Great blog, it's always nice to read what my favorite players have to say

I'm really interested to see what team adapts faster to this patch, and to see different heroes! GO LIQUID!

I would also love to get a pennant =)

I think you missed talking about kunkka since he was getting more play even before the patch.

I would love a pennant.

I think the patch was good overall. Slight buffs to a lot of not so popular heroes, and nerfs to the god-tier heroes.It should make for some exciting dota in the coming months!

Good luck at Dreamhack, really liked your plays since SK in HoN. I was at Dreamhack in summer 2010 and 2011 and it was amazing. I think Necro with Aghanims and Slardars bash changed to physical seems really interesting.
Would love a pennant

Have you seen how much damage nether blast does to towers? Its insane. 3 blasts and a tower is dead. Its pretty bonkers and I cant wait to see teams use him to push.

You look like shit korok - hit the sack as soon as you land. Also, the fish in sweden is pretty awesome.

Great patch! I feel like PA is coming close to just being naturally incredible, and invoker still desperately needs a slight damage increase either through levels or BAD.

Good luck at DH! TL hwaiting <3

Is your and TC's change of roles permanent or is it just something you are trying out to give you more flexibility as a team?

Also pennant would be awesome <3

Great post, Steven!

I will start with my thought about you and TC changing positions. I really think that the old tactic was better - TC 1 with you mid, with occasional draft dependent switch. Now with him being mid and you in the 1 position, things are not going as well as intended. Its not that you are bad carry, or TC bad mid, you are both AWESOME players, but your personalities makes you fit better for mid role and TC for the carry one. Korok being Korok is like Dendi being Dendi - it instantly gives you an advantage mid, just the way mid heroes should be played and the types of mid heroes just suits you best.
While TC's amazing lane control and just the way his plays just fit perfect for the carry role - it makes enemy offlaner to struggle not only with last hits but also with experience, which is huge deal, also he farms agressive but kind of safe at the same time and this is very very important for a carry i think.

Its not that i am not enjoying the new things you are trying - i just think the other way is more efficient and because of that - better for the team.

Speaking of the patch i agree with many of the statements in this post, but i think that after the str buff Vengeful Spirit now has a potential for effective mid role. Imagine what the rescaled lvl 2 swap with force staff can do with the early team fights in lets say 10 mins in to the game. The hero will stil be squishy but those 100 hp more for lvl 10 vengeful spirit are not to be underestimated. She is a hero that can do lots of damage very fast, has a reliable disable and gives you positional advantage, vision and - armor on your enemy.

This post is already getting way too long, so i wont bore you more!

I wish you guys at least a final in Dream Hack! Cant wait to watch the games, and if you manage to play your game, and if you guys don't make many mechanical or drafting mistakes you will be there for sure!

Good luck!

I have yet to see the full potential drafting scale post-patch. I think Goblak comes pretty near the full understanding of all changes but even there I feel there is quite some potential with situational tri-core lineups featuring Medusa f.e.

As far as DH goes: GO erm.. well, all? Yes, go all! I think the clear winner here are the viewers, the games are gonna be amazing with all those top notch teams competing!

Go liquid! Much luck in Dh. I don't know how i feel about the changes. Lots of big nerfs to some and none to others.
