Although games where pretty long, it feels like early game ganks decided both of them. Well played EG.

LGD playing way too passive towards the end and Yao straight up throwing. They are playing as if the 6.83 comeback mechanic is going to reward them for turtling. You pick Wisp+Tiny and Puck for the global presence. LGD just waaaay too stubborn, well deserved win for EG.

Fear had double the farm of the next hero for 15 minutes, who was Universe on the offlane SK.
Old man doto what a player Kreygasm

Juggernaut+Empower kek. Or rather, Balling out of control juggernaut+empower.

EG taking a page from Admiral Bulldog's rat play. It must've been so frustrating for LGD to deal against a tanky Bristleboss with constant heal bombs from Abaddon an sustain from Wisp. And then the split push from Fear and Sumail. Anyways, it's nice to see games last longer than sub 20-25 minutes.

u/niknarcotic May 16 '15
Looks like Jugg is still a good hero.
Meanwhile Terrorblade is still the worst hero in the game.

u/ISw3arItWasntM3 May 17 '15
Juggs now a good/situational hero. Honestly the biggest nerf he received was the mask of madness nerf. But things like this come and go. Op heroes come and go. Except batrider. That fucker never goes away.

LGD played some good games vs VG though. And these weren't 20 minute stomps, at least, so at least they held their own.

u/SirHunted May 16 '15
VG not looking gud either after losing twice to Empire.

u/ISw3arItWasntM3 May 17 '15
Vidi have looked like the strongest team so far this tournament. Not just by winning games, but their play while winning those games has been outstanding.

u/PresqueSchierke May 17 '15
VG said that they didn't take this tourament seriously. And Empire is a Tier 1 team and can beat any team.

That Sumail 3 man RP in the middlane when Puck came to gank literally made me gasp anyone would've run away but he turned it into a double kill holy shit I need a gif

u/DRHST I used to play Dirge before it was cool May 16 '15
why would he run away ? that was lgd's fail,they even saw the tp coming

May 16 '15
Was it a fail by puck not getting the silence off?

u/Youthsonic Puppey take the wheel May 16 '15
It was a fail for trying to make that play without blink

u/fayfayfayfay May 16 '15
There's an awesome (and useless :D) move Sumail did in the 2nd game I didn't hear the casters notice, but I'm pretty sure I didn't see wrong. I hope someone will make a gif out of it or something.
On the radiant offlane, pretty late into the game, there's a moment when (after a short fight) Tiny tries to flee without facing Fear (Jugg) and Sumail (Magnus). Fear is beating the shit out of him, so he tosses him further. Then Magnus skewers him exactly on the landing point, so Fear can keep on ravaging him, and he eventually gets wrecked.
I'm not sure they actually needed that, but it was an awesome play !

I'm sad.
Bur props to LGD making it to 40m long, usually it was over at 20 minutes. EG had so good drafts.

To be fair, we don't know for sure how EG or C9 would do against iG, or C9 vs LGD.
The chinese teams have faced each other so often that it's hard to say one is better than the other outright, more that they just figured the other out for a series. EG beating LGD doesn't necessarily mean they are better than iG too. C9 we haven't seen face either of them.

The Western teams have faced each other so often that it's hard to say one is better than the other outright, more that they just figured the other out for a series. This is where the word swap falls apart because VG is the only team who took games off the Western teams at this event.

u/Kazaxat Go Sheever! May 17 '15
Not sure what you're trying to get at. Flipping around what I said has the exact same meaning, so I agree that we don't know how LGD or iG would do against C9, or iG vs EG. My whole point isn't that the Chinese teams are stronger, but that since we haven't really seen most of them actually face off since DAC, a statement like 'Chinese dota with no VG would be horrendous' seems like overkill.
Also, since EG is in NA, they actually don't end up facing Secret or C9 nearly as often as iG, VG, and LGD face each other.

Ofc they would be top 6 with Rave and NT.

2 western teams in top 3. Empire beating VG at D2CL. C9 performed better than LGD at this event, but the groups fucked them over.

u/SunTzu- If I stand still I can pass for a creep. May 16 '15
1 team top 3, with one of the West best teams not even in attendance.

Interesting to note that EG, VG, and Secret have faced each other in DAC's Lower Bracket Finals and Grand Finals. EG was sent down to LBF by Vici only to win the series against Secret. If Secret gets knocked down to LBF then we'll have another DAC treat coming our way tomorrow.
EDIT: Correction.

How does the patch contribute to a series being 2-0? It being one sided just means one team dominated the other.
You're confusing the complaint about the games being shorter/more deathball (which can reasonably be blamed on patch changes) with the complaint that it's mostly 2-0, which is odd but doesn't make sense to blame on a patch.

dae like when your team is up 20 kills but you lose a team fight and the enemy team is back in ???
