Game 3 was too easy for GG (2-1). Many have hoped that it's gonna be Team Secret that will stop GG but then, they've lost against them.
Who knows if Puppey will come up with some decent strategy that shall beat GG if ever they face it again in the near future. Team Secret has to win the other series' that they've got or else, they'll remain in the bottom standings.
Game 3 was tight until the 12th min mark, where they lost that 5v5 team fight and it was all GG after that. I thought they got a shot at winning, but GG immediately pulled away to close the series within 23mins.
Well, this happens with one single clash, and the entire game changes quickly. Too bad for Team Secret as many have been counting on them just to beat GG. It looks like GG is the villain these days but that's just the challenge for most because there is no doubt that they're the strongest now. GG is good at capitalizing and taking advantage of these situations when there's some fluke and choke being made by their opponent. Teams have to remember that when they're against GG.

Quest is such an underrated team, for those that don't know them. They're formerly known as Ooredoo Thunders. Entity is also a strong team but they've been swept by Quest so easily. And ATF is with the Quest.

Team Liquid dropped a map against D1 Hustlers just now, and it's not surprising when they went for a Windranger carry, and I already saw how that went after watching one of OG's games.
The game ended 2-1 but it's still with Team Liquid.

Two days from now, two bottom teams OG and Team Secret will have their match.

Now I see that there is this JDG - T1 series in the semi finals tomorrow. I think it can be one of the most delightful series in the tournament. Because JDG won the latest LPL Spring Playoffs against BLG and their playing style has been quite impressive so far. I don't think T1 can win this by not giving any game to their opponent. But still it would most probably end up with a 3-1 or 3-2 T1 win.
Unfortunately, i'm on the JDG train, and the series felt like it was close to a grand final. Cheesy When T1 was up 2-1, I thought we'll see a 3-1 result because whenever JDG lose a 5v5 team fight T1 always sprints it down mid and destroys their base before they can defend. Luckily, T1 had a bad draft in game 4 similar to game 1, then in game 5, it came down to who will make the more costly mistake, and T1 starting a 4v5 fight hoping to get a pick off backfired and cost them the series.



JDG really won the series by 3-2 and it was a quite lovely one to watch though. I must have totally forgotten about the Ruler difference for JDG.  Grin  Gumayusi is of course a very skilled ADC but he still has much more to learn from Ruler in my opinion. Aside from that Faker was really bad in this series. I didn't understand especially one thing about him here.

He insisted on playing Nautilus mid despite losing hard every time against knight. Just why would you continue to take this big risk despite not being able to win any matchup against your opponent?

Earlier today, BLG winning against GenG was a surprise, and on top of that, it was a sweep. I wonder what was going on the side of GenG as they can't even win one map. Now there's a possibility that we might see an LPL grand final. It's tough to see BLG win against T1, but it can happen if they punish T1 for their unusual drafts.

I had high hopes for Secret in DPC tour 3 but so far they cannot find a win and this tour is stacked with talent players. They also tend to be favorites in bookies eyes so I think at some point , Secret will start to get victories in a row and hopefully they will avoid relegation because any major or even TI is not the same without Secret.

They will be play today against the best team in the world GG because that is the honest truth...there was never a team who dominated Dota 2 pro scene like GG is doing right now and I'm curious if Secret can bring a secret strategy against them. Game starts in about 3 hours from now.
What a series for GG and Team Secret. Although Team Secret has managed to win 1 map for this series the entire series has been won by GG.

Blast.tv major in Paris is about to end this weekend but we have four teams scheduled today to take the stage.
Heroic vs Faze and Team Vitality vs Into the breach

Heroic are @1.55x while Faze @2.35x while I when with Faze in their last match and won the bet. They did struggle as it went to double overtime.
I like Heroic to take this match and couple it with the later match when Team Vitality @1.12x vs Into the breach @5.50x.
Vitality are the home country favorites here so I will go with them in an acca.

Tomorrow we have Monte vs Gamerlegion and Team Liquid vs Apeks.
So very different types of teams to choose from and a difficult decision on who would win their matches.

I wasn't able to watch the G2 - BLG series yesterday due to being busy. But after watching the detailed recap of it I see that Caps was one of the bad players of the day. I saw him even finishing with stats like 1 kill and 7 deaths in one game. Caps is actually a really skilled mid laner but he can't give the expected as for strong opponents like these.

China and Korea teams are still dominating MSI and it doesn't seem like this will change. C9 are the only team left outside these countries in the tournament now. However I'm expecting them to get destroyed by Gen.G as well. NA teams are even worse than EU ones in my opinion.

Just as I said C9's fate was also the same with the other teams across Europe and North America. Gen.G put on a great show today and won comfortably by 3-0 in total.

SEA was done and I'm now into WEU. And it was a sad start for Team Secret, they've been beaten 2-0 by Team Liquid who was also 0-2 on the first day of this DPC tour 3.

Just want to go back to the SEA where Talon and Blacklist was hot on the 2nd map. But for the first map, it was an easy game for Talon, what a great Dota and perfect executions from them.

On the 2nd map, I thought that Blacklist will take it as there have been too many chokes from 23 with those chronosphere's but then still, thanks to Mikoto's storm.

