Five teams from Singapore have made it to Playday 4 of the eight edition of Meet Your Makers’ Prime Defending global DotA Allstars tournament. Our reporter, Alucard gives us an overview of what has happened to date.
Playday 2 saw the match between 
Zenith and 
CVN (Vietnam). In this game, Zenith drafted Phantom Lancer as one of their heroes, an unconventional pick in the competitive DotA scene. The reason behind Zenith picking PL could be that it would be a counter for Spectre, which is known to be imbalanced in the end game.
However, it was not to be so as Zenith controlled the game from start to end, maintaining a kills-death ratio of 2 to 1 against CVN. PL did not feature much in the game, instead farming most of the time. As Zenith was significantly richer than CVN, we could not see PL matching up against an equally well-farmed Spectre.
In other games featuring Singapore teams, GG[U] won 
F-sG (Malaysia), although F-sG complained about lag.
Team vZ* won against 
eLs (New Zealand). Though vZ* is not widely known, they have managed a win against a New Zealand team in their debut showing in MYM.
Team Impreza continued their impressive winning streak by beating 
Pd (Philippines). Although Impreza were losing in the first 20 minutes of the game, after the reload they came back strongly and won the game.
There was no show for Team DsD and Gamers Inc. in their matches, resulting in walkovers for Arch and NSP.
On the other hand, team stfu` won a walkover over WLAO. stfu` waited for them on IRC until play day 2 was over, but WLAO still did not show, leading MYM admin Underminer to award the win to stfu`.
Zenith eliminated GG[U] in Playday 3, and they will face E | NsP while stfu` will face [WLK] next in Playday 4. (Click here to view qualifier brackets)
Correction: The Editor made an error adding ScY to the list of Singapore teams in Playday 4 at the end of the article. They are Indonesian. Not Alucard’s mistake! Thanks to our reader Beanie for pointing out the error.
Correction: eLs is a New Zealand team, not an Australian team. Thanks to our reader takaki for pointing out the error.
