Snake Stopper -- This is what Dignitas must do if they want to continue in competing in their very first International. Fogged must pull out a trick in his hat if he wants to keep his International dreams alive. On the other hand, LanM and his teammates are used to be in the brink of elimination. First was when they were up against Vici Gaming in The International 3 eastern qualifiers wherein they made an upset by eliminating the more favored ZSMJ Squad. After that, the crew once again was tested in a best-of-five eliminations series against Goblak and Quantic. Surprisingly, the Chinese prevail and was able to attend the main event together with the 15 other teams.

 

 

Though, RattleSnake is on a roll, their group stage result was dissapointing winning only 3 out of 14 match that send them in the lower bracket immediately. On the other page, Dignitas went on a superb start into a heartbreaking tie-breaker lost to LGD.cn for the last slot in the upper bracket.

 

Keys to the Game

Stick with the Basic

Dignitas has been seen picking up unorthodox hero such as Zues and Beastmaster for WaytoSexy. unfortunate for them, the experiment didn't went well as both of this picks resulted into a loss. If they want to have a higher percentage of win, WaytoSexy must play the conventional support like Bane and Vengeful Spirit who has 4-0 standing in the group stage

Kill the Snakes early

Dignitas with their recent triumph has averaged 14 kill lead against the opposition. Snowballing early is the higher chance of them winning against RattleSnake. RS's late game capability is impressive having 3-3 and those 3 defeats late in the game came from 2 formidable Chinese teams, iG and TongFu.

 

Prediction:

This is a tricky game. anything can happen in a best-of-one series. RGN favors RattleSnake to win this because of their experience being in the same position multiple times.