This is how it looks in MSI right now. JDG were really quite comfortable against BLG by a 3-0 victory. Now they have become T1's opponent in the semi finals. However their job is going to be really difficult of course. Gen.G also tried their best against T1 but it wasn't enough this time. It feels like T1 will win by 3-1 against JDG but let's wait and see.

By the way in that case T1's opponent in the final series can be Gen.G once again. Because I think they are still the strongest team among the teams remaining in lower bracket. If this happens Gen.G will come for a revenge and they showed they had that potential the last time.  Smiley

The balance patch for Dota dropped just before the DPC Tour 3 kicks off within a few hours, and Quinn's heroes (Void Spirit and Pangolier) got nerfed, but that'll only mean he can shift to other good heroes like Puck, Leshrac, and Ember Spirit.  Tongue
The DPC tour 3 is in and I've just watched the first ever game for the SEA region, it's Talon and Team SMG. Both teams have got those heroes you've mentioned, Void Spirit and Pangolier.

Well, it's Mikoto's Void Spirit and that was an easy game for them while Midone played for the Pangolier. As for Quinn, he's honestly got a lot of heroes and this is going to be an easy adjustment for him if those heroes that have been nerfed doesn't look good on him.

3 matches today for the SEA region. There goes the first match and then next matches in particular order will be, Execration vs Bleed and then Blacklist vs Boom.

Just for a note, Bleed's new coach is Misery.

I'm impressed that JDG swept BLG this time, and BLG almost had game 2 in the bag, but it only took one wrong fight in the baron pit to give JDG the win. BLG tried their best to focus on Ruler, but JDG is too good at keeping him alive in most team fights. The upper bracket matchup between T1 and JDG will be tight, but i'm hoping for JDG to win since Gen G will probably have no issue getting to the lower bracket final to guarantee an LCK vs LPL final.  Cheesy

It is getting quite boring as the matchups among them are very predictable. I would love to see a European or North American team to make it to the finals somehow to be the opponent of a Far East team but I know it isn't very realistic to expect now.  Grin
Dude, nothing is impossible, if the results are too obvious, the battles will no longer be attractive  Grin getting into a final seems difficult, but what about semi-final, if they're lucky enough, they'll make it


I'm deciding between BLG and JDG, both are doing really well  Roll Eyes

Of course it is a game in the end so anytime this look can change but there is still a huge gap to fill for European teams against those teams to be honest. I hope they can get better in time and we watch more competitive series.



Today I was able to watch the Gen.G - T1 series. T1 made a wonderful start by getting 2-0 ahead first. They were really stomping their opponent in those games. I liked Gumayusi a lot today by the way. His contribution to the team with his individual performance was really huge. The 3rd game of the series ended by a loss for them and I must admit it was Gumayusi's fault as he became complacent a little and couldn't position himself well. Winning only one fight there opened the doors of comeback for Gen.G and they made it even 2-2.

But T1 still stopped them by a solid effort in the last game. It was lovely to watch these great teams clashing against each other again after LCK.  Smiley

My next play might be to take every over 3.5 maps because we're having a grand finals rematch on three out of the four series aside from G2 vs Mad Lions, and this season all four matchups went over four maps.
really interesting, this inadvertently creates an old scenario, like previous MSIs. Only one team can be selected from each region, and now it's repeating itself. I just had a win this afternoon in the match between T1 and GenG, fortunately they still do what I believe in  Cheesy When it led to game 5, I was really worried when T1 didn't do well in the B05 series lately.

This is the current look of the bracket stage in MSI. Round 1 was really comfortable for Chinese and Korean teams. Because European and North American teams are still far behind Far East countries on League of Legends. This has been the same for many years and still we don't see any change in this situation.

I believe JDP will win 3-0, do you want to bet on the score?  Tongue
The odds got worse when it closed (from 1.54 to 1.35), but I still took it, knowing it was close to a free win. The second game was the closest out of the three and got me worried when GG led for almost 5k before throwing it back to JDG.  Grin

I just want to see on how Team Secret will react on against GG. Since most of the strong teams that we know of didn't even get a flinched against GG with a series. There have been some losses but those were just like 1 lose for them and then the rest were all victories. Quinn and Armel match up and I know that many are still not yet impressed with Crystallis' performances for the past tournaments but it's all a team play and fight and we'll see how the chemistry of Team Secret with their new mid player Armel goes. They did well on the division 2 way up to their division 1 slot. While Ace is now an offlane for GG, he's been with Team Secret before as their position 1.
Lots of roster changes on which certain players do really go from one team to another. I didnt really expect for Armel to be able to join up a tier 1 team considering that he's been on SEA teams for long.

This does prove out that this guy is really that something have on which top tier teams do make out recognition about his skill. About GG then winning up that recent Berlin Major.
Trying even to look back against Liquid, then it did really show up that there's no really change on beating up this team. Skill execution, response and objectives is really that
crucially been followed.
There are a lot of talents that are willing to explore other regions as long as there's a team that will adopt them. It's good for them to try another region with experienced players and teams as well. That's a win-win for most of those players that are going to a different region because playstyle there is different but they'll surely adopt it as soon as their chemistry clicks in.

For Secret, then lets see on how Puppey would really be making out some nasty plans and looking for some ways on getting in par with GG if ever they would be able to
succeed on rallying on.
I am sure that he's got plans already on them because they've watched GG's matches on the Berlin major.
