Jerax MVP. His ES games were insane, and then he plays Rubick and between the fissures and boat, he turned every team fight in game 5.

I like that in the end, neither of the 3 big favorites won. They all did pretty alright still so they didn't just completely mess up, but both EG and OG came strong even though most people wouldn't have given them much of a chance(other than fanboys of each teams) due to low amount of time to train together, and OG especially recruiting some pubstar and having their former coach playing.
Was a pretty cool tournament though, solid dota all around, game is in a pretty good place competitively I think. Since the strategy seems to be a lot about drafting for both laning and lategame, there's a lot of variety in picks.

They never drafted to win lanes or early game aside from the axe pick in game four. Their whole strategy revolved around mid to late game outscale while hard countering the lgd hard carry. Spectre and PL earning first rotation bans and the Zeus pick in game five.

Geez, just saw this on Reddit. Fucking insane.
For anyone that can't see it (I didn't), click spoiler.
He sells two items during all that, plus the bounty rune, giving him just enough gold for buyback.

Was coming to post this. Outside of the game 2 stomp, that was one of the funnest series to watch to date. Game 4 was amazing.
OG said fuck the meta and did their thing.

Seems like OG has always done what works for them and sometimes it didn’t always pay off but holy shit this TI was one for the books
I would’ve said it regardless of being an OG fanboi or not, I’ve been watching professional DoTA since TI1 (and before I guess if you count the random LANs etc) and I’ve never seen such intensity and the level of play displayed this entire tournament by everyone who showed up to compete. The fact that it played out the way it did is just icing on the cake. The story of it all is just mind fucking blowing. Pubstars now have legitimate chances to be practical over night millionaires (in a sense). Crazy.

Add in the fact they got into the tournament through open qualifiers makes it even more amazing.
