Where's Hotbid at this event? He was on the talent lineup.

he's a content producer, not camera talent. You can maybe see him in a segment sometime

He was announced as broadcast talent though.

To be fair they always have people on that list that aren't technically broadcast talent (like the observers for example, or Torte last year who just did behind the scenes stats stuff). With that being said Hotbid could definitely appear on the after show at some point. Maybe even interviews? He's definitely doing more producing tho.

Are you implying he was hiding strats?

Drow pick helped Secret out. Or could just be them saying, you have rubick, we can go whatever we want and win lane stage.

18.18% over 11 games.

The lift is good against weaver though. Solid stun. Fade bolt slows push down. Need to get to level 6 somehow though.

Well, I can always respect playing the heroes you're good at in the critical game.
Average means I'm better than half of you.

it's the trademarked rubick/ogre support duo, one lane lost for sure and no team fight presence. why have it easy when you can do it even if it's really hard

and by doing it, i mean going to the lower bracket

I agree with panel. Clinkz would be great. No stuns that go through Strafe.
