Yeah, their itemization was dumb, since we were already spamming sentries all over the place due to roaming BH and they laned undying bottom, leaving alch/me vs magus, which is ez lane. PA should have gone like Drums/bkb or Vlads/bkb or maybe just straight rush it, but since top went so well, I rotated to mid and bottom and just shat all over them. They didn't have much nuke damage and with Kotl we could just park in front of their tower and spam spells. It usually ended with undying running in with tombstone, me popping ulti and getting triple kill.

Also, make sure to put down sentry in mid at the start, it neutralizes this whole roaming BH stupidity in pubs and if you upgrade chicken ASAP, you won't ever get it sniped.

I think expecting anything great out of any german stacks isn't very realistic, I have seen too many versions of Mouz fail to believe.
This version seems more than just 5-players who have been around for ages though. The entire team have been pretty brilliant individually at various times over the past year.

IMO MFF has some potential, simply because it seems like Notail is looking for new heroes still in this patch and Miracle is actually really fucking good and can carry his team through some terrible decisions, so they have chance to upset, but yeah, all the others have looked terribly average.
Monkey business is the notail team, MFF is the SingSing stack. I think I've only seen notail playing two heroes so far, mostly Ember and he doesn't appear to be as good as the top Ember players.

[I wonder about Team Secret and Alliance though, first one could be the king of EU easily and the latter one needs a kick in the ass, since they looked terribly uninspired or just plain not playing to win. S4 drafting TI3 lineups and stuff.
I'd really like to see Secret play. Its funny to me they are getting direct invites when there essentially no continuity with the previous roster. Also amusing to see GosuGamers keep the rankings for these teams, e.g. Cloud9 has a high rating but has zero players from that era.

I can't get behind alliance, even with Carl back I can't see them doing any better than the past two years tbh.

NIP vs Empire Game 2 WCA. Totally ridiculous rubick play.

Edit: Apparently Game 1, the bo3 counter was borked

I just played a all random game and got stuck with a carry pugna. Went mana boots into Aghs into Dagon 5. So much fucking fun. Especially since the other team never got bkbs.

Makes sense. People would eventually get compendium fatigue and you would hurt future events.

This C9/Leviathan final for BTS is ridiculous. About to hit the 80 minute mark.

Edit: Also, CLQ is subbing in for Leviathan which I guess makes it more interesting? Edit2: May not be the real CLQ.
