VP wins at ASUS Spring 2008

Rather than the typical Ukraine WG and Russian Fede- VP competing at ASUS, Sweden SK DotA has joined them this season. There are 31 teams competing for around $6000 in Moscow, Russia. Team DoTA has also made a return, an old team that used to dominate the Russian scene and even won ASUS once. The team consists of; Russian Fede- FocusIRE, Russian Fede- Admiration, Russian Fede- DoTA[gosu], Russian Fede- say_gogogo_plz and Russian Fede-GET-LOST.

Many of these matches are being streamed live on GGTV, so just check the GG Game channel listings for games. Many have been waiting to see more action from Virtus.Pro as they have disappeared from a few online competitions. This time it'll be even more exciting to watch as they will be competing against former teammates, Russian Fede- ARS-ART on SK and Russian Fede- Admiration on DoTA.

SK beat them in the Group Stages, so I woudlnt conclude anything from this result.

Edit: Team DoTA (Nostalgia) didnt even classified to the playoffs, but it was because they had to play against VP and WG (1st and 2nd) in their group, and only two teams per group could advance to the next stage. I cant wait to see them playing in big tourneys again. Go Team DoTA

I'm hoping admir can go back to VP.
He's truly one of the best, sad to see Admir gone and yeah NS too.

SK feels the wrath of Russian Dota scene. As it seems Russian teams are very strong. I saw some of SK replays of their Group stages and It seemed like they had it pretty hard even though they won their groups. Like SK heroes were the thing that mainly played a role to win the game. But it's nice to see them place Top 4.

Every player was taking turn using QOP. You could it as QOP was walking with different heroes all the time, the first person to use QOP was light when they were pushing bottom, then when they were pushing mid and LOH vs farming it was Jolie, then vigoss took a turn, NS and then it was pretty much mixed up. In the replay different player had the hero selected at different times as well.

It is very difficult to play against VP now. If last time it was expected that Vigoss will carry and the opponents could focus him down and have a chance, then now it can be vigoss, it can be LoH. If the opponents focus one down, the other farms up. And in the meantime NS is warding, Jolie and blow are ganking all over the map. It isn't always that way but most of the time it is.
Why do cows wear bells? Cos their horns don't work.

I think the main role for vigoss is as a ganker. Even in old VP formation, vigoss more often to play ganker, jolie is the one who often play carry. And yes, since now VP has LoH, an opponent should keep pushes these guys from farming, meanwhile vigoss has so much time to express his aggressiveness... or should I say 'ganking'... :)

yup agree with you.... vigoss is a ganker not a lover(WTF).. nah just kidding...
when those 4 are ganking LoH is happily farming.. so they have carry in late game...

thats why VP are hard opponent

I thought Jolie plays early game heroes or gankers like Zeus or Lina most of the time, right? Vigoss plays Lina or Tiny too, or sometimes back in the old days Venge with Admir's imba Sven.

yea..LoH happily farming while the other 4 just gank and the best part is that the 4 can still overcome the opponent's 5.

its just nice to see that Light´s farming makes vp stronger. cause now they have a world class late gamer .........Furthermore blow´s and jolie´s ganking is as imba as smile´s and admir´s ganking was......and u dont have to comment vigoss and ns skill. vigoss the best player overall and ns the best supporter and one of the best ganger.

game 1 was silly, zeus at bottom had zero chance of any other result. luna was undisturbed in jungling, and sk lina farmed it up to quickly become extremely mobile. top jolie did extremely well to survive and still become very significant.

wonder why wg didnt switch a lane after zeus got raped for the umpteenth time
