Its good only if they use his advice and trust him , otherwise its another voice that tells them what they are doing is wrong and they should change this and that , so you either on board with the coach opinion or you convince him your POV is best , but if its "you should play more naga in this situation" and the boyz go " na , we think LC is the pick" without a very good reason they i say no .
But for that to work you need full time coach , i guess synd is not a coach but more of a interested observer which tries to give advice on the direction they already took , like fixing changing minor things only and not the gameplay or drafts.

Not sure exactly how many people Alliance have on their pay roll for this tournament. If they have nobody paid to analyse opponents then the coach can also help out with that. Depends on how they define their responsibilities.

I also agree it is too late after bringing him in to do major changes. A lot of the games Alliance have lost have been close though, so maybe a few details they are missing can be enough.

Perhaps 1 or 2 drafts he can suggest, the players can play more heroes than we usually see them on, a question of farm priority and group up timings might also help to balance those out.

Synderen himself has a good pedigree as a player, doubt they would have brought him in if they didn't want to listen to him at the start at least.

I'm always taken aback by how chill Bulldog can be in interviews. It's like 180° the opposite of the guy you see in his Twitch streams. Some days I think he's a narcissistic jackass; then you hear him talk about - for example - his reasons for not getting a bulldog... and I'm sitting here like "huh, maybe he's more mature than I gave him credit for".

The Bulldog. What an enigma.
Huge fan of JulyZerg, HonestTea and that guy Kim Taek Yong.

As S4 plays now days which is avoiding hitting creeps past 15 min he will have an invoker with Orchid as his 1 and final item until the game is over .

I wish they bring back the NP , that hero can still do work in certain lineups !!!

I believe we will see S4 on a farming mid more mainly on Lesh and QoP (which is a semi carry) , I don't like the Puck picks when we have AB on beast master it makes Loda a single late game core and we get abused HARD for such drafts with teams last picking another greedy core.

Avoid :
Puck,
DP (unless its a mega cheesy push strat).
Chen(unless its a g mega cheesy push strat).

Prioritise :
Wisp,
BM,
Doom,
Slark,
NP (in some global lineups)

I really feel we can do well in the major with drafts that are competitive , the most important thing i feel is always have the late game in the draft , i don't like it when we go all in early/mid game it rarely works out.

Wake up early. They might play for 12 hours. Even 3 hours sleep will help a lot.

Got a feeling we gonna see some nagas. Teams forget that hero against alliance. Alliance greatest strength lies in their late game decisions. As long as they have the heroes to play late game, you can feel confident if they reach that stage.
