All my whats for what happened in the Dig - Expert series
That was such a close set. I have to say though that Dignitas sort of got outmacroed on both maps. Expert essentially gave away the early game in both matches with a plan to win the late game. Felt very calculated.
Not as much as Fnatic got outdrafted in that ToD game.
That fucking time when cut to the players while an intense moment of the game was happening..I literally yelled at my computer scream.

So far, last week's Kharazim is 0-3 three maps in a row.
That Bo3 Single elim Mode is goin to get so much criticism if there is another upset like Expert winning over Dig
I feel like you need a double elimination if you're gonna go BO3, there's just too much variance otherwise.

Fnatic losing 2 games to Tempo Storm in whatever format is going to be a big upset.
I don´t think it´s a problem with the format. Expert flat out outplayed Dig (and it´s not like Dig are so far ahead of Expert, let´s not forget they didn´t make the Western Clash not long ago, even if they have refound their form since - they weren´t all that impressive in the group stage mind you) and Fnatic are trying too hard to hide strats that it´s costing them.

What is it with those Kara picks...just eugh
This is the best Khara pick in these four games though. Uther solo heal is gonna be ultra rough; they need a level advantage via Dehaka or need to blow up people ultra fast. Either is possible, but not easy.

Tempest's lesson after the loss: 'We plan to allocate the remainder of 2017 to improving our mechanics...'
Ballistix before the game: ' ~ Can't lose; better mechanics...'
I believed it too. Twice. But I can better afford to be wrong than two of the best teams in the world. Koreans really need to learn there are more aspects to the game than clicking really fast, hitting your skillshots and jukeing nicely.
WTF with that draft? Really? God...that was just horrible. How do you even draft that? I am severely disappointed.

Rolled my eyes and went to bed after seeing draft pick 10 in the last game. Good decision it seems after having a peek in the reddit thread.
Still criticism of R20 is way out of proportion. Both Tempo Storm and them improved, exceeded all realistic expectations and showed they upset even the biggest names before 'deer in headlights' sets in.
Just caught up, now both my favourite NA and EU team are out. Great stuff

:thinking:
If you ask me, depiste being a strong team, I think their success lies heavily in wheter current meta fits them or not.
Snitch can try as hard as he can to be the renown hyper carry as sCsC or XingC (Sadly no longer in HotS), but for me Mene with his Mages was always their most dangerous asset. Currently the meta does not favor Mages that much, yet some team still find success with some of them. Weirdly enough, Dignitas does not play to strengths of their players and just goes for meta drafts no matter what, putting one of the huge playmakers on passive secondary roles.
On this event, Mene played Falstad, Tassadar, Abathur and Brightwing. Not a single Mage and yet we saw Li-Ming, Chromie and even Gul'dan being picked a lot by other teams.

If feel like Roll20 seems to be subpar when Glaurung is playing a hero he really can't initiate the fight with. They seem weak when he plays Brightwing, because he is their playcaller. Being a play caller and stuck on a hero who can't start a fight just feels bad.

Tbh I feel like Team Freedom put up more of a fight than Team Expert did vs MVP Black.
