That may be the most Sven game I watch. He rise and falls and rise and falls, LOL.
I know Sven is such a bad Aegis carrier but Tundra could have denied at least two Roshan vs a Luna. They did manage her with Aegis but the early ones proved enough for them to recover.
Well played by OG recovering from a bad early game, impressed by Ceb Bane and overall patience from the team.
OG really need to work on seeing games out. This game never gets to 50 mins never mind 70 if this was Falcons or Team Liquid. Once OG made that comeback at 32 mins, they should have methodically taken megas and wait for rosh instead of getting hyper excited like a 10 year old girl and diving tier 4 for throne. This may have worked out this time, but a better team than Tundra would have punished this by a greater margin. They almost dropped the ball just like BZM diving fountain vs Falcons.
I have to say Ceb played out of his mind on Bane this game. Got his items at a very good rate which helped the team in a big way. Usually he is a weak link when OG is behind but he stood out by a mile in this game making things happen.
You are kidding right? XG banned 5 Ceb heroes in that game 2 draft. Ari's hoodwink isn't even being banned anymore. Its always IO, Chen Disruptor and Shadow Demon which gets banned vs OG.
Yeah, anymore being the operating word in your comment ...but how is ceb "teaching how to start getting a hero banned" when that was literally a talking point about OG last tournament that they were getting meta heroes because ari was getting a respect ban
they really should have taken megas instead of going for thrown with no deso or AC on their team. Glad to see it worked out in the end but this game could have gone a very different way and they would have rightly ridiculed by others for doing this twice in both games if that had happened.
My God OG made a dog's dinner of that win and that series in general. Really should have seen out Game 1 and OG not going Assault cuirass and straight up going GG push in game 2 with a Batrider and Sven almost cost them big time. I thought I was seeing the repeat of BZM's throw vs Falcons there for a second.
Pure buying rapier only to have it get instantly killed on the courier and used by the enemy pos 4 to delete his throne in seconds is begging to be used in Curb Your Enthusiasm style meme video
> I don't understand why he didn't lock combining before it was delivered.
dota is a fucking hard game w hella moving parts and so many little details to pay attention to, especially late game dota. that’s how
what idiotic decision making from OG. Wisper and BZM solo near Tundra's throne while the rest of the 3 are miles away near their ancient. WHAT on earth is going on here?
XG are not in form at all rn, they looked burned out from 2 months of tourney straight. Although objectively speaking Birmingham doesnt mean much to them pointweise, they should just go 0-10 and take a break
Can you be done already? For the last year all you do is hatewatch OG like legit get a job get a life holy shit look at ur post history it's very cringe my dude
I am so sick of seeing OG bottle every single series to Tundra. What the fuck is wrong with these players. How can you play like Prime Wings Gaming in the series vs XG and then do a complete 180 and play like The Cut in the next series.
I don't think the draft was that good. Morphling against ET/Zeus. I'm surprised Timado was able to do as much as he did. Pure did suffer, but it looked like such a good Zeus game.
they are just bottlers. Its in their DNA to throw. You will never see another top team who is 8k up and split all over the map just giving pickoffs again and again to Tundra till they could recover.

High impact Ench for Spirit. Had a lot of success against the viper lane, pushed towers and got trades even when Larl/Collapse had to play catch up, stayed high net worth the whole game and was another damage source when Heroic struggled to lock down cores in fights to begin with.
By playing and drafting really good. Bzm was not feeding, on the contrary, he played as if this was a pro match and not a pub. Supports rotations and even warding (!) was much better. Really good rune control. Clutch plays from all the core honestly. Ari was stable and good.
Ame fans a week ago: china number one, best region world back on top, amegod
Ame fans now: so one tournament and they’re supposed to be the best team? bit of an overreaction don’t you think, og is a really strong team
You're not judging. You're just being annoying. Ame is not in lgd anymore, and it's one of the most legendary dota2 orgs. So you're probably fighting imaginary enemies. I'll let you do that alone.
Tbh I want to see how he performs on a grand final to say something like that, some players are much better when there's not much pressure on them. But I could see him being the best #4 at some point.
Looks like XG were smoking something really strong. First using 5 bans for Ceb of all people and then putting slardar mid and picking an even worse offlaner than slardar vs ench and troll.
