That means 6.88 "ten-patch anniversary" patch for TI6. It's the return of the Alliance meta! The return of the rats! #Alliance&EGMisblack #longliveAlliance | ||

Hope they realize this passive shit doesn't work that well tho. =/ Edit: Guess 4C&L cant sign for this lock then? Well tbh , passive won the majors , it was WW + Dazzle combos with farming mids that won.... Its just that the team doesn't play 5 man when they should around a farmed SF for example (not hitting timings at all) , we get picked off WAY too much into snowball loses , we didn't play the defensive supports well enough and tried to go offensive without success a lot of the times . | ||

I'm fairly certain though that they realize this as well. They don't seem to think of themselves as mechanically superior to other teams. Loda has on numerous occasions stated that one of the reasons they did so well in 2013 was that they were innovative and unafraid to try try different stuff - that kept them one step ahead of their opponents. (Personally I think Loda is giving himself a little too much credit, they were not THAT innovative but whatever. I'll grant him that they were unafraid to try ballsy stuff from time to time, with everything from Blitz Push to Fake lvl 1 Roshan etc.) What I'm mostly excited about though is: 1. Seeing if they can find their chemistry again (Akke+EGM really clicked in 2013 and EGM+Bulldog too, especially with map control plays). 2. The extended hero pool EGM brings: Rubick, Shadow Demon, Sand King, Support WR, Earthshaker, AA, Naga etc... Not to mention his beastly Wisp. 3. Dem feels. Let's be real here; there's a lot of nostalgia in this one. | ||

He is so much more versatile now compared to 1-2 years ago. | ||

Let's be real here; there's a lot of nostalgia in this one. Wisp is not a hero alliance ever gets anymore so its not relevant , the problem was not MyNuts so i fear EGM is not the solution as a "get him and we now can do good" they need to change things , practice the patch OP heroes more and practice their heart out , its do or die for them as a team i feel , TI6 is the goal and with current results they are not getting invited and we all know qualifiers are HELL , BUT I'm excited and hoping for the best ..... | ||
