I can understand to a point. Farming with your illusions while you are at base feels good. But after feeding literally 5 aghs...
Also these feeded aghs was not even necessary. I mean.. Skywrath aghs sucks. Naix aghs just for fun. Oracle good to a point. Feeding himself somewhat acceptable...

Also i hate new shiva trend too. Alch isn't the best late game carry but going "caster" with alch is the ultimate absurdity.

Skywrath aghs was actually keeping Newbee in the game closer to late game.

You've probably just improved at dota if you're noticing mistakes more often. I'm pretty sure the general level of play has gotten much higher every year.

Then how come average MMR of EG has dropped a whole thousand since TI5?

Haha, poor RTZ, stops burning him.

I am not even kidding, pretty much everyone on EG has a lost a whole thousand of MMR since TI5. Universe was almost 8.5k during TI5, ffs.

Did we really need any proof that solo MMR was not that important?

Well, actually, i am making an argument that EG are indeed worse than TI5 EG skill-wise.

You wouldn't be saying that if SWM was on EG's team that game.

It's EG vs Ehome in the bottom of the 2 Upper Bracket of TI again. Both won 2-0.

Let's hope we can get another EG in the Upper Finals. (And maybe EG can win one this time.)

EG was burying expectations, it's even better than hiding strats.

your argument is counter-intuitive - if EG wins despite dropping in solo MMR over time, that shows that MMR doesn't actually prove much

Rose colored glasses.

These teams are better than any team that played even last year, let alone two or three TI's ago.

Yeah, it's just that in the old days without the comeback mechanics you needed huge throws to change a game's outcome past a certain point. I remember a stat that before the changes, a 10 k gold lead at 25 minutes had like a 95% winrate at the time.

Actually this stat was even more in favor of winning team after comeback mechanics.

Alchemist sort of fucks it up, however.


I don't think so. I remember when VP threw the "biggest game ever" or when DK threw at TI4 against LGD, they were behind 25K gold with better late game. That kind of scenario happen way more often now, and not always with Alch.

I enjoy watching old games and it's quite funny seeing casters lose their shit when a kill nets a 1k gold bounty.

I don't think it makes it that far. Expect him 2nd phase even the next two. The main thing is teams haven't figured out a Safelaner that can match up.
