Holy shit there are some bullshit nominees in the gg.net Awards vote.

Just some things that are.. just not right

Most disappointing team: Where is EG?
Best carry: Why is Era in the poll options? Why is TC not even in the honorable mentions?
Best solo mid: Why is a player that loses his lane in 90% of his matches in the poll options?
Best offlaner: Why the hell is RotK there when he has sucked ass for most of the year and has only been doing well since he joined VG? Why the fuck is Yao not in the poll options and how is Bulba not in the honorable mentions over Jessievash whoever that is.

Well he's fire so maybe it's symbolism of fire burning away imperfections and leaving the smooth core or something.

I feel like I'm not getting the hang of Legion Commander.

I tried Drums into Armlet
I tried Armlet into Blink

and both seem rather inefficient, or I still can't finish off my opponent before the timer runs out, even with help.

Rushing Blink works, but I still have the trouble of finishing off my opponent in time and, in reality, with blink dagger; I feel the need to initiate (or stay back and just steal hte kill, in which case; do I really need blink dagger?)

Is Shadow Blade a better alternative?

dude you cant expect to do X fixed build on X hero and expect to do well every game...especially a hero like LC is highly dependent to the tempo of the game, basically you get a 'new' game after you got your dagger in every other game, think of him as a less item dependent version of Axe (most of the time all LC needs is a dagger, axe can get whatever) but he is even more dependent to the flow of your game/combos with your team mates.

General route would be bracer/drum+bkb/AC/Heart asap, armlet if your team needed that damage output. Lothar is for fun ninja duel build (go with a good ganker with you).

feel free to use mine :D

Really ? TC is probably the WORST carry in the scene right now, he doesn't even play like a pro.

I'm glad I was able to entertain you then. He deserves to be in that list just as much or more so than Era, Fear (who hasn't even played carry in most of EG's matches) and Meracle. I guess people like 2009 are just clueless though

LOL No, TC looks good only when he has free farm. As soon as he gets contested he becomes the absolute worst. All the other carries at least showed some big plays and not stuff like "durr look at how good i am with my 6 slotted gyro/am with free farm". Everybody improved, he didn't, in fact I would say that now he is probably worse than he was before.

Second, who is the guy that almost always loses his lane ? H4nn1 ? Oke buddy, go watch his games another time.

Third, did you really just play the "fanboy" card ? lmfao

Right, and Fnatic did well at TI3, came 2nd at Dreamleague, 2nd at Fragbite, 2nd at EMS and qualified for D2L playoff's in the past couple of months alone.
Don't get me wrong, you're right in saying that because it's for the whole of 2013 there are a lot of people/teams missing from the nominee's, but Fnatic have definitely had a good end to the year and shouldn't be discounted at all.

Yeah I know that. Obviously with each scenario, things flex and the priority of items change. Naturally.

I'm just reconsidering the priority of Blink Dagger, maybe I just need better coordination with allies.

One, TC finds a more farm when is team is losing than most others. He's also one of the strongest laners out of all the carry players. Source: other carry players and statistics. Liquid as a whole hasn't been doing well in their recent matches. Doesn't mean he's the worst carry of 2013. Just ridiculous tbh. I have watched every Liquid match of 2013, and not just on and off like you probably have. I know what I'm talking about even if I'm going to be biased towards the team.

Two, yes, that is H4nni. He loses in cs by whide margins to pretty much everyone unless he has a really advantageous matchup and even then he doesn't do as well as he should. His midgame play is good though Disclaimer: I only watch Fnatic matches against big teams, not Starladder qualifiers and stuff like that. I hardly care how he does against mid players that aren't on a top team.

Third, if you're saying H4nni isn't the weakest laner among the mid players on top teams, obviously you're watching through some pretty special glasses. His ganking and midgame farm/global ganking and spell usage is strong though. But he's just not a strong laner, which is a pretty big part of "being the world's best mid player" which is what this vote is about.

Yeah and I'm not discounting Fnatic as a team, I never did. This collection of players is one of the best Dota teams, emphasis on 'team' and not on 'players'. Ofcourse all these players are good but not even close to top 5 world material in any of their roles (though there's n0tail wisp...). I bash H4nni's performance in the lane a lot but I like the players on the team and I like watching the team play over pretty much every other team. I think my criticism of his laning is easily justified and I think even H4nni himself would agree it is his weak point. But they're good enough as a team for it not to matter all that much.

TC is downright horrible as a carry.

There really isn't much left to be said. Among all Tier1/2 teams, can you name a carry player who has less impact?

The only person that comes to mind is Jeyo before he was pushed to support. Now that was a player that truly could not carry. Outside of that one perfect Gyro game.
