OG just had so much control once they got the hexes up and Miracle had the abyssal so he could blow up the Tinker. The risks you take when you have 0 defensive supports.

it's a little surprising we're not seeing more abaddon/shadow demon

the lack of shadow demon is surprising to me too, but abaddon isn't super good with the current meta i think

It's a little bit juvenile, but it's simple and it's timeless.

We let it be known that Schnorkles, for a snack, eats tiny pieces of shit.

You're picturing it and you're talking about it. That's a win in my book.
Na'vi is just letting all the other teams get their hits in before they take their final form.

I think that's because more people are playing it and taking it seriously as a profession. Which, since the popularity keeps growing, is more viable now as tournaments are able to pay out more than they have before.
