I feel like people tunnel-vision a lot when talking about how impossible high-ground is. Focus too much on the big name matches that often feature the same teams (EG has had limitations at high-ground since 2014 now, it's a team thing not a patch thing), forget about the thousands of matches that end without as much as a bump.

If EG is bad at going high ground, no western team is good at it lol.

The true way to balance comeback gold is to give every hero different comeback gold multiplier (aka spectre)
Since when did EG become the pillar of going high ground? They are much better at defending it, when they had Universe to spam DS.

Few teams better than OG at going high ground in the West; patient, methodical, and pick timings and items to do so, while being masters of the split push also.

Thing is G's been a top tier mid for so many patches that it's quite hard to say "this hero is his hero" because regardless of team G always puts on good performances. Not every game maybe, but he doesn't have long droughts.

I like when Sumail completely owns in a game and all the Sumail haters are quiet .

He is a player that loves to be aggressive. He loves to fight and sometimes he dies. People fault him for it, but players want the ball.

I'm sure it's his personality that makes people dislike him but I really like Sumail's playstyle and would like to see more of it. He has the type of mindset in game where he wants to prove he's the better player by playing matchups where he's at a disadvantage or just going for these crazy kills as opposed to your conservative pro mid laners. I do think his best heroes has been nerfed and people like to point out his hero pool

From my perspective, I think TI5 EG also just supported Sumail the best. If Sumail fed in lane and was setback, EG made it a priority to stack as much jungle camps and make as much space to ensure he had a way back in. I never really saw that when RTZ was in the roster.

I mean, whether or not he dies a lot, makes mistakes, or whatever is harder to fault for if he doesn't actually lose his team the game, right?

Exactly. And EG plays around it most of the time, where they have players like Fear and Aui who use the space Sumail makes to farm. Its just sometimes he get rekt and its sad.

I've been waiting to see Sumail on Puck. That is 100% his kind of hero.
