Earthshaker is the hero of the tournament Pretty sure thats lina Storms been good too. Well yeah storm has been picked a lot. But lina is the most picked (26 games) and has 65% winrate
Winrate stats like that don't mean that much. It really depends on what teams have had the opportunity to pick it up, how the execute, and how it works into their strategy.
(Obviously in the long run if its significantly different than the rest of the heroes it might mean something, but I still think its depends more on the team that picks it)

Please do explain what happen after game 1. The funny thing is azarkon isn't lying about being a fan
He is lying about the whole East vs West debate, he was clearly on the side of the West.

Oh its time for a comcast service outage?

anyone else think dazzle is such an overrated support?
if the carry can actually do something during the 5 seconds of grave, you probably dont need grave at that point and just require glimmer capes and guardian greaves, which other supports can buy (and probably easier too, since they probably have better farming abilities)
also dazzle has his poison touch completely ignored, meaning dazzle is basically a 3 skill hero that doesnt provide as much as say, a gyro does His weave is a game fight winning skill if properly placed. And Grave means that other teams can't pick burst centric line-ups.
but my point is, grave can be replaced with solar crest and glimmer cape, meaning dazzle can be replaced with other supports with better utility, maybe even cm

Is this tourney the death of Shadow Fiend picking in the pro scene?

Yeah dem stats just show to me that teams highly overrate SF.

Dazzle counters Lina who is a pretty hot pick right now.

grave can't really be replaced by any of that.

you know what heroes i miss?
magnus and invoker Ye, Invoker is always fun to watch. Also what happened to Death Prophet? you cant pick a mid who can do things only with ulti up , and towers dont worth the same so its less profitable to push early like it was before. I'd actually disagree. I feel like DP could be a niche pick (similar to VG vs EHOME game 1) Pugna. If teams bring out the hero against the correct lineup, DP could still be a really strong pick.
i think it's also because of how DP's ult works
it's slow chip damage over time, not an instagib burst

DP certainly could be a niche pick. You would need a lineup that can stack like crazy and repel attempts to go on her. Maybe with a Naga support, and I don't know what else.
She's terrible in this meta because Leshrac does what she does a lot better but thing is, Leshrac can't be played.
Still, she's in a real bad place as a hero.

I was on the side of the West before Ehome won, but in no way was I on the side of the West after it.

Thing is Euls is a one-item counter to Shallow Grave and is 100% core on Lina. If she's not setting up a kill with it she can finish one.
