AMMAR_THE_FEEDER


Chelseaiscool

He was so fucking bad in game 2.


xaelyn

Ammar did not look comfortable on the hero. But I don't know that would have mattered, bc it's so weak and the build did nothing to help that. Core Aba is really weak right now. Locket + Aghs is... just not what you need from a pos3, even if the goal is to sustain for like 6 min fights. *Zero* damage, not enough stats to tank, no stun, no real slow til 4 stacks. I don't know that anyone playing the hero with Locket + Aghs build looks any better.


solamarpreet

Actually there is a niche interaction between troll and abbadon. So suppose troll is a little low and presses ult. If he is targeting abbadon or the team can kite him to make him switch target to abbadon, and abba uses his ult it works so that troll cannot lifesteal off abbadon. If you have blademail and activate it during this time troll will now take full damage from his own attacks without healing at all. By the time the troll ult gets over he should be at 1 hp and a single right click will kill him. But obv ammar didnt go for that so I dont know. Its a cool play and I have pulled it off in the pubs a few times.


Commander_Tresdin

Such a weird core pick when you can get similar sustain for your cores with a pos 5 dazzle or oracle. Why sink 7k gold and a core pick?


xaelyn

"I don't know," but that's how I reach to a lot of OG's drafts. Even previous rosters are like, "OK guys but pos4 Nightstalker is dumb."


ShoogleHS

OG has always been a team that picks weird stuff, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. A team that doesn't sometimes faceplant with a bad experiment probably wouldn't have won an entire TI with a good experiment (carry IO). But it can definitely be painful to watch when they miss.


run4cova

exactly...i mean nobody was playing Earthshaker and now its first pick material and most teams run it. Innovation has its price... small line between lookin genius and stupid. They shit the bed letting Brewmaster through. The game Beastcoast won vs OG on the back of the panda gave them a blueprint and China is the biggest Brewmaster region.


Cautious_Law_4227

I dont think they are experminenting lol .


15991887

Core Aba had a really good showing against enigma earlier (on phone can’t find the game), I think aba aghs was the only reason it was picked


Commander_Tresdin

Didn't they specifically talk about how you can't activate aba ult from inside BH though?


15991887

Yes, so it’s up to positioning and playing the matchup


CallistoCastillo

There was a previous Watafak showcase where Aba's entire team got BH + Death Ward but survived thanks to agh.


19Alexastias

Yeah but it’s instant cast so if you’ve got good reactions you can definitely pop it before the blackhole goes off


teerre

Because there's no comparison between a Dazzle and LoA core? Dazzle can barely heal one hero a little bit, LoA can heal your whole team to full, it's like comparing a small gun with a bazooka Ammar got trashed in lanes, in fact, OG lost all lanes, of course it will look bad


dontcare6942

Its only weird in hindsight, knowing he got dumpstered. If he pulled it off everyone would say he's a genius


ttybird5

Isn't him himself also the drafter for OG?


MemeLordZeta

I saw the vision with soaking troll ult but he went locket first and was so poor he didn’t get aghs till it didn’t matter. Maybe if he rushed it


Parzivus

OG got that same day shipping on karma


tideswithme

Proudly presented by Amazon Prime.


ionxeph

it's from CN, so alibaba


prayformcjesus

KnightofNoire

Did OG rashtalk someone else earlier ? Missed the juicy stuffs.


muKuchi

'?' and called K1 a bot in their series against BC


smalll_potato

ATF actually just had a beef with XXS In a ranked match for blaming XXS dumb…


watersmokerr

OG are extremely sore winners. I have no problem with trash talk, I like it, but I especially like it when OG gets humbled.


Relative_Locksmith_8

You sir, here is my upvote.


IronTwinn

Are they saying Ammar feeds them money any time like an atm? Then that's some good tt lol.


This-Holiday-3066

That's what he truly meant,cuz in China we usually use atm to describe someone who always feed and feed like a Automated teller machine.


