But you're right who am I kidding here.
I feel like the team is putting him on a pedestal by having him play mid/carry.
I feel like he'd develop more as a player if he was on pos. 3-5 and put outside his comfort zone--but that would kill their immediate results and given how TI centric everyone is (and how quickly teams switch players anyway), teams only care about immediate results right now.

Also I am not sure Fear is the best to learn from when it comes to anger, have you watched him stream? Dude gets pretty vile

just reading this makes me angry
Both tend to be really chill on stream and talk about what they are doing, both are not affiliated with a big brand, both are pretty well liked in the community, both are of decent but not highest level skill.
But then again I don't know a lot about either's background so why does that make you angry?
Liquid was going to get a Dota 2 team regardless of the new sponsorship. There's just nothing out there right now (unless the HTC sponsorship can help them get Secret).
I mean curse was the front runner for secret at one point, but then curse the website brand wanted to get away from curse the esports brand, so it was already a possibility, and another big name sponsor can't hurt.
