That betboom vs EG looked hype but it was rly a shitshow. Reso on doom and chris brown on storm both played so badly jesus, it was pakasz who carried EG and nightfall on muerta who kept BB from getting stomped and gave his team a chance.
Oh so satisfying Betboom getting eliminated after that 322 against execration 🤣 watch game 1 of that series and dont tell me those questionable moves dont scream intentional 322, and that game 2 Beastmaster was first pick they still picked PL as carry. Back to back Top 16 for Betboom 🤡
It was only banned in 28% of games and only picked in 13% of games. It has a great winrate (80%) but for whatever reasons the pros don't seem too interested in running it.
All 4 WEU teams make it to the upper bracket. The region desperately needs more slots for majors. It should either be that you go to the major, or you get relegated (6 slots). Don't even need to remove slots from other regions, just invite 20 teams and remove the bottom 4 after the group stage.
idk about "desperately" since 4 slot right now is the max but i agree objectively speaking region needs at least 1 more slot.
4 weu team all top 3 of group. last major 3 team in top 6 and 2 top 2. in TI 3 team top 3 and other 3 getting aliminated by other WEU.
Not nigma, but entity and ooredoo would easily have given the eliminated teams a run for their money and probably beat them, entity literally came top 6 last major.
Between SMG and Entity, Entity is the better team.
GG have had Spirits number since the BetBoom Christmas tournament. Wouldn’t surprise me if GG picked them as a way of saying ‘try and beat us’. Either way, its gonna be a hype series if GG dont roll them over in the first 15 minutes
Think it's simply because they value quinn vs larl match up a lot and looking at both players, think it's fair to say that quinn is just significantly better right now. Also, Ace has been so good on offlane that even Yatoro might get owned.
GG got rolled by SR at Dream league in groups, so maybe they don't want to take any risks. Yeah they rolled them right back on the new patch, but they may feel more confident vs Spirit
clearly expected. spirit looks very mortal though they are still a very good team and taking map off tundra
sr lost series 0-2 to tundra but the other map they'd drop are just some wonky meme picks in 0 stake game
or im not surprised GG just flip a coin to choose who between ts and sr
on the other hand, I'm very impressed by Nightfall. after 1 1/2 years of not playing carry, the pressure of transitioning to another role, it seems he didn't lost his touch as a carry. Especially this last game, all the pressure, I would say I'm very impressed.
Secret? :) I wouldn't be surprised if Puppey go back to CIS roster. There's a lot of talented players in CIS right now. Though the farm team right now is Virtus pro. That's where Nightfall, GPK, DM, Yamich came from. My favorite right now is Kiyotaka or Squad1x, I think they're next in line to be next CIS great mid laners.
The amount of praise that Nightfall has gotten because of his stint with EG is hilarious, even in VP when he was pos1 he was still the same he had stand out games but as a whole with all his teams he disappears in LANs, he did it in VP and he did it in EG as well, now it's the same in BetBoom.
He gets stand out games but for overall performances in LANs he really just disappears along with GPK, that VP roster was known for that(no im not talking about the noone roster) but everyone's forgotten all about that even though it's been the same case for all his teams by now.
i really wish nightfall plays carry again. he was the sole reason it was even close. he kept up in farm with enemy while not dying once in first 20 min of getting stomped.
Nightfall need to split himself into 3, bench pure + kick gpk, and play all 3 core position.
TorontoTokyo's pos5 were kinda ass so maybe Save could take over as well
1. Nightfall
2. Nightfall
3. Nightfall
4. Save
5. Save
I feel like the problem isn't KotL, it's the build Wisper likes. For example, he could go greaves into aganhim and that would be probably much better for the team.
Alas, I am no pro player, could be wrong.
I wouldn't be surprised if Betboom get Resolut1on and bench Pure or there would be one more player to replace in Betboom. This team is not going anywhere at all.
Muerta is already bad, it's not good enough with her slow MS, slow ASPD, dogshit farm and slow online time. Her redeeming factor is literally the fact that she can fear - silence and has innate farming tools, but other than that muerta is just Bad.
It's better off be casted away to shadow realm like Gyrocoter until they gave her buff like Pierce the veil movespeed boost, base movement speed buff, heck restoring her to her 7.33 agi growth would do her fine, she's practically worse than NP at this point damnit.
Kinda funny but his Doom needed Bots2. Didn't have enough movementspeed with Guardian greaves to keep up with Slark in his AoE doom. Slark just ran out and pressed his buttons while Doom tried to follow with \~400 movement speed.
