What are these drafts from Secret. Almost no lockdown, then you pick DP and Sven?

Each of the heroes are fine, but together you're expecting miracles from all of your cores to make it work.

Pretty sure Real Madrid could have something to say about that....

Historically, Real Madrid should have won CL like every other year for last 20... But they havent. Theier Galcticos style has not been successfull in thropies. But its been a success in making them the biggest club in the world... + the 2 CL throphies last 3 years ofc makes a differnece, but they are not the same as before (Galcticos) imo

They either won league or win champions league they are more than successful for what they do. Since 1999 they have only had 3 season where they did not either win champions league or the league title, thats pretty outstanding

Well.. not to take to much away from RM, but they have played in La Liga... Look at who won La Liga the last 50 seasons... Its 90% Barca or RM... Before theier Galacticos style they won it 5 times ina row from 86-91. they won it 32 times in total since 1932... Meh, whatever...

They play in a league where Barcelona and Real got the bulk of the TV money, and 90% of the teams have a budget on par with a championship side, while Barcelona and Real can pick from any side in the world.

As he said, Galacticos was never as successful, because team composition was not thought through, but just getting star players for shirt sales in mind - and precidency PR. Any successful team needs so-called water carriers to set up star players. Having 5 or 11(22) star players that just want to be the star will never work.

Atl. Madrid and Leicester are proofs of team success over star quality with team compositions.

Everyone can improve or recede, but what are we supposed to talk about? "Let's wait until the tournament ends before making judgements"? That's really boring

Universe getting exposed. Secret should've gone for Zai. Puppey's offlane always requires mechanical prodigies, something Universe isn't even close to being.


Rofl no. Universe has been slumping for 6+ months now but he's been mechanically great in the past. He's got the abilities somewhere in there but there's obviously some problem somewhere.

I disagree. Universe has never been a top-tier laner, not even while EG were dominating the scene. His best attritube is timing for initiation, but Puppey's team (and the current offlane in general, really) require a more complete game. Of course confidence has put him even below his real level, but that doesn't come out of nowhere. PPD always accounted for his weaknesses, Puppey expects him to account individually for the drafts' iffy spots; it's a complete reversal of the situation.

That's actually wrong, Universe was an absolutely top tier laner, especially in 1v2. He was a safe player and didn't often go for risky plays like iceiceice who could open the match right open or feed like an idiot but he is/was definitely very very good.


To me that's the definition of not top-tier. He can coast through a simple game but he can't gain advantages where there were none to begin with (which is what the top-tier players do). He's top-tier at other aspects of the game but for someone who has been playing professionally since Dota 1 and never made any waves outside of ppd's cozy leadership people really liked to inflate him as some sort of higher being who was above Dota.

Your definition of being a top tier laner is being risky? Universe gained plenty of advantage in lanes, especially in dangerous ones where others would feed.

As far as his abilities before ppd, he was a good player before (definitely the best Dignitas player) and he definitely improved in EG, maybe the team made him look better than he was but that can be said about pretty much anyone.

Dear casters,

The word "versing" is not a real one. Please stop saying "when you're versing a riki, you want to buy sentry wards". It sounds horrible, and most of you do it. This has been a public service announcement
