Theban ? Or is he not black ?

He's Sri Lankan, so no.

They're really stylish

I really like the photos the players took this year (the black/white individual ones)

I like the poses the most this year. They have the wacky shots and just the really generally fun.


The Media Package has been really good this year. They've also figured out how to humanize the players a lot more, which, oddly, has a lot to do with Slacks. Also, sad Fade & adrenaline rushed Notail were real moments.

Getting flashbacks of faceless koreans but yeah they really did a good job bringing out the story of each player on each team this year.


Why everyone liked BossToss (MC). Though Taeja's inability to clap properly will always live in SC Lore.

I mean, i thought we already learned in EG and Mineski games that Void into Rubick is fine.

Of course, first pick is always favored in meta where you have more broken heroes than first phase bans.

I think Liquid's players are proficient at pressing W after Chronoing. At least, I have more confidence in them doing it more than Nikobaby.

I actually think that there is no need to. Because Fy screwed his team once with stolen chronosphere in group stage as is. There is far too much communication and chemistry required not to chrono your team with stolen chrono.

in starcraft scene i really like the cocky little asses

not so much in dota scene for some reason

perhaps dota pros already show their emotions and opinions alot more than the starcraft pros

In StarCraft the main competitive games are 1v1s. If you are arrogant, that's because you have qualifications to.

In team games, being arrogant little shit just leaves a bad taste because you know... a team.

SC is 1v1, but Dota is 5v5. You want different aspects in your players.

Ehhh, I could see OD as a counter to the Chrono combos but that would severely limit LGD's early options.