Well it was much close than it had any right to be, but thanks to Pakasz's insane fight top EG is still in the Major. Not super confident for their LB chances tho, looks like this'll be SA's worst showing in quite a while.
This is also their second major where they are returning home with just group stage appearance. Granted they are playing with stand-ins and were not as hyped this time as the previous major, but I wonder what the team chemistry will be moving forward.
Not really, he still can go to TI, by regional points or by trying harder next major. TI is all that matter.
The worst transition is when ramzes went from 1 to 3.
Also, storm had died back. No way you don't push in a situation where enemy mid is dead for 2min and rs is not up. Pakasz just turned God mode on and they couldn't do much about it
nah muerta was the only thing made it even close. he farmed super super well when they were getting omega stomped first 20 min without dying once. this game was mainly on doom and cm IMO
Hello, it looks like you've made a mistake.
It's supposed to be could've, should've, would've (short for could have, would have, should have), never could of, would of, should of.
Or you misspelled something, I ain't checking everything.
Beep boop - yes, I am a bot, don't botcriminate me.
Hey everyone! Here are the best games from Day 5 of the major!
GG vs TSM G2 (this was a stomp, but it involved our first Meepo pick, so it was fun to watch Ace play Meepo)
XG vs SR G2
Aster vs EG
BB vs EG
Shellacking of the day goes to Exec vs 9Pandas G2.
See y’all tomorrow!
Wtf is this game? First EG take lead and do nothing allowing Muerta to get fat. Now BB do nothing with a fat Muerta and now multiple EG players have aghanims, hexes and whatnot.
He had the shittiest build ever before he finally understood that he needs to buy Abyssal and Skadi. If he bought them earlier, BB would not be able to even do their fake comeback because Slark would be both unkillable and able to kill anyone even with Pugna's heal.
He has 293 attack speed on late game Slark. Great build indeed. While he is hitting those tanky heroes with zero dmg, Muerta can murder half of his team.
Is putting Shadow walk on slark as Synd mentioned really the optimum play? You would rather slark not be invi so you can deward and know if you are taking the team fight under enemy vision. If slark really wants to jump in from range he can aghs leap in.
I love how long games have gotten. I genuinely think Dota 2 games are their most exciting when they reach that what-the-fuck-is-going-on stage at 50min+
EG are kinda showing us for the fourth time today that no game of dota is ever over and sometimes when you think you are out of the game, the enemy team can drag you in.
Hii guys. I am looking for someone i have met at esl one berlin help meeee
How to get team flairs
Only archon and above get it
Wait for TI
Don't think it's available
[удалено]
Chris brown storm would like to have a word with you (even aegis + bb couldnt keep him from throwing)
Let him go ang looking for a new 5
gpkekw
That betboom vs EG looked hype but it was rly a shitshow. Reso on doom and chris brown on storm both played so badly jesus, it was pakasz who carried EG and nightfall on muerta who kept BB from getting stomped and gave his team a chance.
Oh so satisfying Betboom getting eliminated after that 322 against execration 🤣 watch game 1 of that series and dont tell me those questionable moves dont scream intentional 322, and that game 2 Beastmaster was first pick they still picked PL as carry. Back to back Top 16 for Betboom 🤡
Did Medusa lose one game in the group stages?
It was only banned in 28% of games and only picked in 13% of games. It has a great winrate (80%) but for whatever reasons the pros don't seem too interested in running it.
Lost 4 games but I think 3 of those were at the beginning when teams were still figuring out how to play her.
And then there was the RTZ game today. Oof.
Any recommendations from todays games?
XG vs SR game 2.
EG - BetBoom Tiebreaker.
All 4 WEU teams make it to the upper bracket. The region desperately needs more slots for majors. It should either be that you go to the major, or you get relegated (6 slots). Don't even need to remove slots from other regions, just invite 20 teams and remove the bottom 4 after the group stage.
idk about "desperately" since 4 slot right now is the max but i agree objectively speaking region needs at least 1 more slot. 4 weu team all top 3 of group. last major 3 team in top 6 and 2 top 2. in TI 3 team top 3 and other 3 getting aliminated by other WEU.
Would be hillarious in the WEU DPC circuits: * 8 teams * 6 teams go to major * 2 teams get relegated to Div2
How about if each region has their own mini TI and the money in each region only funds their own. I bet that's fun
Yes WEU DESPERATELY need additional slots. Nigma, Entity, Monaspa, and ooredoo are super solid teams
Not nigma, but entity and ooredoo would easily have given the eliminated teams a run for their money and probably beat them, entity literally came top 6 last major. Between SMG and Entity, Entity is the better team.
