It's Gosu Monthly Madness Qualifier #1 Sees Upsets

Posted by Calvin "Jaywalker" C 3 months ago


The first qualifier of It’s Gosu Monthly Madness tournament was participated by teams that were both known and unknown, and it certainly created a lot of action.

Despite strong lineup and reputation in teams such as Sweden Team Infused, Ukraine eSahara and fan favorite Russia Darer, it was in fact United States Water and Sweden 4 Friends + Chrillee that earned the two hard fought spots to join the 12 seeded teams for the $1000 competition.

Whilst both teams played exceptionally well going up against some of the top teams in the world, the talk of the competition will no doubt be the unexpected elimination of Darer by team RMB. With pudge pulling off vital hooks, team RMB managed to stay in the match despite significant gold disadvantage. Be sure to check out the VOD commentated by casters Ayesee and Draskyll in the links provided below.

However, fans will be relieved as some of the teams will be joining the second qualifier coming this weekend for a second chance at the 2 remaining qualifier spots. Teams that will feature the second time in the qualifiers include Darer, Team Infused and eSahara. Teams that will participate also include Serbia Fnatic and Russia DTS, so be sure to tune in to the live streams that will be available on the It’s Gosu website.

Read the full story on It's Gosu with more information on Water and 4 Friends + Chrillee from the links provided below.

Now all we need is a couple more NA teams coming out like Team Earth, Team Wind, etc.

Come WCG's they can all form up and make Team Captain Planet.

No flame please, I'm simply joking

GG,imo biggest mistake by Darer was underrating RMBs Pudge player.Anyway pudge played a great game w/o him RMB would definetly lose to Darer,just look at the Gold diffrence and CS diffrence.

#21 GoSuMali 3 months ago
@19 He'll cast the whole tournament

@20 I really don't think Darer underestimated them but the thing is that they won the first game really easily and they thought the second game would be the same so they chilled out but found out they were better than expected but unfortunately, it was too late for a comeback. Darer tried their best in late game but well...

Furthermore, RMB is not very known while Darer are so RMB had information about Darer, how to counter them etc while Darer knew nothing about them which is a huge disadvantage. Anyway, RMB played very well this game.

#21 Good, would like to see some other co-caters thought. And speaking of casters, will Casper stream the future games? i love his stream too..

@23 I actually think Team Water are bad - they just got very lucky and I won't even talk about their game against Infused. Americans really can't play Dota... Also, funny they faked team FIRE, I wonder if another team will pick another element as team name. Anyway, good luck to them.

nice game not quite an upset i say, think darer is just a new formed team clearly their team cohesion was not that good yet specialy at the early game compared to RMB, Darer picks was good insane push on their lineup... recomended vod!

#43 GoSuMali 3 months ago
@42 I suppose you are talking about Duskbin. They registered for the tournament but they didn't check-in in time so at the end, they didn't play it.
#44 r0yaLe2k11 3 months ago
Yeah #40 is right, the co-caster should know more about the game and not trying to teach Artstyle how to play DotA.. (third comment about the stream, lol)
