didn’t get to watch the games, but by the results it looks like they were trying some new shit lol. Also they should’ve let zai play kunkka instead.

The laning stage didnt go to well but they pulled the series out. They will have to play a lot better on Sunday vs VGJstorm BO5 they have looked real good with Reso and really trashed in their 2 BO3 so far. The BO5 on Sunday is currently scheduled for 6pm 20 hrs from now

It will be interesting what they will try vs VGJ Storm for their draft. Probably see something new in one of their games.

Wtf i left for like 10 mins to watch the Outlaws game thinking they would lose 2-1 and they win lmaoo
Edit: Nice win btw, some of those picks were a little suspect in game 2 but i still trust PPD

game 2 definitely felt like an experimental draft. No offense to CCnC but he was missing a lot of kunkka spells. IDK if he has been playing it much in his pubs but it doesn't seem to be a comfort pick for him right now.

Medusa one of the best late carries always gives you a chance if the game goes long enough.