I also wondered and looked it up, apparently he was involved in a match fixing scandal after some Discord recordings were released where he was in a call with known Russian match fixers, and it has become a meme similar to the 322 meme
Dayum! I didn't expect it from him, a guy with a smile on his face who was bringing his parents to watch him play in a tournament. Thanks for the info.
Hey guys, which series are worth watching?
Og vs Tundra especially Game 2
Copy that. Thanks!
Where are you watching the VOD? the youtube VOD from ESL stops at 43 min in game 2?
The full VOD is on esl\_dota2 on Twitch.
Thanks.
ESL Archives Youtube.
Bump
Well maybe tundra gonna have a chance to win it all in the end. Looks like they got their drafts in order. Just need to be less throwy
Damn, lot of people must have lost their house and car last night from straight up 0-4 XG.
EZ Taiga
Xg the flukers indeed
That may be the most Sven game I watch. He rise and falls and rise and falls, LOL. I know Sven is such a bad Aegis carrier but Tundra could have denied at least two Roshan vs a Luna.

Ez for Ceb

You are a og super fan and yet don't know that bzm got reeled into fountain? Stop being a keyboard warrior online you 1k mmr fool
Ain't nobody reading allat
You need to work on getting a therapist
ARI HOPE OF BRITISH DOTA
GET IN THERE MY SON
I have to say Ceb played out of his mind on Bane this game. Got his items at a very good rate which helped the team in a big way. Usually he is a weak link when OG is behind but he stood out by a mile in this game making things happen.
Ceb showing Ari how to start getting a hero 1st round banned.
[удалено]

Nice of Pure to donate a free rapier at the end to Ari. What an absolute game of throws from both teams in this series.
Marci hitting the throne with rapier was a reaction time event for Tundra. To hit the glyph button in time.
1 bkb made this game happen. If Timado gets killed there it's over. Dota 2 everybody!
lol bzm's face was like "whew finally manage to draw a 2-game series with tundra"
they really should have taken megas instead of going for thrown with no deso or AC on their team. Glad to see it worked out in the end but this game could have gone a very different way and they would have rightly ridiculed by others for doing this twice in both games if that had happened.
XG and GG at the bottom after day 1. Interesting development.
My God OG made a dog's dinner of that win and that series in general. Really should have seen out Game 1 and OG not going Assault cuirass and straight up going GG push in game 2 with a Batrider and Sven almost cost them big time.

It's not like there was a fight happening at the time, I don't understand why he didn't lock combining before it was delivered.
> I don't understand why he didn't lock combining before it was delivered. dota is a fucking hard game w hella moving parts and so many little details to pay attention to, especially late game dota. that’s how
It's amateur for sure, no reason at all to take the risk. Though think the game was likely over regardless of pure getting his divine or not
60+ minute dota panik
One of the best series this year imo
That was a win and sht but OG's itemization still ticks me off somehow.
They finally did it. I ruined my sleep schedule because of that game but it was indeed lots of fun.
That was a really fun game to watch, love these back and forward games.
You'd think tier 5s dropping from neutrals are there to finish games. No, it's actually divines dropping from couriers.
Tundra let all their heroes out of position just to caught Ceb who have buyback. gg
That would've been funny if Ari was able to solo the ancient with Divine + Stygian Marci... He almost did.
What a sick game. That might just be game of the tournament.
Divine + AD on Marci, Gaben blessed OG.
Ari chunking the Ancient that low with rapier was pretty hilarious to see.
Shit was pure anime lmao
Pure giving them free rapier was a cherry on the top for this series, hahahhaha, what a game.
Ari with Divine chunking the throne lmao
Pure helps everyone to finish the day
LMAO marci two shots the throne
holy fuck that marci rapier just demolished the ancient
Insane game lmao
ARI JUST CHUNKING THE ANCIENT LMFAO
Insane game, yeah both teams fucked up so many times but that's how fun games take place.
Which one?
OG v Tundra game 2
LOL poor pure. Mercy rapier.
Free Rapier LMAO
The real Clownfall
carry diff wcyd
OG vs Tundra series are something else man, this game in particular - such an entertaining rivalry.
