.
