I'm not sure what I would do if OG wins back-to-back TIs.

IcePhoenix posted:They'll probably just pick whichever team is seeded fourth, which is TNC for Group A, and probably Fnatic for group B (but if EG loses this game Fnatic has the tiebreak over them) so it looks like they did in fact separate it by role because the ten in the asg are the ones I struck through when I reread it and thought it was just top ten overall I'm picking somnus because he's one of the players most likely to take it seriously enough to play well. SumaiL would probably be my first choice if there weren't an incredibly high chance that he just goes full clownshoes and doesn't care. Also I have a rematch of TI8 in my bracket finals.

Micke ftw E: Micke has an absurdly heigh ceiling, he just needs to get a bit more consistent and he'll be absolutely top tier. Some of the poo poo he does on morphling in particular is just bonkers.

My bracket predictions have LGD dropping to OG in the UB finals, beating Secret in the LB finals for a OG vs. LGD rematch in the grand finals. As much as I love OG, I really like the no repeat TI winners tradition so I predicted LGD to win it. Also FY deserves a TI win, the guy consistently pulls off sick plays and his Rubick/Shaker are godlike. But this is TI so none of that will happen and well probably get a TNC vs Infamous GF or some other wild outcome nobody could have predicted.

Wings was one of the favorites at TI6 and so was Liquid at TI7, same with EG at TI5.

a better question might be, how often has the top seeded group stage team won?

Huh, I only really watch TI anymore. Didn't realize Alliance was good enough again to make TI. Thanks thread for pointing out those OG clownshoes games, that's the poo poo I live for. Makes me miss fountain hook Navi.

I dunno, it doesn't seem like EG can beat enough teams to get Top 3. I think they'll crush the lower bracket for a while but there's just too many teams who look actually strong as opposed to EG which are just barely skirting by on their wins

It remains to be seen which group was stronger this year. If it's group B I could definitely see EG making it to top 4 and possibly facing off against OG at least once.

I think they'll crush the lower bracket for a while but there's just too many teams who look actually strong as opposed to EG which are just barely skirting by on their wins I'm not sure about this, they went 1-5 to start and then followed with 8-2, including a 2-0 over Vici. I'm never sure how much being "in rhythm" is important in Dota compared to, say, basketball but there's definitely a possibility that EG are better than 9-7 indicates.

Last year OG went 3-3-2 just like EG did this year in groups and went on to win TI. So literally anything can happen.

The only thing you need to know in order to root for Infamous is that apparently they had PPD so salty he put all of them on ignore.
