Is the 4 position starting to become a core/carry? I'v been seeing Kuro playing a lot of non traditional supports lately

this is what ive been saying for a while now.

if you draft a hero that can be a 4 but transition into a semi-carry and play semi-greedy, you're gonna be better off.

dunno, this is only one game, but its what ive been saying is going to become popular for a while now unless icefrog makes changes to the way gold and xp works.

adding extra camps only makes it 'worse'

I don't think greedy 4th positions will really be here to stay. Just sometimes you'll get away with it. If it catches on teams will adjust their drafting so they can adjust if needed and it will get punished. Kuro always likes playing greedy as fuck heroes anyway.

It's because the current mid hero pool has a lot less ricers, it opens up some farm for the other heroes without sacrificing the pos1.

Pretty hard to pick a greedier support combo than Earth Spirit Beastmaster.

Always nice to see Resolution on his game. Xboct and Aloha both looked good too, though of course there were a couple derps.

But I'm not taking Liquid too seriously in this tournament 'cause they sure aren't.

I think aloha should go for a 2nd BF right now against chen and NP, all empire wants to do is win some more time and a 2nd BF is better than crit right now imo, for teamfights and pushing.