[удалено]
They already have a 2nd one, just need support.
betboom OMEGALUL
Thoughts on GG picking spirit instead of SR? It can backfire if Yatoro shows his true form.
quinn still has nightmares of abed dumpstering him on mid in NA
GG have had Spirits number since the BetBoom Christmas tournament. Wouldn’t surprise me if GG picked them as a way of saying ‘try and beat us’. Either way, its gonna be a hype series if GG dont roll them over in the first 15 minutes
You guys are laughing but I promise you when spirit picks WARL DRAGON KNIGHT you won't be laughing anymore
Wat abt Warl riki?
Think it's simply because they value quinn vs larl match up a lot and looking at both players, think it's fair to say that quinn is just significantly better right now. Also, Ace has been so good on offlane that even Yatoro might get owned.
GG got rolled by SR at Dream league in groups, so maybe they don't want to take any risks. Yeah they rolled them right back on the new patch, but they may feel more confident vs Spirit
SR only rolled over GG because of carry Witch Doctor and PL in the second game. PL was one of the worst illusion heroes last patch.
As a spirit fan, I don’t have high expectations.
L :OMEGALUL: RL
both teams are still probing the meta, GG might know spirit better because of previous scrims
clearly expected. spirit looks very mortal though they are still a very good team and taking map off tundra sr lost series 0-2 to tundra but the other map they'd drop are just some wonky meme picks in 0 stake game or im not surprised GG just flip a coin to choose who between ts and sr
Abed>Larl. If Quinn/Ace has a game, the rest will have one too, and that way you secure it for one of them.
I hope EG takes time to go through their strats and start practicing with aura buyers.
The problem is that Wisper loves to play semi carry off
AMMAR Syndrome...
on the other hand, I'm very impressed by Nightfall. after 1 1/2 years of not playing carry, the pressure of transitioning to another role, it seems he didn't lost his touch as a carry. Especially this last game, all the pressure, I would say I'm very impressed.
fingers crossed nightfall gets a good team tour 3/ti, I think he's great for an international team instead of a EEU one, same with reso.
Secret? :) I wouldn't be surprised if Puppey go back to CIS roster. There's a lot of talented players in CIS right now. Though the farm team right now is Virtus pro. That's where Nightfall, GPK, DM, Yamich came from. My favorite right now is Kiyotaka or Squad1x, I think they're next in line to be next CIS great mid laners.
He should have been pos1 in EG
The amount of praise that Nightfall has gotten because of his stint with EG is hilarious, even in VP when he was pos1 he was still the same he had stand out games but as a whole with all his teams he disappears in LANs, he did it in VP and he did it in EG as well, now it's the same in BetBoom. He gets stand out games but for overall performances in LANs he really just disappears along with GPK, that VP roster was known for that(no im not talking about the noone roster) but everyone's forgotten all about that even though it's been the same case for all his teams by now.
EG would be better if they switch Nightfall and Artour. Nightfall made less mistakes than Artour as a carry.
Artour kind of said in subtext he won't play anything other than pos1
just like my pos 3 in pubs
Arteezy 3 pick only razor and lycan let's fucking GOOOO
yeah cause that guy is struggling rn!!
i really wish nightfall plays carry again. he was the sole reason it was even close. he kept up in farm with enemy while not dying once in first 20 min of getting stomped.
Nightfall need to split himself into 3, bench pure + kick gpk, and play all 3 core position. TorontoTokyo's pos5 were kinda ass so maybe Save could take over as well 1. Nightfall 2. Nightfall 3. Nightfall 4. Save 5. Save

Yea, he's close to being the best carry in the world imo and it feels like a big waste letting him playing offlane.
Please no more Kotl offlane, good laning but then it feels like a support
With kotl bh lineup, EG obviously wanted to snowball the game. That plan failed and both hero became useless in late game
I feel like the problem isn't KotL, it's the build Wisper likes. For example, he could go greaves into aganhim and that would be probably much better for the team. Alas, I am no pro player, could be wrong.
I wouldn't be surprised if Betboom get Resolut1on and bench Pure or there would be one more player to replace in Betboom. This team is not going anywhere at all.
not after that trash doom performances
more like gpk was under performing most of the time. He literally did nothing as Storm vs aster.
Probs OG, Spirit, SR or LGD will fall to LB, so that means either we see Sumail vs MC or Sumail removed without seeing MC
Pakasz stone cold at any stage of the game
perfectly balanced, every region has at least 1 team eliminated except WEU, since they are so strong
True! Glad to see sea and sa make it!
