The Top 10 200 IQ Plays in Esports

hey guys daniel rossen for the score Eastbourne we've all seen it the kind of play that blows your mind and makes you think how the hell did they come up with that well we wanted to celebrate the genius behind some of the smartest plays in eSports history so here are our top 10 200 IQ plays across all of eSports kicking off our list at number 10 is arguably the biggest brain goal in rocket league in history during the our LCS season 3 finals and our g-men tournament favorites flipside tactics in the upper bracket semi-final with the hopes of advancing to the winners finals the north american hopefuls pulled off one of the greatest fates in the game with garrett g slamming on the brakes causing post defenders to hilariously fly past them as they look for the ball meanwhile cuts ear the rotating defender is demoed by prior Byrne all in the matter of a second flip sides defense is dismantled letting Garrett literally put the ball in the net [Music] [Applause] at the number 9 spot on our list is a play that makes Starcraft look all too easy that's right it's Scarlett's incredible baneling detonation against bomber from Red Bull battlegrounds 2013 after a tense two games saw the series tied up at one apiece Scarlett took a bomber to a third map and once that third map was nearly mined out Scarlett saw an opportunity and seized it placing two banelings in the ground near bombers bio army bomber had no energy left to scan and with both players armies jockeying for position Scarlett faded the Korean with the left there this could be a bomber can't afford to scan so this Berto deferral they're huge they're just over to the right a little bit more bring them out beta is trying to be there's some Bailey cheer to reinforce that would give you what a game head starlet damn it a stralla small tough play at IEM Chicago 2018 was only a taste of the brilliance today as showed during their period of dominance which is why it lands in the number eight spot on our list down six rounds to fnatic in the semi finals a straw has clawed their way back to bring the game within one round after losing the vise while trying to take banana astralis faked and a site push saving just enough utility for be psyched mere seconds later they pulled off the perfect utility execute with quick work the straw Louis took the site push the game to ot and won the series this is an early rotation out of him but this might be what wins them the semi-final they set it up so nicely the crowd is behind them chuny let's go for Nats eight thirty five seconds it's gonna be a lot of Mallis all over the wall actually one of them might land dead on Crim's this could be the ticket for Australis these grenades could do all of the work for them three of them going over the wall one of the cysts one on creams everybody's catching fire - on 4jw and pro-life left and they know it as well JW trying to sleep JW Goes Down and it's 15 15 overtime here the semi finals coming in at the number 7 spot on our list is Canadian superstar sure for who showed the world that you can never relax on King's row don't believe us well let over explain why this 200 IQ big brain play is known as the merry-go-round where are you going oh this is so not cool chilly and small so he's fighting you we could sort of walk out what I'll try doing I think he's gonna either and he's gonna either switch to widow-makers oh this the merry-go-round cuz that makes me laugh speed up being short ball switches to the Widowmaker just the right time close it drops down today the shooting range for Lane robits the Canadian sometimes the best laid plans file but not this one coming into the number six spot is the play that defined what a 200 IQ play meant in league of legends early days that's right it's the expect during I am cut a V say 2013 the League of Legends community was treated to these storied rivalry between fnatic and SK gaming fnatic had their backs against the wall in a last-ditch effort to end the game expect a used his Kassadin to sneak into the base and take care of business himself just gonna follow straight up to all those super minions in the base you can see is going in that is definitely up called the Nexus he's trying to do it the beta star has defended interface the Nexus is [Applause] [Applause] [Music] taking the number five spot on our list is the decisions that gave oh gee they're back to back TOS otherwise known as the gyro diffusal built during the International 9og were once again making a run filled with dominant and galaxy brain plays but it was their gyro diffusal built on Thompson that really put the world on notice oh gee realized during the mid game that no matter what they did they simply couldn't deal with miracles bristle back so rather than simply wait it out until the next game Thompson uses big brain to buy it abusable essentially making bristle back a giant sponge with no man it's probably gonna be one of the Ferengi to have said position that aggressively look at that bill by Thaksin diffusal gyrocopter quite one defuse and I'm gonna join the fray finally there we have it America's Man it's pretty much entirely gone by toxins folks to look to engage 88 these technologies into the car by they're even taunting they toss him to the TRACON in 2013 we were treated to one of the greatest TI finals in history and the play that defined this series takes a number 4 spot on our list yes it's the million dollar dream coil in the TI 3 grand finals both Alliance and Navi were deadlocked the series went to game 5 and at the 30 minute mark na'vi were significantly ahead and Alliance couldn't afford to take teamfights in a last-ditch effort to win Alliance win for a final push just as na'vi were knocking on their door seeing that alliance were getting far in their base na'vi had to retreat to defense that is until s4 laid down some dream coils which stuns several Navi members and cancelled their tepees meaning that all Navi could do was sit back and watch as Alliance destroyed their hopes and dreams of a second TI title they don't have enough damage they don't have he canceled the beat cookie Bobby's not gonna be back in the face he's gotta be kidding me but no boots of travel but it's fun now if they go over the throne it could be game footage down Alliance are doing it they need a little more stuff all in jeopardy that's a glyph it could be their last stand they wandered around they're gonna do it with ti3 the L is just one 1.4 million dollars during international strange happiness at the number three spot we have the ex-cons mark on csgo history gambits run at the krakow major was already defying expectations and their final series against immortals was no exception on the back of a losing round gambit looked to be on their back foot but doja and his big brain didn't back down the Russian locked in a chi grenade in the corner of a sight leaving steel and lukas with such little health all they could do was hear the bomb beep to that nation their deaths left immortals with such little money that gambit could run away with the game the major and a graffiti for good measure immortals now feeling like they know what to do two challenges banana position the gambit has sent even more firepower that's bring more cause it's huge in the corner blamed on Gosia with the don't that's so smart that's one of the sickest I did ever they plans in their faces and then they both died that's so smart like this is as well it up says that's incredible during the 2016 world semi-finals pray made his mark on a league of Legends history which is why his legendary arrow takes the runner-up spot on our list the rocks Tigers had just lost the opener to an absolute banger of a series and with the opportunity to tie the series prey fired a galaxy brain arrow that single-handedly won his team the game midlane alive because top and hip has been killed and they even got the pickoff on bank rocks doesn't actually have to stop pushing right now they can delay the recalls [Applause] stop how much more can be done three kid trying to burn it down [Applause] series [Applause] and forth and back again taking the top spot on our list is a 200 IQ play that you may not have noticed but still leaves us for yup it's Ana's last second item cell from TI 8 now this isn't the first time you've seen this play top one of our lists and we're about to remind you why in the grand finals of TI a o G were losing to PSG LGD battling and onna had to farm to give the underdog some semblance of a hope in the fight but he was caught and rather than die for nothing he sold some of his items so he would have just enough money for buyback to stay in the fight with honor being able to stay alive oh gee were able to take the fight to LGD and complete their insane comeback it was arguably the defining and most understated moment of their miraculous Ti win these ancients right now Ana FY just giving so much information for the team he's got eyes on him get the punch of the wrong target for the snowball possible catch Ana Ana he's in trouble the blood runs on is correct he's got the magic back up in a second but Kenny really plays way over this one until the Thompson Thompson being saved by Derrick shags of the dinner I returned to did whatever that the core g kb boat he's trying to commit trying to do about nine of you silenced by the blow-dried but the ancient is warning that Max is out there gonna be able to find each other's 3d over G painting the age [Applause] to a game by well that's
