I don’t see how Falcons lose this unless they make a series of uncharacteristically spectacular misplays. Naga can always stall and late game looks physically unwinnable for XG.
Naga has been banned in 90% of the games for a reason (IceFrog please just remove the ult nobody likes what it does to Dota) and Jugg is literally not a hero. What a hill to die on for a game 5.
Credit where it’s due to Ammar though, he knew XG like to play for the late game so instead of running the usual Falcons gameplan he just set up an ultimate late game inevitability. I think there maybe was still a path to victory for XG if they were able to play fast, but they just weren’t.
Falcons are too good to let themselves get caught out like that. XG played this game too slow from the start and made too many individual mistakes. Ame choking, honestly whole team kind of choking.
With how XG like to play this just felt like a complete soul read and outdraft by ATF.
I hate Falcons and want them to lose, but I fear we might be nearing the point where we have to admit there might be a reason Ame is the Uncrowned and not Crowned King, my friend.
It’s also a very Xiao8 move to pick Jugg and give up Naga in game 5 of a grand final.

Yeah XG’s draft was… questionable to put it nicely.

If XG get the absolute dream teamfight execution, I think they can still take it. It’s going to be really hard though.

5% chance still, I’m huffing that copium.
