Shows the lack of confidence they had in Aui then. Why was moving Fear to support a given? If this is about his arm, does anyone have a source where he has really said that he can't play core due to that? I've never seen it but people repeat that as an actual thing, so I assume it's coming from somewhere. Seems very strange to me considering the guy still plays pubs and often plays cores, I don't really see how it can be significantly less stress on the arm to play support on a team. | ||

Thorin reads reddit and regurgitates opinions to satisfy an echo chamber. There's nothing in there that's insightful, and I really wish he would stay out of dota2 stuff. | ||

That EG had what was considered the best team and then they changed it? That RTZ is a great player but bad team presence? That AUI is a better 4 than fear? That Universe looked godlike with EG but meh in secret? That not everyone can freely swap between roles and maintain their presence? That these two teams have some of the best talent, but that neither are meshing with their current player squads? That both still have the capacity to be great with more practice? | ||

But the EG lineup from TI5 didn't really have better results than the one after it overall, they "just" won the 2 biggest tournaments. Obviously those count the most but the lineup afterwards was hardly a disaster if you compare to pretty much any other team on the globe, though I'm sure they would have wanted to win a major. And I don't think Fear being a better 4 than Aui in the style they were running him post TI5 is even debatable. Aui had his specific style, but I think Fear was a better fit for a lineup that had Sumail and Arteezy as the two farming cores. | ||

This whole swap was a big fuck up by Secret, and EG had to rush things and made the same mistakes... Im just sad... its so much money in it all, and the teams act so imature... I know its a game, but thats what they said about football or tennis 100 years ago too and they didnt fight for the money these gamers are. | ||

These are all pretty much the most upvoted posts in any of the Secret/EG threads on Reddit in the past 2 days. It took literally 30 minutes of "research" for Thorin to basically do a TLDR of those and post it in video form to cash in on the drama. He offered nothing new to the discussion. Not that he could, anyway. | ||

Sumail had his time in the sun last year, but outside of the big entry he's made into the scene he has zero charisma. His Twitter feed is 100% inane tweets, he doesn't talk to interviewers, he's just not personable at all. He's the silent assassin. But on a serious note, what do you really expect from a 17yo kid? He's probably somewhat introverted and really quiet, nothing wrong with that. Not everyone has to be a super celebrity. In a game he's a beast though. I can't really say a bad word about him (always rated him higher than RTZ in mid for example since Sumail can play very well from behind while RTZ can't if his life depended on it). | ||
