EHOME upset Virtus.Pro to finish group B on third position

After an intense two game series versus Virtus.Pro EHOME secured themselves third position in group B which put fng’s team in danger to lose their fourth place.

Before the last two series from group B started, Virtus Pro was standing on the fourth position with 9 points and they had to wait for Empire vs MvP.HOT6 series to finish for their faith to be decided.

A very determined Team Empire started the game one with a good ganking oriented draft and at the same time very efficient teamfighting one with ALWAYSWANNAFLY on Disruptor and ALOHADANCE on Bounty Hunter while Silent carried the team with Wraith King.  During the laning phase 10 kills were equally spread as both teams used a lot of rotations. But at the 11 minute mark the first teamfight occurred and with a perfect ultimate from Disruptor four MVP.HOT6 heroes died feeding also bounty tracks to the Russian squad. From there on Team Empire snowballed really hard forcing MVP.HOT6 to call out the GG before tier two towers fell.

Quite the same thing happened in the second game as well, the big difference being  the way MvP.HOT6 drafted. They went with a Broodmother third pick and Empire easily countered it with an Axe last pick for yoky. The lanes were all won by Empire and once the teamfights started Resolut1on’s Dragon Knight and Silent’s QoP became unstoppable. When Team Empire made the first high ground push MvP.HOT6 made the GG call.

EHOME on the other hand, had the chance to finish the group stage on first place if they would have won with a 2-0 versus CDEC Gaming but the young Chinese DotA Elites allowed ROtk and co. to take only one game from them, as the series finished in a tie.

Empire and Virtus.Pro head are going head to head in a BO3 final series to decide who goes into Upper Bracket and who will start the main event from the Lower Braket.
