What do you think ? i still play as 4/5 position support since my team/friend rarely play support. They always go carry or mid.

It's almost impossible to make the DPS transition off 4th position farm simply because by that point in the game, single damage items are not impactful. on a hero that already does not have DPS stats. It's generally a consideration for a mid Windrunner that did exceptionally well in lane, or an offlane Windrunner that crushed a 1v2 super hard.

Again, the key strength of that hero is flexibility. If you tie yourself down to a single item build or way of playing the hero, it'll very often feel like you're not doing anything because Windrunner is not strong enough in any one particular area to make focusing on that strong if it's not the right choice for the game.

If anyone has information or knowledge of the whereabouts of Slesh, described as an average height Asian male who may play video games, please contact us immediately.

I mean there are heroes that can make the 4th position->carry transition in pubgames, it's just that I think it's rarer for Windrunner to be in a position to do so compared to something like, say, Sven or Alchemist.

Well he was replaced by Synd when Synd was out of the tournament in TI2.

To be honest Slesh was pretty bad anyway, and he really wasn't much of an active caster outside of TI.

Yeah at TI2 Slesh was ment to cocast with Tobi and he replaced him with Synd (without talking to him about it and Slesh apparently wasnt compensated).

He was on a BTS cast 2 or so weeks ago.

Much more solid than *some* of their casters.

Yeah, that is a while ago and apparently Slesh has closed that chapter. Well soon after he disappeared from the scene anyway. That's why I thought it was funny that it was mentioned

Slesh just seemed like a sub-draskyl level caster. Knew very little about what the current state of the scene was because he wasn't really casting and he had good mechanics knowledge (but not as good as Draskyl).

Not to mention monotonous and boring. Although it could have been handled better, I'm glad Synd took over at TI2.

Slesh was apparently casting WPC today funny enough. Just read it in the LR thread.

Apparently not. I bet the ticket buyers have to buy a compendium separately this year, unlike last.

But on a serious note, I'm also getting impatient about the compendium. That's the only thing I'll get for TI this year. Won't be able to watch games, so at least make some predictions, so I can cry myself to sleep when DK gets eliminated and I fail my exams afterwards.

If one of DK/Na'Vi/C9/EG don't win I'll be a bit sad. VG/[A] are the only wrenches in that plan I think

Eh, I'd think Empire has a better chance of winning than C9 or Alliance, given only current performance.

And Na'Vi's only really in the running because everyone expects them to perform twice as well at on the big stage. Which, granted, they tend to do.
Average means I'm better than half of you.
