At least the losses are quick and we are learning fast.

Not sure why Volvo thinks playing vs 4.7k and other 4k players should give them +33, but okay. TMM probably is super whack or something.

I like how in the first game the guy with 3430 gets the same gain as the guy with 4751. Apparently 1300 pts doesn't matter all that much.

This actually might be one of the highest quality matches I've ever been a part of.

I feel like that Doom lost them the game.

Yeah I dunno, it's weird. He certainly seems underfarmed but he was hitting hard as fuck. He 1v1 killed the Void near the end of the game and we didn't understand how.

Actually, now that I look at it, that Troll did pretty awful. Vlads->SnY is not exactly ideal...

So Newbee will gg out of TI4 grand finals but not ESL qualifiers?

 

[call_kotaku]

Man, I have no idea how to play ember late game, especially if the rest of my team isn't going to be carrying. Early on I can land the chains well enough and the flame guard damage/protection is pretty substantial so I can wreck all the lanes when I'm between level 7 and 16, but once it gets past that point I don't know what to do if the rest of my team can't capitalize on the advantage.

I have double battlefury and daedalus, but my sleight damage can't carry the fight alone, and if I don't bounce back to a remnant right away I'll get instantly disabled and focused. I can wave clear but not team fight which sucks.

DROW DA GOD.

BLACK, MY LIEGE. YASS.

 

[bbd23]

newbee is lost without xiao8

 

[KingKong]

That was a really bad draft, maybe they picked another offlaner instead of carry by accident

 

[SteveWinwood]

rtz is also streaming the game so heads up on that

I was gonna head to sleep, but i'll stay up for RTZ commentating Newbee vs Vici.

What the fuck is this match? Seems like a pub.

Wait, never mind.

i dont understand dota anymore
in fact im sure i never did

 

[Haly]

Kind of sad that so many games recently have been better than TI4.

I blame the fact that everyone there decided to bust out the Razor/SWM and Deathpush meta at the same time, leaving no room to adjust and counter.

 

[tiltnkirby]

Gonna be honest, no one ever did.

hm this guys going to pick riki into my bh random...... i think its probably safe to call this one in the bag

new Vici is like cloud 9 but actually good

vEEgEE gaming

 

[Mohasus]

I always knew drow was secretly OP.

Drow Ranger
Matches played: 213
Winrate: 61.97%
KDA: 3.22

KDA is low because she is the only carry in the game with only single target dmg. Even void ends up buying a mael and doing some area damage.

 

[Artanisix]

Drow is so fucking good, I love that hero.

 

[Lotto]

Loving the new VG right now. This could finally be the team Black^ will have success in.

Edit: 3-0, Flawless victory

Will VG be next on the Newbee banlist, since they have 2 non-chinese players?

It feels weird seeing the "games you've spent/will spend 200 hours on" thread after playing dota 2 for a while. First reaction was "200 hours? Thats nothing," I forgot how some games only last like 10-ish hours.

 

[komplanen]

I love the tension of 4 minute Rosh in pub matches. My heart races every time even when I've never been contested at that time.

drow ranger is so good, she's my fave, i love her

i'm pretty sure gust is going to be nerfed to hell soon

So who here knows what Kunkka's role in a team actually is? I was under the impression he was an initiator, not a 'run into a team 1v5 with X on and get killed before you port yourself back' hero.

Interested to see what others say but I don't think he's a great initiator. Can do so with X and/or Torrent but Ghost Ship is awful when used for initiation and it annoys the shit out of me when teammates tell me to use it that way.
