Maybe because alch can't push multiple lanes and siege a base for 10 minutes safely from the river/jungle?


But Alch can 1v5 teams that are 20k gold ahead with just 1 stun on 2 supports.

Balanced.



Show me a professional replay of a alchemist doing this, please,

And if you are talking about game 1 you are either: a) trolling, b) new, c) dumb. Sylar had a magnus with double RP, beastmaster and a nyx to hold people down.

People get so annoyed when a hero becomes dominant. If meepo would become instapicked and start owning, it won't take a lot of time for people to start rioting in front of the valve offices.

Think LGD needed to make their move earlier in that game. Defending against PL and NP while they are chiping your raxes to death is never a good thing

They didn't have control of the game. Honestly for the most of the game they *wanted* to be able to win a straight-up teamfight, but Alliance's early advantages simply meant they didn't have the basic teamfight items to win fights. Beastmaster's Mek was painfully late, and Yao solo-dying to s4 really hurt his ability to start moving the game forward for LGD.

Alch also actually has to end the game, because Alch loses on even farm to many, many, carries.

Alch teams are actually quite under pressure to actually end the game at particular timings. I don't see why Alch is a hero to complain about.

I don't think they get that Alch is good because of his speed farming, not his robust endgame.


His endgame isnt horrible as long as he has chemical rage up. I find him kind of synonymous to bear late game (not super lategame) where your carrying is limited by one spell essentially, since Alchs ulti just gives him stupid IAS which is one of the most important DPS components lategame when crits/mkb/bashes come out.

Honestly i thought LGD played it out very well, and they had a chance to win definitely, but it was a reach since with that many creeps in the base, and magnus probably having to tp to fountain it isnt really too hard for Loda and bulldog to split up to not both get rped, and at that point both of their dpses were so high you probably need to hit both, and you wont hit both cause i dont think magnus's bkb would last long enough for him to even attempt to catch 2 before getting hexed.

Even though in my opinion on some of those seiges if s4 just did what most clocks do and focused on catching the magnus with hook+cogs to force out bkb, they couldve won fights cause at that point you just have bulldog save hex for sylar and orchid nyx/magnus

When your end game is "I really hoep I get 2 RPs off due to holding this cheese" its a bad time. They could have had it, but Alliance plays to safe for that.

The problem is that LGD let's their supports starve while [A] loves to play greedy for all 5 heroes.

Kipsate should bring back the hope for LGD. Has worked before.

I believe!

What a disgusting ass game. I officially hate Alliance's guts right now


If people don't want to play against those heroes, they can feel free to ban them. I'm not an Alliance fan but there's 1.5 million dollars on the line here and they're up against one of the best Chinese teams and the stiffest competition they've faced so far. If you pull any punches to please the internet nerds at that point, you deserve to lose. Giving Alliance the PL/KotL/Prophet combo is just dumb.

Yeah seriously
You cant get mad/upset at a team for picking "tryhard" heroes or something. This is the freaking international. People come here to WIN

Maybe they don't get that is for 2.6 million? OR they just hate people playing to win. Or they are confused by the ban phase.

its called anti-fun just like other games. I dont fault the playerss i fault the game not being balanced lol.

The game is totally balanced. LGD lost the game when they lose map control and Alliance just choked them to death. If you don't want to play against that style or are running a difference line up, BAN OUT PHANTOM LANCER!!!!!!!

Please, don't say that game is "totally" balanced when it isn't. I was stating that back then in 2008, now in 2013 I see how many holes it has. It has a lot of RNG, luck factor is big, it isn't "completely" balanced and some heroes obviously needs fixing, otherwise they wouldn't be banned/picked in 100% of the games.

I hope it goes the way LGD vs TF at DSL groups went.
I think their strategy is to dumpster bad Western teams (c) uriel

Sigh... another Alch game. God I hate that hero. Ofc there won't be a fuss over Alch + Visage which is just as bullshit as PL + Kotl.


I think because its more enjoyable to watch a gigantic goblin+ogre flailing the shit out of people than watching a strategic slow splitpush

If you don't like superfed megacarries 1v5ing teams when fed you can always go watch LoL or something... This is how DotA works. There's multiple ways to play DotA, lame and exciting. Most other games aren't as varied, I think that that's some of DotAs beauty...


But it wasn't a superfed megacarry 1v5ing a team? It was illusion vs creep PvE dota for the last 30 mins...I don't mind heroes being imba, I mind if they're boring to watch.
