I wouldn't be surprised if they added some europeans to the team (although i see teams really avoiding it after ti).

Probably replacing TC and Biryu (although I don't even think TC is bad, he's underrated imo)

and i know biryu is an european, but still

I've only watched recaps but what was TC supposed to do in game 2 with Luna? Like every teamfight i saw had a BKB LC and a TA with aegis blink initiating on him while a BKB gyro was killing his team, A Luna can't stand up to that. Yet he's the one that has to be in front to bait the initiation because if DS or Veno or Qop gets forced into a Duel by LC they lose the teamfight 100%. Their was basically no other way for DC to take teamfights unless they got a pickoff with Qop Orchid/Hex.


Yeh honestly I thought TC played fine that series. I dont think anybody on DC played terribly. The strategical desicions and game plans were more the problem imo.

Bulba is the best one on the team imo. His plays are just amazing. In the last game, where they let the game reach 50mins+ it is over against a TA/Gyro/LC against essentially a Luna/QOP. I hope DC does not disband and work out their issues.

TC and Bulba aren't trash players, but they're middling and average players, and haven't seen much improvement since their Liquid days.

In 2013 that was enough to be at the top of NA. 2015 and onward, not so much.
Average means I'm better than half of you.

Bulba played well throughout the qualifiers. TC made some mistakes, but people are acting like the losses are all because of him, which isn't true. Yawar played great one game and awful the next. Aui... was Aui. He did Aui things, both good and bad. Biryu, though... I don't recall a single game where Biryu had any sort of impact. Sure, part of that is his position and farm, but he also makes a lot of mechanical mistakes a professional player absolutely should not make. I don't know exactly what he brings to the table for DC, but I'm pretty sure I'm not alone in thinking the team would be better off without him.

Honestly, besides biryu everyone played decently. Lately they just haven't been able to win when it counts. They destroyed in the quals but couldn't win when it counted.

I only saw the luna game. There was was nothing he couldve done after the cores got bkb, but at the very least he shouldn't have been caught doing inane stuff. But tbh, yawar losing mid heavily to a ta with high ping who also died twice early game, that REALLY gimped their lineup. Say what you want about carry tc, but I have seen mid tc so many times to confidently say that he rarely loses his mid that badly.

I think tc and yawar should swap roles. I think tc is best at mid, while I'm sure yawar is comfortable at carry.

surprised only one guy mentioned aui, who made some extremely bad decisions in game 2. his ultimate was everything for DC to win a teamfight, every teamfight they won involved poison novas hititng 3 or more people and every teamfight they lost involved poison nova hitting maybe one person or nobody at all. i didnt understand why he didnt get a blink dagger despite sitting on 15k+ networth

be self aware and work on things daily. I would hope they don't depend on a roster shuffle because already for these guys a lot rides on being on this team together.

this is a team you'd like to see succeeding before disbanding but so far they're getting pretty heavily outstrategized and outplayed by many [other] top level teams.

Bkb. Actually, their entire lineup that game was countered by bkbs. Their drafting, among other things, has been shit. Especially that one game against c9 where they drafted carry (???) furion against ns/ember, with nyx still in the pool. That was really dumb.

ah, the ever rotating draft position. Always a sign that a team has 0 confidence. I hope they figure something out soon. I like these guys.

Yawar, apparently. If ever there were a sign of desperation.

low duration bkbs only mitigate some damage (5 seconds of 110 magic damage) of poison nova, it doesnt do anything to the poison nova buff itself, meaning they will still end up taking 11 seconds of 110 magic damage. for an aoe spell that can hit the entire enemy team that is huge.

aui did realize that he needed blink dagger but he bought it way too late, after they had lost several teamfights and right before the end of the game

I really like Yawar so I hope this team can work out. I also hope that people can keep the flaming to a bare minimum.

Apparently they will replace c9 in nanyang! Oh yeah first LAN! Time to fail in the big stage!

Also yawar can't go so he's being replaced by ush? I haven't been big on him, so I don't know how I feel about this. Cautiously optimistic, I guess.

If the full roster of c9 can't go, I don't see why you should replace with 4/5 roster of DC. Might as well get a stand in for c9. Mercenary demon or something.
