"Newbee in the Rosh pit, Navi is going to scout it out--WHOOAAA Many Goblak died to bring them this information."

Did Goblak even die in that fight? Plus Newbee was essentially double (or triple?) team wiped in about 3 minutes there, which is insane to think about.

Goblak charged into the rosh pit and got destroyed in about a second. Not that it mattered, because Dendi and XBOCT were massive.

Only one GG, they tilted to the end.

Iceiceice has said that one of the reasons the chinese teams are not doing that well is because most of them expect to make roster changes after Chinese New Year. We'll probably see a large eastern reshuffle after DAC is over.

Newbee's one of those teams owned by a stupid rich person. I think it might even be Hao's Dad, or else a similar family name. Hao's Dad is loving loaded, though.

Point is, they'll just put together another team during the upcoming New Year break. Xiao8 return is but one of the many possibilities.

Naw, even in my No Fun League certainly Secret was well farmed enough for :fuckoff: moves. I just laughed at the dunkfest being interrupted due to mana so abruptly that you could almost hear a record scratch.


Notail Wisp can only so so much for Tiny, who in turn can only do so much for EE. D:

It started falling from grace during The Summit, at least enough that it wasn't an instant slam pick regardless of Secret's draft. But for Tiny you won't find better.

Navi Draft: Two players on personal best heroes, two more on FOTM heroes, and Funnik bringing the utility.

LGD Draft: gently caress BUILDINGS. gently caress all structures! Burn them down!

It's not often a team decides that Tiny & Wisp aren't enough base-krush just by themselves.


EDIT: A weird moment where Tiny is relocated in to save his Tidehunter and tosses Tide, killing him with fall damage.

Goddamn Na'vi looked scary that match. It's nice to see them playing good again. Still not up to the top teams but way better than they have been.

I'm pretty sure that there hasn't been a Kunka, Huskar, or Oracle. Pudge and Sven were only in wildcards. Could be wrong, though.

Also, Sumail on Storm is always fun to watch.
