Not slot efficient enough. Awkward build up power curve. Useless crit stat. Botrk is popular, so warmogs first can be some what punished.

Pretty much you can build sunfire cape and botrk and get more done in those 2 slots.

This talk about spectating and plays reminds me of the old brood war series called Pimpest Plays. Wish we still had that for Lol/Dota, that series was always pretty sick.

I downloaded all the pimpest plays once and watched one at least once a day. They were that good. The sparsity of videos made them so much sweeter.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

It's funny because I think 'The Play' at TI2 is my favourite e-sports moment ever, but I probably couldn't describe in detail exactly how and why Na'vi turned that fight around. Link to youtube of said play

A good spectator e-sport should be like that - specifics aren't important but someone who is seeing the game for the first time *should* be able to tell you the general facts of what is going on.

Did you watch it live? becuz I think the commentors at that time explained it pretty clearly. It's pretty straight forward.


The explanation that I understand is that iG basically had it in the bag but failed to account for the BKB on Na'vi. So it was actually probably better to think that it was an epic turnaround by Na'vi :p.

Also good to note is that the tidehunter ravage (the mass aoe stun with tentacles) was mistimed as well as the BKB should never have gone off. though thats mostly due to a bug where knockups are handled differently in dota 2 compared to dota 1.

There were no bug, Tide's ravage has cast time, and its tentacle has travel time, BKB has no cast time, you can literally spam the button to get it off. It's very hard for Tide to time it right because if he stays far from the battle, he has to time his tentacle right, and if he stays next to Enigma he risks grouping 3 allies together. Saying Tide mistimed his ravage is a such a lazy way to put the situation.

The only one that play good in that fight was Dendi, but even him got lucky because normally after casting ravage, Tide has to cast 3rd skill so that his ravage will not be stolen by Rubick, and then again, Tide's 3rd skill has cast time, while Rubick's spell steal doesn't. Dendi forcestaffed out too far and barely make it in range to steal the Tide's ravage.

IN dota 1 you can knock up people who are invulnerable due to sleep. which makes them auto stunned if they come down after the song ends. literally preventing BKB from ever being used. thats the bug i'm talking about.

I remember something like that in dota1, not sure if it's Tide's ravage though. But even so, it's not what happened. Tide clearly used ravage after the sleep was over, you can see the creepwave start moving and Jugg's spin before ravage was casted.


Anyway, this is something we are gonna have a hard time to understand if watching it live. You can only throughout understand the battle after rewatching it. It goes for both LoL and Dota2.

I played single player, so yeah.

Unless the random rare junk (not elite) you get at level 50 is better than that.

Most champions who will sit on atmogs, will actually get AD equal to a BF sword from the atma's passive. Still thrash though.

Eh.. Its not thats its bullshit. many games are uncarry-able within reason. you have to be vastly better than the players around you to carry some games. Assuming any given person can play as well as double lift and using that as an argument that anyone can win every game is dumb.

I've seen plenty of pro players on smurfs lose games because of teammates.
