I think Team Spirit is finished, it's hard to keep a team together when 3 of them are russians and 2 are ukrainians, and those countries are at war. Sad to see it, they were great to watch.

Fata was the problem lul .

wait? where are the redditors who said boom is overhyped and shit tier after they lost to tundra?

they didn't realize Tundra is also Top 1 EU lol

Calm bro this is not major

What in all the F***?! There's a small NA Touney called [Royal Jelly Covenant: NA] going on this weekend and there's literally ZERO coverage. No Twitch or Youtube streams! While the teams are not big, the casters are quite popular (Rkryptic, Brax, SirActionSlacks, SUNSfan, SyndereN). Where is the NA LOVE?!

Are they casting through dotatv only?

Streams will begin tomorrow for the matches, so only the bo8 matches

to be fair who the fuck cares about 8ks of NAs

Boom carried by yopaj, tims and skems lmao Fbz god where

Pretty cool that there will either be a full Iranian or Turkish team in the DPC this upcoming tour.

i m pretty sure both are coming xd

exciting schedule tommorow

Yeah! Rooting for T1 and BOOM! However, I'm a bit anxious with T1 winning against Team Orca and Lilgun. T1 have a weird standing with both teams.

When Tundra beat Boom in the upper bracket I thought about Boom and T1 winning from the lower bracket in their respective tournaments. It's a weird feeling like you've already envisioned it happening because you know they are capable.

Bo8? Damn we gonna be watching all day.

boom pog

Meanwhile Goon Squad dropping a game to Wisla in DPC tour 2 CQ, making it 1-1. Honestly not a good sign for them.

I just want to echo this

someone go make the grim reaper meme boom knocking everyone door

cursed meme

2-0 both TS on the same day yikes

YAPOY is my idol

Rooting for boom, i dont think team spirit gone bad its just Mira is not here, i believe he is the play maker of the team who can enable collapse godlike laning.

Valve needs to get rid of the DPC soon.

Ngl, DPC has some good point, especially for Mid tier and Lower tier team and players

DPC is good actually if you really think about it. If 1st major wasnt canceled, we are supposed to have 4-5 Valve LANs (3 major 1 minor 1 TI). And DPC in the middle of it to ensure we have pro games all year long.

Shoutout to Kyle for nailing Japoy's name correctly lol

YAPOY

Yall Boom fans are lucky that my boi Arteezy isnt at this tournament

This is a whole another level of copium you inhale here. Did you mistakes it from weed?

Troll or not, arteezy wont be winning TI. The only time EG won TI was without him

What are you talking about? We just saw cliffteezy and farmteezy earlier LOL

Lmao, I'm done. You mean TSM?

LMAOOOOOOOOO

you are losing it my guy, calm down david

hahahaahahahaahhahahaahhahahahahahaha

Wait there has to be more love for Yopaj's Doom bait and the situational awareness he had there, it was awesome, I kinda want to see it from Collapse's perspectice

I think he infernal bladed first and the illusion took like half HP lol

I would like to see Doom's perspective in that bait, yopaj slight of fist him first from fog i think then his illu just showed up thats why doom thought it was the real hero.

if i correct remember someone trashing FBZ after BOOM vs OG match

guess what? People trashtalk team that losing

People trashing fbz in the previous match thread. Here you fucking go. This is fbz. No touches with no service, but when he does get it, it's done.

People tend to forget that Jacky is just a new carry for boom, this tournament maybe is the first time they see each other personally. That's why skem always said they still learning, because Boom carry went from Palos -> Tino -> standin.Mushi -> Jacky.

tbh jackky is a massive upgrade over tino and they were already the best team in sea

Wow Skem and Yopaj getting the attention they deserve.

Yup. Same here. Followed them since neon days with there weird drafts. I remember skem likes playing nature's prophet and japoy's Puck with dagon (run & gun) playstyle. It's like the enemy don't know what hit them. 🤣

So when are SEA gonna win a TI finals

When rtz gonna win a major

I'll gladly drink ur tears, my friend

Copium tears T.T

just wait its not gonna be long. meanwhile, ez game spirit super weak team :))

😭😭😭

Boom idolaku

Wrong tagalog

Ledditors comments is the best PepeLaugh

Well bois, you know what's cookin'.

