This Ember is having a bad enough game to offset it, though. They're basically playing the 2k pub strat of "hope the Sniper gets gigantic and just peeps everyone to death".

I was thinking last night about how funny it is for all the casters to be so excited about getting take-out of even dubious quality. God bless America.

Also that was an incredible teamfight for Forward, they look really good

Honestly Forward has looked the best of any of the open quali teams. Going into this most people thought China was the most competitive region but I don't know how they're going to stand up to a team that wants to play like this.

They seemed to have just figured it out in this fight, and the correct answer was "just walk around him"

It's not like they've been performing amazingly, but EHOME rocking 3 TI winners (faith_bian, y', ferrari_430) has been fun to watch in quals so far.

I haven't watched dota in a while but randomly decided to watch a bit of the quals just now, when did mid Dazzle become a thing? I remember him exclusively as a 5.

It’s been done rarely for a long time because he can dump out physical damage in the right circumstances and has a great attack animation

7.20, so half a year ago? Core Dazzle was very common back then but is now more of a niche pick. Poison Touch got made into an actual skill and his ult now gives him a ton of cooldown reduction.

Thanks! I see his ult got reworked too
