actually this is a valid concern, single elim would be fine if top8 would get DPC points+money, but with the way it is top4 is just a little random to achieve

over 60% of DPC points remain to be earned and it's hard to see na'vi earning many of them.

meanwhile literally this tournament VGJ.T could overtake them

I think na'vi are a very poor bet to make TI

Also looks like you have 2 decks in Artifact. One will probably be heroes and spells and the other items. You probably draw from the regular deck and then buy stuff from the item deck.

Also, the rng comes from the way the heroes and creeps attack in the lanes. Apparently in the individual lanes the attacks are distributed randomly.


The item deck is apparently random, not constructed.
The lane attacks aren't distributed completely randomly, units attack one of the units in front of them in the lane. (The particular unit in front of them that gets attacked, if there are multiple, is chosen randomly).

isn't that what the arrow at the top of the card indicates? the target of the attack? i don't think anything's random here because you can't really have multiple targets. sven, in fact, has three arrows to represent his cleave

word on the street is that something other than RNG may play at least some small role in artifact, so it can't be too similar to topdeckmoba.

haha no coincidence that haro complained about omni and then it just happens eh


lmao - I also don't wanna be seen as just complaining or something. It's not like I lost to omni and made that post in a fit of rage or something. Those are just my thoughts on the hero itself

liquids heroes needed to snowball to do any kind of damage, combine that with little to no disable means that eg had a very easy game

Side note: VGJ.Thunder is running Omni in a more traditional role having him not max his aura and instead maxing repel for lycan and getting guardian greaves first - thus proving me wrong

I am humbled by RotK god

Interesting stuff
Also i'm always surprised everytime i remember just how fucking massive pokémon is as a franchise (Gaben brings it up in the video)
From the Ghastly Eyrie I can see to the ends of the world, and from this vantage point I declare with utter certainty that this one is in the bag!
