Let's do this Liquid! What a weird Huskar pick, not sure what that was supposed to counter.

that last fight is why they should just do a max level + items for the all-star match.

All these games go late. They almost always go to cores at 25 rolling in the gold. Everyones always ridiculously cautious about highground.


Uh forget the mushi comment but in spirit he should help.

I think that's more a consequence of the meta disfavoring single-target heroes in all roles. Every relevant pick has AoE or heal in some form.


All about Stuns & Damage amp. LGD was able to run to this far by knowing how to be tankier than anyone else. But, the DPS, currently, eventually overtakes.

Also, Rubick is 2-0 so far in this match.

He had it's problems (both positive and negative) over the years but man i'm happy we're seeing darkseer. Those Vacuum-cliff-initiations to me are a lot more entertaining as initiation compared to blink into centaur stun.

Idk i have seen a game this TI with drow/enchantress/maiden and a bunch of single target heroes practically just making megacreeps worthless.


...those are all heroes that can deal with megas. If Bane and Clinkz were en vogue, we wouldn't be complaining.

MVP should be GH, or else Chalice for constant bad initiation judgment.

W33 is still not convincing this series. Really needing him to step up now or there isn't much left for Liquid.

Yeah, but TA does not care about lost lane, since she can recover in jungle better than she farms lane anyways.

There is a bit too much gold in dota right now. I think it was initially to fix pubs so people would willingly play support.

TL made a critical adjustment: they moved W33ha to the Jungle at level 3/4 and put Gh mid, who could trade better against Huskar. Gh got early 6 and had a lot more levels earlier, meaning he was far more tanky.

Yeah, basically they messed up economy a bit too hardcore. OTOH a game like this at something like TI2 or TI3 would last well over 80 minutes because people would just wait for buybacks for ages.
