I can't think of one tournament that doesn't use CM. | ||

Also, there is some potential for some small captains draft or w/e the name is when it's released (the mode that's RD with bans). | ||

Because I just played a game where things weren't going so well, and we had one abandoner, but everyone else stayed and played with the mentality "it ain't over until the ancient falls" and we had some moments where we could turn the game around. You can post that kind of stuff here, the reason there isn't a thread like that is because people would use it to brag. Also i'd love to see a tournament based on CD, would test who the best drafter really is. And who could make out a good team from the limited pool. | ||

There's still a strategic draft, but CD focuses more on pure skill from the players rather than predetermined strategies. I think CD could be a good counterpoint to CM, one day (I still love CM). (EDIT: Learn to read, Shai. Some people started discussing CD a few posts before mine  ) | ||

I watched it too. EG were 5 man pub stomping with Silencer, OD, Wisp, CK, and Bounty Hunter. OD + Silencer stole so much mana even the Puck could only use like 3 spells haha. It was just a joke game on Fear's stream. | ||

I was impressed by his invoker, the guy apparently play a lot of him but never when he's on his team. His most used heroes are all heroes he almost never play on the team (except Meepo, he play also Puck, Invoker, Tinker and Morph). Make you wonder how big his hero pool must be. | ||

Make you wonder how big his hero pool must be. I actually see him playing Invoker on his stream quite often, and you are right, he is really good. In fact, he was one of the best IF not THE BEST HoN player. I'm kinda sad that he plays the support role in Fnatic mostly because I think that his skills are a lot higher than his teammates ^^ . | ||
