Even the analyst desk "oh man loda was playing from behind" of fucking course you are behind when you play 4p1 against a 3 core push lineup. FFS oh my god somebody knows things about dota on this site... crazy | ||

Bulldog even now can only play those 2 heroes at a T1 level bulldog was the master of 6.78 offlane. He played a unique style where he denied the trilane supports farm for 5-10 minutes, then rotated to jungle and finished a 10~ minute midas. Alliance played masterfully as a team. Both s4 and bulldog tailored their roles to their specific team style | ||

It's kind of like watching real sports events on TV now. I want to see to T-mobile plastered ALL OVER that analyst desk. | ||

1. 6.79 patch was direct nerf to their playstyle 2. they lost their captain and drafter (and probably the best player on their team) they haven't been drafting well since TI3 and losing s4 only compounded that regardless of your opinion on loda and bulldog, alliance with S4 and EGM instead of h4nni and misery probably would have lost to EG as well | ||