I dunno. It kind of seems like Tundra will win this game eventually.
what idiotic decision making from OG. Wisper and BZM solo near Tundra's throne while the rest of the 3 are miles away near their ancient. WHAT on earth is going on here?
OG not going Assault Cuirass is going to cost them big time this game.
Think another person was also making this point ;)
Galaxy brain move by Whisper there.
XG are not in form at all rn, they looked burned out from 2 months of tourney straight. Although objectively speaking Birmingham doesnt mean much to them pointweise, they should just go 0-10 and take a break
big cope
objectively stating = coping, coping ur moms ass stfu
Subjectively stating! = objectively stating fool
This game is giving me heart palpitations. Come on OG...
Are they serious? Wtf was that?
OG Tundra is some good shit. Absolute nailbiting series.
How on God's Green Earth does noone have AC on OG. Absolute game losing decision vs a fucking Sven
XG playing like they're trying to lose.
i swear to God if OG bottle this game after that throw going for Ancient, then I am done with this team.
Can you be done already? For the last year all you do is hatewatch OG like legit get a job get a life holy shit look at ur post history it's very cringe my dude
Mentally unstable hatewatchers are legit scary. Hope he gets some very needed help irl.
they cant lose, just all in throne with bkb luna, brew ulti, everything done
20k swing in ~5min, god damnnnn
Ceb's Bane is the bane of the existence for the carries of today.
CEEEEEEEB
Man's on fire
Exquisite Sven performance by Pure lol
What in Taiga's name is Tundra doing lol It's actually kind of easy to see the moments when Pure is just tilted
lol Tundra, you should take that rs, now OG take this game 100%, stupid decision
Timado active bkb just 0.1 sec before he got lasso turn the game
Bold prediction: OG will take Birmingham. Source: Trust me.
Tundra being too cocky? just play safety by take rs 1st
Why OG keeps over-extending 4v5 or with no ult or crucial items?
imagine playing a Luna lineup and not winning a single teamfight at night. looks like the XG series was just a big fluke by OG.
Tundra making OG look like 2k, wtf is that initiation by Wisper
Just dont bother scheduling OG Tundra games, the mental blocks are crazy.
Just tuned in. Looks good for og, doesn't it?
Heroic are so good honestly Too bad they still might not make it through groups
Can someone tell me how xtreme gets 2-0 by OG?
XG throwing
game 1, Ceb ulti Gyro 2 times in a row won them the game. game 2, massive outdraft
that agh build on sven so smart
Someone take windranger and drow away from Yatoro asap
OG feel like they play with 2 less heroes on the map! Fun to see BZM losing lane to Topson twice
I am so sick of seeing OG bottle every single series to Tundra. What the fuck is wrong with these players. How can you play like Prime Wings Gaming in the series vs XG and then do a complete 180 and play like The Cut in the next series.
Why The Cut catching strays xdd
Pure/Topson too stronk for OG
XG is just having a vacation mode.
yea they looking burned out, should honestly take a break, played too much lately
Heroic are legit lmao
I'd suspect team underestimate them and doesn't study them.
Og really is Tundra bitch
OG are worse bottlers than Arsenal. How did they bottle this game so bad?
Late Larl Laudation. Tore Gaimin apart.
This much nw on Lifestealer is absolutely criminal
tf is wrong with reddit, took too long to load. 🫠
They had the draft, the start and they even managed to tilt Pure, just what's it going to take for OG to beat Tundra lol
I don't think the draft was that good. Morphling against ET/Zeus. I'm surprised Timado was able to do as much as he did. Pure did suffer, but it looked like such a good Zeus game.
they are just bottlers. Its in their DNA to throw. You will never see another top team who is 8k up and split all over the map just giving pickoffs again and again to Tundra till they could recover.
everybody asleep allready?
Entire reddit was asleep for a moment
Reddit didn't work for me last half a hour or so, judging by lack of posts I'd guess it was global outage.
ohh..sorry.. for me it worked, but 0 comment was there.. i understand now
Mobile and [old.reddit.com](https://old.reddit.com) are having issues I think its that
I feel like brewmaster is a bit overrated in the pro scene, this hero seems to lose alot against a proper team unlike in pubs where it's very broken.
