Only 4 spots remain in in the Enter the Storm Cup #2 final event.
Qualifier #7 and #8 were the first qualifiers to be played since the changes of the new patch, and we are beginning to see some interest trends. For one, the double warrior team composition is getting more and more popular. High damage ranged assassins have a hard time dealing with large HP pools and mass CC, and Team Dignitas proved this by going a double warrior lineup in nearly every one of their games. The final game that won them the qualifier featured four melee heroes, three Blood for Bloods, two Hardened Shields and Rehgar's Ancestral Healing - talk about unkillable.
For the second time this weekend, Nihilum came extremely close to qualifying and I hope to see them again next week. Their performance versus MadCorps showed off their ability to magnify small advantages to large ones. If they hope to qualify next week that is the strength they need to focus on.
Now that the dust has settled, Team Dignitas has made it to our list of qualifying teams:
