T minus 4hours to TI4, GET HYPED!!!!!
(probably would be like 1 hour to TI4 when i finished this lol writing in workplace is like some ninja training)


A:
Best fcking duo supports on earth and their excellent itemization from them is top3 on earth. As soon as s4 drafted well and able to perform accordingly then ended up in top4 shouldn't be a problem. Did i forget to mention these guys are professional rats.


Arrow:
Probably should just treat ti4 as a free trip to seattle.
(sorry for being mean lol)


c9:
Sing's itemization is still not up there (and some questionable skill builds as well), like please think and play the hero according to the game please. EE and bone7 problematic tempo management (and also itemization on bone7), same thing to that professional supportive core player, PLD is still the best player in team but as soon as he didn't perform well (not always his fault, partly due to draft etc) c9 gets into big problem frequently.

all in all, best of luck and hope they realize that playing dota is not about proving something to the world, it is about winning (and then you get to prove that you are good, not the other way around).


DK:
My hate on ice3 is fairly low now seeing that he toned down his selfishness quite alot but lamn/mmy still baffles me from time to time, B-god has been buying ward/cour at the start of the game. WUT.

I want to see B-god to save the world again. Together with mushi best carry and best mid in the universe i expect alot from you.

EG:
This time i wont be annoyed by 'USA USA' during the finals...truly solid team can easily end up in top3. Well, probably prove that murica lacks of real good support player rofl. Very impressive from them support duo.

Empire:
No opinion.

It almost comes down to whether 820's coaching/training for them to work or not. I wouldn't be surprised to see them actually do well since it is like many BO1s if they came out with some magical strategy and people cant figure it out soon enough.



Navi:
My hatred on kuroky toned down ALOT this year, but funnily enough they have been perform rather underwhelmingly. IMO i feel like dendi needs to step up his game (play less pubs please jesus) and wake up please puppey.

Hope puppey+goblak gives good magic show.


Navi.US:
Whatever lol. Only care about korok and i strongly dislike 1437.


Mouz:
Reduce your cheesiness then they might be able to get into top8, you guys need to know when to go in for the kill/win.

NB:
That last train to TI4(i keep saying that and they actually made it), gogo murder everyone, top3 contender for sure.

Titan:
You guys can be like Orange last year. best of luck man!!

VG:
My flair, mainly because of rotk. BEST OF FCKING LUCK. Show them how to be a king please.

Wild card:
CIS will win obviously.

i expect that either they will get rolled over and do averagely (win some lose some) so surprise me liquid!! It is about 10% chance that they can make it out of the wild card finals unless they are able to play like when they were in TI3, there were some seriously good performance near the end of it.


Don't care about VP or MVP (would be funny to see MVP gets through rofl).

i passed out near the end of last night, great to see liquid pulled it off

i said that they have 10% to come out of the group lol, under the assumption that CIS actually can play like how they played in qualifier (they didnt, they played like shit, absolute shit last night) while liquid showed some strong plays (thanks for the ez rares).


So now for liquid, give or take, top10 or top8, i would be pleasantly surprised to see them go further than top6. Best of luck liquid!!

nice write-up but I feel that you really should have mentioned bulldog as well in the alliance part. his plays vs. c9 in ESL One were fucking huge. he's the reason they won game 2 tbh.

I think Arrow's capable of making upsets. ddz is incredibly skilled player, he can do wonders.

They are a young team though, nerves and little experience might be the breaking point for the team.

by having bracer and gg branches in his inventory without buying a single ward (maybe just at the start) 30mins into the game in TI3.

lol. He makes plays, but the number of towers and map control he's given up from feeding cancels all of that out imo

murica lacks of real good support player.

need to import more support players honestly

i used to think pld was amazing, he seemed like he could do so much with almost no farm, but nowadays it just feels like he is out of position and just feeding alot of the time trying to make plays.

EE and PLD have both been on drafting at one time or another. Used to be PLD always but last couple of weeks Envy has been drafting in all the C9 games. I know even bone7 drafted for short periods a few months ago.

If the trend from last couple of weeks continues, then envy will still be drafting during ti. though I'm sure all discuss the picks together and have some input on it
You mean I just write stuff here and other people can see it?

since you are allowed to reply with a 0 base low IQ and EQ post, i surely be allowed to go with 'stfu noob'. I used to like you until everything you said turned out to be wrong (or 80% wrong of all times). You talk like as if you have some insider news etc but you dont. I wont even bother to dig out some shitty post of yours in some LR thread, typical 'lol you people dont know shit' during some drafting phase and then the team you said proceed to lose. Speaking of which, you are the one who publicly flame the shit out of everyone except your 'friends' (na players etc) without good reasons.

My half-assed posts in LR threads flame hard and compliment hard on stuffs that i watch, I have always been truthful to what I have seen. I welcome whoever chill out or take a piss here but only for friendly banter purposes. Highly toxic, lack of manners, uneducated, cancer inducing post is strictly forbidden here.

Don't be like that man CIS didnt play like how they played in qualifier. I can only know so much, why would they stop practicing by thinking that they wont be able to make it to seattle -_-

True that. But basically if he is having a good game = team wins, if he is not, chances is that team will likely to lose anyway (50/50 chance depends on opponent makes mistakes).

Black^ covered it in his HotBid interview. There were 3 weeks when they split up and weren't at the teamhouse and weren't practicing. Then, when they were denied by the US Embassy, they were despondent and demotivated for about 2 more weeks. According to Black^ he's headed back to Germany for a month after TI to see how the reshuffle goes...I hope he winds up with a good team.

That is the most retarded thing i have ever heard. Kuroky is such a crazy good support player, probably the best player in general on NaVi with Puppey.

Have you seen that how badly he played support back then TI3 early stage (badly as in how he literally forced #4 puppey enig to buy all the wards and shit, all he focused was on how to make flashy plays), dig out the LR threads and see how many people flamed the shit out of him. He has become a top class support since then (the process of fighting their way back up to grand finals really shaped him quite well and then he has been performing consistently since). Bonus point since he can use oldschool heroes very well (like lion).

People need to think and reread anything that is written by me, dont jump on immediately because you misunderstood what i said. Alternatively, stop being a retard for a moment when you read what i wrote, get it?

or you could stop assuming your stone-age dota IQ is high enough for you to understand KuroKy's play instead of writing off his itemization as selfishness

see, i am a fair man. Like i am extremely fair to the point that i am willing to doubt myself for a second that i might actually have stone-aged IQ (what does that even fcking mean, do you even know how IQ is measured, but whatever I assume we are on the same context here), but then the chances of you being a braindead kuroky hardcore fan is astronomically higher than the chances of me having brain problem.

Try again. Try harder.

Certain item choices at the beginning of the game are definitely decided upon by the players in general. While it might seem like bad support play from KKY or even MMY/Lanm to not buy wards (and have Burning do so instead), it kinda looks to me like a decision made by whoever is calling the shots in-game (Puppey for Navi, and either Lanm or Burning for DK).

I recall a game where MMY was actually pinging out to Burning where to place the wards, so it's def. something DK has decided to do occasionally, and I don't think you should fault support players for being "greedy" in that case. It's just how they decided to distribute the burden at the beginning of the game, for whatever reason.
