His ability to carry and make the teammates around him play to the best of their ability puts him at #1 at this point in time
He's just best mechanical player out there. I think it was g1 vs lgd where sylar with TB ultied some support and miracle insta astrals him so he's safe. I watched few of his pubs vods on youtube. He's just fastest player i ever seen.

Yeah, Faker is so miles ahead of his peers that not calling him the best League player would be considered a hate crime.
Dota is so much of a team game that it's hard to consider Miracle great without crediting his team for giving him space to do great things. So how great is Miracle without his team? Would we sing praises for Miracle if he played in some tier 2 NA pub-stack?

I mean he makes fly looks a good player

I don't think famed ricers like EE or RTZ could pull that networth off given how behind OG were most of the game.
He's a morph in a game with no hex (until Lina bought one) or silence. Chrono's the only way to catch him out and the void needs most of his team behind him to have a hope of chainstunning and killing Miracle through morph. His team gave him all the safe farm until he had linkens and they stayed off the map a lot of the time which makes it super hard for LGD to know whether it's even safe to go on the morph.
I'm still impressed with how effortlessly he constantly does little extra things (like all the illusion baits), but he was set up for success this game. And if LGD had had the balls to push when he was dead with no BB, we'd be talking about miracle throwing right now.

But yeah, I think Miracle is the best player at the moment. Swap Miracle with any of the tier 1 mids we have now and watch OG fall to pieces and see the team Miracle goes to rise above the rest. I can't say if they'll win the next Major, but if they do then Miracle would be one of the best candidates for Dota 2 GOAT.

This tournament suddenly got more interesting as 2 of western teams are still in competition of battlefury

Okay, the site would take a while to load, but I did find their copy of the Brackets.
They have Newbee vs LGD & VG vs EG. So I'd take that as "official". Granted, I'd have really hoped it was the other way. Would have made for a better games in the next round.

Wouldn't it be LGD vs VG in the next round either way?

Fly carried Col to the second-worst possible placing at TI5...
He's literally had zero real success with a non-Miracle team.

This tournament suddenly got more interesting as 2 of western teams are still in competition of battlefury So everything Messi does is just because his team provided space and support, he is just as good as every other "flashy" player in the world? Ever stopped to wonder that maybe just maybe, Miracle is the one that makes OG shine and not the other way around. Game 1 vs eg he won pretty much alone, that does happen, even in dota.

Not necessarily related to this game but from what I have seen from following pro-dota during the last 8 years and having played it on a decent level as well for the last 4 my assessment is that miracle is the most gifted player mechanically I have ever seen. Is he the best player period? Hard to say, too much going on at that level for me to judge his game sense, movements and teamwork compared to other top players but if Fata and Matumba says he is the best, I would not be hard to convince.

Col, a team with four players that had never even attended a Dota LAN before getting 9-12th at TI.
Anyway, haters gonna downplay.

Its ok, I understand you, you are just saying that Miracle is the best player in the world, like chocolate icecream is the best taste in the world. It is not a matter of who/what is the best but rather that you like him/it better than any other.
I, personally, try to express in forums more neutral because, like in this case, it is easily misunderstandable. With friends I speak like you do, because they know me and know what I mean with less words or even wrong ones.

You're taking something reasonable (Miracle's probably THE standout player since TI) and going unreasonable places with it. OG wouldn't fall to pieces without Miracle, though they would definitely be weakened (how much none of us can say, let's stop pretending). Miracle couldn't carry any 4 players to relevancy. And GOAT candidates in Dota 2 are people like Puppey or Xiao8, who's won a TI and gotten top 3 3 times playing 3 different positions. Not a guy whose career accomplishments are winning 2 tournaments that aren't TI.