Boom will be studied for sure. I've been hyping Yopaj for so long and I'm glad he is being recognized more.

my goodness

They experienced this already though. SEA DPC finals game 1 & 2. Peak Boom right there.

To be fair, T1 is the only team that can beat Boom beside Tundra with Saksa's MK, which will be banned for sure if Boom manage to reach the grandfinal tomorrow.

Yopaj fucking danced around and out played Tokyo and Collapse.

Cant wait to see how these spirit hating LGD fans react when Nigma destroys them tmr

Are you high on crack or smth?

What? How on earth is LGD part of the convo?

What does LGD have to do here?

?

That is just some top tier dota from boom, holy fuck

Nice play by boom but yall are overreacting. When was the last time a team won a LAN with a standin?

Not exactly a LAN. But PSG.LGD with xiao8 won DotaPit. A couple months ago. Replacing their best player, who's regarded as the best player in the world as well. On the midlane. Played bara from midlane. Remember?

how much?

Nigma with rMn?

LGD vs Team Spirit Oga Dota Pit 2021. 3-1

youre the one over reacting defending team spirit while they barely get trashtalked here

Jks with FaZe

the viewership is so nice, Russians, why did you have to fuck us like this :(

Kyle 6th place at major as best placing KEKW

Better than me.

LGD were the gods of cutting creeps, delaying the game, and activating their carry with great fights. T1 adopted it and played with it for a while. Boom with their catch and map read has mastered how to counter these slow drafts so teams who lose lane gets chased around and picked off one after another. A surprise to see that happen to TS but Boom is just playing on their comfort and they will just dominate that way.

Torontotokyo has been an underwhelming mid laner after TI no 🧢. The guy just never wins his lane and always relies on Yotaro or Collaspe to carry his shit and bring him back into the game.

He was already the weakest link during Ti too though

Team Spirit 7-0 whole DPC and 3-0 Regional finals. This redditor: their mid is so overrated. I cant.

Toronto bested Yopaj with his DK tho?

So happy for Jackky playing 4 great games today after a bad day yesterday!!

This BOOM team is hot right now, I have a feeling that LGD is their main scriming partner.

Apparently Boom-T1-LGD are scrimming partners

LGD is one of them

Russian-Ukraine war

They lose because of enchantress. Don't say it's because of the war and politics.

very true. I'm happy for Boom, they have defeated the world champions. But at the same time, everyone knows that Team Spirit's head might not be fully in this tourney with what happens at home. Plus, they play with a standin. Regardless, this is a great experience for Boom. As a team, they really lack international LAN experience.

Reasons

All true. They obviously look off and un-motivated. Very understandable given the circumstances.

+not magnus patch KEKW

I got to agree, these can really be the factors why they're not in their best form. I was hoping for a really good series. (rooting Boom btw)

Standin was definitely the biggest difference. Mira is sooo good

Rodjer really likes Enchantress lol.

Mickey Mouse TI winners

Boom was 5k gold behind then in a blink of an eye it's erased and they never looked back. Just wow.

Bro TS had a standin, wake up

Its quite amazing how one standin in Dota can downgrade the team so much, hopefully mira stays safe and returns!

[удалено]

Can't really judge Spirit conclusively this tournament, Mira missing + new patch + the situation in Eastern Europe is not a good combo

“he’s so good” x4

BOOM - leave EU to me

Alright haters, time to hear how Team Spirit is actually also overrated, and how Boom still needs to prove themselves.

boom still needa to improve themself, so they can win in ti 😎👍

Another TI flukers - haters

That early game from Spirit was absolutely perfect, felt like they made all the right adjustments in laning

Damn BOOM eliminates both TS's today!

[удалено]

Because of shard being available five minutes earlier. I really don't welcome this change honestly.

Today games average duration was 36:13 mins, and the last day of WEU division I average duration was 38:43 mins. I don't see the difference.

I just long for the days where draft doesn't decide like 80% of the outcome of games...

7.Yopaj

Ti really is just a very expensive test server.

Boom just looking flawless

Spirit are definitely missing Mira’s playmaking potential in this tournament. The early/midgame fights feels like they’re constantly the ones getting jumped which isn’t a shock as rodjer has mostly been playing more passive heroes

Game 1? Enchantress to lose. Game 2? Another Enchantress to lose, overrated hero.

