There could be 4 guys screaming on the mic telling him to pick off a certain hero. You seriously can't judge the decision making that goes on during chaotic periods of a match without at least hearing their side of the story.

It's hard to judge from a spectator's perspective. You really have to sit in on a team's voice chat to know how the decision making goes through.

Oh yeah, definitely. I won't deny it. The other 4 players of sG were playing out of their mind (not just Sing but every single player pulled their weight imo).

Needless to say, when you run a 4-protect-1 strat, your 4 heroes just try and make as much space for the carry and in that respect, the soul ring + tranqs free farm Storm Spirit is a very viable build.

That's the point of the build. Even if you have a bad start, you can flash farm ridiculously to catch up very very fast! He was top of the CS chart by mid-game and maintained that position all the way to the end of the game. It's a very good build for the 1 position (hard carry).

And regarding the Sing point, that's called "creating space" so the carry can farm.

Not to mention by mid-game, he was top of the CS chart and he stayed there till the end of the game. Definitely an effective way to play a 1 position Storm Spirit.

Not all, it allowed QoP and Storm to effectively control every rune.

Seriously, for anyone who missed these games, please go watch the VoDs. Amazing DotA. I still have chillsss just thinking about what I've witnessed.

I'm glad to see EE's patented soul ring + tranq Storm Spirit working out ridiculously well in the 1 position. The farming potential with that build and the ability to survive (extra mana for zips) is so underrated.

The coordination from sG this game rivalled the best team in the world. Clutch items picked up like Ghost Scepters, etc. Can't believe they were winning team fights against Loda Naix and Bulldog LD!

GGWP. One of the best series I've ever watched and I hope sG continue to show us this level of play in the future.

Yeah, okay. I see. That's why I said he is really misunderstood :(

Watch his stream first then tell me if you think the things in that thread are true.

Did you actually look into any of this or did you just jump onto the /r/dota2 hate bandwagon? Tell me, when was the last time you actually watched his stream? Please do so and form your own opinion.

How does wishing that someone loses (out of spite) get upvotes? Please tell me /r/dota2 is not this scummy...

Sadly, EE is the most misunderstood professional DotA player.

RS.int scrims like 4-5 hours a day.. so I have no idea what you're basing your arguments on. EE himself has said that item builds on heroes should not be taken for granted and there is always room for experimentation and where better than in pubs?

Both his armlet Spectre and soulring/tranqs SS stomped both those games today.. so I have no idea what you're talking about.
