This conversation took a funny turn.

How many games has EE started offlane and sacked himself to get a good start for Misery...? Is this even debatable? You can't gaslight an entire thread of posters that's not how it works.

Nobody is saying that you royal twit. And OG is no doubt better off with n0tail than they would be with EE.

But you're responding to me. But sure, I'll entertain you. Go on ahead and find the comment where somebody is saying that n0tail is the best carry in the world.
|
I think the most valuable thing about n0tail is that he is sort of able to play anything, this allows the team to be built around Miracle and they can pull off certain heroes that give them heavy draft advantages every once in a while. Sometimes he has very questionable games but who cares really if the team wins. Also one of their key drafting edges is due to Wisp+Tiny which no doubt comes quite a bit from n0tail's understanding of how to play it.

"Btw i expanded my point before you never responded to that with actually something related to it either to rebuke and state why or agree instead responded with that flame.". Is it not true Misery and EE tilts? That is pretty relevant to how they respond to being focused. N0tail doesn't tilt, due to that, nor the team. It goes hand in hand with my argument. I wasnt responding to you personally, if you read carefully you'd notice i said "you 2", as in you and the other guy, not just you.

So the comment doesn't exist then. Alrighty.

Yeah though he's not really impressive as a carry in a traditional sense he does contribute in some other way(probably more ingame than anything).
Though if the team is better with him or another proven more effective carry is another question. It could probably end up like maybe vs shiki difference from cdec or the sing vs fata difference of old c9 with aui
well he should understand tiny-wisp he literally been to both sides of the coin and he's an impressive wisp player probably the best from the west as far as i've seen

Just imagine how good they would be.

Due to the stupidly good early game supports like ES, disruptor, Lion, oracle in play this patch. The safelane and mid are going to be heavily pressured from the very beginning, This will make it hard for a traditional dual core team with two greedy players. One significant sign of the early game pressure is that there are less jungle stacks in this tournament. The supports are just too busy moving around instead of stacking. Both EG and Secret seemed struggling in trying to protect their carries while their Chinese counterpart just picked more aggressive support, because Chinese carries are more used to being sacked early game, Meanwhile, the offlane #3 position is having a better day due to the camp change, we have seen numbers of games that the #3 getting better farm than the mid or safelane. So maybe a farmed #1#3 and a less-consuming tempo-based #2 is the better answer, which means Alliance. Players like FATA/S4/notail should be given more credits this patch, the ability of consuming less team resources but still being effective as a carry is extremely valuable.

N0tail fits the style of OG, which is why they are successful at 70+% winrate.
He gets flak from people that don't understand strategy or the depth of dota. In essence people that are clueless, and only understand flashy players like Miracle, and fail to understand that much of Miracle's easy integration into top dota, is much due to N0tails teamspirit and space creation.
How well did Balkan Bears do featuring both W33 and Miracle? Non factor.

Even though N0tail is playing the position 1, most times his role is to create space for miracle and moon. He is a fake 1, used to draw attention to himself and let the team build around Miracle.
N0tail fits OG perfectly because of his big hero pool and willing to sacrifice himself for a more even gold spread. It's called strategy and even though you may think it sucks it seems to work for OG.

It's always hard to say change how bringing in a new player would change the team. Noone can know from the outside how a team works exactly. A lot of people were raving for example about VG when Hao replaced Black, but instead their results got a bit worse overall unless I'm mistaken. c9 thought they were upgrading when they got Misery & n0tail, but instead the new team just didn't work as well as the old one.
In n0tail's case for example at least I have the impression that he is fairly active in providing ideas in terms of how to play the game, how to draft, etc. Some things you can analyze from gameplay (though as we see in this thread with very different interpretations), some things are impossible to know without being with the team.

Yeah some changes might actually ruin shit that worked out. You would be lucky if the change just meant like what happened when sing got swapped by fata which the team got generally better.
I honestly thought that Hao is the better carry than Black for VG (well i still do think so i mean generally Hao is better overall than black ) turns out while VG had shit times with black but they didn't peak too much like they did with black.

You are trying to argue and while losing your points, you try to create another point not made(and still fail), and act like I am you, and have the audacity to claim I leaving my main argument made. Then you try to make another point that what OG does is not unique, and I should talk about other teams, rather than OG, while my argument still rings true. And finally you proceed to claim I say that EE sucks, when I did no such thing.
How is EE and Misery tilting not true? C9 were infamous for being tilters, being very emotional players.

Goody may not be expressing himself the best but come on dude. You may have a point in OG supports using their time better in deciding who to protect and when and where to be than EG or Secret currently (if that was part of your point), but the way you worded things originally is just bullshit, as proven by how Secret has done things in a lot of games after they were formed.
Also pretty sure when Goody talks about the "EE sucking" comment it is about you saying "EE tilts" out of nowhere when it apparently had no relevance to the discussion.
