Na`Vi defeat DTS to claim $3,000 at Techlabs

In what was meant to be a best of three showmatch eventually fell down to a best of one affair with scheduling issues - Na`Vi take an easy $3,000 check home after a thirty minute victory over PGG's DTS on Sunday.

The game started out with DTS showing early signs of life in terms of how they carried their ganks and organized pushes on Na`Vi's towers. Despite having two heroes normally banned out by Na`Vi (Invoker and Dark Seer), DTS lacked the presence of burst damage to take out Na`Vi's heroes early on.

Furthermore, with Radiant cautiously positioning themselves far apart to prevent them from getting caught together by Enigma and Dark Seer, the Russian team were seemingly unable to get the kill lead they desperately needed to drag mid game in their favor and hopefully force a base push before Anti-Mage farmed his items.







The experience of the four time world champion shone through eventually as Na`Vi outplayed DTS in their own game. After a team fight that went horribly for DTS at 28 minutes, an Ultra Kill on XBOCT's Anti-Mage gave Na`Vi the reason to push for barracks and DTS to call "GG" only seconds later.

With this win, Na`Vi find themselves $3,000 richer and playing phenomenal Dota 2 even at the expense of Puppey's absence (who had to miss the showmatch and be stood in for by Darer's God due to visa issues).
