This was a draft win, Secret needed to really shit the bed to lose. Beautiful opening with the Bane/WW ban, Spirit 100% wasn't expecting that, they left so much meta shit in the pool Spirit was forced into an awkward situation.

Nisha was just insane though, just like last TI when Midone was chocking and Nisha was just a kid at his first TI, he's just bringing it on when it's needed the most.

People blaming zai are indirectly discrediting team spirit. They faked the fight and disengaged. The radiant jungle ward also is big for them. Morph even sold items after* buying back to buy BOTs and kill the throne.

Incredible throw there. Game was pretty comfortable before unnecessary Zai buyback. But to then smoke with no buyback on Jugg either and Yapzor like 20 gold away from Aghs...

u/Doomroar Oct 17 '21

Jakiro has a 100% lose rate on the main event.

Teams keep playing with him, giving me hope, and then losing, we all should know by now that as awesome as a two headed dragon that uses fire and ice is, in the end the homie is not a competitive hero, he is for pubs and fun, and saddly that's as far as he goes.

With that said respect to team spirit for giving him a chance even at the risk of elimination.

u/EtadanikM Oct 17 '21

Momentum teams succeed until they meet a team that is experienced enough to see what they're doing, and flexible enough to counter pick them. This game was over from the start. Secret just has too much damage late game so even if they got behind - and they never did - they would be able to come back while Team Spirit had to play a perfect game to stand a chance.

Holy jesus collapse showing up big time every series of the way to now the grand finals!

Every single series he has multiple times pin pointed the enemy's exact positions to a single pixel through fow! Holy shit the brain on this man he is in the heads of his opponents man.

I think hes done it over 6 times so far. In secret game 2 that blind blink right on Nisha void spirit instant ravage to prevent any reaction was just a masterclass holy shit this is a Cinderella story if we ever saw one. So super clutch for sure! He had already queued casted ravage on blink before he even had any vision on Nisha! Who has balls like that to gamble on FOW with ultis like that!

Perfect representation of the game was Matumba diving TS on the top T1 tower, following the Wolf-Bite powerup. Zai was basically in mid-lane, (no lifesteal, lacking damage to secure the kills on supports).

Puppey in trees dying for almost no reason.

TS played lights out but I don't think a single Secret player can be proud of how they played in Game 3.

u/EtadanikM Oct 17 '21

Surprising lack of discipline from Secret; usually they are a lot better than that. They definitely did have the late game damage to take down Team Spirit - we can see Nisha at the end almost 1 on 5 - so could've been more patient. To Team Spirit's credit, though, they showed a different play style and heroes than they had been showing so far; this was key, as it made Secret's preparations less relevant.

u/iiyamabto Oct 17 '21

Only Nisha played well in Secret, literally keeping them in G2, by having a lot of important pickoffs when losing fights. Matu is just constantly farming with no impact. Zai was not finding the RP that they were looking for. YapzOr almost zero impact.

On the other hand, that Morph Willy combo is just disgustingly good. Miposhka gave several clutch hex + stun as well, WP Team Spirit.

6

u/GODofTWERK Oct 17 '21

Ok Spirit gave them the most broken combo in Tiny+Lycan, one of the top two supports in ET(other is Bane) and what might be the most impactful and succesful mid hero in Lina. If they win this they deserve to be in the final for sure.

at this point, Secret already knew Torontotokyo will dive no matter what (they win or lose).
Just play around that, and they will get their win. You dive at us, we dive back

Secret practices against og and nigma... Two best io teams... I dont think many teams can make it work vs them.

Well there's the mag and ench. 2-0 secret unfortunately.

I enjoyed watching spirit as much as the next person but you can't let secret get them 2 heroes.

u/[deleted] Oct 17 '21

Damn hype. Willow pick was great. Nisha was keeping them in that game solo but Team Spirit with a great draft and play. Both these teams are so fun to watch. Would be fine with either winning, just hope one of them can give LGD a challenge.

u/FutureVawX Wards everywhere Oct 17 '21

I'm super excited about Spirit winning, but this time I have to blame Secret for that poor last fight.

Yes the ward win Spirit the game, but going out with 2 of their cores without buyback is just weird.

Also Matu for some reason fail to spin TP is just very bad.

Zai playing insane for almost 2 games, then throws on the final minutes .

Really not used to secret throwing. Now pressure is on them, lets see .

u/Dusky1103 Oct 17 '21

I wouldn’t blame Zai. It’s Secret in general. Why the fuck would they be in bottom jungle without ANY vision and no buyback on their cores? That’s herald level dotes.

Fuck, nisha playing out of his mind and zai trying his hardest to throw the game, totally unnecessary bb only to die immediately after and lose the game

Nisha almost hold by himself vs 5, so yeah if they had the whole team pretty sure they could win that game

Hopefully this lost does not cost them the series
