#55 - Playing Dota From Behind Sep 27, 2019

Show notes

The pod attempt to cover a difficult and nebulous topic in this week's episode, with a discussion on how to best play from a disadvantage. The crew start with some calibration and pro scene chat, before defining what it means to be 'behind' in a game of Dota. The remainder of the talk revolves around how to change the state of the game (through split-pushing, ganking, vision, items etc etc) to get your team a window of opportunity to come back into the match!
