So considering they're in all the major tournaments and EGM is still playing with them, Team Tinker is here to stay.

Sing Sing, Bulba, Qojkva, EGM and Pajkatt is really underwhelming though. Thats a downgrade for like everyone except Pajkatt

bulba downgrades every team hes on

I just tried a practice mid match against a normal bot and got REKKKKKKKKT. Let's do this!

Was it viper bot?

It's no shame losing to viper bot.

I was SF vs. Bane, so like it wasn't possible to kill him anyways. I just wanted to brush up on SF's last hitting mechanics since 1. I know they're notoriously bad, 2. I rarely play that hero and 3. the few times I've played him have been shit shows.

 

[LiQuid!]

Would this be a good time to get an invite to the GAF guild?

I think that was the team I saw get absolutely crushed every game I saw them in. They were nice guys but it probably wasn't fair for them with what they were up against in the tournament.

From the steam accounts they had that I tried to scout them on, they averaged a little under 100 hours in the game.

So how come Huskar isn't popular, like, at all? Dude fits the current meta of "find weakness in enemy team, blow hole wide open and steamroll to victory" quite well I find. Of course, if he has a slow start he's pretty much useless, but you can say that about a lot of heroes.

Because lots of fights happen before 6 and he's terrible until 6 and it's fairly simple to focus him down.

Because a lot of the most popular heroes care little about Huskar high magic red when they will kill him with high physical damage, and his base armor is terrible, just like his AGI gain.

I could tell, when I casted them they had the wonkiest drafts made a ton of mistakes newer players make. I think they even had Pudge and Riki bans. Pudge can be scary if you know Dendi or someone is on the other team, but 90% of the time not worth banning.

I mean this not as offense of course, as they are all new to the game. Just shows the GB tournament needs a lower division for teams like this so they actually stand a fighting chance and have some fun.

 

[Madouu]

A bit late but gg Guidos, to be honest I didn't expect us to do that well so I'm proud of my team

now to get utterly destroyed by gaf.

 

[shira]

razzer, vamlock, tusr, and Zero have made it to the midtier semifinals

 

[Messiah]

How can I ever enjoy dota without inkls/madouu cast again? :sad:

Thanks. Dunno why I didn't check liquipedia in the first place.

But now I can't find the ticket for the tournament. Did they remove it this year? I can't even see the event in the watch section in the client.

It's actually not in-client yet.

I think the organizers said there were some technical issues, and they would have it in as soon as possible.

I'm waiting as well. The prodoto withdrawal is real.

We're trying to figure that out. We can't get in contact with any of the GB admins either. Blackmoore is offline but he told me about the match about two hours ago.

Witch Doctor I think you can make a good argument for.

BONK BONK BONK LOOK AT IT GO

It's harder to find heroes that don't counter Meepo.

One of my deaths was to Shaman ward trap followed by global. One of them was to CK's pull+stun+global. They had a pretty major hate on for me. Really glad that WD didn't try for Aghs.
