Does Envy kiss his mother with that dirty mouth ;_;

ugh why would you make me think of EE kissing.
slurp slurp

I don't agree about EG right now, they seem really sloppy.

Good point, VG has been the most consistent team out of them all.

They had a couple bad games but for the most part, they are really above the majority. This new patch really punishes sloppiness, which is good.

early game sloppiness maybe

6.83c punish mid/late game sloppiness way way harder

Has Secret even lost a series? VG got stomped hard by Empire. Twice

I think its the drafts and the EG fanboy in me is saying theyre saving strats for the lower bracket final against Secret

Aye, you couldn't greedily tower dive for kills and just coasting off of momentum from the early game wasn't as viable a strategy - the comeback potential might have been a bit too strong, but in theory it meant that a team had to execute well up until the end of the game.

That said, 6.83 was a lot more stressful to play since I was so focused on optimization and efficiency of hitting the creeps. 6.84 certainly feels like an "easier" patch, not in terms of wins but in terms of effort to execute.

EE is pure

 

[Kard8p3]

i hope ee gets the help he needs one day.

The worst cast for the best game.

nerfting bb golds would have been enough but all these gold changes, buffs for pushing heroes and new high ground support items are a tad bit overkill imo

but its still very early maybe everything will turn out fine like the Redbull finals

 

[Hazaro]

$350,000 compendium goal to mute Lumi

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

Sure, Secret are most consistent in 6.84 but I'm talking since TI4. VG have gotten a ton of good results.

 

[shira]

Mandarin lesson and doto, nice-ah

 

[W1SSY]

Where is english cast for Secret v VG?

 

[Artanisix]

Why did they decide, of all the possible games, for this one to be the lumi/china cast. FUCK

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

Good god what is going on

 

[Emerson]

whose idea was this lol

 

[Haly]

Visage B1 #justsekritthings

 

[bbd23]

Yea I just cant handle this

 

[Ikuu]

Never seen people getting this mad before lol. This went on for like 5 minutes.

 

[JC Sera]

One of things about the summit I really like is them doing translations for players

Your own twitch chat

 

[mastershake]

cast went full chinese

 

[evlcookie]

I don't mind the cast. It's nice hearing another language in between English.

 

[Lactose_Intolerant]

I don't mind the cast. It's nice hearing another language in between English.

Still better than hearing Envy suck up his own spittle ever 20 seconds.

 

[Artanisix]

EE has a lot of good things to say, I for one really like EE cast.

Chuan is fine, but he doesn't speak english, so it's a little awkward having to translate.

Lumi is just fucking awful.

 

[Hung_real]

Still better than hearing Envy suck up his own spittle ever 20 seconds.

speak for yourself

 

[call_kotaku]

is chinese commentary actually more informative than english dota commentary, or is chuan just more insightful?

 

[aeolist]

this cast is anti-hype

 

[JC Sera]

I don't mind the cast. It's nice hearing another language in between English.

same

I think what Chuan has to say is pretty insightful
I remember from the TI4 interviews, he can speak some english but is very uncomfortable with it

RTZ pretty shit at Leshrac, doesn't seem his hero

 

[Sianos]

nerfting bb golds would have been enough but all these gold changes, buffs for pushing heroes and new high ground support items are a tad bit overkill imo

Yeah it was a bit much of a swing the other way, but with a few tweaks I think early aggression can be kept viable but made less dominant.

On another note, I never resummoned my birds after getting aghs on Visage

 

[aeolist]

i take it back, this game is anti-hype

lumi still sucks though

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

EE has a lot of good things to say, I for one really like EE cast.

Chuan is fine, but he doesn't speak english, so it's a little awkward having to translate.

Lumi is just fucking awful.

Agreed all around. The problem with translating is that by the time Chuan is done talking and everything has been translated, something entirely different is going on and what he said isn't relevant anymore.

Would've been fine if he they just had him give some insight before or after games.

 

[call_kotaku]

So is Empire actually the best team in the West?
