Maybe because alch can't siege a base for 10 minutes safely from the river?

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.

Pls stop whining about PL - if you don't like how the game is played don't watch it. Both teams played well and you would be damn ignorant to suggest otherwise

No, game was boring.

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

Balanced.


Alchemist really isn't that hard a carry late game compared to hero's like Void, Tiny, Spectre, Medusa, PL, etc.

Now if LGD had a super farmed hard carry like Tiny + Magnus Empower late game they would of likely been able to push out the lanes much faster, due to how hard a carry Tiny is with his cleave.

People are just as whiny here as in the SC2 forums I see -.-, that was a great game.


Pretty sure it's not just "here".

Even the crowd turned against Alliance.



And they are indeed a part of the community arent they?


I thought you meant here as in TL dota 2 forums.

Pretty weird to use "here" to mean the crowds in the hall as well or the whole dota 2 community.

He said "here" because he was comparing it to the sc2 forum, it's pretty self-explanatory. Also "here" doesn't exclude the same taking place elsewhere, and neither did he imply as much. What exactly are you on about?

People can bitch and moan all day long and then in the end everyone recommends the games.

PL is a great hero because PL creates amazing games. He always has. The amount of boring Naix games is a thousand times higher than the amount of boring PL games.

Both sides played boring ass styles. 4 protect 1 with Magnus turtle vs PL / Furion split push. Magnus is bad for the game, needs to get nerfed into Oblivion.

This was more the fault of LGD's team not being able to get into the tempo that was required of them

Strictly speaking, the way the game worked, their teamcomp actually demanded that they use Alch's BKB/AC timings to win teamfights/break base, they were just already losing too hard by the time those happened (well they were in a good spot with the AC, but then Akke's Blinding Light happened).

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.

Yao has BKB. Could have RP'd and stalled, and Alchemist should have just focused on towers.


RP and refresher was on cooldown?



No they weren't. Still had it.


Every single team played morph last year.

LGD needed to have an advantage in the early game to negate the split push..A Farmed PL and NP is always obnoxious and silly in the lategame.

Still , Much respect to Both Teams.

Na'vi DOTO STILL BEST DOTO..No Obnoxious Split pushing and Insane wombo combos

Thy Shall Die Alone...or emm..something like that.

haha.. PL complainers, I bet, weren't around last year. Morph/Naga/Tide/DS every game.

I hated Morph as much as I hate PL and AM, but Tide and DS? It is not the point that the hero itself is strong, but that the strategy he uses it safe for him, incredibly strong, hard to defend against, and pathetic/boring itself...

I would claim that the majority would not enjoy rewatching the game.
People just vote "Yes" cause of the hype leading out of the game.

Lol @ people whining over Phantom Lancer. This game has nothing to do with 'cancer lancer', watching that style of play was absolutely beautiful. The patience and discipline of Alliance, not to mention their positioning and critcal decision-making was key to winning that game. Get off the hate band-wagon, that was incredible play by both teams, Alliance was just better.


yea cuz pressing q and the manta button then a-move illusions into the rax from 1 mile away takes a fuckton of discipline and decision making. that's literally how they got every tier 3 tower and rax. On the bright side, Alliance will eventually run out of gimmicks. i hope.


KOTL PL is a fucking gimmick now? Haha, it is a staple dota 2 combo and has been so for a looong time.
