Yeah but if you listen to some of his perspective as a former pro-player him and blitz really looks up Ceb for moving out of the casting role into player again against all odds. Then winning TI.

So he probably wants too but he can't get the good carry players

The story of the last 2 TIs is the same. 2 teams way above the rest of the pack, and that's saying something if the pack itself is extremely high level.


Was the pack that good this year?

How can it be good when game is just getting more random over years?

??
is this bait?

You can treat it as one. In my book, the more variables there are in game, the more random outcome gets.

what do you even mean by more variables? is this just a dusty "bounty runes and talents are bad for the game" take?

Not "bad", just "random".

I just kind of find it funny that his most defining moment in TI is his euls play.

Is Liquid going to be able to stick to targets this game? Even outside centaur ulti there is a lot of kiting potential. Also that huskar scares me.

Kyle's other issue is he could never get along with a coach, so he could simply get out drafted too often. Or he could never find carries that could do anything but run lane-pressure drafts.
