The REAL Goobusters posted:Hi . Eg will win ti I love EG but there's no way. Crit's drafts are sometimes such garbage that EG has no chance to win the game and I think that will cause them to lose a series later on in the tournament.

Is this the first year in a while where there is no clear favorite going into the international? The clear favorite hasn't always won, but I remember that going into every TI there has been at least 1 team that everyone considered to be a step above the rest. TI3 - Alliance (we all know what happened) TI4 - Newbee (then they struggled in the group stage but came out swinging in the main event) TI5 - Secret (It's a disaster!) TI6 - Wings The closest would be what, OG, because of the major wins? But even then I wouldn't put them that far ahead of iG, EG, VP, Liquid. The field seems to be the closest its ever been. Edit: I'm doubting myself about TI4 now, because I can't remember what people were thinking about DK or VG heading into TI. mikeraskol fucked around with this message at 19:14 on Jul 28, 2017 |

Reality Winner posted:Newbee were the second best team in China for like 6 months before TI4. Them doing poorly in the group stage was the surprise. That's what I thought, I just couldn't remember if they were the favorite. Earlier in the year it was DK DK DK but I thought they had already started fading heading into TI. And then Xiao8 unretired and joined Newbee and everyone expected them to make serious waves. And yes, the structure of the tournament made it so that Newbee knew it was in the grand finals (or was it winner's bracket finals) like two days in advance and got to sit around and do nothing. mikeraskol fucked around with this message at 00:36 on Jul 29, 2017 |

Rubick has much more flavor than Pudge as well, the possibilities for his arcana are amazing. I don't know how you could vote for Pudge.

Kuku and Raven are seriously good players and they showed it there. 1437 is a great captain as well. The PA pick was inspired, once she got rolling EG literally could not kill her, and that was without a bkb (which was pretty ballsy).

It's kind of a problem that Crit's drafts are all over the place and like 40% of the time are complete outdrafts for the other team

Kind of a depressing day for our NA boys. None of EG, C9 or DC look good.

Nf3 posted:How likely is it that teams deliberately throw in group stage for some reasons only understood by them and their coaches but not really by us audience members? Or perhaps the casters try not to talk about it because it cheapens the match? I really feel like they draft more loosely in these group stages. Literally not happening. Being in the upper bracket is huge. All the teams that are actually good are winning. LGD, LGDFY, Liquid, OG. It just appears that EG is not good.

IGV and TNC should have been easy points (TNC somewhat less easy). If they want to be near the top of the group those were 2-0s they needed to get.
