VP is going to go all the way. FNG got the drafts figured out and the individual skill and teamplay is definitely there for VP. | ||

I guess it's the idea behind almost every early pick, versatility. | ||

I guess it's ok VP making it to the finals too .. It's very unusual though they are the team you'd expect to get top 4 at most in tournaments where most top teams are there and at least top 8-6 usually. This is their first finals in a topheavy tournament | ||

Wait, what bugging out? When illusions die they apply death debuff to Venge!? It's a rather complex bug to explain with how auras are maintained from multiple sources. Basically if a hero receives an aura from two different sources, the second source to apply the aura doesn't create it's own instance of the aura, but rather just refreshes the existing instance of the aura provided by the first source. If the first source of the aura ceases to exist (usually only Illusions dying since dead heroes still "exist" but are hidden, but some edge cases also exist such as two HoD creeps providing the same aura and 1 of the dies), the second aura source still refreshes the first aura's buff, but the buff does nothing because it's original source is invalid. For anyone other than the source of the aura itself, they can leave the aura radius and re-enter and pick up a fresh instance of the aura and be fine. But for heroes that want to benefit from their own auras, this can be problematic because they can never leave the radius of their own aura and things that generate illusions can cause them to stop benefiting from their own aura until they die again. TL;DR Illusions/Aura interactions can cause Venge to lose the benefit of her own Vengeance Aura until she dies sometimes. | ||

EG better bring their A game or start bringing some comeback line-ups because WR-QoP is not something that is good at playing from behind. | ||

Yeah I've enjoyed this cast far more than some "proper caster" casts (outside this tournament) It's the same as with HSC in Starcraft (which this was modeled after). However, I feel like a large part of the attraction here is that it's so refreshingly different. If all casts were like this, I don't think people would like it as much and I think it's perfect to have one tournament where players do casual casts. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love it, but it would be a bit out of place during like TI finals. | ||

But yeah, not much hype, so not as good for you if you're into that. But even so, by not focusing on hype for fights, they get more analysis in, so it's still a tradeoff. | ||

I think "play-by-player + colour comentator" is default in all kinds of sports, from football [the one you actually play with feet most of the time] to pro wrestling. Still, the way they banter with each other (esp. with Bulba) was cute <3 | ||

Virtus Plow is a well-coined term from CS:GO. Casters use it all the time in that game. No controversies there. | ||

They're better at that, and better at providing interesting insight into the game. The difference is worlds apart in terms of analytical insight compared to casters. And I just personally can't stand people yelling play-by-plays trying to hype the game. For me its about the game itself and the plays, not the hype. | ||

They could jsut ban SF imo, G has been godlike evey game no matter the hero he plays or how well his team performed, I think they could abuse this. He's also almost sackable as he manages to get a huge impact even after a difficult laning phase. | ||

If you listened to Fly and Bulba when Game 3 was ending, they actually predicted this as one of the options that FNG could have gone. FNG could have picked Radiant, but decided to choose First pick again to pick up SF on Dire. If you look at the 3rd bans on both sides, thats really where the draft starts. There's a lot more to drafting that just picking heroes, it's a lot about mentality and mindgames that come into play. PPD is fine with VP having SF Dire, VP is fine with EG having Dazzle Gyro. The rest of the draft is where it gets interesting due to the longer series. | ||

But ye, ice3 can speak singlish so it can be hard for some people to listen. Though just to be clear, because this stuff isn't confusing enough: Singlish is not what he's speaking right now. Singlish is effectively a distinct language, which isn't really mutually intelligible with English. So there's Singaporean English, like there's American English, Australian English, British English, Scottish English, etc., and then separate from all that is Singlish. Whee! | ||

They wouldn't even have needed to fly out early, they could easily have adjusted their sleep schedule before leaving for murica. However, even if they did that they would still be knackered at this point after playing a ton of officials today | ||

He was buying euls first on a lot of heroes back then though. just makes sense tho imo. if youre going 4-0-4-1, the movement speed and mana is quite nice for farming and for fighting. added bonus of being able to use your euls to purge and dodge..dunno, vs silence, it seems strong. less than ideal for an ember, but strong especially for its cost On December 14 2015 09:56 PhoenixVoid wrote: Respect Dark Seer ban out of VP. yeah i mean how could you not. opens the door for rtz sf tho ![]() | ||
