    Don't be and don't care what you calibrate at. You'll get more consistent games rather than the half bad players half smurfs. Recalibration is soon anyway

    EG just lost again to spirit and are effectively out after 2 games. They're better off disbanding at this point and trying to put together new teams, because this roster isnt doing anything even if they make it to TI

    It's kind of mind blowing how a team this talented is this bad. Probably the most under-performing roster since pre-TI6 secret.

    Yeah with this format they are effectively done. I want them to stay as is so Optic can get to TI with VGJ.S.

    EG is trash. Wasting their time trying to qual for TI instead of strengthening the roster. Fear has 0 game impact and they just get outplayed all over the map.

    I'll be rooting for Optic and VGJ this TI season.

    Stats for this year:

    EG in qualifiers - qualified in 3 of 6 tournaments.
    INVITED to 10 tournaments.

    If it wasn't for invites they would be trash tier and optic and VGJ.S would likely have a lot more qualifying points.

    Hopefully they make changes and if not i hope organizers start to ignore them. I know they have the following. But I'm tired of caring about th3se scrubs. SumaiL tried to 1v5 as Doom today by Dire shrine...

    I've definitely turned sour on SumaiL, used to be a fan, but to find out he's the reason my two favorite players were booted in ppd and Universe, and he's playing like he is... just annoys me.

    Could you imagine an EG disband/reform and RTZ mid instead of CCnC for the TI Quals? Probably would trash optic and be awful and therefore never happen but oh boy the drama!

    Avoiding Liquid and Mineski even though they beat them is big.

    If EG is to have a shot at quals, they need OG to win this event.

    Finally got my skywrath set from caverns last night.

    I will say it’s been fun and a great way to learn how to play different heroes despite losing fairly often to the usual scum. I hadn’t played Skywrath a lot but he’s a ton of fun, especially if they don’t have counters.

    I had the hardest time with Shadow Shaman. It seemed every game I played with him there were 2 other supports.

    I think I’ll do carry next. The BB set does nothing for me.

    Are these the only 3 for cavern the whole time or are they going to rotate?

    Can't wait to be done with turbo and cavern. Only going for LC and Sky sets. I lose so much, refuse to think I'm the sole reason. Every enemy team jist snowballs out of control.

    Turbo is so much better with a stack because you can at least ban Slark, Riki, CK, Sniper, and PA each time.

    That was vintage PPD in the draft. First phase picks Nightstalker and then throws a curveball by deciding to put him at carry when Optic's 4th pick comes around. OG was completely caught off guard and now they're against a carry that can solo kill all 5 of their heroes from minute 4 onward.

    Those are the only sets they will have but the rest of the cavern spots are full of 350 and 2000 BP rewards. Also a super slim chance of the baby Roshan worth $2K
