alliance hasn't been able to draft properly since 6.79

this is the main issue imo, all their wins are on above average drafts (or just slightly better than enemy draft) with good lategame execution, never amazing drafts

i dunno how you people quantify this kind of crap when alliance winning ti3 was entirely dependent on bulldog's unique playstyle


rofl you have to be kidding me. Alliance won ti3 becase they had mastered wisp first and knew how to play wisp. Secondly they won ti3 because they had Naga when no one else could play naga siren support*. Finally they had s4 at the peak of his powers. S4 was the best mid in the world at the time and allowed alliance to play their greedy 2core with Loda and AB getting farm.

lol

maybe stop bashing the picks and start bashing bulldog for playing for the wrong alex garfield team al series??


I was honestly quite surprised when they kicked EGM over bulldong.


they didn't kick EGM lol

EGM left


s4 left.

But it was left ambiguous as to whether EGM was kicked or he left. More likely kicked considering the cordial statement they released for him as compared to s4.

But im a cynic, ignore me if you must.

hey lets praise loda because in our world playing well means getting your sunder off against a silenced enigma veno and death prophet. also buying items to late in the wrong order or not at all is great play in our book



Let's ignore all the farm he got under pressure, and his spot on decision making.

spot on decision making? like? like not buying the correct items at the correct times
getting farm under pressure? what? 20 minute radiance yasha is not bad by any stretch but its not amazing either and he wasnt under all that much pressure either. especially not after that botched rax attempt by eg after which he was under no pressure. and yes he did farm well. but to be honest farming well on tb with radi is not hard
pussy and patrol make me feel alright

lol

a lot of those strategies were contingent on bulldog's unique carry-splitpusher-from-offlane style

i kept ranting last season about how [a] could've done so much better if they put s4 in the offlane due to the 6.79 "tempo controllers do better in offlane" change but they never fucking tried

It would be like this if the stream we were watching wasn't constantly overstating his performance.

But now that Alliance has been eliminated, we can focus our attention on EE

Nvm, they are going back to Loda...

If he held it together quite well vs EG, you already know how he will do against a good team.

Lol. Chill out it was a joke.

I have never seen this guy cover anything Dota related ever. And he doesn't stand out to me solely as a host/interviewer as RedEye does.