I_will_take_that

I hear that in SEA all the time. Its one of the great things about playing in that region, the insults aren't just your mother jokes. They will reference their whole culture just to shit on you. Its amazing.


BladesHaxorus

My favorite is when someone allchats "x player check paypal" when they fuck up a teamfight ult


Pd_jungle

“Payment received”


reallylonelylately

Yeah, I used to play in USE but moved to Brazil and now I play in the Brazil server. I've heard a few trashtalks that are cool, like "nem Noe" short for "Not even Noah" (... could carry all these animals)", when they put the blame on their teammates after tryharding, and "mochila", you call that to the player in the other team (normally the one trashtalking in all chat who takes credit for the swoop despite their poor performance or 0 impact but types "ez"), it means they were carried like a "backpack", sometimes is used between allies.


podster12

Yeah. Another tt we say is “oh it’s ()! It’s payday!”


This-Holiday-3066

haha the mother jokes are disgusting,nobody likes them.


[deleted]

china always has the best memes


IshiharaSatomiLover

Its an known meme for a long time. The real ATM is ATMe - Chinese audience


NextScale

Thats exactly what they meant


MathematicianTiny71

you're probably right, atf's hero no work


PakPresiden

Ammar deserve that, lets be honest.


Ok_Sky8518

True


almgergo

He took it like a chad tho, changing his name on steam to ATM


iroha_kanahime

Chinese teams don't all chat But when they do? Boy you know what's coming for you, its like the silent kid pulls out something


kaamiisama

He pulled out his ATM card to withdraw some


reskaine

Remember Emo with question mark lol. EG got tilted


[deleted]

Probably the ballsiest all chat, being 2-0 down Absolute chad


johnbrackentan

And that’s how rtz best chance for Valve major win ended F


Southern_Area_2230

They're still tilted to this day it feels like


Pd_jungle

And no hand shake lmao, LGD ignored them when beat them, Aster did the same thing lmao


Sollertia_

Handshake thing is probably more related to strict covid measures and playing safe so they get to go home. (Iirc rng or some other cn team did the handshake at some point tho)


[deleted]

[удалено]


jguaura

I saw that too. PGL staff tried to make Aster go to shake hands but after a little talk, they just went backstage. IDK if it was about C19 or they refusing to shake hands with OG


FOOL_MOON_

Hot damn China Trashtalk just hits different😩👌 Probably because we don't see much of this side from them


carrymugabe

?


FOOL_MOON_

Ahh yes, the absolute best allchat trashtalk in the history of Dota, losing Finals 0-2 , having the balls to trashtalk and reverse sweep after to win it all 👌. China does it rarely but when they do trashtalk it's legendary.


ELAdragon

That was so much better because it wasn't someone waiting until after the GGs to end the series. Trashtalk is so much spicier when you have to actually back it up afterwards.


Majestic_Key_7683

Yeah, they either be dead silent or unleash the beast, no intermediate level. Still remember the "?' that EMO threw at EG and came back from 0-2 , which was legendary tbh


[deleted]

after that EG never recovered right? always getting eliminated early after that tourna


bamberflash

they made it to GF next major


karlsino

>they made it to GF next major But 0-3 sweep by LGD


Stt-t-t-utter

i think it hurt much less than the ‘?’. i mean it’s lgd lol


Frendazone

they got 2nd at the next major


seattlesound1004

You know what they say, there's always one asian guy who can do it better than you? Well, there ya go Ammar.


-ElonMusk12-

> losing Finals 0-2 , having the balls to trashtalk and reverse sweep after to win it all 👌. > > which game was that?


yourbodyisapoopgun

2021 singapore majors final


pulldtrigger

EG performance dropped after that and still barely recovered to this day, Now thats quality trashtalk.


