As much as I want notail to be good, I would agree he has been the weakest link on OG pretty much the whole time. Yes, he sacrificed a lot of farm for Miracle, and that might make his performance seem a bit worse, but he also just makes so many questionable plays. His decision making just isn't all that great, and he doesn't balance that out by showing incredible mechanical skills or anything.

the problem with OG at TI was the same problem OG had at Shanghai, and that problem was that, once they had won a big tournament, they'd get real lazy, and people who had played more games on the patch would roll over them they were the team with the most pro games played on 6.85 before Frankfurt, and, before Manila, they picked themselves back up through i-League, Epicenter and Dreamleague pinning it all on n0tail when there are other, more important factors, seems to me like it's missing the forest to flame a tree

I can't decide if Jerax is an upgrade or a downgrade from Cr1t, they're both just so drat good.

He wasn't nearly as well known as n0tail when he started going by Illidan and are we going to call that one out but ignore names like Bulba, Kefka, and the illustrious HANNAH_MONTANA?

He sacrificed tons for Miracle, often giving up lane support and ending up in poor matchups while Fly and Cr1t made sure Miracle had a good game. As a result, I think Notail just looked worse than your flashier carries, but that's the way this team plays. I really don't think he's the weakest link - Cr1t seems to have been clearly the best player but I would put the rest about even.

I agree with the first part, but my point is that even beyond playing that sacrificial style 2.5 position, he also just makes a lot of really bad calls, getting himself killed at critical times in very questionable situations. I don't think he brings enough other skills to the table to make up for that fact. edit: Ok that Ana play was pretty sweet

They probably hired a bunch of guys to send them arcana ideas, this was one of them that someone sent in as a rough draft (which is why it's garbage) that was ultimately declined being the Arcana and Valve was like alright just add that poo poo.
