I miss the days when TI featured pristine quality dota. That was a good game with some big plays but also many many sloppy plays that made me feel like I was watching a pub.


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.

Stats don't lie, win expectancy with gold advantage in 6.82,6.83 and 6.84 was higher than in 6.81.

But then IF brought back Doom and Alchemist and it all went to shit.

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.

There is none, to be honest. Melees get fucked by caustic, Ranged just get dived and roll over to stun+1

Your only hope against any serious SK+1 duo lane is someone who can catch up later.

Yeah, the Ehome vs Alliance winner pretty much was assured Top 8 as a result of the way the lower bracket played out.

If teams still ran safelane Razor, SK would run into a brick wall.

Damn... I dunno but I feel that Liquid would be better off facing EG rather than NB. But the hell do I know...
NB and Tl have similar playstyles it feels but for now NBs style execution is a bit more crisp
