if this was true double elimination, navi would have won the first set 2-1, and right now alliance would be leading 1-0 in this second and final set.

Dude, just chill. Everyone gets you have some random beef with XBOCT. No need to shout about it every ten seconds.



Not random beef, just legitimate criticisms. If he bought that Sblade right there and had it, he wouldn't have died. Instead he ends up dying another 3 times and then gets even further behind. It was a massive mistake.



He had no way to know they'd get teamwiped at bot tower. He was probably saving up for a relic, seeing as they weren't behind then, maybe even ahead a little. At that time, it seemed a perfectly reasonable decision, but of course, hindsight is 20/20


Who the fuck builds Radience on Alchemist? That's the dumbest item ever. He was obviously just indecisive on what to build, which cost them big time.


Saving up for the potential BF. Pretty obvious.



Lmao, you don't save up 3000 gold for a bfury, you buy a ROH for the lane to sustain easier, and then slow build it up.


1. Potential BF? He had a choice of either going for Loths if things go south if he didn't buy a perse first.
2. Who the hell needs sustain on Alch? You go back to full HP with your ult anyway if you're just farming.
3. Burning bought a complete battlefury without the components last time. Pretty sure he knows what he's doing.

Looks like you have no idea what you're talking about.



You never, ever, ever, ever, ever save up 3k gold if you go bfury. Never. You buy the Claymore, the ROH, or any other part for the extra regen, extra last hitting damage (making it easier to last hit under tower), etc.

Burning disagrees with you.


Burning did it when there was no threat of him getting ganked. Xboct not buying items against a hero like Nightstalker that immediately puts pressure on you at minute 6? That's dumb and everyone knows it.

Yup.

Doesn't make your statement any less wrong. =P

Xboct is pronounced as Hvost in the Cyrillic alphabet.

But where is 2009 and 820? All I see is Burning casting with Neko and BBC...

Oh, shut up. Game 2 he had 950 gpm



Holding onto 3000 gold when he could have had a shadow blade completely changes this game. If he bought the shadow blade he wouldn't be dying nearly as much, and they'd have a chance to get back into this game.

Especially when you're not exactly uncontested on your freefarming vs a Nightstalker at night.


Pretty sure if you can get perfect cs in an empty lobby then neither XBOCT nor Burning needs the broadsword to last hit. RoH is inefficient for high HP heros like Alch (not to mention redundant); you might have had a point if you were talking about AM in a contested lane, but this is alch on a freefarm lane. RoH would have been a waste and it would have denied him the option of going Lothars.

Stop trying to dig yourself out of this one. Burning's on my side.

It's how his name is actually intended to be pronounced.

So, depending on how it goes, every kill/death in this next game will be between $10-40,000. No pressure.

Doesn't mean you should stretch. This last one could be a long one.

Or a short one.

Or anything really.
