He ends up either being passive by farming, or playing suicidal low net worth clockwerk role etc. I don't think he was serious, but joking and meme-ing instead. | ||

I seem to remember he had the Alliance tag against Abraxos The Abraxos game wasn't ticketed, his name was set manually. The NiP game was ticketed. | ||

Akke's Chen in game 1 was sublime. 10/10 Loda played a great Gyrocopter in that game as well, but it's of course easy to look good as a carry in situation where your team has the entire map on lockdown. In game 2, Loda's PL was struggling pretty hard and his plays could have been better. In game 3 I think he made a good comeback with Gyro considering he was shut down pretty hard early/midgame. Akke had a good game 2 on Visage, making some big bird plays, but his game 3 on WD was lackluster. Overall: They played well enough. | ||

The smoke play at top rune to bait the sf into going for rune was awesome. The mid lane gank on sf via s4 low hp bait + haste rune (of course he has haste..) was cool too. Vintage alliance plays. | ||

I think they have to start taking things seriously and play 8-9 hrs/day AS A TEAM to improve... and i'll never doubt S4's captaining, some picks today may seem weird, but they have to try something out of the box. That said, hope they can recover... | ||

But playing together is the only thing that really makes sense if you want to be competitive. Just pubbing is pretty useless in that regard. For their sake, I hope Alliance manage to get at least 2-3 hours of practice together every day despite Akke's difficulties finding the time. Otherwise, I don't see how they can have any hope of getting back to the top of the Dota scene. | ||

Arteezy said in his ask.fm he can play 10 hours per day (in 7k+ bracket, not 5k) to train, if they want to ever accomplish anything, they NEED to play that much at highest levels for a long time otherwise, they'll never reach anything, if they are ok with it i don't mind, i'll Always support the boys no matter what. He play 10hr, but not 10hr in scrims. | ||
