Last game of a bo3, 1.5 hours, six rapiers, LGD holding against mega-creeps, level 30s pretty much across the board and everyone all aghs'd and sharded up. Keep an eye out for KotL's Wind Waker saves on allies and enjoy the ludicrous team-fighting (also feel free to skip the first 45 minutes if you don't care about the buildup. Ultra-late is a whole different ball-game after all).
Series of the week for me was LGD vs Aster with game 3 being the highlight. 88 minutes of team fights, rapiers and pure action to finish off a fantastic series that upsets the balance in China! If you’re looking for something action packed that involves 2 lesser-known teams then definitely head over to SEA for Neon Vs 496. These 2 teams have been playing a lot of online competitions for months in which every occasion was fantastic. This series was no different with a lovely ultra-kill coming for the KOTL before the horn in game 2.
For me I had to go with Neon Esports vs 496 Gaming in the SEA DPC league. If you only have time for 1 game, watch game 3 between these two teams. Neon and 496 embody the SEA region mentality with non-stop fighting and this game was balls to the wall fighting from before the horn up until the ancient fell. Some insane records for broken and as a Neon fan boy, it brought a giant smile to my face!
My pick would be game two for Mudgolems vs Secret - a 70+ minute epic featuring a giant Wraith King stomping around over everybody with a giants ring. For Mudgolems to take a game off of Team Secret as well is an encouraging sign for the team, who have come into Division 1 as one of the favorites for relegation - that they can keep such cool heads in a long game against the best team in the world is a good thing, and I hope we can see much more from them.Additionally, Dan Offen has a new show, The DPC Show, summarizing the weeks action in all 6 regions, help by 6 analysts each focusing on one region. It can be found in video as well as audio format. Editors Note: The first week of DPC has been exemplary and going by the above comments, it is evident that two series; LGD vs. Aster and Neon Esports vs. 496 are definitely worth the watch.
