Smart of the liquipedia guy to put hellraisers and infamous at the bottom so they won't have to move them later

I think HR should do decently well actually. They've been bootcamping in the Summit house for a while now so they've at least been scrimming the other teams in NA.

TI performance isn't so much about previous results versus who you actually bootcamped with and how well you can adapt in the tournament. TI5 EG and CDEC were definitely early scrim partners after CDEC won the wild card. Then TI6 DC and Wings were both bootcamping at the Summit house scrimming each other. I'm not saying HR TI7 winners but I don't think they'll be the wet fart 18th place that everybody has them pegged as either.

Gold Abed got me like 90 points in 4 games what a boss, shame about the 0-4 though.

How's everyone doing on fantasy? I've got 1770.42 with only a handful of golds played. My lineup for monday is Miracle, Sumail, Universe, Boboka and Kuroky.

Also if you like those carafe immortals they're actually on the marketplace already, no year-long delays. If you like anyone not named antimage then they're cheaper than trying to crack a chest open anyways.

Nah I've watched em all I just like to fantasize in my bracket predictions. Last year I had Secret winning the whole thing lmao

At least we might get C9 vs EG hopefully. That'd be a sick game to watch.

since rtz and envy both bombed out of the tournament, maybe they will finally get it over with and play on the same team, never winning anything again

RTZ hasn't won a main stage game since TI5. EE's last main stage win was a loving Singsing meepo game, back in TI4. If they played together it's actually pretty likely they'll never win at a TI ever again.

Why is Nyx Assassin almost always the first ban?

It's like playing against Riki, except that instead of a little fart cloud you get stunned for 2.4 seconds from invisibility. Also mana burn makes it hard for most int heroes to lane mid.

Probably dumb question, but how do they create the stage? Holograms? Is it CGI that gets overlayed on the camera feed?

Look up stype GRIP, I think that's the specific thing they use for this.

omni has been impressively poo poo from what i've seen thus far

The pick is really strong but he's getting shut down by some excellent stuns and silences by the ES. If newbee doesn't shut him down for a second he can repel morphling or bristle in the middle of a static storm and the fight becomes very hard.
