    It's good, I haven't liked a lot of the TI coverage but that was a good segment.

    I miss the old Redeye days of hosting.

    Happened already in the tournament when undying vs OG because Timado snatched the aegis after Sumail didn’t pick it up

    Has Quinn improved? I saw someone mention he has on reddit and deserves a chance with a better team but I'm not so sure.

    Crit probably best player on the team. RTZ too passive, don't think he has the killer instinct to ever win a big one.

    Rank 1 on NA servers despite rage quitting a lot of games. He’s very talented, but so is/was abed. Think the concern with abed is his hero pool/puddle.

    Quincy Crew confirmed major rework/disband as well.

    Abed was definitely a little limited this TI, the drafts were also kinda crappy. Didn't really utilize Icex3 as well as they could have outside of a couple games.

    Why is there talk about her being a four passive ability hero?

    (I didn’t watch the anime, but I understand her character is a super-strong brawler that doesn’t speak.)

    i can't believe how poor LGD looked after laning in game 5. they had fine timings but it felt like no real plan for their movements. Spirit snuffed out a couple and took fights on their own terms and just easily won the game. A pretty boring game 5 and I have to think LGD was feeling the nerves.

    Some bias obviously, but Dota is so much better to watch than League. I saw their worlds is on going and watched a couple games. Don't think I could ever get into it.

    The big team fights and action are very lacking compared to Dota. But that might be my lack of knowledge of what's going on.

    I started watching Dota with TI5 and was immediately hooked and all in on EG.

    Marci is out. Character has some interesting movement spells/abilities and a ridiculous, "give yourself/a teammate 50% lifesteal and 65 dmg for 6 sec every 6 sec at max level" spell.

    Also new patch

    https://www.dota2.com/marci

    SIDEKICK
    Marci's loyalty helps ensure survival, imbuing a chosen allied hero and herself with lifesteal and attack damage.

    ABILITY: Unit Target
    AFFECTS: Allied Heroes
    DISPELLABLE: Yes
    DURATION: 6.0
    LIFESTEAL: 35.0% / 40.0% / 45.0% / 50.0%
    BONUS DAMAGE: 20 / 35 / 50 / 65
    COOLDOWN: 36.0 / 28.0 / 20.0 / 12.0

    at max level, it's very strong (broken, probably)

    also a level 20 talent of 1.75 sec spell immunity on the spell and a level 25 talent of +50% lifesteal (so 100% at that point). pretty insane.
