I got the Weaver arms but they're just showing up as a graphic error, haven't tried to restart the client or anything though, I'm sure it's my issue. Never play Weaver so may consider swapping them with you or something once they open up if you don't find a pair.

I had two Excedrin PM last night about an hour before that Secret vs. C9 game started, wasn't sure if I was hallucinating while watching and what really happened, did. Beginning was like >Report Techies after feeding top then he just started roaming and causing some ruckus here and there, but it felt like 4 Heroes vs. C9 with an occasional CM explosion. But I was like really really out of it and falling asleep for 10-15 seconds a time.

Newbee is a shell of a team this competition. The morning Secret vs. CDEC game was good. Don't think I've been able to catch an EG game yet, thankfully it is the weekend now.

C9 self destructed after losing that techies game. They tilted and went 0-4 on day 2. EQ and Secret both look a lot better than anyone expected.

Eastern shuffle is happening after this tourney so the results from Chinese teams aren't too surprising honestly.

I don't think you throw a 2M+ $ tourney just because you have a shot at better team afterwards. Until playoffs, we can just guess, I mean Newbee barely squeezed into the upper bracket at TI4

I didn't expect na'vi to play as well as they have. When xboct is playing at this level its really impressive. I also think icefrog built centaur with xboct in mind. What happened that all of a sudden chen is back into the meta? He was out for a long time and I can't think of what changed to bring him back. Outside of Secret looking at the standings it's really surprising where teams like eg, cloud 9, newbie and ehome are at the moment. I wish these games where at better times to watch them live but at least the streams haven't been as bad as I thought they'd be. Sorry for the rambling I stayed up to watch alot of this tournament today/yesterday

All the vods get added here really quickly. Navi has a lot of experience, so you can't ever count them out completely, but I'd be surprised if they made it far in playoffs. At this point I want to see how far can Secret take it before they lose, because every single one of them is playing out of their minds. Arteezy self deny vs LGD and then the wolf blocks, Kuroky absolutely deciding their game vs Newbee with stealing 2 ultimates per fight. Shame the vod is cropped before that happened due to lags and dc.

Chen had a few buffs, mobility of his creeps, he can now recall them to himself, +1 charmed creep at max rank, so you can run some scary combos and Agh's let's you grab ancients, with the ancient granite golem having +15% hp aura, which is huge when going for high ground.

To me the most interesting team at DAC has been Hellraisers. Should be interesting to see if they are a team with a limited playstyle or real up and comers.

Was a decent EG/Secret game for a bit there, then it just went all downhill after EG got wiped at t2 top tower.

Can cross lina off that list above.

Nice to see Xbox playing his ass off again. Now they just need to set Dendi up to play well.

Wow, both the Na'Vi and BG game was great. Nice turn around for the BG vs. VG game after the start.
