Where are you getting three? I'm counting five. That's 5 x 3 x ~45 / 60 = 11.25 hours, assuming all series go to three series and assuming average game length is 45 minutes, but at the same time this is ignoring possible delays and technical difficulites as well as assuming one game starts as soon as the last ends, no time for drafting either. One thing that is certain is that they cannot delay the actual tournament because whoops we didn't get done with the wildcard games.

The first two bo3 are concurrent. There are two games going on right now.

I hope Synderen gets an ice blast kill on the invis Riki at least once because it's one of the greatest feelings you can get in Dota

they only really have oracle to remove linkens and it makes initiating on the Morph way harder.