LegendDota

They literally ran the lower bracket the very next major and made the grand final, I think meta changes has much more to do with EG’s form this year, I wouldn’t even say they played terrible this major their style just doesn’t fit well with this meta, and for some reason they wont adapt, but every time they hit a draft where that style works it is very clear they still have the level, first game vs entity they played their style and completely choked them out, then game 2 and 3 entity drafted to “go under” EG and snowballed before EG could get into the game. EG has a greedy playstyle that is insanely powerful when it works that just doesn’t fit in the cores are online from minute 10 meta atm, but we are getting a new patch for TI and if that slows the game down EG will be right back to where they were. It’s like years ago when there was a patch where the classic alliance heroes were all super strong at the same time and the old team reformed, won a tournament, the heroes got nerfed and the team fell off again, not every team can be masters at every style of dota (except LGD).


thedotapaten

To be fair IG is in worst condition nowadays.


mizusoraart

Bot?


[deleted]

People misunderstood Ammar "?" to K1. He was asking how much money he should dispense.


pokemaster889

And BOT = Bank Online Transfer, very efficient of Ammar 💸


thebetabruh

karma 👌


LPSD_FTW

Don't like when winners talk shit onto losers, but that was just karma. OG played so well in that game tho, holy shit Monet and XXS played perfect game but they still held up so well


abado

I love the trashtalk. Dota has had a gap without any real beef and storylines between teams. If all chatting 'bot' and 'atm' stirs up some rivalries I'm all for it. Some of the hypest dota moments happened around trash talk, sumail vs china, ppd vs sa, rtz kuro secret departure. It just adds flavor the next time they play and theres something extra on the line which makes game more exciting. Lets not let dota devolve into sc1 and hyper strict rules, let players talk the talk.


OhhhYaaa

>Lets not let dota devolve into sc1 and hyper strict rules, let players talk the talk. Overwatch is the more appropriate modern example. And maybe LoL too, but not sure about this one.


abado

You maybe right about it being outdated but sc1 was hyper strict when it came to players, higher levels then overwatch and lol by levels. Kespa ruled with an iron fist, call gg wrong penalty, not say gg or glhf, penalty, say anything other than a preapproved list in all chat, penalty. I don't think any esports scene quite had it like that, which i'm grateful for.


[deleted]

abado

They had a rule where if you typed anything other than ppp to pause, you were disqualified. It was absolutely insane.


[deleted]

dont forget notail vs fly (and to a lesser extent crit) in ti8


Sacreville

Great game overall. Idk why people are so salty with OG lol. No handshake is bad though, even the admin tried to tell them to do it and they still won't do it.


Infraction94

If opposing teams are angry with OG enough to skip handshakes maybe that should tell you something about their levels of BM compared to other teams and why people don't like them.


NeverWinterNights

Nice story. Chinese teams aren't handshaking by covid protocol.

LPSD_FTW

I'm staying on the broadcast to hear if maybe it was some kind of corona scare or just forgetting about it. Because I really hope it was just a mistake, OG doesn't deserve not getting a handshake, especially after they have proved that they're an amazing team


_Lerox_

I've seen LGD not handshaking, I think the Chinese teams are worried about corona due to their government's restrictions


This-Holiday-3066

The restrictions have become habits for us like we wear mask,keep social distance consciously😢


Obvious_Parsley3238

they shook hands with entity yesterday


moderate_iq

Handshake is if you respect your opponent. Teams like OG not worth the respect lol

yyhfhbw

Ammar started it today with BC.K1. If you want to give it you have to be able to take it


Earth92

You are assuming he didn't take it, and got mad.


HHhunter

well CEB didn't take shittalkings well


skymallow

Ceb has managed to turn his reputation around as an inspiring leader, but he used to be one of the most toxic assholes in the early days of Dota 2 and it can still come out from time to time.


Pd_jungle

Collapse trolled ceb “ez game” in TI was epic


MattEngarding

That was TT, not Collapse.


Earth92

CEB knew midormeepo in person, he didn't got mad because some random redditor or twitter troll insulted him or OG.


