sclpls Posted January 19, 2016 I think it was Blitz, a DOTA caster, who said that pro-DOTA is just so much fun to watch when Alliance is doing well, and I totally agree. It was great to see them win this tournament (also because as a Team Secret fan it made my team's early loss to them look less bad, at least they got a win off in a best of 3, can Liquid or EG make that claim?) I've seen a lot of claims that this is a strong Alliance patch because it favors split pushing. I don't really know how to evaluate that claim because I haven't seen enough pro games to tell, and I never really wrapped my head around the changes that were made in this patch. But I guess that will be a looming question about the team's performance if another big patch shakes things up before TI. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
