I want to know if this is the case so I don't waste my time watching hour games at TI4 that are already over at minute 5.
Idk where this is going but no. You seem to watched the wrong games lol .. i have seen so many games where a team lose all lanes but win the game .. it quite happens a lot ..
but to answer your question it sort of can be predicted through the draft but still too many variables to predict the game.. don't worry you will have a great time watching TI4 .. i am not sure if you will understand what is happening if you don't play a lot of dota or watch tons of them ..
Ok thanks man. And yeah I can't really understand too much in draft except basic counter pick and basic lineups so I just skip those parts XD. Hopefully I get to watch some good TI4 games.
"Unfortunately, due to The International rules, during games, he [Goblak] will not be allowed to be near the team"
I was wondering if they didn't change the rule, with may teams getting coaches before international now. Alliance with Winter, Fnatic wit Xcalibur, Na'Vi Goblak. I guess they just want the strategic help between games.
e: Does Astral Spirit + travels need fixing? I don't think it's too op, it's a cool interaction. Beastmaster hawk seems much more op with travels, for example.
Goblak comes up with weird shit, I've never seem him as one of the best drafters however.
Innovators maybe, but puppey is the far superior drafter in terms of figuring out how to counter and negate opponents strengths. And that's more of what I'd think a coach would be helpful for.
But I guess it helps to have someone who will go through replays and relay information.
Huh, you didn't have Na´Vi as 2nd already? Thought everyone did.
of course they will be top 2
every TI has always been about which team will qualify to beat navi in the grand finals.
Seriously though this time i don't really see navi making it to the top 2. They were the next teamt to alliance last year that would take the aegis, This year they don't seem to like that form. Especially with the entire scene being holy competitive nowadays.
yo is there any better feeling than stacking with a bro and running roughshod through the entire teams collective assholes my friend started playing way after me so our games together are usually terrible, but now he's at the point where he can do sicknasty things all on his lonesome given the appropriate early game