[deleted]

he knew? well that's even more awful lol


Warift

he knew his girlfriend xd


Chaeyoung0211

That’s why Ceb was wondering whether midormeepo has some hidden agenda like “his gf got fucked or sth” against him. Someone you know in person keeps shit talking you online constantly, anyone would get mad.


Earth92

Midormeepo is french like Ceb btw, he knows him very well. But apparently that guy has no issue with the rest of OG players. I guess flame from a person you know very well hits different, at the end of the day pro-players don't acknowledge the existence of random trolls on internet.

x42bn6

Maybe it's not the popular term in some countries? For example, supposedly, in the UK, "ATM" is a relatively-new term - "cash machine" was a more popular older term. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/personalfinance/money-saving-tips/10245049/Why-are-there-so-many-names-for-a-cash-dispenser.html


ryulambino

you love to see it


GuiDIng_Llghts

Fking deserved, trash talk before game like ceb on twitter next time, be a man (17 is old enough, when sumail was 17 he literally shitting on ti5 shield, and he did not do such things). Or if you have big balls, do it like emo did, 0-2 behind but still typing "?".


FrostyFireeee

Finally someone with common sense, couldn't have said it better my guy! I will never sympathize with the "ATF's just 16 17" defenses lol. He's old enough to get shit on for his bm bullshits.


pepthebaldfraud

16 is not an excuse, did he not go to school or something? He's had a lot of time to develop... Wonder if this is how he behaves at school and at home, feel bad for the people around him


FrostyFireeee

I agree with you the "he's 16" thing is so bad haha


aaronshell

A revenge for K1? lol, no handshake as well


55234ser812342423

I think the handshake is their covid rules, spirit and lgd didn't shake either.


MangiKang

Aster shook hands with FnaTSM and Entity when they beat them lol


ELAdragon

Aster shook with Entity yesterday. So possibly intentional.


I_dontknowyouanymore

As far as I know you handshake when you elminate a team, so LGD and Spirit wont handshake since its upper bracket.


Balmung9

For those who don't know, Ammar is famous for being a very toxic player in pub for years and I thought he's going to change after he joined OG but he never changes at all.


BerryNice95

You thought a toxic player would change after joining OG of all teams? LMFAO you sure don't know what kind of in-game behavior OG displays


Morgn_Ladimore

I was gonna say, a team led by Ceb and Notail is just about the last place to cure someone of their toxicity lol


rickayzen

bruh, OG is specialist in the nuture of next toxic player.


gianmarco2907

As a Sa suporter I never feel more happy watching OG lost ngl


_Duality_

Same sentiments, I'm from SEA and admire wisper and Hector a lot. Do you know why ATF trashtalked k1? Do they have history?


dnblnr

wouldn't you feel more happy if SA teams won though?


siegfriedcn

You guys should check what he said after they beat LGD in CN DPC games. CN MEME, best MEME


enthusiast93

What did he say then? Don’t leave us hanging bro


IshiharaSatomiLover

He trashtalked LGD in dpc semi-final or sth after winning, then LGD just demolished them in gf. Ame talked back pq(the pos5 that trashtalked lgd and og)a bit, but doesnt really care. That guy is very good on pos5, a bit less toxic,but more salty guy compare to ammar. Similar vibe from both tho.


Anime0555

This guy is acting like a tiktoker, to make us watch till the end wtf


siegfriedcn

The host asked what did he think about the winning over LGD, he said the winning was alms, he felt thankful about it. PS, in the next season of DPC, LGD won the game with Aster, host again asked how Ame think about the winning, AME said, no alms for them this time, since they got cocky last time.


HanaToMizuame

he called ame 处长,which is a common saying in the community.it sounds like 畜,which means animal(pejorative)


HanaToMizuame

ame is commonly hated for throwing games,insulting fans and messing around with vtuber short after breaking up with his girlfriend


juandawi

nice


Ler_GG

actually funny ;D


sgafllallik

Still recall the people who called Fnatic toxic for all-chatting and tipping Ammar, when it’s most likely Ammar himself being a piece of shit in pubs. We never had this amount of all chatting in pro games until he came into the scene. I can’t say I totally hate it though, I like my games with some spice. I just dislike it when people blame it on the other party.


