Yeah 2 rax down at 26 minutes.... The comeback potential here is maybe 1 in 5000.

It's beta, calm down.
I am more thinking about the players insistence to pause in a team fight.

Do you suggest that they never use what pauses are intended if there were issues and play even if it's lagging or PC goes to hell or are you accusing them of cheating ?

why are you only raising this question when secret pauses and not OG .. what if i told you that you could use the same reason as you whenever OG pauses even if it were not fights that they are tactically pausing and discussing the game
this is a quote

yeah when your teammate's PC crashes you should just lose the fight because of it I agree
Now that you mention it, then yes. But I am of course still refering to the "coincidence" that it happens in team fights, where the margin of error happens the most.

You have to pause when your com freezes or something. Maybe icefrog will insert a small delay into pauses. Like pauses happening only 0.5 seconds after the pause button is pressed.[/QUOTE]

They did not, they took a rax and lost 2 cores out the game and the gold swing from that must have been a fair whack, especially due to Alchemist getting that. 900 gold to chen in there.

That is why custom lobbies should have a tiny delay too but not a 3 seconds one

VP got almost not gold since they all used buyback, so 60% reduced gold.

Given the lineup, I would take that trade any day.

Naix the only one to bb?
But i thought they could have waited especially after the bb from naix. Just out, but seems rtz had pc problem again so that might have been unlucky

There were 3 buybacks, LS, Alch, and Nyx (I believe)

And yeah, I dunno, you can argue it's questionable, but a 2 melee rax advantage is so insanely insurmountable at this point in the game, even if you're 15k NW behind.

why are you only raising this question when secret pauses and not OG .. what if i told you that you could use the same reason as you whenever OG pauses even if it were not fights that they are tactically pausing and discussing the game
Pauses are most likely intended for an agreed upon pause between two parties, or you pick an opportune moment to have it. If you pause at a time where it only ends up being an advantage for you doing it, and disadvantage for opposing party, you are now using a tool to mentally rock your opponent in a game where mentality and precision matters the most.

I didn't raise it yesterday, and OG was the target of them 3-4 times in the same game.

GG secret, Arteezy played mid so good.

A bit questionable by EE, but I enjoy seeing games like this from Secret.

His argument was they could've backed off after the bot lane but instead traded DK+Jugg for the top melee

Radiance alchemist don't work every game. Sometimes you just need to build your hero in a way that allows you to chop down heroes with right clicks. Secret had a lineup that did not give a shit even if the alch is standing there for and hour slowly burning with radiance and spray, or patting heroes with his shit DPS.
