Best Games of the GosuLeague Qualifiers

Our countdown
Number 5: GosuLeague Qualifier VII United States ExGosu vs mTw Europe
(VOD)


Look out for...
-mTw's aggressive warding from the start of the game, giving vision and space for Outworld Destroyer to farm.
-Quick reactions on mTw's support players, Shadow Demon and Earthshaker, locking down exGosu's heroes.
-exGosu's Crystal Maiden and Chen smoke ganks, roaming throughout the map during the early game and transitioning to pushing down towers.
-Highlight of the game: 27 minutes in, mTw are attempting Roshan, exGosu group up trying to engage, but a surprising Blink Dagger-Echo slam combination by Kebap, gave mTw the opening they needed, taking down two in exchange for one, and the Aegis as well on their Lone Druid. While Lone Druid was finishing up Roshan, the remaining mTw players smoked up immediately to gain the bonus movement of the buff, and tried to chase the fleeing exGosu players, successfully finding PAINTITGOLD's Leshrac and picking him up.

Number 4: GosuLeague Qualifier VII Sweden 4FC vs DTS Ukraine

Look out for...
-DTS unconventional drafting and laning Bane as their middle lane solo
-4FC's early ganks, getting ahead in the first minutes of the game.
-Shadow Demon's performance overall, keeping DTS in the game during the middle stages of the game.
-A very jungle oriented game, with Enchantress and Bone for DTS, and Chen and Prophet for 4FC fighting for the neutrals' domination.
-Highlight of the game: 26:30 to 27:30, DTS try to force the fight in 4FC's middle tier 2 tower, engaging with Leshrac's stun and Bane's disables, while at the same time Bone Fletcher, who had completed his BKB, along with Enchantress, managed to pick up 4 4FC's heroes and tie the scoreboard to 20-20.

Number 3: GosuLeague Qualifier IV Sweden 4FC vs Next.Kz Kazakhstan
(VOD)


Look out for...
-Next.Kz's patience and strife to win, even when they were losing by a large margin during the early stages of the game.
-Despite both team having semi and hard-carries in Bounty Hunter for 4FC(who at some point even had a Rapier) and Stealth Assasin and Storm Spirit for Next.Kz, pay attention to the fantastic job from the supports from both squads throughout the game. Especially 4FC's Sandking and his positioning, as well as Tidehunter and Windrunner for Next.Kz, who were important factors for Next.Kz's win.
-Highlights of the game: between minutes 31 to 35, Next.KZ were behind 28-21 kill wise, but the fight that followed enabled them to catch up. Specifically, Next.Kz's Storm Spirit zips in, followed by a Riki Smoke Screen, and a perfectly executed Tide Ravage that disabled 4FC's Sandking Epicenter, which led to a 3-1 fight in favor of Next.KZ and the middle tier 1 tower as well.
-44 minutes in, Next.Kz while under smoke of deceit and Storm Spirit's newly purchased Sheepstick, wanted to bait 4FC to fight via using Riki as bait, under 4FC's tier 2 top tower. In the engagement that followed, the element of surprise of the Sheepstick purchased by Storm Spirit played an important role, and the fight ended with a 4-3 win for the Kazakh side, in an amazing team fight by both sides.

Number 2:GosuLeague Qualifier VIII Sweden Keita vs mTw Europe
(VOD)


Look out for...
-The fast ganks imposed by Keita's Sandking and Venomancer roaming Bottom and Middle lane throught the early game, which left plenty of space for their Invoker to farm and eventually get ahead from SyndereN's Shadow Shaman in the middle lane.
-Funzii's 4-man blackhole, especially in minute 13, and his blackholes in the 33rd and 42nd minute mark. His effectiveness kept mTw in game and gave them a fighting chance.
-Smoke ganks from Keita throught the early and mid game, effectively smoking in their own territory away from mTw's observer wards.
-Action packed game, with lots of team fights stretching players to their limits.
-Highlight of the game, between the 33rd and 35th minutes, clashes follow one another just outside the Roshan pit, one of the most breathaking clashes of the qualifiers, with 3 buy backs, immense combination of ultimates and of course the loot, The Aegis of the Imortal.

Number 1: GosuLeague Qualifier VIII Denmark Quantic vs Keita Sweden
(VOD)


Look out for...
-Quantic's and Keita's closing picks, Sven and Tinker respectively.
-Quantic's aggressive tri-lane on bottom, supported by a Teleporting Prophet, earning them first blood and a 4-1 advantage 2 minutes in.
-The constant action, killing and movement wise, on all lanes due to the global pressence of Prophet Teleports for Quantic and Invoker's Sun Strikes for Keita.
-Miggel's Prophet performance and Niqua's Tinker making huge plays throughout the game.
-Highlights of the game: 7-9 minutes in, Keita engage Quantic at their bottom tier 1 tower. Invoker Sunstrike and Tinker March of the Machines earn them three kills, while Quantic's Windrunner replies with a double. Prophet and Shadow Shaman gives chase to the fleeing low hp Tinker, who baits them in a wild fashion while Leshrac comes for support. The result is two more kills in favor of Keita, making the scoreboard 13-9, while at the time Keita were behind kill-wise in the game.
36-39 Minutes in while Keita is knocking Quantic's door, trying to rush their barracks, back and forth nuking action from both sides, with Keita finding the opening with Sand King's Epicenter initiation earning them a kill and the barracks for the loss of Invoker.