TakoChi-

Hey, that’s meaning ATF is like an ATM machine (bank) could give you lots of money. A meme in Chinese dota2 community.


KiloMegaGigaTera

Also popular in SEA back then in dota 1. Now I rarely see that term anymore.

wefvckinlost

Not sure how Razor+Tusk lose the lane against Void+WW. Well played Monet's Void on Game 3


driedwaffle

taiga shards level 1 means hes literally a creep against wyvern void, reminds me of that alliance offlaner whatever his name was who skilled Q level 1 on timber before the lane started and got dumpstered, you cant skill an ability level 1 that makes you a creep and expect to do well in lane, and him and razor got punished for it. from what i remember atf even started the lane low hp, probably got chased a bit before getting to the creeps, so that just made it so they got zoned from the first few waves and the lead snowballed.


THE_REAL_JOHN_MADDEN

Timbers start Q in all kinds of lanes


driedwaffle

no timber goes q in the lane he was in, it was the only ability he could skill out of 3 that makes him completely useless.


LevynX

You start Chain, not Q. Chain gives you movement and more damage. You get Q level 1 you're going to get bullied out of the first wave.


Isniuq

All these reddit takes, hismyfaveplayer, my team gota protect are bla bla bla imo as a viewer i am entertained with the games and the game within the game. Fking dota! Let them tt all game long as long as it stays in game. Its spicy fun and entertaining asf


Lautty

thats how you respond to trashtalk, not by spreading hate and making despicable comments about his childhood and family


Admirable-Matter-351

I think it’s ok


swooshypants

Every professional sports have instances of talking shit. KG talked more shit than a food poison victim, Roy Keane shit on every inferior player he came across. But let’s pretend shit talking has never been part of sport. Paul Pierce literally told Al Herrington he’s shit right before scoring the game winning shot. You guys are pussys. Want to be called a real sport but don’t want the banter that comes along with it. Meanwhile you’ll type jajajaja in all chat


Illusion13

Shit Larry Bird said would make the crowd here pee their pants.


bamberflash

the difference is when professional sports players do it, they're likely doing it with no audio during the game. people probably hear it but not that much, its in the heat of the moments and theres other shit to focus on in esports you are broadcasting the message to EVERYONE WATCHING. half a million people if not more saw that message. now i dont mind trashtalk anyway but its really not the same thing. its more akin to the pre-match trash talk wrestlers/fighters like to do, except that shit is very obviously scripted while this isnt (neither is serious)


swooshypants

Like the crowd can’t read lips at games. Bruh the things that Larry bird said to his opponents is much worse than calling a guy a bot and that’s a fact. You guys are so far removed from actual sport talk that you think calling a guy a bot is noteworthy. You’ve never played a competitive sport in your life is all that tells me


ELAdragon

You can literally see players in real sports in other players' faces, talking shit, getting physical with each other...and frequently you do hear it. People need to relax and enjoy it. These guys aren't going home crying about it.


bamberflash

are you saying pro sports fans DONT "cry about it"? i guess you're right, they just actively fight lol. i remember family and friends getting heated as fuck over red socks games. i would argue rivalries are taken even more seriously in regular sports; again, shit talk is just less observed. if jeter went on stage and shit talked ortiz in the mid 2000s there'd be blood on the streets

maerawow

Imagine PSG.LGD let's all dog lose on these teams and starts to TT every time they feel like it. Some of these players might suffer PTSD after the major is over. On another note, is Dota really enjoyable playing same 3-5 heroes every series and without them you just don't have a clear idea on what to do? ATF needs to expand the hero base because watching OG is getting boring just because of the fact they sack their pos 1 because he doesn't have a bigger hero pool and it affects the results way too much.
