This all depends on how S4 is doing in the next 5-10 minutes.

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.

Well LoL has no illusions either o_O DotA has variance as I said, there's illusion vs creep PvE dota as well and it's a legit strategy in these types of games.

Maybe you should try arena mode Smite?


Dota has enough variance already without the boring stuff. You said it yourself, DOTA has more variance than most other games, so why would weeding out the most boring strat of them all, which drags games out for so long and eliminates direct Player vs Player interactions be a bad thing? This is why people hated 4p1 dota a few years back, and when the meta shifted the game became a lot more interesting to watch.

Maybe you should watch WoW raids?

Or you can just ban out PL. Pushing strats are valid and part of the game. People need to deal with it.


You ban heroes which you don't want to play against, not necessarily the ones which are the most boring to watch. I don't see why the teams should be forced to use up a ban to ensure the match is good for the spectators. What a stupid argument.

Stop bitching about heroes. If LGD didn't go for Alch, they could have had a better late game hero and been able to push better. But they didn't and that is why they lost. They arn't goign to remove stuff just because a bunch of people whine that its boring for 30 minutes, when it was tense and exciting.


Once again, it isn't about power levels or the teams' strategic decisions. I don't see how you still can't realise this.

Other hero comps can achieve the same tenseness and excitement. A large proportion of the viewership finds this hero comp exclusively boring. That is a very good reason to remove this strat, if the tenseness and excitement can be found elsewhere.

Then again, maybe it's just because I got kind of tired of this comp since I've been watching it for so long. But hey, that's the point of nerfing heros to change the meta, right?

Why do people insist on picking CM? If you can't finish at like 15-18 minutes, she really becomes obsolete =/

Considering how long games tend to go (just look at last game), she feels like a bad pick in general.

Yeah, because going 14:0 in the prelims clearly shows how lackluster they lineup is.
