The way bulldog plays is that he needs farm to function. So on do shit heroes, he seeks to farm for some items, rather than make plays on poverty level like his off lane peers do. It kinda is a huge burden. As for mynuts, his movements and plays are just unspectacular. You don't think Akke and Loda needs to be replaced just as much as bulldog and mynuts?
Ideally you replace everybody but s4. But alliance to me loda and Akke anyway, so if we were to build around them and their limitations, I think mynuts and bulldog has to go.

I haven't seen enough of Mynuts to be sure. He's had some solid play, but he seems hesitant/reactive in his playstyle which could be a problem. In that sense I am very sorry that things didn't work out with Misery because he was quite possibly the perfect ingredient (aggressive, space-making support) for a team known for playing greedy.
Bulldog however concerns me a lot. I saw his stream today again thinking these past few losses might have stirred up some thoughts in him; maybe even caused him to rethink his approach to the game and practice more seriously. What does he do? Dick around on greedy farming heroes and lose, then play Lone Druid with @Dotagasm (or Bubu, I don't remember). The only bright spot in the Bulldog-situation is that his stream ended with @Dotagasm asking if he was going to "The house", to which he quietly said yes. I can only assume that "The house" means Alliance's scrimming house in Gothenburg where Bulldog, Loda and Akke lives (quite possibly all of them, though I know S4 is from Stockholm).
I can only hope this means that they're scrimming more now!

Yea, Misery is perfect for the team. Hero pool and playstyle that complements what Akke lacks. Mynuts has not been bad, but he plays too reactive, and when he tries to go aggressive, he ends up being clueless.

Well was saying about his time in [A]. Too bad then they didn't have s4.

Nothing that I heard, but then again I was at work and only half-listened to the perhaps last 2 hours of the stream. I'll watch the first hour(s) tomorrow as part of my breakfast routine

Just noting that Bulldog is not streaming today (at least not yet). Maybe the boys are actually preparing for tonight? #hype

Later in bububu's stream she said 'The house' was a house that Bulldog was looking to buy, so probably nothing to do with scrimming

I was out with friends tonight and only caught a glimpse of the games. Saw that we managed to pull through in the end. How did we do? How was the play? Talk to me fellow Allies! :-)
|
It was not great, they will have huge issues against tier 1 teams, but that's not new I guess
|
I saw 3/4 of game three. It was ok, they played well around cool down of DP, but format of this tournament sooo far from current meta my guess alliance has inherited advantage of knowing lots of different strats/metas.

I only saw game 2 and 3.
Game 2 Loda/Akke fed Viper and supports mid and S4 didn't crush the Sing techies offlane. Mynuts on WW was also pretty awful. Bulldogs offlane ES did work tho.
Game 3 was pretty clowny. Bulldog feed a bit offlane but still managed to be somewhat useful regardless (it was a hard lane to be sure) while the enemy tide feed offlane and managed to be useless (it was a hard lane there as well to be sure). S4 and Loda did what they had to do and the game was pretty much a stomp.

One thing i don't understand is... why Bulldog always streams with S4 and never with Loda,Akke,Mynuts? I know he and s4 are very close friends but.... they could stream all together sometimes

It's not hard to understand, they're bad and do nothing to improve :p

Alliance with the bad luck bugs when ahead into bad plays as usual *sadface*
Come on, boys! You can bounce back and improve.

Really looks like Alliance is the same old. I feel bad for s4.
