Lancer being lame ass hero has nothing to do with who won the game?


You can ban heroes in Dota too, right? Why not ban him if he's such a nuisance? Not banning a hero seems to me like you're saying that you're confident you can deal with it.


Wow, thats actually true. You are pretty smart

(Vote): If you have time



No, game was boring.

when the majority thinks otherwise, your opinion seems strange


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.


Who usually watches again the game that already watched live and knew the results?

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...
Maybe you just hate Dota? There are other games to watch.

Its so ironic how people complain about PL but not alch...



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.

Troll kind of outscales Alchemist really hard at his role if Alch didn't get his speedfarm :/

This.

This.


Alliance played amazing though...


You make it sound like I care.

Actually the last 20 minutes was LGD taking the better teamfights but lancer/NP just getting farmed and pushing all three lanes. Nothing amazing about their late game.

LGD has 5 bans. When you see KotL, its your fault if you let them get PL and NP.


wut

NP was 2nd pick after the standard bans...

KotL and PL were 3rd/4th picks too >______>;;;

I'm not saying that Alliance had a less-than-great early-to-midgame, but the drafting wasn't anything derpy by LGD and Lancer late game isn't magical.

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.

No they weren't. Still had it.


Every single team played morph last year.



Morph is still a more entertaining hero than PL.

LGD banned Spectre in game one, I don't know if you know.

Not really. It took maybe a second or two to kill kotl/visage which with grave chill and blinding light would have cost more time killing the buildings. The BkBs weren't that long at the end of the game. The magnus not going back sooner most likely cost them the game more than those kills. Don't call things simple that are in no way simple.


Simple point is, LGD lost the game on their own faults while everyone is yelling at lancer

It was a good game, unfortunately Sylar choked (or miscalculated PL+NP damage, or idk). LGD should've won, or at least been a split second away from winning, so I'm a bit disappointed....

No they weren't. Still had it.

Because Alliance played this in a single game while morphling was in 100% of the games ?



Morphling was a much more active hero than the way Alliance played. He actively suppressed and murdered heroes with Eblade. Alliance basically dodged fights the entire time and just split pushed and farmed while defending towers with KotL. Effective, but extremely boring and lame to watch. Almost on par with oldschool SMM 2009 farm fests.

It just makes me laugh at the amount of hypocrisy that goes on here, almost Azarkon level of bias.

It was boring, and when we'll see that every single game you can be sure people will complain about it. Actually some people complain already after just one.
