EE on bad teams is a gift. EE jumping between teams when they are developing a rapport and showing some promise is kneecapping the whole region.

People were literally just saying at the end of the NA quals that if they could find a better carry than sammyboy then 4zoomers could actually compete

Say what you will about EE as a person/teammate but he's absolutely a better carry than Sammyboy, don't complain about your monkey's paw wish coming true :colbert:

Hard agree - NA is light on good carries but Sammyboy has been more effective/successful than EE over the last year.

necrobook beastermaster was so based u'd ding 6 and get the book at the same time and immediately get a double kill in the oifflane and then take the tower, sometimes all with the same summons. it was badass. rip

Reads like Gunnar kicked Sammy for EE. NA is the loving worst.

The team was originally Gunnar and Husky's, Husky wanted to play with Moo, Moo wanted to play pos 3 and with Envy, so we end up with this. Idk, I think it's pretty reasonable. 4zoomers stuck together for over a year - shuffling at this point seems normal. Gunnar also said on stream that originally they were planning to go forward as 4 but didn't say who the 4 were or what happened but evidentially that didn't work out.

Can he? Sammyboy has all of Envy's problems but worse. He has the same problems of getting caught out randomly but he also really bad positioning in fights and doesn't show up half the time.

Not having TI until October has hosed Valve's already lovely schedule. Typically 7.30 would be released right after TI which would have been any time after August 18th I think.

If TI was still happening in August I don't think we would have gotten anything except maybe a balance patch, right?

I hate having to filter my streams based on who's actually playing dota and who's playing Atomic War and Ability Draft

We get it, you're picking Axe again, who cares let me see someone draft Swashbuckle and CK crit and instakill the entire enemy team

At this point I think I'd rather watch an Atomic War tournament than TI on this patch

Give Phase Shift a casting backswing when you come out of it. Enough that an AOE DOT will break blink dagger or that you can land a frame perfect stun.
