Will have to see what the commentators thought about the riskiness of the PL pick after the game.

It certainly does feel like an odd choice.

hope ppd rips him a new one, baffling choice

 

[Moppeh]

Just burn this team down and start anew with Sumail and Universe. Being an EG fan, regardless of game, is always like this.

Keep zai too.

Bring back ppd as your 5 and pickup Reso as your 1.

Bam! Best team ever.

He probably won't though, right? Or has ppd been critical of EG before?

 

[Drkirby]

Wyvern is doing nothing.

 

[aeolist]

i feel like i've seen EG lose like 5 fights from that exact position in this tournament

 

[StrongArmSteady]

MY BOY SHARTOUR! FeelsAmazingMan

[Zia]

EG (Cr1t/Arteezy) look(s) dreadful.

 

[Metroidvania]

Yeeeeeep.

Sidenote, Uni has, aside from a few stuns, done so very little on Mirana.

Only one or two moonlight shadows that succeeded this whole game.

 

[Shorty11857]

Empire getting Resolution as a stand in for TI was so big, he's such a great player

Really putting himself in the shop window for next season

 

[Chris R]

So, which team does Sh1t end up on after he gets kicked?

 

[ScribbleD]

Keep zai too.

Yeah. I was being too hard on Zai for having a rough game.

 

[aeolist]

they're lacking in vision and setup so hitting arrows just isn't happening often in this game

he's doing as well as could be expected on mirana

they lost this one thanks to the draft and never being able to counter empire's vision

 

[Metroidvania]

Oh yeah, not saying it's his fault, but it just doesn't even fit with the team - I get that the thought was that SK and WW would be enough initiation/counter-cc to save PL, but other than the stuns, Mira only really gives early damage with aghs, but Uni didn't go that route.

 

[Syder]

Where's your "USA!" chants now?

I'd be very surprised if Reso doesn't get that phonecall from Puppey that he's always wanted, what with Secret going out early yet again. Navi no doubt want him but I can't imagine why he would want to go there as there are much better options for him.

 

[Chris R]

In the dumpster, next to EG

the magic damage build isn't apparently viable anymore so he couldn't go aghs, cr1t seems to like her just for the ult and right click build

 

[StrongArmSteady]

2 EZ 4 SHARTEEZY

 

[xuchu]

Pedurrrrr

 

[Drkirby]

Crit is just no replacement for PPD.

 

[aeolist]

i dunno what butterfly is supposed to do for pl, the magic damage will still rip him apart and even if he misses a few times sven can still destroy him

 

[Guru-Guru]

This is giving me blue balls

 

[Sigismundo]

Yeah, Reso is gonna be very highly in demand post TI7. He deserves it to be honest.

 

[Metroidvania]

Oh, really? Huh.

That seems....unwise versus a ember+bat+ES lineup - Mira tends to pop.

Also, lol @ Tobey stumbling after saying 'ass'.

edit: Who needs Vision?

EG don't need no vision.

 

[Cvie]

this shadowblade ES is destroying EG

 

[bbd23]

did eg pick pl before or after the sven pick

 

[aeolist]

rtz can't even stick on ancient apparition and kill him

just fucking call it already

 

[shira]

The psychological damage of continuing this game lul

 

[Eleuin]

Crit may be seen as the better player but he's not even close to ppd as a captain/drafter

 

[Qvoth]

yeah this game's done
wyvern and pl are bad picks this game
AA ulti blast basically nullifies wyvern's embrace, and works well against pl
mirana's only consistent way to hit arrow is by embrace, sk's stun into mirana arrow isn't as easy to pull off
the draft is just not cohesive enough

 

[Fuchsdh]

 

[Chris R]

WW did nothing all game, ugh

If the draft is similar next game I expect EG to GG out at like 35 mins.

 

[StrongArmSteady]

ITS A DISASTAH!

 

[xuchu]

GG what a shit draft

 

[Metroidvania]

0/10 and 0/12 supports on EG.

Someone needs to slap the shit out of Cr1t for that draft, and maybe Arteezy for his performance nonetheless.

 

[Qvoth]

yep there's the gg
eg got DESTROYED here
edit: resolution is looking AMAZING, he's the standout carry player so far, maybe best pos 1 in the game currently?

 

[Cels]

i only watched the last 30 min of the game but crit wyvern was completely useless or was it just me

 

[mysteriousmage09]

Such garbage from EG. Secret created the mountain of garbage and EG just set it on fire. What a way to end the night.

 

[ScribbleD]

That force staff on the curse target was such an unnecessary, but swag, play.

 

[scarybore]

Holy shit, what a disciplined game from Empire. Big upset just taking a game from EG considering they are using a stand in, even if it is a great one.

 

[Sgt.Pepper]

This shaker was really good.

 

[shira]

i only watched the last 30 min of the game but crit wyvern was completely useless or was it just me

Lul ppd is going to kick him himself

 

[Big-E]

Why do I not play my gold Resolution card?

 

[Monochromaticx]

Did eg first pick pl??? Empire had 3 counters to it
P.s. Tobi shouting about everything is annoying

 

[Metroidvania]

Man, Arteezy looks absolutely shattered.

 

[Proelite]

Empire vs Liquid can hopefully be a competitive series.

 

[aeolist]

did eg pick pl before or after the sven pick

before, but after shaker

 

[fr0st]

did eg pick pl before or after the sven pick

Before

 

[StrongArmSteady]

EG LOOKING TRIGGERED

4th, I think ES was picked first.
