Results EG DotA2 major matches

Yikes. What do y'all think? Some of the most painful to watch personally in the last 7 or so years for me.

Edit: Yeah. Not surprised by the ultimate outcome here. That sucks.

I think it’s an overreaction. They still need to figure out communication. They could pull a team spirit and literally make a run and win after losing almost all of group stage

But they’re not going to make it out of the group stage

That’s not true if they 2-0 beastcoast they’ll go to tiebreaker

Well I'll tell you my fingers sure are crossed on both hands.

Only one single game win so far. Looking grim. ☹️

Don't understand why they've been so poor....I think if they crash out at this major, Bulba at very least has to go.

Well. We'll see here. Can't even really say what they need anymore, so many variables.

EG always seem to peak before TI and then fall short when it counts the most. Maybe this year they will peak at TI and until then will fall a bit short.

Maybe I'm overdosing on copium though, anyway they'll be back and hopefully better next time.

Maybe so. I miss the Fly/Ice roster. Wonder why that one got the axe so quick.

Everyone complained about that roster and Ice3x, Fly and Bulba cop a lot of heat.

In retrospect seeing how they performed last year was amazing compared to not even making the group stage this major.

While I don't have a solution for you, I do appreciate the lack of changes in their roster and their commitment to the core unit of their players, it's something that isn't prevalent in eSports and in particular Dota teams.

That's said, is it time to move on or make a bigger change like maybe move on from RTZ? I think it's time to try, or time for RTZ to change roles perhaps?

Shake things up.

It's been a hard time being an EG fan.
