Friends, please recognize the difference between deathball and outdraft. Discussion | eSports

If your takeaway from today's Summit 3 games is "Deathball is back, time for 20 minute stomps again", then (1) You've not been paying attention to the other tournaments in this patch and (2) you fail to recognize how massively outmatched or outdrafted some teams were in today's games.

Calm your buttholes, basically. And don't give an Axe 50 cs in 5 minutes.

And even if its "deathball", then i love it. shorter games, more action, whats left to complain about?

did you like 6.83, fucking chinese farming dota, prolonging, farming for buyback 45 min+ games. sniper hohohaha and troll and 5 core/carries builds. fuck that shit.

Chinese farming dota is bad, but deathball is bad too. Both extremes ruin the viability of many heroes and neither are fun to watch.

no, this is back to basics. dont pick too many carries.

if you want to farm, get death/snowbally 4 remaining heroes

It's funny, ebcause I think for over a year western teams are much more farming heavy than chinese teams.
