I doubt that he's above 5k, pretty sure his NBA "mmr" would be at minimum 5k


in terms of percentile relative to all the other basketball players in the world all NBA players would be 7k+ MMR

I liked the Void meta, just so I could watch June whiff Chronos like Shaq on the free throw line.

Empire believes their early game is great enough that they're able to get away with this late game easy win.

LGD is the one that needs to push this time.

I mean... they both have blink, but that's where the similarities end.

You know what, that might just be enough for Silent.

if the best players in the NBA are 7k+, Jeremy is not 5k MMR.

And it's not hating to say if someone is not as good in basketball, even though I don't play better than him...

everyone can judge a player even though they don't play the sport/game...

I know, axe counters daz hardcore in game1, i didnt know why lgd ruin their laning phase in hindsight so they could have picked mag and win it with that strong hero they are good at, just saying.

So you want Dota where you can't punish mistakes?
6.82 & 6.83 high ground was stupid because of the broken comeback mechanic they implemented as a knee jerk reaction to all the TI4 complaints which weren't justified. A team can't 5 man push if you are able to fight/kill them.

6.82 & 6.83 wasn't Dota.

It must be because we watch dozens of games in a short period of time

Empire with a much better draft I think.

Of course, any asymmetric draft can look amazing for either team depending on a couple of big plays, but I think LGD might be in trouble.
