Same reason people say QoP instead of Akasha, Bane instead of Atropos, NS instead of Balanar.... It's just what people are used to it. It's also not uncommon to say acronyms like that, P O T M would be weird.

For the same reason they chant usa and not america.

They say U S A not usa which as I said actually makes sense.


Man, you just hate everything don't you?

I really tried to come up with a nice counter-argument but then I sadly didn't find the supposed hate in my post <.<

And morph soft counters AM But it's pretty much because people thank back of the early beta where almost nobody lost with an antimage...

no AM is favored against morph, back in the dota1 days when morph was super strong, AM was introduced as a way to beat him, stun the morph (obv AM doesnt have a stun, but pick good stunner allies) then blink in manta to steal his mana.

Do you say F I F A instead of FIFA as well? Both ways are fine depending on the word. There is no rule.

Am is a counter to morph and not morph counter to am.

Even when morph was strong in late 2010 people started picking am to counter him

Yeah it's not like it even matters, still pretty interesting. Potm always makes me think potemkin though, I guess that's why it's a bit <_< Not like it's exactly a negative in most cases either, just interesting.


And about the game itself! BM first blood dived... Hmm I really think that Complexity dug their own grave by giving Zenith Morph/Invoker, don't understand... maybe the AM is going to be able to overcome that but for some reason I'm quite doubtful.

Yeah I guess I'm a bit silly, the T->M transition doesn't feel that natural though
