eSports The International 2022 Main Event Final Weekend (October 28 - 30) MATUMBAMAN's Last Ride

I held off on making this topic because few of you care. But they had a new format this year, the final games get their own weekend (probably a good change) making it easier to digest, probably easier on the players as well.

 

This year the final four teams consist of 3 European teams and 1 Chinese team. Team Liquid and Secret, while considered good teams, have fought their way from last chance qualifiers (they did not do well enough in the season to get an invite to TI) all the way to the final weekend which is pretty special. Team Secret has the distinction of having Puppey on their team, the first TI winner and has been to every TI. While Team Liquid has Matumbaman a former TI winner (TI7) who says he will be retiring after this year's TI.

 

Meanwhile Aster and Tundra also while strong teams, seemed like unlikely choices to make it to the final four but both are looking strong, Tundra in particular. Games will start after everyone's bedtime since it is in Singapore but you can always watch the VOD later.

Pretty big news for all you JK Simmons fans

Matumbaman really cemented his legacy.

 

Spoiler

Would've liked to see him reach the finals instead of seeing Secret get swept by Tundra for the third time that tournament, but well played from the Mudgolems.

I could go either way. I think out of all the teams I like Reso the most so was happy to see them get another shot at it even if the other team was an unstoppable force.
