    Odd they give away Leshrac, seem they are overconfident. Although they might just surprise us and rape them. Afterall Lina can actually deal well with Leshrac in the midgame if you don't get raped early

      i dont like bane pick, hope it works

        i damn near never like a bane pick

        That hero is so bad if you aren't already winning the game, and he is just awful and catching up and finding xp/farm

            Another bane pick. That hero has actually lost all of his 6 games in main event. Bane luck

              Well nobody gave VP a chance against Secret.

              Though honestly, LGD looked much more solid and constant both group stages and main event than secret

                  bane getting a really really strong start this game though

                  picking him with CM is smart since they can jungle together for xp and gank well

                                "ok so Merlini just spelled c-dec into like see-dee-e-see failfish"

                                I'm way behind the dotabuff running commentary, but that's what the chinese call cdec, they say each letter c, d, e, c. There were people telling redeye via twitter how everyone was saying it wrong. Not that I give a shit but that's probably why.

                                And yeah, dendi showing up in a pudge suit was cool but what he said when they pulled off the mask was dumb. He should've just talked normal been like yeah I'm bringing pudge back. Pretending to be pudge once the mask is off is silly. But at least he has a personality.

                                            they have to nerf lesh ulti down, which is super awkward for icefrog because he hates to undo buffs

                                              the game looks pretty even. bkb's are good but they grow weaker, same withthe gold advantage vp have right now

                                              Last picking is 4 pussies

                                                          thats because it is a carry lesh. The whole point of picking lesh is to rape mid and be 2v1 on core matchup
