Now it is a dilemma. I want MVP to win, but if OG wins and then MVP wins my bracket would be great.

People had MVP figured out. You HAVE to take away BOTH bounty and riki from them.

I think picking timber vs MVP in general is a really bad idea. Even when Timber wasn't dying he seemed to do way less than what we normally see super farmed timbers do. MVP always seems to do a great job of almost ignoring the timber and just killing the rest of his team while he can't seem to do anything about it.


Not really. If OG's 2-5 had a little more farm relatively (if MVP didn't disengage and reengage perfectly at Radiant jungle), they wouldn't all die in like 3s. That's the only reason why MVP's ignoring Timber. They kill the +4 before Timber can do anything. But if they can't (ie. more farm on OG), Timber would go rampant.

PA is overbuffed cancer hero, wtf.


80% of the people I talk to claim she is complete garbage because apparently, you can buy Silver Edge on every hero.

Silver Edge does not make dagger not stun your ass every time and remove half of your hp every other time.

Yes, i am salty about this hero.


There can not be an OP hero that no one is picking , its against sound logic to assume there is a broken hero in the game and the teams ignore it .....

It took something like 3 months of Timber being broken for teams to start picking him all the time.


Timber is really good but far from broken mate , he was a bit too strong when teams picked 4-5 strength heroes , but he isnt god tier liek you claim PA is.

Notice that the only one calling PA god tier here is you.


It started with you complaining about the hero , why would you complain about a hero which isnt broken ? there are always "good" and "bad" heroes in the game , lets drop it , we arent getting anywhere with it , cheers and lets enjoy the games ! if i missunderstood you , sorry.

PA isn't even their strongest hero. Wisp bristle is by far the scariest thing MVP can pull out. QO slark is probably stronger than his PA and gets banned out second stage regularly. Same with his Naga and Alch.

It's just on the video.

You typically put some pointers on a video scene (like a QR code) and then you can track that position relative to the camera and just 3d render on top of it. Considering Valve has an entire VR lab, I'm guessing they're using more sophisticated tracking though.

Timber WAS a good pick. He did his part. But eventually just supps both died in 3sec and jugg couldnt do the damage needed.

Because you can have a bad hero that still leaves a sour taste after games with him. Don't you know how salt works?

My point is that PA is fine hero on top of that (overbuffed even, IMO).

Stats don't lie: 5-0 with PA, 2-8 without

Also, QO's Naga is at best mediocre, micro aside.

Can people stop pretending MVP won this game because of 'RNG', they engage and disengage and re-engage better than any other team in this tournament does (and no, this is not the same as saying they are the best team overall). Whenever their bashes don't work -- and that happened plenty -- they bail out very well and wait for the next chance to hit, same with PA going in and out; rewatch the game and focus on Barathrum, then do the same for PA and Void too if you like, none of them play anything close to 'rightclick and rng shit', those guys micro their heroes more than literally anyone in Dota does and they do it well.


* absolutely this, that was just beautiful by MVP

MVP.P rolled the dice on their best strategy and heroes. And it almost went really badly.

Let's see how everyone adjusts.
