I do think its kind of obnoxious that they are chanting so much despite being down 0-1 after a swift raping, and they are against a far superior team. and its not like they are just cheering at big moments, its every time they get a kill

Relax mate, he's joking.

why do people say "relax" same thing with "calm down" and "chill out" if they are worked up, they get infruriated, if they arent, then they just take it as troll baiting.

The opportunity cost of doing that is huge - if you spend a lot of time looking for the other team they're going to get farmed and leveled faster than you are.

They do in a teamfight under a tower, plus it's very hard to kill a tower if no creeps are around, it get's defensive bonus,

You are totally right. I mean, when Lionel Messi scores a goal for Barca, everyone in the stands starts chanting Argentinian chants. Right? Right....?

No?

Yeah I didn't think so.

People chant for the team's home base, not where their players are from. Come on now.


They chant Barca Barca not Spain Spain

Anyway this argument is pretty silly anyway so let's focus more on the games!

Man, EG is showing up suddenly. Its like they woke up and decided, hey lets play srs now k?

Its great to see that EG is doing well, but I don't see them winning this Bo3. If they do, well CONGRATS because I sure as hell did not see it coming.

After the early game towers dont do significant damage anymore indeed, luckily.
They will slowly try to push every lane playing really safe, IG can't really kill them straightup.
But catching some1 offguard can change the entire game.

Please never call them champs, they are heroes.
You can't just call something a teamfight hero etc.
That fight went so onesided because EG.Maelk (Enigma) Hit a blackhole on 4 people of team IG.
If he would have only hit 1-2 people that fight would have been a lot more even.

Sorry, I was referring to build a team around heroes that have massive effect in teamfights with their ults (like enigma)

That analogy doesn't really make sense. They chant for Barca. When it's club sports it's about the club not the country. When it's country it's about the country not the club. American gaming is only place I've seen country and club somehow mix. Might be other examples not sure.

Anyway iG gonna win this I have faith.

It's not obnoxious it's not giving up on your team....you don't give up because things aren't going your way. Pretty typical mindset in most sports.

I think in the very beginning of competetive dota (allstars) the picks were centered around AOE heroes. But I guess having farmed carries is just more effective.

I don't think it was intentional. It could have been an adjustment to the flow of the game. It is possible he wanted an assortment of them but I just think he was adapting to the match.
