mu played AMAZING this game. great item choices + great overall play.

Bloodstone is never a good item choice on Krob tho /s


maybe .. maybe not hard to tell cause he got it pretty early after his euls.

I mean, the only real utility of bloodstone in this game was pretty similar to that on someone like OD: quicker respawn and marginal synergy with 1st skill.


but he did get tanky so yeah maybe its not correct but can't fault him for that one item he did play really well and understood his late game refresher need. So we'll cut him some slack.

Well, refresher is never a bad lategame item after all, and rest of his items were pretty darn standard Krob's items (shiva, heart, euls is pretty much standard).

Absolutely hate to see newbee win anything such a boring team

are you fucking serious right now

like completely fucking straight-faced.

Their personalities are boring. I don't like them, just like you don't like EG. Sorry.

oh i thought we were talking about their play

To be honest, I am so fucking tired of the 5 man "this lane tower is ours now bitch" strat which is so LGD it hurts.

It's straight up boring to see the diffusal of that strat be so hard.

what

going as five means there are more fights. Unless the draft is a push strat, that is. Grouping up and pushing is awesome, because that's how you get 10-man fights.

FIghts are cool. Sending illusions in a lane to split push it while farming jungle is boring as shit to watch.

But hey, opinions etc etc

No no, you misunderstand. The 5 man pushes where heroes just tank up and wait for chip damage to destroy a tower due to one or two skills/ultimates = boring. When they actually have a good fight, I like it.

Engaging that is nigh-impossible when they have as good positioning as that (professionals yada yada) etc.

How do you know their personalities? Just curious as I know nothing of the Chinese because I don't speak Chinese (speak Russian, English, and Korean though!) I think saying that personalities are boring without knowing them outside of the game is a bit of an understatement. Unless you mean their playstyle is boring.


Just the standard "korean starcraft players have no personalities" stereotype

I mean, rtz was playing as if he wanted newbee to win, so there is no need to cry, only to congratulate.

no.

Not skilling net on naga at lvl9- is asking to lose.

No it's not. It's called greed. EG are really good at this thing.

but it literally killed him.

he fed like crazy yo.

He fed because Newbee played well. In at least 3/9 deaths pre "late" game they were at least 2-3 heroes and 1 net would not have saved him.

in at least two all he needed was a net to survive.

That's two less deaths. A lot of money not lost and a couple hundred not given to NB.

Greed isn't always amazing.

gotta thank burning for all that naga practice a few weeks back

gotta say DK's naga was so much better than RTZ's here

but can't get hopes up yet, still two more games to go


dk plays naga bit different, a lot more 4v5 fights to create space. EG were just looking for 2v1 skirmishes which exposed naga

I haven't seen Panda doing during split so much in any game before that.

But then, maybe EG is just going for the LWW PPY tactic.

Has anyone else noted that EG is pretty much the only team that doesn't have their offlaner sitting off on one end, and the 1 sitting next to the supports? Makes sense sort of, given how unique their playstyle is, but I always thought it was interesting.
