LiQuid!

Started 10-0-10 on Oracle but our team didn't scale and Axe won them a bunch of mid game teamfights that flipped what I thought was going to be a sure win.

Oracle win will happen some day. He seems like a good hero, but I don't really see his worth in the late game/going high ground other than just giving one of the carries and extra life. Not much utility.
 
EG with a really good start and they still just get absolutely annihilated. The second or third strongest team in the tournament and they just look like complete amateurs next to Secret.

Secret are just so fucking good, even when EG were ahead 11-4 you felt Secret would win. Don't even know how you ban against them, they are always able to get heroes they are comfortable on.

One day I realized that sadness is just another word for not enough coffee.
So, like, is Secret the strongest team now? Even if a team might have better singular players, they still have to deal with the zai/s4/RTZ merry go around. Those 3 players are just so versatile it's impossible to really pressure them with picks and bans.

yes pls i rly miss ti3 alch, +25 base strength ez.
How about he gets a bunch of bonus health but the max diminishes over time and at the end he's like minus x str/health until the ult is off cd

Also is bg's logo supposed to look like the logo of an anime? Looks familiar...

Third I think VG/BG is like the EG/Secret of the East.

that feeling when a four stack incessant flames you, despite making you solo support and keeping wards out of stock for 45 minutes. I need to learn to stop buying wards for idiots who dont use them.

face meet desk. FUCK sunday night dota.

Secret has been the strongest team since the end of August. Other than a couple losses to EG and some other teams (I don't remember) during october and November, they have been practically undefeated with a 72-1-12 record (if my basic arithmetic is correct) [http://www.gosugamers.net/dota2/teams/8954-team-secret]. Not counting the tied game its about an 85% winrate. Of course they didn't win ESL One, Starladder, or The Summit 2 which shows that they can still be defeated, but EG last year didn't win everything either.

I'd argue VG was definitely stronger during Summit 2. Seems Secret is back at number 1 now, though.
