Remember, Starladder almost didn't let Alliance play

This is the worst outcome

why the fuck are people still picking this dumpster hero?

>>128768747
Reminder that Allaince booked a flight on the last day
>>128768590
Wait.
You unironically think that Ppd is a better drafter than S4?
NO FINN WILL EVER WIN ANYTHING
SUCK IT, MONGOS
>>128768701
JUST
even when muted i can hear his retarded voice
what is going on
i cannot take this cringe anymore
Well played, Alliance.
Celebrating with dessert.

Can PPD the sultan of draft stop this [a] meme?

Who is the fucking MORON drafting for liquid
What an exciting 2nd place match that was!

WHY?
Did that slav just shoo slacks off stage?
Lmao
>Alliance didn't deserve an invite
Which one of you reddit said it?
>not only is EGM back after playing on tier 3 teams
>not only is Bulldog back after having an abysmal post-TI3 stretch and being off the team for awhile
>but S4 is back after flopping at TI
>>128768904
lmao cuck
>>128768908
k-god
>>128768813
ppd is a WAY better drafter than s4. Do you really think Alliance are outsmarting people purely on drafts? They have a set playstyle and pool of heroes that they work off of and can make small variations to adjust to the opponent's responses.
EG as a team can play any style at a moment's notice and ppd's reactionary drafting and hero counters are generally on point.
>this russian host
>>128768907
ppd will leave Invoker unbanned, knowing S4 will choke with it
>>128768883
nice gaymur accessories :D
This wasn't an Alliance victory, this was a Liquid defeat. They played all their team fights like shit, DP didn't know who to focus with the spirits, Oracle saving Dark Seer instead of saving his ult for DP, the team not capitalizing on the stunned and silenced ES targets, Lycan going for medallion and having no carry items while also not split pushing, etc.
>>128768883
It's an other pole posting his slav pig disgusting food episode.
>>128768837

Don't bully Finns pls
Finland is best neighbour and greatest ally.
Drow gets raped by bristle black, the fuck is this?
>>128768953
S4 is back because these mids heroes are more his play style. Its literally TI3 era where its not farmed mids, its play maker mids.
>watching an interview with slacks when you can either mute the stream or just close it outright
This is reddit tier of complaining tbqh
ENDURANCE RUN
This Belarussian host is so classy. Reminds me of this guy.
the final is today right
>>128768893
s4 is well dressed!
hey guys i'm new here so maybe this is a stupid question but
what did kellymilkies do that you hate her so much? her only involvement in the scene is that she's managing [A] and they seem to like her so what's the problem?

>>128769330
>m-muh diversity
Seriously tho, Sheever's ok.
>>128768978
PPD has no idea what he's drafting. He hasn't figured out the patch so he goes Hail Mary every game relies on the high skill cap of his team to win.
And history has proven over and over that it's not the team with the highest skill but the team with the best synergy that wins. And Alliance is that team this tournament.
He's going to try to "counter' S4 drafts and in the process end up countering himself.
I predict 3-1 for Alliance. And even that 1 game will be really close.
Sorry for our hosts. I don't know why are acting like this.
>>128768883
>this is how yuros actually live
>>128769147
I genuinely believe the problem with EE is literally anime.
He lives his life like it's some sort of anime fantasy. Just because he's the protagonist of his life, he thinks he will be successful. He doesn't work as hard as he thinks he does. His pool is limited and loses the plot halfway through teamfights.
He is egotistical and I bet he doesn;t listed to his teammates decisions when playing.
Anime, not even once.
>>128769301

>>128769465
Can you ask Ineska to suck my dick? Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease.
>>128769261
EE played fine, it was mostly w33 and misery playing like shit and puppan drafting like an idiot.
>>128769261
>watch replay of alliance vs secret
>w33 drags venge onto a cliff
>venge just swaps with secret gyro
>tusk has to use all his spells just to get gyro back into the fight they already lost
That was one of the worst plays I have ever seen.

What if Alliance actually win? I'm s-scared.
>>128769346

typical
The redditors are so desperate to white knight someone more pathetic than themselves they're endangering lives. Mine and Slacks too. Suicide rates for white males are no joke. Slacks has all the signs of someone who is incredibly nervous and awkward, someone who probably hates himself and hates his life. And who can blame him. Seems like someone who could kill himself any day now and the world would be shocked it hadn't happened sooner.
Yet somehow, he keeps going, and keeps putting himself in these situations where he has to maintain this facade of the lively, kooky, confidant guy. And he just. doesn't. stop.
When he gets a real job and finds peace in himself, so shall I have peace. The world would be a better place. I hate seeing him in dota events so god damn much.

Winter at least has knowledge, which is far more important than some retard that screams and talks about bagels.
>>128769805
>implying that Synderen isn't best analyst caster
>basement
sheever knows the dota 2 community
>>128769067
she is a scene slut I forgot where she started from but she moved onto sc2 and dota.
its only because she's latched onto a successful boyfriend that she hasn't done shit (successful as in keep a sponsored job for a long time)
She has a big history of being a shit person
In the SC2 scene she was trying to be a caster and failed because no one could fucking understand her. She went to cast with tobi (can't recall if this was SC or dota) and proceed to be afk on the phone for the entire cast.
One of the big reasons people hate her is because she was dating a pro SC2 player, broke up with him the same day he was playing and then proceeded, on camera, go on stage and give his opponent a hug to fuck with him.
She ALWAYS starts twitter drama even fucking with shit she has nothing to do with.
There's no reason to like her
>but but shes a mom to dota players
Does it for her benefit
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hvSn8rLhV24
Honestly watch that video and tell me you don't hate her

I'd say it's the opposite actually, he has a high risk high reward playstyle so his fuckups gets exaggerated but the rewards remain unnoticed. He does not do many "big plays" but his farming efficiency, game awareness and split push abilities are really good.

she broke up with some SC2 player and went up on stage hand hugged some other sc2 player on the same day, literally broke up with her bf right before he was gonna play a match.. And KEKED him on stage infront of thlusands
>>128769805
gonna be unpopular, but odpixel is actually retarded, he just shouts and memes, half the thing he says happening are just his imagination (like venge swapping in arteezy, he goes 'ARTOOZY BLINKS BIG BALLS')
I mean once you take away the memes and shouting he is ayesee-level idiot
>>128770004
so one of the reasons you hate her is because she didn't do well as an sc2 caster?
alright i'm starting to understand

>Serious question. How don't we have better casters then these two?
because of retards like you who think hype casters are good
You got odpixel, gods and kotlguy as good casters, you're a fucking brain dead retard
the other reason is because studios are managed by casters so they keep their shit hype caster friends in the scene
I mean look at how long zyori was at fucking bts
