Alliance vs Cloud 9 game 3 is being played on LAN. As such only the Chinese broadcasters at the event can stream the games. BTS and Starladder has chosen to stop streaming as they could not get the Chinese stream to work smoothly. Chinese stream: http://www.liquiddota.com/stream/9704 |

TB seems like a strictly better Naga almost. He does farm a bit slower, but he pushes so well that he wins at 35 minutes, instead of 70 minutes like Naga. tb farms faster early on .. but naga wipes out almost the entire map every illusion wave .. and keeps all enemies on the other side of the map if the hero gets in a better position TB does deal better damage but naga has the 1 minute cd reset button. i think i'd rather have 6 slot naga than 6 slot tb but i like TB better right now .. hero just rapes everything .. it's much easier to use and harder to pressure Comparativley TB is as you say much easier to use. Im afraid we will see so many tbs in ranked the coming days.. Not looking forward for his rise in popularity.
yah not looking forward too(but i am gonna pick TB so won't have problems with that :D)
TB is actually a lot easier ... 1 illusion of the hero can even clear a single camp with little items and you don't have to micro so much since 4 illusions is like the maxed amount of illusion you can control normally ..

Sniper pls. All gap closer banned

VC's draft already looks really strong.
Cloud 9 need someone able to do work.
Thought it might have been a Naga.
edit: eh. underwhelmed. Worried.
Simply outdrafted? game 3?

Honestly he's probably more in the conversation than Bat, but I started following pro dota a little after TI2 and I think there have been like 2 months since then in which bat was not considered a top pick.

cloud9 should just aggressively 4man as soon as either batrider OR puck get the blink, and they probably will, what else can they do? add razor once he gets his aghs + maybe bkb. i agree with rtz about drums on razor though, seems kinda a waste
|
C9 has to lead the game from early to late if they want to win I think.
|
Don't like Fy on Wraith King. Seems like a huge waste.
|
I feel like C9 need to create a big lead by minute 20 and that's. . .not their style.
Oh well.

batrider is super good
he is like a support hero .. never falls off and almost always a good pick

isn't the Mek nerf the most important Razor nerf?
|
they should bring back that mortal strike active
20% hp nuke at level 2 was dope
|
I think this is a clown9 draft.

their g2 vs malaysia had a very similar lineup and it ended up working out (though pld had 2 sick epis on sand king into rosh pit with the second one leading to aegis snatch)

dislike this c9 draft... see how it goes
|
Just as an interesting thought experiment, what would happen if instead of nerfing TB (like most everyone expects) we instead buff all the previous OP carries back to how they were, the old Naga, Tinker, Morphling, Lycan, PL, let items proc OD's Essence Aura again, Gyro, and put them all back into the pool.
What would happen to the meta then?
