The ultra rare is going to be an Immortal Arcana.

I hope Valve really reconsidered the massive particle effects these immortals are getting. I mean they look fantastic but the clutter is getting ridiculous. That powershot effect is massive in comparison to the normal one.

If I were new to this game I'd have a hard time associating the visual effects to the corresponding ability with how much variety there is, and it's just going to get worse. A "display default effects/equipment" should be an option at least.

purge: i think troll has the same problem as PA where he has decent dmg and lifesteal but he gets controlled and nuked down ......... but his high armor solves it now

??
 
Not even NA predictions are safe? Oh c'mon now.

e:
Wow these F5 guys...
Morph no buyback even? What? Sure did a lot of good do take double raxes while everyone in your team dies and buys back huh.

Secret probably benefits a lot from playing so many games in the qualifiers. Good game from them. Letting Artour carry most the time seems to have worked.

Also gg COL

People called Romanes they go the house?
yeah that was some dumb shit. why not just pick something smart and secure the TI spot

To be fair, I suppose Troll helps secure phoenix ult via whirling axes miss chance.

Someone pointed out in chat that it also prevents a troll counter pick, but I don't think COL would have picked it already having a core LD.

EG did get outplayed across the board though, like the EG tri-lane feeding fear solo to the batrider, and Sumail dying 2 or 3 times mid to Earth Spirit ganks.

So the NA top 3 are quality playoff teams while the EU ones are a team with 3 north americans, open qualifier and a team that hasnt accomplished anything and people say NA is weak...

So does that seal 1st place for COL?

Did they already win? If they win this, I think it does, unless Valve will flat out not let Head to Head decide the winner of a bracket. Even if Complexity Wins this, there will be 2 team that are 5-1.

If you say Secret are 3 NA players you also need to stipulate that DC is only one NA player and Col has only 2. They are also majority EU.

If Col has to play winner of EG v DC it is unfair to them because they won against both already in the round robin. I don't know if they will beat them again tbh.

No, they'll have to face the winner of EG vs DC since there'll be a tie either way.

Hmmm, I swore that LiquidDota said that two-team ties were decided on head-to-head, which COL would win both. Can't find that now so maybe it was a mistake.

That might be true but in the EU RQ, Secret lost to both F5 and Escape but still played in the 3 way tie.

Yeah, same with SEA. And that makes some sense with three teams. Seems kind of silly not to use h2h with two teams, though. Oh well, more Dota for me.
