Noob question, why does Ember buys 2 battle furys? Why does it benefit him and not other heroes? Don't see other heroes doing the same.

Ember isn't a traditional carry in the sense that he doesn't right click on people. His damage comes from his second skill, Sleight of First, which benefits from the cleave. For straight right click damage battlefury is not the best skill.

Ah that makes sense, so the more cleave he gets for sleight of fist the better?. I always see AM get the 1 Battle Fury but it seems to be 100% for farming and not right clicking heroes, so I thought Battle Fury was a farming item.

It's almost always a farming item (sometimes you get it lategame vs heros like PL to deal with illusions). For Ember, it just happens to be the best farming AND fighting item.
On a purely personal note, I'd like to show Yellow the beauty of infinitely repeating Starcraft 2 bunkers. -Boxer

Newbie went 5-0 as dire, 1-2 as radiant.
EG is undefeated as dire so far this TI.

Thoughts? Overall, the stats may say Dire/Radiant is 50%/50%, but it feels that good teams (or teams that play a certain style) can exploit the dire advantage to get a big edge.

Most of the top teams have a big dire wr in this tournament Dk is 7/2 VG is 9/1 iG is 5/2

its unique on ember
am hits one target at a time+cleave radius.
ember hits all targets in large aoe, so the cleave gets splashes from anyone standing close to another hero or creep in the radius

YYF should make top4, I don't care what kind of teams should iG eliminate to reach this, but it's a must.

LGD already got more money they could get in a whole two years combined on a back of strong signature play, so I am happy for them. Lin won't get kicked, Yao won't retire, Rabbit continues to impress, etc.
I think their strategy is to dumpster bad Western teams (c) uriel

iG > NaVi

DK > iG

VG > DK!

:D
(Although my heart predictions want NewBee and NaVi higher. D: )

The front desk with 2gd, sheever, merlini, waga etc. bet MMR against each other on outcomes of games, when first tower goes down, etc. and Merlini won the panel leaderboards and actually got a sweet looking cup.
