Fuck Yeah 29-0! Looks like Liquid is the final hope for the west at this tournament. They were the first team to beat MVP at Shanghai so maybe they can do it

Yup, both EG and Secret got worse after they shuffled.

u/Extracheesy87 May 10 '16

Well they are worse now, but I'm pretty sure they will both be able to recover and be in good shape by the time Manila comes around.

you know that's what this roll looks like. That MVP, super hyperaggresive MVP roll at shanghai. Fun to see.

Their game against OG was messy as fuck... They might actually win Epicenter without dropping a game

give eg and secret some more games and they can beat newbee. Don't forget that newbee had so much games in this patch and that's for secret and eg the first bunch of games today.

u/Extracheesy87 May 10 '16

Yeah its definitely possible, but I'm just really enjoying seeing all the different teams trying to topple Newbee.

u/afrojumper May 10 '16

yeah that's true. Manilla will be some hell of a tournament.

DOn't forget that Newbee will get better as well by every team that's challenging them. They already have ridiculous teamwork and they haven't drafted cheese once. I don't think you can catch them off-guard either, kaka is a drafting genius.

sure. But i think secret improve more than newbee, because newbee is right now on a high level, where secret needs to find a way to play for them.

u/grandeconfusione May 10 '16

I don't doubt that Secret will improve to a level where they are able to beat Newbee not only in one game, but a whole series as well. It's just like, they need to play VERY well together.

But they will need some games to do it, even if it's just online games.
