I wonder how many times qoqjva has to feed and play terribly for people to get off his hype train.

Sort of feel like that for team tinker generally.

 

[shira]

Oh god I can't stand this dreamleague cast.

Shane:I don't know anything about phoenix

Dad: Me neither

Shane: What should he do

Dad: I don't know

 

[Heavy's Sandvich]

Eeeeeeeeeesports.

That's why it's only ever going to be a fantasy.

dont buy fucking mek on phoenix

I like Pajkatt
Sing is good when mid
EGM is amazing at times

But they can't draft for shit and Qojqva and Bulba are always mediocre

dont buy fucking mek on phoenix

Sing can't play Phoenix

 

[Dreams-Visions]

Sing can't play Phoenix

he never played it correctly in pubs either.

 

[NormalFish]

I think bulba and qojqva seem worse than they are because the meta isn't really in their favour, and their drafts never play to their strengths. That isn't to say they don't play poorly, but it's not totally their fault.

bulba is okay sometimes

sing cant offlane

phoenix isnt hard sing plz

edit sing wtf are you doing

 

[Wok]

Where yo BKB at man.

Edit: Oh there it is, whoops. Should still be earlier.

Talk about earlier... Sometimes I stop farming to avoid feeding. Minutes 16 to 32 below.

Yeah that's mostly what I was basing it on, he looks lost on it and hates playing it.

Bulba is a decent offlaner but a meh support IMO. I think Qojqva only did that well on Liquid because their entire gameplan was based around him. TT really need a good 6th position support like Akke or PPD.

In about 5 minutes, we have the GRAND FINAL of the Giant Bomb Community Tournament. I will be casting. The game will be not one, but two of GAF's own:

YOLO (stevewinwood stack)
vs
Freakinchair's Fraud Squad (Ellen Pudge stack)

I will be casting this game, it will be a best of 3. Best of luck to both teams.

edit sing wtf are you doing

the fact that he continues to dive in and nova without confirming the attack speed debuff on at least a couple of them just shows how little understanding he has on the hero. and it's not like he's *never* played Phoenix. he's just never learned how to play it correctly, it seems. pretty embarrassing.

edit: holy fuckin shit, sing. you're awful

edit: virtusthrow!

I definitely agree with this. Their players all want farm (except EGM) and it rarely works out.

pls don't

 

[Demoli]

WOOOOO

Great commentary there Shane.

Fighting game level of "ooooh"

It's been 5 mins, where are the games?

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

EGM is actually also a really greedy support, he's the one that forced Akke to be dirt poor all the time because he bought all the support items. They definitely need a support that's experienced and is content with zero farm.

Loda/Pajkatt
Sing
Bulldog/Pajkatt

Waiting on teammates from both teams.

They also need to expand their hero pool/make starts based on the heroes they are good with like sings Troll.

EGM's greedy, but he used to play a pretty competent 5 back in alliance with certain drafts. He definitely prefers to play with farm though, obviously.

**Every time I see the dreamleague scoreboard I get bummed about not seeing any more march games.

think their hero pools are fine, but they don't draft well at all.

I actually like the idea of Sing on Alliance from a fan perspective.

That said, I hold no illusions about the quality of TT anymore. The individual players isn't even the biggest problem from what I've seen. They don't seem to have a leader that can keep them focused on their gameplan. The biggest sign of this is that they waste smokes constantly.

 

[dave is ok]

I'll fill in guys

These Dota players are divas nowadays

I think they have plenty of potential as a team, but it'll take quite a bit of playstyle change. A roster swap or two would do wonders for them.

Oh, also something I noticed is that EGM and Bulba are an awful support duo. They're almost always by themselves, never roaming as a duo or communicating really well. I constantly see EGM afk farming while he's kind of needed elsewhere, he really needs an experienced leader type to string him along.

Sheever casually playing Hearthstone whilst 'anaylsis' is going on.

Gotta love aui

 

[Heavy's Sandvich]

Is there a reason why they don't show highlights of the previous match and talk about key parts?
