Also, can we say without trolling now that VG with Black^ would do better or have we to wait until VG gets eliminated ? Well at least they wouldn't have done worse, this much is pretty 100%

Considering that Black^ consistently has some of the worst TI results, i would say VG would do at least as well with Hao as they did with Black^.

Yeah, but this whole "Black^ is the heart and soul of VG" thing is going to keep popping back up cause people didn't even realise VG was a team before Black^ joined it. Maybe if Black^ was the drafter/captain/motivator who kept the team together, then there'd be an argument for it, but as it is, I think people are just salty cause Black^ is such a nice guy.

Real talk, it's cuz he's white.

I can't imagine the sparks if EE joined PPD's team.


Apparently the offer was on the table but EE turned it down. EE also has a massive hard on for PPD


I thought EE was on the shortlist, him and Fear.

this is my understanding as well


I don't think PPD and EE have anything against each other. I think it will do EE a lot of good to not have to lead a team and have someone else set up the situation to show off his biggest potential.



eg played quite well with ee as a standin when fear got injured a while ago. i think it's something that could potentially happen. there might be some enmity between jacky and curtis tho because of what happened during that team shuffle a months ago. i guess it's silly to speculate about this stuff. there is a good number of decent carry players as free agents in na currently - yawar, tralf, ritsu, patsoul (is he still around?) to name a few


I think people hate on EE too much. I am pretty sure he was the first NA born player to lead a team to win a global LAN (MLG) in Dota 2.

Your sneering's starting to sound a little desperate. Pretty much all your predictions have been either trivial (secret and eg are the favourites? wow, no shit) or wrong.

3 western teams in group b top 4, not more than 1 chinese team in top 6, empire the third best team, ehome not able to beat vp, cdec not able to get past cdec, the list goes on and on.


When did I say Ehome won't be able to beat Virtus Pro, that CDEC won't be able to win C9, etc.?

So the last time I watched any DotA was TI4, and I certainly haven't played it since then ...

Can someone give me a really quick and dirty summary of the metagame shifts?

n 6.84, a bunch of new items were introduced that made Int-based cores like Leshrac, Storm, and core Lina much more viable. Gyro also received some buffs, making him a top-tier carry (primarily due to his strong lane presence for a hero who scales so well late)

Quick question regarding this
Eventually none of the new items is core item in the carry int
Of course ocatarine is a good super late game item
But it isn't the first choise item
Instead it was the resurgence of bloodstone that create carry int

And eul to lesser extend, previously a support item

Yeah that's fair, it's not just "they introduced Octarine," it's like "they introduced Octarine, and they buffed some heroes, and Bloodstone builds out of Soul Ring and is more popular, and people remembered that Lesh is good, and..."

And... Imbalance demands it

most people who are C9/EE fans just brush off the hate. TBH this post isn't that bad at all. It's reasonable to think that Aui and EE aren't on good terms. Imagine if your best friend on the team booted you in the way that EE did. I would be salty/mad as hell.

In this very thread, the latter like 2 hours ago. I believe the exact wording was 'but CDEC won't get past C9'.

Hm. I swear he did that during TI3. And then again during TI4.

I'm glad to hear that some things never change~!
