I didn't get a chance to see the earlier matches, but I think Cloud9 could be a sleeper to win it. I was very impressed by Watson in the qualifiers and the rest of the team is playing incredibly well too.

And I really love seeing teams that ignore the meta and just do what they think is strongest. I think that makes the most fun and interesting Dota, and blindly following the meta makes it really boring. I'm cheering for them most, personally.

Cloud9 has definitely been my sleeper hit so far. Picking stuff like Bane, Nyx and Winter Wyvern has been great to see and worked really well for them. I've also been impressed with watson, but their supports have been absolutely insane. Fishman has been terrorising teams with wisdom rune plays and Kataomi has looked fantastic. He had a clinic on Tinker today, basically showing everyone what Spirit tried (but failed) to pull off yesterday.
