I hope they aren't the first team out, EE needs to rise up before he can fall even more spectacularly
its the punishment for dismantling a team that won a major because he wanted to play with Arteezy
I kinda want a Sunsfan Fan

The secret is out!!!
They have been playing sloppy, EE along with RTZ make some questionable plays that jeopardizes the team integrity, their drafting hasn't been particularly great, they deserve to get clowned like this. Also fuck those two I mentioned for destroying successful teams.

People called Romanes they go the house?
Anyone know of a reason why not all of the games are available on the client-side 'watch/view' list?
I know there's definitely games missing from both yesterday and today.

Is that the guy with the ill fitting suit? His segments have been brutal during the whole tournament. :/

Apparently the higher ups think that this man appeals to the 12-22 male demographic
Probably does, but man, I agree, he should get a suit that's tailored.
Valve has to be paying him enough to be able to afford it I hope.
Slacks is fine on the more laid-back shows at the other tournaments, where it feels like a public-access show where people are just goofing around because who cares, nobody is watching.
I don't think he translates to this tournament's environment so well.

Where can I read play by play commentary?
I'm at work now so I can't watch.

Did Secret just straight up forget how to play DotA???
They're getting Sunsfanned.

How do you account for their bad play against Ehome and a seriously underperforming Fnatic? EE looked completely lost in the 2 games I watched, and their drafts that didn't include Huskar have been all over the place.
They looked good on day 1 and have just completely fallen apart on Day 2. No idea what the fuck has happened in the past 24hrs.
If they win all of their matches tomorrow, I think they should still make the winners bracket, But that's a big big big fucking effort.

They have literally only won games where they had Huskar. Is this like Secret during Frankfurt where they have literally 1 plan and can't execute anything else? But it's not just their drafts, they are playing notably worse, especially EE.
Fun Facts so far in the Group Stage: Slark is 3-8 so far, Enchantress is 3-9, ET is 16-5, Kunkka is 12-4, Phoenix is 0-4. The hero with the most picks who hasn't lost is PA at 3-0. Heroes that have been banned but not picked are Meepo, Omni, and Necro. Ursa, Chen, and Bristleback all have 80%+ win rates with at least 5 picks (Ursa is 7-1 in fact).
Who knows. Probably just tunnel vision at this point and all of them are tilting, especially EE.
Can't be easy to have to play 3 BO 2 series after you got wrecked in your first one.

What is this draft from secret?
They have no lategame outside of Void unless Mirana gets way big, or WD gets completely ignored (which won't happen, with so much cc on DC)
I don't see this ending well given their recent level of play.

Well, Mirana is a completely standard carry at this point that goes into lategame just fine, even if she is no hard carry per se.

EE is tilting harder than an Italian cruise ship and rtz is just along for the ride
