On this week’s Theorycraft Thursday Proud and Ursi are covering plenty: Ursi’s movement to EU West servers, the ethics of eating Jellyfish, nutritional cannibalism, and more! Our full segment is on how to effectively win after you’ve created an early lead instead of throwing it all away with a couple bad moves; we talk amindset, itemization, and other overall strategies to secure your wins after a dominant early game. The hero combo this week is Lich and Enigma in the offlane with the intention of creating an early lead for your team and an early deficit for the enemy due to the double deny mechanic; lets see how it goes!

TmT: Confidence, Communication, and Reverse Dog Years
On this week’s Teach Me Tuesday Ursi is joined by John from Shelved Games since Bee is out sick this week! We’re covering plenty of stuff but mostly focusing on branching out as a player, the most common and yet most difficult part of all our dota lives, particularly how mid is so awkward to learn but so gratifying once you’ve gotten comfortable! On the questions front we’re covering being confident in your decisions, communicating effectively as a mid player that’s having a tough time, Save Your Friends Syndrome, how best to use your drum charges, splitpushing vs. fighting as a core, and plenty more!

We also learn the Ursi is incapable of doing even basic math and should be properly shamed.

TcT: Fishing For MMR w/ Ember Spirit & Magnus
On this week’s Theorycraft Thursday Proud and Ursi dig deep to assess their current inability to win dota 2 games. Maybe it’s our fault, maybe it’s our teammates fault, who knows (we do, it’s their fault)? We’re playing Magnus offlane to accent a safelane Ember Spirit pick and seeing how it all pans out! This and plenty more on today’s episode!

7.19b Patch Note Review
Proud and Ursi are covering the entirety of the post-TI balance patch 7.19b! It’s mostly nerfs to top-picked TI heroes that we somewhat expected but a lot of smaller, more interesting nerfs and some interesting overall changes to our pubs before the upcoming major patch we expect sometime around a month from now!
Title: TcT: Grimstroke or, Who Knows Where This Pipe Goes?
On this week’s Theorycraft Thursday Proud and Ursi are completing their new-hero trist with Grimstroke by playing him and trying to convince Ursi he needs to become a Grimstroke spammer (spoiler: he will be)! We’re also casually covering our strategy now that we’re trying to play and climb more seriously, a lot of lane partner pair-ups with Grimstroke, how to fit Earthshaker into a team comp, why pubs are bad at Spectre even though she’s great, adapting pro or high-level strategies into your pub play, countering a defensive duo safelane, Mario’s advantures in dimensional portals, and plenty more!
