I think we also lost that game if I remember correctly.

Backdoors are a fairly common strat and one of the areas competitive hots has seen the most improvement. You get some real weird matches where if the core is exposed 1 team is deliberately not showing so the other team can't commit, while the other team is constantly backing and cancelling it last second only to start backing again. Looks hilarious.
That's not even speaking of sending 1 hero, someone unkillable like Muradin, just to interrupt the backing while the rest destroys the core.
Illidan is special because he can single handedly kill a core. I guess Zagara could be another hero that can solo a core.

Dignitas vs Fnatic is live right now, huge implications between the two best EU teams

Oh lord when Bakery and Jay split up to cap both altars with only Breez remaining. Comedy gold.
I was too busy laughing at how much bizarre it was to play dps Lili to notice but hey as long as I still manage to miss cursed bullets at half range I still have ways to go anyway.

Dignitas is next leveling Fnatic today. The funny part is if Dig 3-0s this series, Liquid would have been 1st seed if only they hadn't lost yesterday.

This season maybe but they played her a couple times as an Illidan counter. Last time at Blizzcon against MVP Black IIRC.
edit: It was against Ballistix @Blizzcon and MVP Black @GCWC
Yep, this draft hasn't worked at all for them./ Although to be fair they've been behind the entire game because their early game map rotation sucked. Dehaka being caught out several times.

Dig giving Fnatic all they'd ever want in draft.
No clue, lol, you literally left party and logged out without saying a word. Kio thought he made you mad but I assumed you were just too drunk to stay awake.
EDIT: Also, Milly did you see that one of the SWTOR expansions is free with Amazon/Twitch Prime?

wtf was that boss call. It wouldn't even have done shit. It's 6 minutes in
It was beyond dumb. They don't even have any heroes who are that good at murdering bosses!
EDIT: they literally threw the entire game with that one call.

Everything about it was wrong, death timers are like 12 seconds and it was the boss closer to their core and they split off arthas.
They deserve to get reverse sweeped.

Yep agreed. I don't know what has happened. They utterly dominated game 1 and 2 and then from that p[point on wards have been wandering around the map solo like they can't be hurt. The number of times the tanks have been picked off by the entirety of fnatic jumping them is ridiculous.,
EDIT: WTF? They get a kill, and then don't realise Snitch has had to go back to defend? They've totally fallen apart here. WTF happened to the team that won games 1 and 2?

The odd draft in game 3 was a weird misstep but then they gave fnatic double globals in game 4 on braxis.

When 2 of the top 3 choke the same weekend.
Consistency. Just the wrong kind.

what's the story with Begenius.
Very nice turnaround fnatic! That boss call by dig at like 6 minutes was so greedy, though the steal and curse combo by fnatic was played perfectly to punish. Really really hard to recover after that one. Hoping Gale Force Tempo is even half the series this and the MVP Black / L5 ones were!

It didn't matter how Fnatic played that, Dignitas handed them both on a silver platter.
They sent Arthas to get the curse while they were getting boss and then called him back w/o getting the curse.
If they'd done it any other way (try to get curse then boss, get boss then curse) they could have walked away w/ probably just losing the advantage from the kills they got.
At least my team won in France.

Macron won the election. I'm not french but as a european first I was rooting for him as he appears strongly committed to the EU.
I need to stop watching sports, like Danny Glover in Lethal Weapon, I too am getting too old for this shit.
Anyway, sup in HotS? I didnt play much today, and what I did was pretty bad, it wasnt a good day. QM was rough this morning. Still chipping away at Kael up to 10.

Oh, yeah, that makes sense. Agreed. I thought you were referring to some sport or tournament and I didn't know what the reference was.
ooh, I can't wait to see that. I'm still getting caught up on yesterday's matches.
Dehaka is sort of hilarious on maps like Cursed Hollow. I push my lane in hard enough for a couple people to try and scare me off and as soon as the tribute spawns I'm instantly there and capturing it while everyone else is trying to get there. I imagine it gets a lot less good when people are actually decent at the game though.
Nah, he's still real good there in pro play!

but for the opposite reason staying in lane to the last moment and then join the fight.

Butcher is a hyper carry who needs a good team that can CC for him. He's also great at catching targets by himself post 10. But yeah he has a ramp up, and if you're not careful as him you'll get destroyed.

Aka divine shielding a retreating Equinox instead of 2 of his teammates in the middle of the other team...
All of GFE spreading their damage around willy nilly. Maybe don't bet your hair if you're gonna play like that.

She actually appeared pretty great last game, GFE just sucked.
checked before this game 36%
Yea it really does. And it's like not even a hard concept to understand. Of course she works with multiple blinds on your team, or against an illidan or all AA team.... but just as generic damage to round out your comp? I'm like why? There's multiple better options.

Yeah but that's exactly what GFE picked her on Towers for. Tempo had Zeratul and Greyman, AAs are a huge amount of their damage output and Fan made some decent plays. The Uther pick sucked.
