im new to dota, can somebody tell me why they always rely on a single very strong hero instead of having 3-4 strong heroes?
I cant figure why you would put all eggs into one basket?! if the opponent team has one hero you fear, you disable him and then you can clear the map? also, why are some heroes still farming if they have enough money to buy back and the items they want to have? why not let the lesser developed heroes get the kills to make them strong, too?

The sound guy mixing the sound of the interviewer visiting him was quite funny.

You realize that you could probably tri-lane against Bulldog's LD and end up losing the lane? That's how good his LD is. You cannot possibly allow anything like that to happen.

You realize that bulldog might have gotten decent farm that game with LD, but DK's lane was THAT strong for a LD (might have forced a LD jungle), and that LD can't split push anywhere the amount that a NP can? Burning would have had similar farm, and LD can't stop teamfights like a NP can.

I've never even heard of this Team Truck... they seem to be a little bit old for gamers. Did they even qualify? I haven't seen any of their games..

DK played well, just not good enough against a dominant strategy. DK outplayed Alliance in alot of fights, but kept losing to buybacks. Alliance has a master plan and always executes it properly every game, and it looks like the only team that stylistically could beat them is Na'vi, who has high execution and aggressive style that can stop Alliance in its tracks before it gets the split push going.

Yeah sure, so those other 150 creeps? -.- You don't get 10cs/min by just clearing supers others cannot

You do, actually. It's not just the creeps in your base, it's not just whether Weaver or Dark Seer can literally kill them in time, you need to kill them Really Fast because you need to buy yourself pockets of time where you can actually go and do things.

The faster they clear creeps the more time they will have to pick off Prophet or fight at Roshan or something. If your plan is to sit inside your base and farm two lanes of big creeps on Dark Seer and Weaver for a sheepstick and god knows what on Weaver, what do you think Alliance is going to get in that time?

The answer is a sheep on EGM and probably a whole mess of other junk. And while they're doing it they're going to chip your top tower with illusions until you're ready to actually do something.
