Finally Dota 2’s first major tournament in 2019, Chongqing Major has finished with the title of Team Secret as the first winner.
Even though it’s over, it still seems to remember fresh in this tournament some moments that are hard to forget!
1. Evil Geniuses The Conqueror of the Chinese Team
Some matches in Chongqing Major do offer interesting actions. But it seems that the Evil Geniuses got its own place. How not, Evil Geniuses managed to slaughter all Chinese team representatives in this tournament! Great isn’t it?
China itself is known as a country that has a strong Chinese team. Even so, it seems that this is not a barrier for SumaiL and friends. Evil Geniuses defeated Team Aster in the group stage, and embarrassed Vici Gaming, EHOME, and PSG. LGD in the lower bracket with only one defeat.
2. Incidents of Food Poisoning
Although it has a variety of grandeur stage and also various matches that are very interesting. It turned out that the major tournament this time was also tainted by something unpleasant. This was after the news that Shadow appeared, the standing of Miracle in Team Liquid food poisoning and had to be rushed to the hospital.
In addition there is also Solo, a player from Virtus.pro who is reportedly ill and has been replaced by his coach for a while, but apparently his condition has returned to fit.
3. The Champion The International 6 and 7 Fierce Games
StarLadder as the event organizer of Chongqing Major seems to want to make a special memory at the major this time. They gave a showmatch that brought together the champions of The International 6 and 7 for the first time.
Team Liquid and Wings Gaming play the game with the All Random Deathmatch mode for this showmatch. The All Random Deathmatch is when playing with random hero every respawn and there are certain kill limits (40 or 45) and teams that reach the first 0 or Ancient destroyed will be considered defeated.
The end result? Wings Gaming won the match against Team Liquid. But whatever the outcome of this match is only limited to entertainment, besides Wings Gaming has just played together again.
4. Position of the Big Three Identical with the Kuala Lumpur Major
If you notice at a glance, maybe you think there is nothing interesting with the top three in the Chongqing Major event. But if you compare with the position of the top three of the Kuala Lumpur Major, you can see the top three positions from these two major are indeed the same.
Team Secret, Virtus.pro and Evil Geniuses are the three teams that continue to decorate major events so far, namely Kuala Lumpur and Chongqing Major.
Will this mean that the dominance of the 3 teams continues to this day? Or will everything change when there is momentum for the team that is on fire?
Well, that was a few moments that we managed to summarize, apart from the bad side that happened to the Chonging Major.
We hope that more competition like this will be held with better variations, of course! So that Dota 2 esports activists continue to get entertainment.
