So, a bunch of heroes that don't go mid anymore lol. (doom, tiny, alch... okay alch goes mid these days but I don't think sniper can really stand in spray so...)

Broodmother crushes OD if she lasthits well until Soul Ring. He can't deal with Spiderlings and Soul Ring supports your Spiderling spam entirely.

DK is an OK matchup for him.

No alliance at EMS final, says due to "time constraints". Also no Rox due to passports (same as starladder).

Kind of a dull line-up to be honest.

Well, the nice thing about having him mid is that he is almost always in range to spam shrapnel on the other tower, even if he is losing the lane. That skill is awesome.

I'd say sniper vs spectre. A lot of melee heroes are pretty good at assisting ganks, and a lot of low armor ones have some sort of strong stun. I guess spectre still has a slow...but shes such a weak laning hero (1v1) that I can't think of anyone else worse.

I was gonna say something more along the lines of "well a 4 team LAN finals is OK I guess"

I hope the brackets don't randomly screw over the reasonable teams.

They should have participated in the EU cups earlier then, either way the lineup looks quite weak, meh.

EG usually does well at dreamhack (not that this is dreamhack, but Lan's in general). I'd give them a bigger chance than Mouz.

And I'm the token anti-American team guy.

I don't think EG is an underdog in this tournament. I wouldn't say there are really any favorites either.

But yes, I hate your freedom. Growing up in Saudi Arabia they thought me that in school.

He still free-farms, mana or not.

Nyx is good against OD later, but I don't think under any circumstance I'd call it an advantageous lane.

Fuck that matchup.

Is coming to lane with a 20 damage advantage not good enough?



...I've lost the matchup before.

It might have been something about being ganked 3 times. Not sure. I blame the sniper. He pretty much just sat right clicking me, with a 90% headshot proc ratio.

irrefutable proof - http://dotabuff.com/matches/69180400



Yeah but you lost mid to an ES as OD before. Granted the ES was ARTEEZY!! HOLY SHIT!! So maybe that game is invalid.


praise be to the most high, rtz.

I wasn't drunk this game.

Also ground pound doesn't cost much mana apparently.


I'm just making fun, I love you comeh. Nobody can win vs Rtz mid on any hero except maybe yajirobefromDC in a SF mirror. If you wanna make fun of me back, remember when weppas smoke ganked me like 3x in 5 minutes?

i don't have words guys... wait, you're both terrible :p

Again, my analogy is this.

Being drunk and losing to ES mid as OD is kind of like accidentally sleeping with that ugly girl at the bar. You normally would never have done it if you were drunk, but weird things happen.

Well there are 4 pro teams and 4 amateur teams, basically.

I'm not really interested in arguing the semantics of the 4 amateur teams being "sponsored" or whatever, the point is that there are 2 distinct tiers of team in these finals
