Evil Genius(EG) becomes the second North American Team to grab a spot in The International after beating Immortals in a convincing fashion. EG managed to 2 - 0 Immortals in a best of 3 series for the TI8 spot in the NA Qualifiers.

EG is back?! 

Is EG back to it's TI5 champions form? 

EG has been known to dominate the dota 2 scene in the past years but have been sub-par in the recent season. With the fresh lineup that consists of  Artour "Arteezy" Babaev,  Syed "Sumail" Hassan,  Gustav "s4" Magnusson,  Andreas "Cr1t-" Nielsen and  Tal "Fly" Aizik they are surely showing signs of it. 

Self proclaimed King Sumail showd dominance in both games against Immortals which is a great sign going to TI8. The whole team also, although had a bit of trouble in the group stages seemed to find their groove that led them to win both games with relative ease.

Arteezy "curse" continues?

Will Arteezy's "curse" continue on to TI8? This "curse" has been a long meme in the Dota 2 Pro Scene wherein wherever Arteezy joins that team is assured to NOT win the biggest Dota 2 tournament in the world. 

Let's wait and see!
