The Esports world cup was done. I’m looking forward to The international. I want 1w (due to 33 and Whitemon), Yandex (due to Saksa), Liquid or Spirit to win.

How about you?

    9class used Dark willow, Rubick and Keeper of the light in the Esports world cup finals. All ranged. I 👂 (or read about) an analyst say that a position-4 gamer was a melee or ranged specialist. 1 of the 2. 9class was a ranged specialist in the finals.

      Which is interesting because he used to be almost a melee-4 exclusively, and also specialised in that weird space creating and free roaming style he pioneered from the 4 position with heroes like Monkey King and Slark. Puppey coming in as coach has been teaching him to play as a more conventional support - which has undoubtedly made him a more complete player - but I do miss the unique 9class playstyle from last year.

      It’s probably meta-dependent too, though. I’m sure it will return if it’s viable again.
