Don't forget Fear is the only person who has still been on EG since pretty much forever. They are loyal to him and they treat their players well. I call BS on what that reddit post was saying.

Without a top tier carry player like him (with impeccable mechanics AND late-game decision making), no team can really go far in TI4. I think Mason is 95% of what Fear was in terms of being a carry, so it's impossible to blame or credit TI4 results on whatever happens. | ||

What Monolith wrote about Fear couldn't be more accurate re: the pillar of NA dota. I think Mason is 95% of what Fear was in terms of being a carry, so it's impossible to blame or credit TI4 results on whatever happens. When it comes down to it, games are going to go long against heavy hitting teams like DK, iG, NB, and whoever. Having someone like mason who excels at early midgame like every other budding chinese team doesnt help there at all. However, Fear, unlike everyone else on EG except for universe, has the experience to handle situations that arise in the late game. They need someone who understands the lategame and fear has played dota since there was only late game. Where one pick off just ends your entire run. | ||

It would be pretty cool to see him cast or get on the analyst panel. someone confirmed that Fear mentioned on his stream that he will be coaching EG on Summit LAN http://www.reddit.com/r/DotA2/comments/279jx6/confirmed_fear_attending_summit_as_eg_coach/ | ||

To pursue a dream that long and that hard, foregoing a "real" job, and putting in countless hours of practice... It would be disgusting if he didn't get a dime. Cheers to him. | ||
