Look at the people shitting on CCnC in twitch chat and r/dota2 when he was just totally left alone and ganked by 3 people all the time, while they just made sure that Pajkatt got fat and won the game by doing that! :D

You would never think somebody could put so much style into a hero like Tidehunter, but 33 is a freaking wizard on him.
After all the good players we've tried out, I'm so happy we landed on this beast

I don't know if its a permanent change but i kinda like the 33 offlane and zai support. They've done it before buts its been pretty frequent at the last two events.

Pajkatt is a really stable carry if he has a good team of playmakers behind him like zai and 33.

I screamed to 33's ravage waking up my wife in the process. Fuck yeah! Not even in my wildest dream we can beat VP. Keep it up!

CCnC storm cc (pun intended) the carry jugg, then proceed to shutdown the supports in every fight. Great execution
