Honestly tinker games are either snowballing snoozefest or high ground snoozefests. Like that took about 5 more minutes than necessary. NewBee took the lanes and then map control and then snoozefested a win.

At least Jugg Wisp Bristle can DGAF push high ground.
You can insert any strategy with either you snowball or you don't, if the strategy is snowballing. Tinker is not really about snowballing but adding split pushing options, but that is not all that viable against a Wisp strategy and tanky heroes.

i think people really underestimate how strong the jug-bristle-wisp trio is. i've never seen mvp lose with it


It is a very effective strategy but when the Koreans play it, they always play it into a strategy that doesn't have enough hold.

azarkon is not smart.


You'll see top Western teams win it later. I'm sure they have learned with regards to this strategy after losing the most recent tournament against it.

Newsflash, West no longer has top teams left, huehue.
I think their strategy is to dumpster bad Western teams (c) uriel

Your emphasis is pretty much meaningless, other than stating you find watching strategies that are either snowballing or not boring, while not identifying this isn't about snowballing, since Tinker is not about snowballing.

Just say you find Tinker games boring, and you are good.

Newbee looks extremly strong atm. They surely are favorites for the upsoming major if they can maintain their performance. It will be interesting how they performe at the main stage at Epicenter. But it is pretty clear, that they are in a great shape.

Lol, why so much hate? He keeps these threads alive and at least he tries to actually analyse stuff instead of chanting the name of the best player of the world of the week like most do.

Trolling is ok but hating is kind of over the line.
