Feels like a lot is going to change after this TI. People retiring, the old guard teams fizzling away, new kids like Sumail coming in and stomping the scene, the 4 yearly regional tournaments vs The International, and the continuation of Chinese dominance. I am sure TI5 exceeds the grandeur of TI4, but probably not the excitement. Things are gona change.
It feels like the UFC 6 years ago, when Brock, Chuck Liddell, and Randy Couture were all at the end of their careers. You knew the UFC going forward was only going to get bigger and bigger, but it probably was never going to be as good.

I put rave in, over malaysia but went 9/10 - because rave went top 6 at DAC and this malaysia squad is so many time reformed. I think its a mistake of MY over Rave, even if Malaysia's ceiling is higher. They should have to win the SEA qual.

I know the old greats will be falling off and retiring and it won't be the same
But look on the bright side, a new and regenerating wave of good casters we badly need
Watched a YouTube of Fear going off as out world destroyer for a very big nasty comeback. Would love to see that guy taste tournament gold at TI.

Next time somebody on my team calls support alchemist, I'll just eat the abandon. Retards who think donating aghs after 25 minutes, skilling greevils greed 1st point and buying zero wards makes them the gods gift to dota make me stop playing. Bonus points for giving first blood while trying to get the first bounty rune after skilling greed.
I keep running into retards running jungling necrolytes. In one case he "rushed" dagon.... 9 minutes dagon no boots we'd already lost our T1s.

Yeah I think people didn't really see the implication of this change. Support alchemist farms like shit and the earliest you're gonna get an agh in a typical game is like 35-40mins. Even as carry alchemist, the earliest you'd have the money to spare without hurting your own build would be 40+mins, maybe even 50+, when you're already 5 to 6slots. This is really as like a super lategame change than an early game one. Rushing an agh to give away is fucking retarded and more importantly if you play support alch, you need to max the stun and acid asap and you're just roam ganking with medallion, you don't have time to farm creeps.
Pubs gonna pubs though.
I think there are some scenarios where it might sense. I saw SingSing and bangfish use it successfully in a pub:, Sing was going ham on Ogre had a Bloodstone and Alch gifted Aghs at ~15 minutes. The only scenario I can think of in a pro game might be paired QoP, an early orchid + aghs could be devastating.

Ok, it's def broken or only works for AP. I played an AR game, placed over 8 wards, we won, and I didn't get credit. Given the fact the dumb fucking charms only work in AP, I wouldn't be surprised. GG Valve, you dumb fucks. Glad I didn't go all out and try to max out the compendium like last year.
