General DiscussionManila Major Winner?

Alliance will win! They will rat their way to a win.

OG for sure. Spam pick timber, cut trees to win kappa.

Team Liquid are the favourites, most in form and have the easiet group.

team that stands no chance at all is mineski. bet mineski for the least played hero.

MVP Phoenix !

Liquid are favored with OG and Newbee right after. I just want ur guys opinions about it.

I think vici R is also countable team

I thought it was liquid mvp and newbee who were the top 3?

I'm gonna make a bold prediction and say LGD.

i went yolo and bet on DC

MVP is so underperformed now, i think top3 will be Newbee Liquid and VG-R... And i think Sumail can bring EG to get atleast 6th place!
Hope for good matches, and Crowd sounds to be really awesome according to ESL one manila.

Mineski got zero percent chance to win it.

Secret for sure. They found their form

Dark horse team of this tournament would be DC.

Secret

Voting for Liquid or OG

Team Secret

Mvp ofc.

Liquid or Newbee
OG looks good too yet everybody can see that Miracle is literally doing the whole job there

One thing for sure Alliance will not get a top3 finish.. maybe top 5. Hate to admit that but its the truth

People are betting on wings gaming too. This tournament will be the most unpredictable and competitive, because there aren't clear favorites, liquid, OG and newbee looking strong. Wings are the new CDEC, while secret and EG are sleeping giants who can wake up at any time and destroy other teams. Also there are dark horses like CoL, DC and the fan favorites Navi, alliance. Fnatic can spring up some surprises, they are the home team.

Alliance will take it. They have been practicing some sick Leshrac + Bloodseeker strats.

Idk how anyone can say. Any favorite vs the field has to be like 7-1 in favor of the field at this point, I mean would you give any team a better shot than like 15% right now?. Competition is very tight, not a huge difference now between the worst teams and best. I mean a team that has been a staple of tournaments in VP didn't even make it this year during playins. I'd lean towards saying mineski has no shot cus I don't know them at all, and complexity has no chance just cus holy hell look at their group stage. Complexity surprised me at the last two majors but a group stage vs empire, newbee and og, they could be 0fer going into the main event. I'd say secret and eg are still my favorites to win it all but who knows.

I hope Secret get rekt by Digital Chaos.
I think Liquid, Wings, OG and Newbee will go far. Personally I will be fan of Liquid. Go Kuroky!

DC did look pretty good during the americas qualifier.
