Huzzah! The International 2 is here! Up first is the Play-In best of 5 match between Mouz and World Elite. Here's a summary and some various stats for your enjoyment. I'll start with some tables and finish with some graphs and charts.

As you see more of these charts, one thing you'll notice about Venomancer is the INSANE amount of Slows he provides. In this 27 minute game he provided nearly 5 minutes worth of slows. SingSing controlled the runes very well (including a nifty moment where he used Telekinesis to move Weaver to impassable terrain. Black ( and SingSing to a lesser extent) did more damage than any 2 of WE's players combined.

The 27 minute GG makes a bit more sense when you see how Mouz was able to get many of their core items completed in the 20-25 minute time frame.

Yeah Finol, way to keep them on schedule.

Brewmaster had an awful farming game. In a battle of the safe lanes, Black dominated WE in creep kills.

 Once again, note the poor Brewmaster farm (running closer to the support Venomancer farm than the carries) and great Anti-Mage farm. The black line is 100% farming Effeciency. Dark Seer farmed very well from the hard lane.

Once again, the game was very close until the early 20 minute mark.