This is why I like about international dota…any team can beat each other. Hope valve remove their shitty regional tournament

can we make Tide taunt not sound like Relocate?

Wow Boom just completely outclassed TS this series

Tidehunter 4 is new meta and TIMS is making it look good. Had it in one of my pubs though and it was underwhelming.

It's not a new 'Meta', Spirit picked Doom and Disruptor so they flexed Tide to 4 and picked Viper to counter TA and DK instead, It wasn't like they came into the game thinking we're gonna pick Tide 4.

Tide support has been meta at sea pro matches for a while

damn, spirit got sorted by SEA

Yesssss so happy for boom

Torontotokyo still farming

call gg

what an embarassing performance from Spirit this game

this is omega over

Yopaj jumped away from the team fight

Cause he dont want to get instantly silenced by disruptor. He did it again in the last fight

Woulda been a easy game with Mira

woulda been an easy game with unnerfed magnus*

I've expected this kind of comment would come.

wow this is a complete dismantling.

Storm abed Ember yopaj

void topson?

Yopaj is my idol

its actually unreal how good collapse is

proceeds to doom an illusion kekw

Collapse beast mode. 1-1.

This comment might not age well.

Holy shit. DPC havent even start yet this patch already seems so fcking stale. Same mid same carry same support. Damn. I miss carries like Slark, PL, Spectre, Alche, AW all those.

Patch doesn't change much, valve being lazy....

also good to see bane being banned because that hero is fucking insane, swear some teams just ascend with it

skem and Miposhka are bane players

lol ephey confuse about skem called yopaj Japoy, its like his previous IGN name, and current name just a mirroring from that

I kinda miss chinese teams now. They always bring a different kind of spiciness on international tournaments

SEA and CN teams is like a brothers now with a lot of CN-SEA tourney and well known fact that T1 is LGD's scrim patner. CN learn SEA aggressiveness and SEA learn the discipline from CN playstyle. Basically you got a CN reps live inside of top SEA teams now, albeit not on LGD-tier.

Once Boom has a 2-3k lead in the 1st 10 minutes, they just go full throttle and never look back.

Tino: Am I a joke to you ?

SEA bois too polite. Saying thank you back to Kyle after he thanks them for doing the interview.

It's a common thing to do here in the Philippines and I assumed that it was common as well in other countries, but maybe there are cultural differences.

wait, didn't skem play for an NA team?

You might remember him as ctm/skemberlu.

yeah... with EE

yes, he played in complexity

They making Kyle do Slack’s job. Hahaha

these Kyle interviews are so fuckin funny LMAO shout-out to the cameraman too

Tims lol

Methodical shit from Boom. Rarely you see something so disciplined from SEA. I DEARLY hope that Boom 2-0's Spirit here. But if they lose the series, I'm happy still.

I am more nervous than Boom bro, my leg is literally shaking even when they were in the lead

Daaaaangg! China-SEA scrims and some pubs are paying off big time as time goes by.

LGD's scrim partners, lol. T1, LGD and Boom are each others scrim partners.

Boom didn’t came for peace they woke up and chose violence

bro i wanna proud of BOOM, but im not sure what is this Team Spirit draft?

This looks like a no stun Kuro draft lol

BOOM doubters? SEA haters?

most of them only appear when SEA is losing

this enchantress pick so useless

and they pair with an io support KEKW

BOOM living-up to the hype so far with beating Secret and taking a game-off Spirit.

no stun draft is just bad, can teams stop doing that lol

to be fair Tundra won against Boom with a limited stun draft... had like MK as their only stun

Yopaj is the best player in the world right now. This guy's impact and laning is always insane.

Id take NTS over Yopaj anyday.. until Yopaj dominate NTS in a match, then NTS >> Yopaj.

Comment of the year IMHO

Why does Ench have a lance?

A little bored of seeing Kunkka so much now

Mighty boring if your bandwagon is getting beat by it

Would you rather have TA papa?

Yea.. same.

I think Kunkka's a pretty fun hero to watch.

BOOM taking the lead in the mid-game. Yopaj Kunkka might be worthy of a first phase ban.

So is Yopaj officially the breakout star of this season? This kid is sooooo good!!

he is playing at this top level at least 3 years. difference is his previous teams were not tier 1. you can check his aegis steal clips from 2019 or so if you dont believe me.

he was already a breakout star back in singapore major
