Just deal with someone that has good rep / multiple transactions.

Unsure if that is exactly true but that was the inference from the interview.

close, they use random forest - so its not a sim saying to try both. it just tries random things, records the results over thousands/millions iterations, and comes to the GTO solution

Thats right it will try like randomly walking around taunting and then later determine hitting buildings works better yadayada. So like definitely killing ranged is correct?

Sumail almost throws game 1 with a couple of questionable decisions then just dominates mid so much in game 2 he single-handedly wins the game, the guy is so sick
And Liquid is losing 34-1 lol wtf

I think it's really weird that teams are picking Tiny up so often it seems like. I'm gonna go ahead and say that will stop by day 3 or so.

Don’t think so. They took Techies out for a while but put it back in at least before the last big tournament.

Apparently Wraith King is a first phase pick now? Hmmm

Loving this new OG team, such a ragtag squad

Oh man Tobi + Synd are casting games in the group stage? My all-time favorite casting combo, gotta watch these games I guess

Looked at it some and Wraith King is turning out to be a really flexible pick, can be basically any position except for mid. The max skeletons first build has kind of a poor mans Brood feel, can just swarm anyone early on who doesn’t have answers for multiple units. One combo I don’t think I’ve seen yet that might be good is beastmaster 3, WK 1, and deathball it with max skeletons, life steal, beast aura.

Also EG is back

everybody picks ursa now

EG has to beat secret and vgjs(or OG) to guarantee top 3? very doable if they play as well as in groups

Very true, turns out finishing second was much better than first

Ace's meepo was looking sick. I was kinda sleeping on him but he looked a lot better than Abed on meepo (Abed's best hero?).. Abed been carrying EE on his back for like a year and in my top 3-5 mids. This TI is Secret's IMO. (Not a Puppey fan here.)

Agree that is very doable.

I'm still an ursa skeptic, i don't think it has aged well from a power creep standpoint, as a situational pick once in a while he is fine

Secret has been so inconsistent prior to this tournament, I think it has mostly been drafting . It is a super dangerous and hard to predict team when playing it's best, ace is also really fun to watch. I remember seeing him win a very difficult game with a very unconventional draft and carry kunka, was also fun to watch on lone druid when it was in the meta more
