If VP didn`t have Brood and Tiny who are kinda stupid heroes, they`d lose that so hard.

Well, still, VP made much harder than it should have been

They played it safe but they they don't know how to play safe, it's hindering them at TI. They should embrace their hothead qualities which win them games throughout the year.


Yea they're playing too scared. Time to let go and davai. Pick good lanes, pick mass disables/burst and just plowwww

Fuck i just realized the 22-50 kill score.

This is a pub, not a TI top8 match.


I see it more like Dota has achieved a meta where kills are profitable when you want to win. Instead of risky as in League (historically at least) where you have 10 kills in an entire game.

LoL They did so many things right (skillshot spam is so satisfying) but the meta has not changed since the beta, they really fucked up somewhere.


I personally think the dash, skill shot spam etc is what is getting them stuck. Is like Battlerite light with some ARTS elements tacked on.

I can't tell, I gave up on LoL when dota 2 transitionned to open beta (got a key from TL at the very end of the clsoed beta when TL was giving tons of them). And every time I gave a try to LoL it was still stuck in the 1 1 1 2 laning phase with linear power curves.

If Optic didn't have Huskar in the first game, they would end up just like in this one lol.

WW instead of jakiro and it might have worked? Though lane for alch would have been even worse.

No after all the nerfs that have happened and the addition of super urn, it`s not the dumbest shit.
Brood was a situational draft winner and now it`s very difficult to counter it without letting it have fun for a long time.
Tiny with a smart team looks like a hero with longer legs, tbh. The ability to remove supports and synergize with loads of abilities and throw stuff is pretty good.

They could have mitigated it at least a bit like Synd said they could, with different lanes. I believe, anyway.
