    By now I am convinced they will fall the the TI curse. Highest rated team never wins.

    Secret lost all the games in the late game. I don't know what that is about, but I am just resigned now. Hype is gone, probably won't watch any other games after Secret is eliminated in game 2.

    Alliance TI3 ;p

    Secret just isn't as good (compared to the rest of the field) as TI3 Alliance.

    Pff, they pretty much swooped over every team in 4 tournaments before TI. They were pretty much the top team before TI, and now look at them. They are playing so bad in comparison to the ESL finals for example.

    Ah well, let's see game 2...

    That Secret vs IG game 1... holy shit.

    Gotta give it to Burning and IG, when shits on the line, they can really play their best.

    Totally thought Secret had this ,but i m ight have to switch to cheering for EG.

    Ok, that's more like what I expect from Secret.

    If you've watched any of their interviews, they've consistently said that if you ever bet against them, bet against them for the first game of the day.

    -----------------

    That 4 man vac/wall from Zai after RTZ was dead. So clutch.

    Still one game to go, but CDEC continues to surprise.

    Ok, mind is getting pretty blown right now. CDEC top 3. Honestly never saw this coming.

    Goddam CDEC so impressive. Where the fuck did that come from? I love seeing a qualifier team make a deep run like that.

    Agressif is what Xboct wishes he was. A ballsy carry that goes balls to the wall but doesnt throw.

    Those EG games were really entertaining. I'm actually almost rooting for EG over Secret right now.

    Well that's more like the Secret I expected to see.

    However, VP played pretty badly I think there. Two song initiations that resulted in 4-5 dead from their team.

    Well I gotta say, I feel sorry for S4. Everything went wrong for him that game.

    I think RTZ makes a good point, if you are the favorites going in, everyone studies you, and learns how to play agaisnt you.

    What a great showing by VP. RTZ and S4 traded off sucking in games 2 and 3. I definitely think S4 got outdrafted.

    All Stars Match was an absolute blast. Always one of my favorite parts of TI, and the 10v10 with half pros and half crowd members made it even better.

    VG is looking like the team that won everything 6 months ago again. Fy and Fenrir are crushing people. I think they are going to run the tables and make GF.
