Team Spirit drafted well on their last head-to-head match.
They secured Outworld Destroyer as their position two hero in that game while EPG countered this pick by drafting Anti-Mage.
However, Team Spirit once again picked Sladar into Anti-Mage because Anti-Mage would be melted down by Sladar in few seconds before 30-minute mark of the game.
