loda is not excellent.. an excellent player doesnt use his manta right after euls when being guaranteed stuned by icepath when theres a dp running at him which will silence him and then kill him with exorcism cause he cant dispel the silence with manta and simply blink. (game 1 towards the end in mid river). an excellent player doesnt push with aquilla and 8k gold stacked up on his slotless terrorblade. and excellent player dioesnt wait 20 minutes to long to replace his now useless radi with an in that game invaluable assault cuirass or satanic. an excellent player with 14k gold in the bank on tb doesnt refuse to get a refresher in stash for second metamorphosis and possibly sunder in case they need to push after a defence or he might need those abilities and his bkb after a buyback.

this is only from 2 games and only the stuff i was too angry to forget by the way

Well my point was that Arteezy also does really dumb things some times and you named some dumb things that Loda did, and he still managed to carry that game hard against an EG that was playing a really tight game.

But ok man be angry it's cool. I've made similar points about XBOCT.

Loda has had good void games, they just don't stick in the memory. I must admit though I'm a little nervous about how it's gonna pan out this time around.

He only "carried" that game because he happened to be the carry.

You swap Loda and RTZ on the rosters and Alliance win quite easily.

It's been a long time since Loda was on par with the top talent.

you wont see arteezy making this amount of mistakes in 20 games unless hes playing Ember at the last starladder. also what i named arent dumb plays. they are the absence of good plays. loda is replacable at any second.

But what if...bear with me here...Arteezy is overrated, and Loda is underrated due to the recent lack of his team's success. How would you respond to this hypothetical.
