He's a pubstomper though, he beats uncoordinated teams. But overall he's nowhere near 6.79 Kaolin/Brood or 6.78(?) Spirit Breaker or even 6.76(?) Drow Ranger. | ||

It places an enormous coordination burden on the other team. Five random people need to simultaneously decide to attack it, ignore it or run, and if they pick different things they just straight-up lose the teamfight. That kind of decisionmaking is nearly impossible for pubs. Spirits are strong, but I don't think they're too strong. They at least only give 1.5/5 of your heroes a hard time. | ||

if your decent enough with this dumb bird, you will not only win the offlane but dominate the 1v2 against almost every hero out there | ||

Another chapter in the passive-aggressive BTS remarks towards joinDOTA. #drama Both being dumb, but at the end of the day I hate how Tobi and Capitalist pretend they know something about the Chinese teams, or even worse - when they explicitly state they know nothing. I don't think it takes away too much of your time to, say, research/click links about the teams and watch a replay or two. I mean, it's your job. If a lawyer like me working 12 hrs a day can watch Dota, so can they. | ||

Out of all the criticisms you could do, that seems the least valid. | ||

Tobi will introduce a topic then ask his former pro partner a question, the pro will answer, and then Tobi will offer his own opinion if there's time. If not, he moves on to the current thing in the match. Aysee more often than not will give his thoughts, then ask his partner. So he'll interrupt himself to do play by play on something then finish his thought, which puts his partner in the position of talking while processing new information. The sequencing also makes it sound like Aysee is talking more than he really is. Topic -> question -> answer -> opinion -> action is much more streamlined than topic -> opinion -> question -> action -> answer. | ||
