SWNL

my brain is melting. is dota the problem or the solution

How the fuck is valve getting away with a PreRecorded major event.
Anons I need answers should we call news stations about this?

shanghai did nothing wrong

xth for shrines did nothing wrong

it was kinda funny the first time, don't just give it away when you bait

CM is a squishy support and doesn't count. You don't pick a hard carry to counter a squishy support like CM.
WR doesn't count either. She doesn't build INT items but damage. AM counters int heroes that build INT items. AM offers nothing against TNC's line-up and hence Faceles are losing and we will go to game 3.

Do you even play Dota? This isn't complicated.

I haven't played for some time, isn't Aghs just a better linkens for AM? Unless the effect transferring is really important

am cunters slak u retrad

>1500 mana wr
>1000 mana nyx
>caster wont click slark but he builds a ton of stats so he has mana too and is useless without it

Sivler edge disables the passive if anyone is wondering why AM builds linkens instead of aghs.

niec dagon retard

HOW CAN BLACK and CHINKS EVEN COMPETE

Faceless is fucking terrible. How did they win g1?

this shit is prerecorded? what the hell is the point of this LAN

>build tiny as a nuker
>lose because your AM keeps dying and does no damage

gg go game 3

eggs dee

>2k shitter defending his "no int heroes" arguement
you need to go back

>spamming taunt
What a madman

WHAT THE FUCK?

THE FUCK WAS THAT

>SEAmonkey Dota

ITS SHIT, WHAT A SURPRISE!

Can anyone tell me the reason SEA got TWO qualifier spots while Europe/NA got 1?

based PGL fast forwarding this shit series

kuku being a retard at mid dying 4 times in first 4 mins

It feels like aghs is more useful in fights though since Axe/Nyx will always be the one initiating , both with unblockable disables.

>eul dagon tiny
what the literal fuck is this?

they just skip it to the current point when their stream fucks up and delays it

lol

>he isn't hype that our lads TNC are finally breaking the bonds that is the FL SEA curse

throw order

>afk farm for 30 min
>weaken lanes and early game because of this
>im ready to fight guys
>instant disabled and gibbed because you're a dogshit hero
>become smug melee creep worth 500 gold
huh.....so this is the power of AM

>people crying about pre-recorded
>still watch anyway
wipe those tears away bab

So if I'm tracking right, this tournament is single elim?

An interesting format if so, really makes every single game feel valuable and important.

>seashits beats tb, eg, and dc
i agree burger, 2 slots for eu and no slots for na.

jesus black is such a fucking pussy

>EG
>beaten by pinoys
>thunderbirds
>beaten by pinoys
>DC
>also beaten by pinoys and eliminated by chinks

:thinking:

I know I'm late, but Lil's Wisp plays in the 2nd game of VP vs IG.V were fucking fantastic.

jokes on you, i havent been watching any of the streams and just shitposting and making things up as i go from the reactions on here

>windranger wins a game
wtf?

Why do AMs go for Linkens over Aghs these days?

Like when the reflect is actually useful, not for shit like Duel or Sunder.

Can't w8 for Black to commit sodoku after losing 3rd game

>spam taunt
>win
Dotards?

Valve matched up 2 SEA teams to get TnC eliminated

TNC destroyed the entire NA scene in the roup stages

Silver Edge break works on the passive from Aghs, retard.

Regen and break resistance.

>BLACK AM
>LOSING AGAINST WR
AYYY LMAO

Aghs won't block Axe's call, it's a non-targeted ability.

Single elim is the better format except for the pointless groupstage. They should just eliminate the bottom half of the teams after the groupstage.

why do u complain about am when you have a freaking eul dagon tiny?

its all axe really.

Dunno if it was his thinking there, but Linken is good if they got silveredge, since your agh can get Break'd

BLACK ;_;

>HUR DUR!
>OUR OGRE AM
>GOOD!!

>expert analysis

Pls respond

>Raven spamming taunt
>actually wins
kek

I never said It blocks axe call. I mean if linkens is subpar when it comes to saving you in small skirmishes / ganks then why not get Aghs? It's great vs TNC's heroes.

Pls fucking kill yourself

it's not greath vs silveredge, nor call. Better mana regen for am too.

Yeah it would be useful.
Or he could've gotten a fucking BKB for god's sake.

>be me
>be nyx
>activate carapace
>cast mana burn on antimage
???

>spam taunts
>d2g gets triggered

thoughts?

no
slark builds silveredge

Another reason Aghs isn't great is Nyx can carapace you with mana break

Slark was gonna get silver edge whatever happens, and that negates AM aghs

>tims ES game 3
>lose
heh can't wait.

? we support BM here

Top 3 reasons /d2g/ hates TNC:

1. Pinoy
2. Pinoy
3. Racism

I don't even know why we try to be nice. We just wanna play Dota.

SyndereN fucking theorycrafted about it during the game you retarded asshole.

we all love TNC for knocking OG out of the international though

Nyx would just initiate with stun during vendetta . It literally changes nothing if he went aghs or linkens. At least Aghs does something in team fights.

We dont hate TNC famalam
At least theyre better than OG faggots

fuck off Sea-monkey

>racism
is reddit still down?

>we

PUTANG INA MO

d2g liked tnc since jimmy hoe!

we the old fags like washed up shitters like black etc

My bad, I don't listen to shit casters, sorry

>pick anti mage
>not burning
>lose
>? ? ? ? ?

I'm gonna hate TNC if they don't knock OG out

>icefraud hasn't nerfed burning

DELETE FILIP
GIVE FACELESS YOUR POWERS GUYS

Fuck off Zhang

>tfw subhuman in my general
i thought gulag all white

Tangina mo din. Don't speak flip language in a Taiwanese Soap Opera Board!

>singsing hasn't buffed singsing

How bout this /d2g/.
Single elims, but 3 matches of Bo3.

I'm enjoying single elimination MUCH more than double elimination. Every game is on the edge.

Even games like this one, TNC v Faceless, which usually I wouldn't care much, feels more relevant.

>it's an "Aui talks a lot without saying much" episode

pakyu olol

boboka im gagoka

Just woke up. Did FL manhandle TNC like everybody expected them to?

thanks reddo

PUTANG INA MO GAGO

Why does Aui talk like such an autist? I can understand like 80% of what he says.

Agree

Plus you don't need to sit through 12 hours a day for shitty LB games
