So, my first Tier 1 LAN has come to an end
We played 2 out of 8 maps and finished in 17th–20th place—not the best result, of course, but exactly what we deserved, so I wasn’t really upset about it... An incredible experience, intense emotions, and the realization of what we’re missing to win in the future.
A big thank you to everyone who cheered me on and supported me—all the best to everyone.
Earlier, Nikolai “WoE” Ruban published a tier list of first-position heroes for professional matches and high-rank play. He identified Kez and Lone Druid as the best heroes, while listing Anti-Mage, Arc Warden, Phantom Assassin, Sven, Abaddon, and Wraith King among the worst.
