Exciting times are ahead for the Dota 2 fans around the world.
The first Major of the year is just around the corner.
North America has two teams fighting for the ESL One Stockholm Major title,Evil GeniusesandTSM.FTX.
At the last two Majors and the TI10, EG have always been eliminated by a Chinese team.
Many expected or hoped that EGs overall playstyle would change with JerAxs arrival.
He is known as one of the most aggressive position 4 supports.
He is like a dog chasing a ball, but you cant really see the ball.
You just try run after the dog who is running after the ball.
But having to play from position 5 now with EG, JerAx had to change his game approach.
Through the first and second DPC Tours, JerAxs most played heroes are Bane, Enchantress and Pugna.
Perhaps the only heroes that allow him to set the tempo now are Death Prophet and Weaver.
Terrorblade, the NA staple
However, nothing screams NA Dota louder than Terrorblade.
Interesting fact, EG would never go and ban the TB themselves.
TB is his second most played hero with 3 matches and also a 100%.
Arteezy has always been the win condition for EG.
Constantly finishing top 3 or reaching grand finals speaks volumes about how good the team is.
However, for a full successful story, they need a Major and a TI victory.
One of EGs recent arch enemies are coming from their own region.
TSM.FTX line-up is perhaps the best example of the current scene for hard work and tremendous grind paying off.
Some have just a few LANs in their hands and even fewer played on international LANs.
However, his TI attendance was separated by 4 years.