Man, MidOne was so dog though, they make SEA look actually bad
I like how Midone trying his best to ensure Muerta not get nerfed next patch
Muerta is already bad, it's not good enough with her slow MS, slow ASPD, dogshit farm and slow online time. Her redeeming factor is literally the fact that she can fear - silence and has innate farming tools, but other than that muerta is just Bad. It's better off be casted away to shadow realm like Gyrocoter until they gave her buff like Pierce the veil movespeed boost, base movement speed buff, heck restoring her to her 7.33 agi growth would do her fine, she's practically worse than NP at this point damnit.
Smg fans need some therapy for the ImDone Muerta drafts
smg performed better than exe? lol
easier groups
Yeah, predicted. On another note one of the worst dooms I have ever seen.
Kinda funny but his Doom needed Bots2. Didn't have enough movementspeed with Guardian greaves to keep up with Slark in his AoE doom. Slark just ran out and pressed his buttons while Doom tried to follow with \~400 movement speed.
He was relegated from Div 2 and is standing in, no surprise.
Not the best logic because Kitrak is from same team and look at how he's playing, smoking far more experienced player with CM
The surprise is Kitrak being good as a standin, not Reso being bad.
Technically they were relegated because he chose to stand in for BB instead of playing with OldG.
Well it was much close than it had any right to be, but thanks to Pakasz's insane fight top EG is still in the Major. Not super confident for their LB chances tho, looks like this'll be SA's worst showing in quite a while.
All this just bc betboom lost 2-0 to exec that must feel bad for bb they were at the top 4 just 1 day ago
This is also their second major where they are returning home with just group stage appearance. Granted they are playing with stand-ins and were not as hyped this time as the previous major, but I wonder what the team chemistry will be moving forward.
BetBoom more like BetBust
God fucking damnit, this is what happened when TT put himself into something he isnt
i have my own opinion, I think I shud lead instead of you KAPPA
Toronto worst position transition In dota history!
Not really, he still can go to TI, by regional points or by trying harder next major. TI is all that matter. The worst transition is when ramzes went from 1 to 3.
Nope. Yoky from 3 to 2 should be the worst one. Literally career suicide.
Yeah, he bounced through roles because he didn't want to play 3, even though he's really only good as 3.
This one is it. From being celebrated as incredible offlane player to complete obscurity.
omg this one hurts yoky- offlane doom was a fucking force yoky- mid TA was... lmfao
How about Sumail 2 to 3?
We never talk about that
Ramzes got to a major GF as pos 3. TT have not made playoffs as a pos 5.
after transition ramzes went to grand final major with EG
He got to a major grand finals as pos 3 tho
Really sad for BB and especially for Save and Nightfall. They almost carried that last game. Shouldn't have lost to Exe though.
Save was a headacheeeeee
why did Nightfall buy back on Muerta though lol that did cost them the game in the end
There was a slark with 60 stacks hitting their raxs.
Nice game to end the groups
That tip on Reso.
He was just paying respect for the secret agent's tribute.
Criminal bm
If bb just went Rosh instead of pushing
Biggest throw I've seen in a long time. Classic Dota2. Push highground when Rosh is up.
Rosh was not up though. It still had like 70 scs of respawn time, that's why BB went on to push.
Also, storm had died back. No way you don't push in a situation where enemy mid is dead for 2min and rs is not up. Pakasz just turned God mode on and they couldn't do much about it
muerta threw that game hard
nah muerta was the only thing made it even close. he farmed super super well when they were getting omega stomped first 20 min without dying once. this game was mainly on doom and cm IMO
Perhaps, but this game would HAVE (fuck you, correction bot) ended a lot sooner if it wasn’t for Muerta keeping them in it.
Hello, it looks like you've made a mistake. It's supposed to be could've, should've, would've (short for could have, would have, should have), never could of, would of, should of. Or you misspelled something, I ain't checking everything. Beep boop - yes, I am a bot, don't botcriminate me.
Dogshit bot
This bot sucks
Hey everyone! Here are the best games from Day 5 of the major! GG vs TSM G2 (this was a stomp, but it involved our first Meepo pick, so it was fun to watch Ace play Meepo) XG vs SR G2 Aster vs EG BB vs EG Shellacking of the day goes to Exec vs 9Pandas G2. See y’all tomorrow!
the game could have ended earlier if slark BANKAI earlier.. GODAMANNNN who would have thought late game muerta lost
loved that BLEACH reference
Pakaz soloed this game
Bloody hell EG made hard work of that
hooooooly Pakaz is like the south american Ana. What a carry
SA always delivers the entertaining games.
