Megacreep comeback doesn't even have the same meaning anymore. Even EE could pull it off by dropping his TP for a stick.

This game degenerated into a complete ranked pub from a single throw by Miracle.


I would need to watch previous years to remember clearly, how the game felt at 50-60mins but it feels like it's far harder to cleanly initiate these days. With so many defensive items, heroes being so tanky and so on, you sometimes can hardly even jump supports. And then if you do jump, they will have enough gold to buyback anyway and you'll lose rosh because you made the mistake of trying to initiate and blowing your cds

They need to fix buyback dota, like only allowing heroes to TP 5secs after buyback.

Yes, more spectre buffs please.

Mistakes is one thing, but Ana not buying back is beyond head scratching.

When people say "this was a bad game" do they mean the game was boring or more in the lines of "people are making mistakes with $15 mil on the line"?

Game was insane tbh. Teams are incredibly win-hungry, and it shows both ways.

Everybody means something else, but the words are the same.

exactly, if TL wanted to hit the building they were damned well gonna do it, Ana BB or not. They even held ravage to secure that ancient kill

Well, OG can force a fight outside of t4 area, no? After all it is not the Mineski vs Secret game 3 scenario where it is a lone hero against 5.

We need more events on the map on top of roshan and bounty runes! Those events could give buyback charges!

They had hit that timing where they would kill Liquid. They overextended, got punished, had a quick rosh timing, and then Ana not buying back sealed a winning game into a loss.

That would discourage team to go on the offensive. I suggested TP cooldown after buyback so it won't affect teams who go on aggressive plays.

You know you have to bb in that situation anyway, so you can use it right away. It also helps with the timer because the next bb will come earlier up.

That said if Liquid win 5 games with TA today, it will be a hilarious story and will probably bury TA harder than it did wisp and bat back in a day.
