My hatred for Bo1s trumps everything else at this point. I feel like I won the lottery today | ||

I feel like I won the lottery today Its just a really bad system for dota, and liquid in particular are pretty bad at it. Really glad we avoided that shit;) | ||

I'm kind of disappointed, but I guess not every team can be as consistent as Liquid. consistent as liquid not winning a single major after TI? kidding aside, liquid seems pretty confirmed on winning this tournament with VP bombing out so badly, unless LGD/FTM plays the games of their lives against liquid, but with liquid comfortably outplaying the rest of the teams so far i don't see it happening | ||

Also, I miss last year's Epicenter intros. Not a fan of this year's. So much with the consistency.Our boys deserved it. You can't get that cocky in picking morph first pick. He was a non factor that entire game. We got what we asked for. I thought that Kuro will draft a morph support, but nope. First time we lose our focus and we look bad. Its the same every time - but i am pretty sure we will not do that in game two. And things will look very different. | ||

And so what? Forcing morph into second item BKB means game over. This hero without the shotgun timing is not that scary. So why were LGD fed? Because they got heroes that counter our draft. Chain stun lock for days. Same happened last game. Draft was OKish , but this time MC played bad, and itemased badly. Tthat Axe + Skyrath combo killed matu's midagme, so there was it. Just shows how important draft is these days. There are more than two teams with good understanding of the game. So if you draft poor you lose. | ||

Second game felt like they lost to a generic meta team while they were picking Ursa and Enigma. Obviously, MC's positioning was horrible, but both Ursa and Enigma didn't look too good either. Dotabuff shows the last time Liquid has had success with Ursa was 7 months ago. It's worthwhile to test out Enigma but Ursa has failed them so many times and has received minimal buffs, I'm not sure why they insist on trying to make him a thing. | ||
