Wth are you guys even talking about. They couldn't break hg because they fucking dove base repeatedly with their bkbs and used half their spells on void without killing him

if they don't dive base they don't get to hit the tower either because lol chrono axe eblade iceblast 5wipe. that draft can't kill a base without EG being already dead, it's not luna/sd

my read on that game is EG and EHOME are evenly matched but that draft was literally unbeatable with EHOME's comp. the only reason they even got that far is because they completely shut down EG early and Axe had like a 16 minute blink dagger or some shit and EHOME snowballed a gold lead off that (stuff like Warlock Aghs-Refresher and shit).

Play that game 10 more times, EHOME always lose in 30.


Quoted for someone who actually understands this shit. Once Ehome lost that 1st high ground push attempt (Jugg losing Aegis without Chrono commit) Ehome was already at a disadvantage for the rest of the game. Like I said earlier, Chrono + Axe call are 2 AOE controls that Ehome have no answer for and EG has the burst dmg to follow that control. Ehome had relatively weak initiation in a beastmaster roar (which SD can counter easily). I was surprised that they pushed a lane of rax at all, nvm megas.

I actually think the ogre pick is what lost it for them. The control was nice for earlier game, but I think a more solid support like WW would have been better


Game was never supposed to go that long. For either team's planning.


I agree but I just scratch my head with the decision to pick Ogre. Where did he fit in the plan? They already had rock and roar to lock people down.

LanM's general picking strategy:

1. Did they ban kunkka? If yes, wait, if no, pick kunkka.

2. Did they ban undy? If yes, pick ogre, if no, pick undy.

3. Otherwise, if pocket strategy is planned, pick ET, otherwise, pick ogre.


That might be their ultimate demise if this is true. Ogre is good but situational, not a priority support pick in this meta...

As great of a game it was, it was pretty frustrating to watch at times, especially on EHOME's side.

I think ehome can still take it if they don't tilt (ice^3 looking at you).

I still think there were some super questionable item choices on EHOME that game and multiple timing windows that were missed as a result

But it's very possible to have a team play well and also make ultra-game losing plays. In fact, the better your team plays most of the game the more impressive your game-losing plays become.

Not really, hero did work last game.

But since EG have SD now, they win the game.

second pick warlock
ehome tilted? or genius?
Heaven's Halberd is the most criminally underbought item in Dota. Together we can stop this.

ehome draft was fine, they just made a few key mistakes that cost them the game

Diz.

I think Ehome now tilt and finish at best 4th.

Looks like you might be right. They picked warlock again, just like MVP stubbon PA pick after losing with it.
