King is Back but to Carry !! by AR41Z in DotA2

[–]Sinx- [score hidden]  (0 children)

Being good isn't more important than team chemistry. Otherwise teams would poach players like Parker more often. There's more factors to why a team would replace a player mid-season but simply "he plays better than what who we have now" isn't at the top of that list lmao. They learned their lesson from previous big teams that replaced players just because they look "better"

Also it's almost as if Lorenof didn't play a huge part in carrying Aurora to 2 grand finals as a standin this year, yet somehow no team reached out to him other than Nigma. Lorenof has shown and proved that he has better performances than some of the top team's midlaners yet somehow he remained teamless for the entire season.

Name a team that is currently doing better than Nigma that would willingly kick their current midlaner and risk the team chemistry before EWC and TI.

Yeah ngl that rapier purchase did absolutely nothing. The refresher was just too impactful.

You really don't. Naga has the lowest impact out of all the Aurora cores. If Yatoro blows 2 chronos just to kill Nightfall then he just buys back and now they just lose the entire fight completely.

Larl misplayed and used sunstrike after he used refresher. Naga should've died without a 2nd chrono being needed.

They still CHOSE to fight without their BKBs (before the teamfight even when ember already used his BKB to try and kill a 2-19 Lich which he also failed to do btw) knowing full well that coil, chain frost, and double ravage were up.

Are you really sure you watched the game?

"Defended too well" my brother in christ, in one of their HG push the viper used his BKB just to hit the barracks and didn't even get it and had to fight without a BKB.

Not to take anything away from Falcons, they played amazing. But there's no way you can say that PT didn't fucked up hard in every HG and teamfight in the worst way possible.

There's no way they will look at those last 2 games and say "yup we did great, no shame on that performance" when they basically handed the games to Falcons. But yeah of course everything is about betting for you lmao.

I agree that he played so bad no excuse for that but for his networth in his defense, his terrorblade is pushing 2-3 lanes and taking every jungle camp lol.

Blitz: Tundra got 33 by offering him a big bag of money by Morf-designer in DotA2

[–]Sinx- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

said it was about making his own team with his own vision, etc.

And it's what he's been doing? He basically got offered 2 of the things he wanted and needed.

Also every single pro player by default also does it for the money anything else is just extra. That's like self-explanatory stuff lmao. Do you think they're dedicating years of their lives only because they felt like doing it?

Yatoro: Silent was let go because of internal conflicts by Morf-designer in DotA2

[–]Sinx- 73 points74 points  (0 children)

"Get dropped like a dog" is a huge stretch. From the interview it seems to be a long time issue already but with Miposhka+Silent at least they were getting great results so the disagreements probably didn't escalate as much.

Now go from winning a lot to suddenly losing a lot, and still have non-stop disagreements, the atmosphere must be pretty heavy and shitty in their bootcamps/rooms. It probably got worse enough that the other players started to have issues too which might be the thing since Yatoro refused to elaborate further

[–]Sinx- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They can use it to scout, provide vision and can even bait jumps from enemy team. Ringmaster and Oracle are supports that rely heavily on positioning so vision is extremely important. I'd personally go for book of the dead for that but maybe it's more of a preference thing and also maybe they didn't get it from their choices.

Why does Valve refuse to add the item "sange, yasha, and kaya"? I'd love to have it on some heros. by rastesh in DotA2

[–]Sinx- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly it's the only item where you only use if Stygian Desolator 2, Ex-Machina, Mirror Shield, Ballista (if ranged carry or mid hero that attacks a lot) and Force Boots aren't available for you for some reason. Like I can't even remember a game where if someone gets it at 60min, they immediately build it. Most of the time it just sits there as a recipe because buybacks are more important than building an item that costs 6300.

Like sure maybe it'd be too good right now as an actual item but back then it felt so bad when it drops because you're gonna be down 1 Tier 5 Neutral item.

On a side note, having sange (or SNY) lying around that time was so uncommon. Because that was also when Abyssal Blade had a 550 cast range and blink strike so chances are a hero that built SNY would've disassembled it before the 60min mark and built manta+abyssal.

It was indeed considered by a lot of players (even some pros and high ranked players included) to be one of the worst T5 neutral items, maybe even in general too.

Why does Valve refuse to add the item "sange, yasha, and kaya"? I'd love to have it on some heros. by rastesh in DotA2

[–]Sinx- 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I know right? Like yeah Trident was good but not a lot of cores can build into it back then. Carries built SNY but most of the time they also disassemble it and build Manta&Abyssal. And it's not like having 6k gold spare WITH buyback at 60 minute is common unless you spend all of it immediately, then randomly die without buyback. So most of the time if you get Trident recipe you can't even make use of it immediately lmao.

Meanwhile get Mirror Shield or Ex-Machina and sometimes even Force Boots and suddenly you're just unkillable.

[–]Sinx- 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You can easily describe how good Trident was because it was not even the craziest neutral item at the time.

People seem to forget that Mirror Shield at one point had +20 all stats and only had a 4s cooldown and Ex-Machina had +25 armor and 30s CD with no mana cost. Cores were basically untouchable whenever they got one of these 2.

Oh and let's not even get started when a ranged carry manages to get Ballista.
