I used to like their funky drafts, but disappointing results recently have made me wonder. I think EE is an excellent theorycrafter who sometimes forgets that the other team aren't target dummies. When his shit works out it looks brilliant, but at other times...
What's that thing they call c9 again?

Does anyone have the items built on drow? The damage output seemed to be not where it needed to be against Axe and Centaur. Also, with their huge advantage earlier, how did they allow Axe and Centaur to farm enough items? What caused TT the ability and confidence to break out or was it a slow crumble?

it's a slideshow but it's an improvement That's on you. Are you saying stream is 100% fine for everyone else? Cus it's the worst slideshow i've seen in a while now Yes, just you. http://r-1.ch/analyzer/results/dotastarladder_en.c0a8df T_T I hate this stupid basement and shitty wifi Seems to work just fine on Medium though. I'll live with it. 1st world problems. i get happy even if i can watch stream in Low settings at home.
I honestly can never run streams higher than Low and I think it's freaking beautiful compared to the usual Mobile quality.
I HATE YOU INTERNET

I wonder what it's like to game on those angled monitors the casters have. Worse for neck/back?

Its just the decision of forcing high ground without Agha or enough farm on envy. Its not even the push that they did without pie, since the siege began prior to that. They loss so many heroes which gave lots of gold for axe and centaur. With all the advantage that c9 had, they should have farmed more until Envy can snowball in net worth.
Game should have been comfortably won by c9. The reason draw didn't hurt was that axe/centaur's net worth were comparable with hers, which shouldn't happen at all given their advantage. I think bkb before S&Y was way more important for drow (almost allways). Bad call to go bkb as 5th item is just to late against the burst centaur and other skills.
Late bkb was fine. C9 didn't need it early, and even with it nothing would change. What they needed was to dodge fights because they were not farmed enough to go high ground. And its strange too since there was no hurry to do so.

Aui's scepter decision was big.

i like the silent movie drama of sheever/LD on the keyboard there

EE had a triple wraith band (sold) - Sange Yasha - Skadi into butterfly.
gank on drow translated into another 2 - 3 kills is easily enough gold to comeback into the game, after they couldn't burst anyone down, TT counter initiates and it gets gruesome on completely squishy C9 (who was their tank suppose to be exactly?). Windranger crap hero still needs a buff.

The c9 picture they showed had sing in it heh.
|
I like that they're using an old-ass C9 picture that still has Sing.
It also makes it look like Aui doesn't have eyes.
|
C9 didn't need a tank. They just need familiars/drow/wr taking potshots at towers and slowly chipping them off with pie ready to bail envy out. They need to be big enough that tinker can't withstand their potshots. Treads wraith Sny skadi is not big enough. They needed 1-2 more items on drow.
Axe and centaur wouldn't have gotten so much farm had c9 not die forcing high ground.

I thought it was a joke meme that "eg plays the same thing all the time" but it's in this interview? Literally no team has a more diverse pick/strat pool. Old DK comparable but they dead.
