Drop Sumail and pick up Dendi. He speaks English right

 

[SecretMoblin]

what a healthy variety of games


whiners can keep fuming

 

[Sgt.Pepper]

OMFG TWITCH CRASHED AS SOON THE WALL APPEARED

 

[scarybore]

Short final game which is a shame, but Secret played it so well that I can't find room to complain.

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

Also TI3 was best TI and [A] way of playing was the most revolutionary thing this game has ever seen, give me rat every day of the week, the tension was amazing.

I'll agree with this, the Alliance rat games were the only games in which my heart was actually pounding and I had no idea what was going to happen in the next minute, gold difference stopped mastering and it all depended on how composed you are and how well you strategize.

 

[Wonderboy91]

Secret win, sumail gets trashed. What a perfect tournament.

 

[call_kotaku]

fuck this patch bring back the comeback mechanic

 

[LiQuid!]

How fucking disastrous was that draft that landed Gyro, QoP and Dirge on the same team. GG Peter you moron.

 

[evlcookie]

Fuck yeaaaaaa!

2nd lan win boys!

 

[Sticky Fingers]

welp 14 minutes gg.

 

[Sigismundo]

What a stomp.

 

[pompidu]

Lone druid is garbage tier pick. Game was over when that trash was drafted.

Don't think snowballing is really the problem with this game, problem is the hero pool is widly unbalanced. You can throw out like half the hereos in this game.

 

[poppedcollar69]

s4 put on some damn pants

 

[shira]

Was the draft longer than the game?

 

[theRizzle]

13 min GG? lol

I honestly don't enjoy watching these short games nearly as much as a longer one. For me, 40-60 mins is a perfect length for a game.

 

[W1SSY]

Lone Druid picked twice in The Summit and lost both times in matches that were not even close.

 

[Haunted]

13 minutes oh my

 

[SilentRacoon]

Congrats secret, road to dat TI5 championship.

This game was over in the draft screen for sure, lone druid pick came out of nowhere, what did they expected him to achieve against gyro and undying?

 

[iamblades]

Yeah i think the damage on rocket barrage is going to have to be nerfed if the cast point change stays.

Shits too stronk.

[Acinixys]

Buff STR carries pls Icefraud

Sick of this early game bullshit now

 

[KingKong]

Yeah so many of those games were incredible, it felt like Alliance was always in control and knew exactly the right time to attack or rosh. Remember that game against NaVi where they lost all their outer towers in like 20 minutes then went super defensive until they were strong enough to just outright win

 

[t0rment]

what a healthy variety of games


whiners can keep fuming

i agree. i mean, you can just watch one fight and you know who'll win, you don't even need to watch the game

 

[electricboogaloo]

fuck yeah europe doto masterrace! id love to see mason run his mouth again.

 

[Randdalf]

Hoping this week is a precedent for Team Secret TI5 champs!

 

[Acinixys]

Thanks for the

EG fanstraights

 

[Shorty11857]

So apparently Secret are invited to the Mars TV tournament, wonder if they were meant to say that

 

[aeolist]

Lone Druid picked twice in The Summit and lost both times in matches that were not even close.

not really a good stat when 90% of the games were hugely one-sided stomps

 

[Jadax]

13min gg

All the Secret haters in shock!

 

[Gav47]

Arteezy already mentioned it in a hotbid interview on day one so it must not be a secret.

Watching all this dota stopped me from finishing the witcher 2 for tomorrow

 

[dafinezt]

What a patch.

 

[Quesa]

s4 put on some damn pants

yeah those were wasted because that game

was no sweat

 

[Kard8p3]

Another Drow loss as I predicted lmao.

0% winrate

Ah just seemed weird considering C9 are the only announced team

 

[BeesEight]

Great games guys!

I think there was a conspiracy scheduling us against the EG vs Secret match though. At least I know what I'll be watching tonight.

Edit: Urf. Wrong thread.

 

[poppedcollar69]

[Cellbomber]

Yea it seems like any hero that requires farm or jungle is almost useless this patch. Picking them to be forced into early fights at tower pushes will just end up in deaths. It's rare you have time on hero's especially like doom or void.

I've yet to really see a team counter deathball this patch. Even before you could delay and counter it. Has that just not been figured out yet? I actually like push strategies but it seems extreme at the moment.
