I think topson was carried this series. He died so many times unnecessarily. Many he does good other times but today, this series, he was carried hard. Ceb for sure mvp this game, Ana for game 5. Topson wasn't mvp any game.

[@ruslanvictorenko1536]

@@H2oRiz They focused on Topson, trying to ruin his game. Ceb was bought time to farm.

[@dragonbane44]

@@H2oRiz LGD game plan was to focus on enemy mid and snowball. They gave Topson a very hard time. But that created some space for others. For eg ceb got space in this game. Later Topson was able to recover.

[@sylvasylvi5109]

@@H2oRiz Its because TOPSON is an extremely aggressive mid player so if he gets space he will have one mission and thats going around the map and destroying enemy farm and getting kills. The same as SUMAIL but more aggressive. That means the enemy cant give topson space and have to cut him down early game otherwise they will regret it. After topson goes around the map and gets kills and dies often a lot of space is usually created for ANA and that means ana will simply come out of farming and carry the game. So no topson didnt fuck up. It's his playstyle and LGD knows that and that's why the focus him so much.

[@KidTrigger]

sylva sylvi so topson throwing a tornado wrong direction and cancelling ghost walk is not a mistake get out of here I love topson and og but dota isn’t all about space and that stuff topspon constantly bad positioning led him to dying becuase Lgd focused him it’s simple what to do just change your oakystaly elf you are behind and getting targeted if dota actually orked how you thought then no one would god do kills because it gives other space the perfect dota game is no one dying it’s better not to die

1:03:26 Ame (Morphling) gets juked by Ana (PL) illusion. --- Also, LGD had two tier 3 towers down for a long time but they forgot to take down the shrines, which allowed JeRax to burst heal Ana --- critical error by LGD.

[@H4mStr4mGr4m]

the cull*

[@lc9245]

While it was a great play. I don't think it would have decided the game. I think Ana still has BB and so were 2 other OG. Had Ceb not jumping in, he would have lived too, which makes it 3 people alive at least, not counting Ana, to guard against Ame morph + 2 as Ana probably would be able to take out Tusk before he dies had Ceb not jumping in, who along with Bloodseeker has no BB. The call simply sealed the game and ends LGD hope of a comeback. There are more significant moment, such as Ana selling item to buy back which wins them the fight, their 2 minutes push delay with Ana illusion confused LGD, LGD hesitation to push high ground, Ceb catching Ame at bot which gave them 2 lane and one barrack. It was a great game, the call was just the cherry on top.

[@nikosthanopoulossarlis2919]

[@solomonthegreat290]

You guys noticed it after the "Ceeeeb" call? If you look closely after that teamfight all OG's buybacks are all replenished, so that just means OG are so sufficient and strategic when it comes to Buybacks during TI8, so basically speaking, no matter what happens they already win that teamfight, because OG already forced and controlled LGD to start a clash with their buybacks on a good timings. Next Level Play I think they mastered the art of Buyback I dont freaking know why there are people saying OG's TI8 win was a fluke, I really dont understand that statement, it seems all the haters really underestimated OG's 2018-19 Roster at all.

[@Pfizer980]

this game was LGD's when they destroyed 2 tower inside OG's base, they should've taken the risk to take the 3rd, but they just don't want to take a risk when they have a great upper hands, they should've known that their opponent OG has great comebacks, so you just have to risk it in the right time, or you'll gonna risk it again in late game. It's just the same, you'll have yo take the risk sooner or later. Hands down to the mogul kahn btw

In the semi finals against OG, LGD wanted to finish the game quick, but got greedy by pushing the T4 towers and ancient using buybacks just for attacking. They failed and it cost them the game. They learned the lesson, but playing safe didn't work either

the casters are talking about how OG gets nothing out of their advance while they kill both shrines onscreen. Then OG proceeds to win the game because of their shrines. in hindsight it is interesting to see the decision making. LGD did not even bother to kill shrines when they were standing outside of OG base with backdoor protection and getting their creeps cut. Later on This bites them hard as when they go to rosh they turn around to kill the shrine and OG TPs to defend shrine and contest rosh. And in the same teamfight jerax buys back and tps to save PL with shrine heal.
