Three rapiers and yet I fell asleep.

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

Sleight of fists cooldown shouldn't be active until ember lands back on his feet.

How about he's no longer invulnerable to AoE damage/stuns during slight?

It's a shame the game turned into that as it was exciting early on.

 

[shira]

rip

Ban heroes team doesn't play
Play long siege in time rating tiebreaker
Get 3 rapiers
Win base race vs lycan

iG dota

 

[KingKong]

Game took so long NaVi just needs to beat iG quicker to be in winners bracket

e: assuming they could just stall vs roxkis since its the last game

 

[Madouu]

Lich pick up didn't work out too well at the end, they should've defended their invoker slightly better early on but at the same time they didn't have the heroes for it without sacrificing lycan's farm.

IG aegis steal was pretty big and they played pretty very well overall.

I'm pretty satisfied with all of today's games so far, they've been really entertaining.

 

[Heavy's Sandvich]

Nah. That would be too sensible.

I think he should land at a random place.

 

[Zeth]

I'm starved for hats. When can we get a new hat patch?

lich got them fast exp top including first blood and a decent mek timing but yeah i think they could've gone with something that would have more lockdown or better at protecting/counter gank mid maybe

This right here. this so much

 

[Technosteve]

reduce ember's movement speed bam balanced

 

[Randdalf]

Invoker is Na'Vi's if iG don't ban it.

 

[Ultimatum]

ember is balanced, it's just that it pretty much counters current lame ass meta (necro treant bullshit)

 

[Technosteve]

skeleton king is core

 

[manfestival]

skeleton king is core

who is skeleton king?

 

[spk]

Not taking damage from killing Necro units is balanced?

 

[Madouu]

who is skeleton king?

some guy that had more than one active skill

 

[Demoli]

Hero has a haste rune, runs away from 0 stuns and a slow.

"What a player"

What are the best alchemist sets?

puppey is feeding like a champ.

 

[Tworak]

lol navi. time to ditch tourney and practice vs bots

 

[The M.O.B]

I am not well versed in which commentators are considered good but this girl and guy on Starladder EN are awful. They have no roles. They both are constantly trying to figure out what players will do and they always end up wrong.

Play-by-play announcer and a color commentator, its that simple.

:/

The dude is the stats person for BTS, I'm assuming they're trying to give LD and Merlini a break

 

[aeolist]

i like kpoptosis

and sheever is doing a lot better here than she usually does

 

[Guru-Guru]

They are bad casters. Switching to Russian stream.

 

[Tworak]

yeh. sometimes sheever is just unbearable odd game knowledge mixed with confusing words

 

[Finalow]

NaVi, you ok?

 

[shira]

Navi vs MVP.

Navi is going to troll the shit out of them.

Sheever solo casts 99% of the time. The other guy is the stats guy who I'm not sure really ever casts.

It makes sense it might be a little awkward at first.

I like their banter between games though.

 

[Randdalf]

EG made iG look like MVP Phoenix earlier. I'm hoping for a DK-EG BO5 final, both teams look far better than anyone else here right now.

Same, hoping for DK EG FIGHTING

 

[cuevas. PhD.]

Sheever is a terrible caster.

 

[Lactose_Intolerant]

rtz 3-0 at lans incoming, maybe...

 

[Finalow]

rat doto incoming. nice bans, NaVi.

 

[Anuxinamoon]

Guys I'm scared of this Navi draft, and not in a good way


EDIT: And I was hoping for funnik on potm and ember on xboct

oh god please swap :<

 

[Finalow]

Guys I'm scared of this Navi draft, and not in a good way

they're going to lose, I believe.

322 doto 2 stronk.

 

[Technosteve]

What changed for Mirana that turned her from never being picked to being a top pick? I've been play her for a while and I haven't seen what they changed to her skill to be such a consistent pick this patch.

Nothing.

Just a trend.

The star storm change that makes it always hit an alive unit helped, but she just became perceived as good.

I definitely think it started at MLG Columbus with SingSing's amazing Mirana plays.

 

[Technosteve]

everyone wants to be singsing, they need to do the invoker potm combo. Arrow Sunstrike combo is so good.

 

[bbd23]

LAG in LAN

Wot

 

[ViviOggi]

This pause lol

 

[Randdalf]

LAG in LAN

Wot

They're not playing on LAN, otherwise Dota TV wouldn't work.

 

[Heavy's Sandvich]

Ember is balanced.

Patch please.

 

[Guru-Guru]

Funn1k looking good on the ember spirit this time around.

 

[Nirvana]

Guys I'm scared of this Navi draft, and not in a good way

You might want to amend that statement now! Funn1k is crushing.

 

[Randdalf]

By the way, isn't this the exact same lineup of heroes that iG picked against Rox?

edit: Ah, no, forgot about the OD.

 

[Heavy's Sandvich]

I think Funnik is incredible, like genuinely one of the best offlaners in the world.

But if he has a pocket Ember as well, makes me think Ember might be a bit too easy to do well with.

 

[manfestival]

Why do trolls use twitch views to attempt to show "game superiority" ?