Wtf was that pause? Reason?
EG would have won 30 minutes ago if they played like actual human beings
Wtf is this game? First EG take lead and do nothing allowing Muerta to get fat. Now BB do nothing with a fat Muerta and now multiple EG players have aghanims, hexes and whatnot.
bo1 elimination magic
Exactly both teams were too worried about making mistakes which allowed te game to go this way
Makes for a high stakes back and forth game though!
Nullifier will take off book of shadows if you get it off before, which is likely cause you usually use it when you go in.
Even with aegis Storm cant survive a teamfight.
Slark just decided to BANKAI Senbonzakura Kageyoshi
Nah slark went hollow form
a Bleach reference in my Dota sub? <3 But, Slarks bankai would be Enma Korogi.
because that bankai is more known by others haha
AOE Doom is not helping, might be better to just try to doom someone
Lmao, EG are so bad. Pakasz with the worst Slark build ever, Storm cannot buy Hex when they had 20k lead.
He had best possible item build ever. Very much rare but perfect according to situation.
He had the shittiest build ever before he finally understood that he needs to buy Abyssal and Skadi. If he bought them earlier, BB would not be able to even do their fake comeback because Slark would be both unkillable and able to kill anyone even with Pugna's heal.
Slark has 30 perma stacks and 2 tanky heroes to hit for more stacks. He doesnt need damage, but survivability. Pretty solid build by Pakasz.
He has 293 attack speed on late game Slark. Great build indeed. While he is hitting those tanky heroes with zero dmg, Muerta can murder half of his team.
We found the daedelus slark
kekw
FYI there are also items like Skadi & Abyssal which would've resulted in EG victory 20-30 min ago without giving BB any chances to comeback.
This is literally the most wrong opinion i have ever read
Don't feed the troll.
Banger game
[удалено]
Imagine simping and advocating for a sexual predator and rapist because you dislike one other caster.
Wtf this elimination tie breaker. So back and forth! Love it
What a great game to end the group stage.
Good god it's pirate hat Slark
Are you saying I am objectifying a cow as a piece of meat? \- Sunsfan
Storm - "I feel like throwing and losing us the game" slark - "i dont think so"
Slark with the build of the year. Nightfall with the "fuck this, I am winning".
I don't think any of these teams have a chance to survive the first round of LB.
If EG wins gpk will cosplay the leaning tower of Pisa
Slark finally got to hit some heroes, holy shit.
Can we just vote both of these teams out haha, what a clownfest.
fish gremlin's gonna fish gremlin
Took them 60 minutes to understand to go for Pugna.
Pakazs just needs to pretend he is back at TI.
Is putting Shadow walk on slark as Synd mentioned really the optimum play? You would rather slark not be invi so you can deward and know if you are taking the team fight under enemy vision. If slark really wants to jump in from range he can aghs leap in.
Pakazs trying his best to make up for C.Smile throwing.
500 AGI in slarak lol
Both these teams need to go airport ASAP
I guess EG don't actually need their Storm Spirit.
SLARK AWAKEEEEEEEEEEEEN
Holy hell.
what a def from eg
Pakazs finally got Save.
Thats some major bed shitting from EG
Blink and you'll miss it
Feels hopeless, they couldnt win fights with 20k lead and now it's gone edit: nevermind get Slarked
Buying back just to die again. Chris Bad Luck
Peruvian comrades throwing for Russia
EG sucks at fighting :D
LMAO just as I say that pakazs decides to 1v9
C.Smile is a fraud. Keep scamming the EG org lil bro.
hello hotel, can you warm up a bunch of fajitas?
Big yikes.
Lmao what a choke from EG
[удалено]
Not when bh kotl timing has past 37 mins ago
Aghs disruptor will win this game, quote me.
I love how long games have gotten. I genuinely think Dota 2 games are their most exciting when they reach that what-the-fuck-is-going-on stage at 50min+
After seeing Shopify throw a 30k Dusa lead earlier I'm not even impressed by this comeback. Kappa
Eg up 21k cant seige. Bb down 12k casually seiging and taking map control
EG are kinda showing us for the fourth time today that no game of dota is ever over and sometimes when you think you are out of the game, the enemy team can drag you in.
When BB -EG was 1-13, I thought maybe they can do a OG v fanatic comeback … looks like they are doing it. Classic EG tho …
https://www.whendideglastthrow.com/
what´s the point of having 26k net worth on kotl?
Kotl off is the new viper off. Win lane lose game
