Sure, LGD is capable of winning in the first 25 minutes, but is LGD a team that pushes through in 25 mins? That's what Empire is asking.

So uhm, I just came home. First game scheduled at 19:00 and its 22:00 now. What happened? Long game or technical difficulties?

Empire won the picks again.

Save this one for later folks.
I ran the calculations. Empire got a 123 points in the draft, LGD got 94.

Completely objective of course.

I guess it's better than when people say "oh they lost during the draft," 50 minutes into the game.

Empire's draft is actually pretty sexy IMO.

Provided LGD doesn't just roll them early and provided Silent doesn't throw hard, they have the inevitability this game.

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.


i never said i want different dota. i'm just annoyed by lgd's "we won't do shit until you force the issue and fuck up" style. then again, xiao8 has to win with yao in his team so i kind of get why he does it

Jeremy Lin's MMR is probably better than his NBA play


hater detected. why hate on people whos better than you in every aspect? does it make you feel better about yourself?


lol that's hating?

i was just joking, and it might even be true.


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


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...


How is it possible that a NBA role player (at worst) not be 5k if the Best players are 7k+.

Have you seen an NBA role player play against non-pros (2-3k)? Those players that never get off the bench crush.

There is also the iceiceice method. Haha. But seriously, I was just contemplating on Empire's state of mind, didn't have much to say.

That is how drafting works. EG does the same thing some times. Dota is all about timings and hitting them. If you draft a team that can't do shit after a specific timing, that's how the game ends.