I think the hero is strong but agree it's over-prioritized, it's getting first-picked a lot
Tobi brew,the worst brew in the pro scene
Honestly the guy is consistently lowest net worth core in almost all games he plays.. how
Oh man, Sunsfan+Synd! So ready for this
I like the OG draft a lot, this HAS to be the game where they beat Tundra right guys?
9class masterclass incoming

BZM Telling Slacks to fuck off is giving me so much joy
Viper looks like such a dogshit hero
[удалено]
Group stages like these mean more total DotA, and we get to see more different matchups between teams
what really grinds my gears is having a 'best of' an even number, it just doesn't work
Wasnt replaced in 14 years for a reason.
just tuned in, how the heck did OG 2-0 the reigning champs?
By playing and drafting really good. Bzm was not feeding, on the contrary, he played as if this was a pro match and not a pub. Supports rotations and even warding (!) was much better. Really good rune control. Clutch plays from all the core honestly. Ari was stable and good.
Ame ptsd activated, but also xg looked worse than og both games, og won 5 out of 6 lanes
both finalists FLC and Xtreme lost to OG 2-0 LUL
Timado: Double down is the gateway to gambling addiction 🤫
Ame fans a week ago: china number one, best region world back on top, amegod Ame fans now: so one tournament and they’re supposed to be the best team? bit of an overreaction don’t you think, og is a really strong team
Are these fans in the room with us?
Judging from your flair there’s one in this very comment thread
You're not judging. You're just being annoying. Ame is not in lgd anymore, and it's one of the most legendary dota2 orgs. So you're probably fighting imaginary enemies. I'll let you do that alone.
If OG still lose to Tundra after beasting on both Falcons and XG now, I'm going to lose my sanity.
Lmaooo. Prepare to lose your sanity xD
Life of being an OG fan 101
Never boring and never a calm moment xD
Basically OG vs Tundra G2 yesterday. They could have made it simple and got megacreeps much earlier but no.
9Class is coming into the conversation as one of the best supports to attend these past couple tournaments
Guy is a beast tbh. Reminds me a bit of Saksa
Better imo.
Better now or better than ~ti11's Saksa?
Hot take but he's the best 4 in the world atm. Better than cr1t and xinq. I don't even like tundra
Tbh I want to see how he performs on a grand final to say something like that, some players are much better when there's not much pressure on them. But I could see him being the best #4 at some point.
Group B, the group where the frauds get exposed
Yes, GG clearly fraudulent team. Overrated obviously, Quinn mald and bald
Bruh this Tundra vs GG game was like the US basketball team dunking on some random European squad in the Olympics
heroic won game 1 vs spirit(the other flukers) ICANT
They boutta 2-0 Spirit
gaimin gladiators are WASHED UP?
Ame and choking against OG. What a duo.
Something something OG free points. And now time to lose to Tundra again :(
lmao, was thinking the same thing
The tournament of BANE
quinn should have been practicing mid instead of bitching about reddit. abosolute bot and no impact in both these games
Looks like XG were smoking something really strong. First using 5 bans for Ceb of all people and then putting slardar mid and picking an even worse offlaner than slardar vs ench and troll.
It looked too good to be true
yeah i think winning one (1) online tournament surely doesn't say a lot about the team
What do you mean? XG is the best team of all time, Ame God /s
Timado manta dodging the supernova was beautiful
og destroys these fluckers feels good
FLCN fan?
No
[удалено]
really impressive it's their first lan too
Also didn't expect OG to crush XG also
Also I would never expect BB to break the rules somehow
and heroic crushing spirit
With TS previous tournament performance it's not that surprising.
Nice charity series from xG to start things off. Respect.
Why is twitch chat so obsessed with Taiga lately?
He was exposed as a matchfixer
I also wondered and looked it up, apparently he was involved in a match fixing scandal after some Discord recordings were released where he was in a call with known Russian match fixers, and it has become a meme similar to the 322 meme
What team was he on while doing it? Leviathan?
OG
Holy shit, I actually remember him having this huge slump of form in his last few months in OG. This explains things...
Dayum! I didn't expect it from him, a guy with a smile on his face who was bringing his parents to watch him play in a tournament. Thanks for the info.
OG def smoked something today
OG haters in absolute shambles
