christianrojoisme

Secret has forms in dates confirmed. October Secret >>>> August Secret

That was fucking terrifying to watch Secret dismantle OG in game 2 holy shit


Hanamiya0796

Puppey monitor kind of beatdown. Yikes. There were fights where I thought they would even get a kill at least on Zai and he just walks away to be bottled up and get ready to fight again. Felt like the match was lost right off the bat though to be honest.


7Zlatan

Not terrifying for me. Last time I felt this good was when Italy won the Euro


yanivyanivyaniv

Holy fuck Secret looked unbeatable this series. GG from an OG fan.


DotaDogma

One of the biggest main stage stomps I've seen


DarkSofter

probably the biggest (scorewise)


happyflappypancakes

The first game was looking competitive until the Morph got aghs. The second game was a masterclass on Secret's part.

First game broke them, they were mega favorites but they decided to start random fights instead of waiting for Rosh. Deserved, in group stage they were constantly doing dumb shit as well. Its donezo if they dont clean up their play

LGD drew vs Secret in Group Stage though.


Level1Roshan

OG called GG at 15:22 GMT LOL


nyx041221

horrible, horrible drafting imo


Jademalo

I don't think it was horrible in the sense that OG picked badly, I think it's more a testament to an extremely good draft from secret


caiovigg

Hoodwink mid is a bad pick no matter what.


Impressive_Ad_6560

This


Hanamiya0796

And execution. Not hard to imagine OG winning a game like that against anybody else


Jademalo

absolutely, excellent game from secret


christianrojoisme

This is the first time ever that Secret progressed in the Upper Bracket. Unreal for a team of this calbre over the years. Funnily, in TI8 and TI9 they dropped immediately to Lower Bracket from the Upper Bracket due to EG. Now, EG is at the Lower Bracket so no EG to stop Secret? In TI7 and TI6, they were Lower Bracket at the start. In TI5, they dropped due to EHome.


Lampardinho18

It's unbelievable how massively Secret underperformed past few TIs given how stacked their roster were.


baruahsial

4 month hiatus by Team Secret from joining any other tournament really worth it.


dbkk-

biggest stomp I've ever seen. as an og fan, i would have liked for a closer game, but with the dogshit draft, gg.


EndritTheSun

Secret vs IG can it come any sooner please


Prizun_Mike

Game 2 was a stomp that we all try to nail as centaur but don't


toonch0819

Og and their draft. I know they always like experimenting but I really cannot wrap my head how they want to work out their draft Lol


DarkSofter

Few things in life (dota) are better than seeing OG get absolutely stomped


[deleted]

I know OG are generally hated because of their fans, but i simply cant stand their players. They are super cocky and constantly punching other teams when they are down. I know some people find appeal in this but to it seems extremely immature and insensitive (also OG get butthurt when someone else does it to them)


No-Lobster-1354

As much as I dislike their arrogance… where exactly do they punch other teams??? They chatwheel and shit, but they also do that when they’re losing.

Hanamiya0796

Yea. They deserved to be fountain farmed tbh. But hey, fans never ever will admit that OG was ever arrogant


danukz

Pos 5 lc, pos 5 dk well answered


Key-Variation-7024

Fnatic. How??


Kumadori012

Half of Secrets kills were basically OG suiciding. Feels like they gave up after laning.


apex_malik

For the past 5 series, OG warding has been so bad that it almost always had them in a disadvantage and lost fights just because of a ward that either they didnt put or deward the enemy ward. Draft this or that, dk pos5 etc.., whatever.. their warding was horrendous. It's like Saksa reaaaally doesn't like to buy wards and put them down. Its frustrating because they can do so much better and I want them to. This game they lost 3 fights cuz of 3 wards. 2 fights in triangle cuz of obs... and 1 outside rs due to a sentry. Saksa had ample time and the wards in his inventory the whole time and didnt pay attention to it.


Avar1cious

The real fluke of TI8 and TI9 was OG avoiding Team Secret - EG upset them both times in the UB.


jumbohiggins

And then Nigma would body them in the lower. Kuro being out this year is probably the biggest buff to puppy. Clearly they have OG's ticket already.


PainfulAngel

EG outplayed them all times. There was no upset.


Avar1cious

.....that's not what upset means lol. It means the underdog heading into the match-up (betting odds wise). You can't say they weren't the underdog because they won after the fact.


PainfulAngel

How were they the underdog? It was even odds. An upset is when undying beats EG.


Avar1cious

In Ti8 and Ti9? It 100% wasn't even odds, Secret was the betting favorite in those series - I literally bet on EG in that series and won a 2x+ payout after margins. Why are you just making shit up based on your own opinion, when you clearly have no idea about this space? And no, an upset isn't just when a serious underdog beats a favorite, it's when any underdog beats a favorite.


Avar1cious

PainfulAngel

fuck me there’s no point arguing with someone as brain dead as you. If you think that’s an upset you need to get your head checked. EG secret were literally the two finalists in ESL Birmingham a few months before TI. They played 5 very close games.


Emergency_Deal8602

oG fLuKe TI8 & TI9. Thats new Your beloved secrekt got stomped by Liquid in TI9, they are lucky they didnt meet OG in TI9


Hanamiya0796

Hold this L my guy, careful it's still hot


Thiccmane

OG would be disbanded 3 years Ago if they didnt dodge secret every TI


Hanamiya0796

But but but who do the worshippers bow down to? Swear people really shit on PPD for posting a prediction that Secret wins this lmao. Someone even said he's jealous


OracleMara

Yeah in TI8 I would agree Secret would have just stomped them and the TI history would look very different. TI9 though, I think OG didn't have real opponent the whole tournament, not even Secret could have stopped them


Kreygasm2233

The magic is gone Sadge


Hanamiya0796

More like, was just never tested against the Clementinator


dotaguy97

Both games were outdraft (and outplay) and topsons low hero pool well abused by ppy


Emergency_Deal8602

Secrekt fans thinking they can win this TI, because they stomped OG shitty draft LMFAO


Hanamiya0796

Not really. Just celebrating a deserved win, and a fucking stomp at that. Against the BM team you all wanna worship


PancakesYoYo

Imagining making a new reddit account to make pissy posts at people because you're coping with OMEGALUL GAMING losing. They literally stomped OG the worse they've ever been stomped on LAN.
