C9 is stalling, while EG gets a team full of BKB's
??? play offlane clock, win pubs
They have some really odd brackets.
http://wiki.teamliquid.net/dota2/MLG_T.K.O._Tournament/America
8 Teams in a one game Round Robin, into a 5 Teams two game Round Robin, into a 3 Team three game Round Robin (Going on now), then the BO5 finals.
C9 needs to take this next game, or they are going to have some real trouble getting into the finals. Though Worst case, they come in 3rd and get $4,500.
Wait, there are three games? Bo5? Or just play three games for the hell of it? No audio on my stream since I'm watching at work

but that SF tho
Well he got Luna this game. Of course it was a first pick, so now EG can just counterpick it.
you don't have to counterpick against a luna who doesn't get bkb
Indeed he does.
I just played against the biggest piece of shit team. Think I'm done with dota for a couple days.
This team pushed our shit in, we had two people right off the bat call "mid or feed" and they both did. All T2s down within 15 minutes. They took one set of rax.
Guess what the piece of shit midas sniper did? He sits right outside our fountain, for literally eight minutes, and they do nothing but kill us as we spawn. Eight fucking minutes of this while he continued to buy shit from our shop. They dont touch the rax, they dont move, they just type "u mad noobs" and stuff like that and farm the fountain. It was insufferable.

Why is it that most of the sociopaths you see in Dota 2 are Sniper players?
4500 is copper?
I'm like pebble tier then
Worst tier is obvs Thulium tier
For me it seems to be sniper, PA, and Void players that I remember being extra scumbaggy
At least you're good at something
You're good at getting exceptionally hilarious teammates in solo ranked CM, that has to count for something.
Seems more like a Linken's game to me

when shit like that happens to me, just mute, report and minimize dota for 5-10 minutes and browse the net. these motherfuckers never want to end the game and dunno why.
Yeah maybe linken's would have helped though.
I'm sure he would have less deaths, also he would have been able to do things like using satanic, last team fight of the game (and not just that) he couldn't even use it because of lack of bkb.
come on, batrider or not luna needed bkb in that game.
envy is probably the only one skipping bkb on luna, #roadtoTI4.
I think it's probably the other way around, for me it seems like his reluctance of getting BKBs on a lot of heroes shows that his whole approach to playing carry is wrong in many games.
In the games cloud9 loses it seems like it's attributable to envy in a majority of the cases. There's simply not any way for his team mates to set up a proper game plan around a carry who has clearly gone mad.
Not to mention his willingness to play heroes which he has no idea on how to play, them 90% mana ball lightnings.
It just makes cloud9 look really bad when they lose, but the scene overall seem to be really unstable, you see a lot of weird results.
edit: Actually, I have no idea who's doing the drafting, but it's pretty bad as well.
fun (and also truth) fact: envy is the worst player on C9. worst player shouldn't play carry.
I mean the story of every fight c9 lost was that envy got lassoed and permastunned to death. If he couldn't get off manta to confuse the bat how was he ever gonna bkb in time?
