Andrast posted:If players leaving a team means that the captain is bad then literally every single captain in pro dota is awful. If he is so awful to play with how did he keep EG going as a stable strong team for a long-rear end time when the average age for a dota team is like three months? PPD was the best player on EG.

I think you have to play support to be a good captain. As a carry you have to focus on maximizing your farm and not getting ganked.

Lone druids talents are loving broken right now. +200 range at level 10, -50 seconds respawn at 20, and -10s savage road cooldown at 25. With talents like that, why put anything besides boots and oov on the bear?

Andrast posted:Those were with much better teams. Yeah and this year he got tired of the Secret bullshit and "made a team with friends just to have fun". That hasn't worked, so now he's probably going back to tryhard Envy and kicking dead weight. I agree with Xtanstic that he shouldn't be the in game caller. In fact, I don't think any carry players should be the in game caller. Carry's need to focus on maximizing their farm and dominating their lane. Have you noticed how teams who have the 5 as captains seem to be doing the best? Fly of OG, PPD or Cr1t of EG, Kuroky of Liquid, Q of IG. All of these teams have the 5 as captains because they can constantly scout the map and get a better feel for what's happening in the game. Skill wise, he's great at farming carries like terrorblade, anti-mage, naga, drow and medusa. That type of play is out of the meta right now. Carries/mids are leaving lanes to jungle a bit and letting their warlocks, silencers, and earth spirits get farm and then smoking up to fight. Have you ever seen EE do that? No, he's a farm hog because he plays farm hogging heroes. He needs to adapt and play more mid game heroes, like Jugg, Slark, Ursa, or Troll. EE's also the most transparent player in the league. He doesn't give a poo poo what people think and doesn't let anyone influence him. He's responsible for better equipment at LANs, organizations paying out, and better tournament formats. His plays aside, he's a big reason competitive Dota 2 is what it is today.

Why is Sumail playing troll and magnus? He never plays those heroes. Also, he's killing Zai's potentional when he puts him on Treant. Loving Aui on the panel too.
