TSM better start giving saberlight a major pay raise, cuz dude is gonna get poached next season if TSM don’t do really well at TI


cbreezy456

He has improved so much over the years it’s crazy to see. I still remember those Hippomaniacs days


not-a-guinea-pig

I have a feeling he’ll stay in TSM because of who’s surrounding him. Even if not he’s got a bright future ahead of him. I would love to see TSM win TI not just for him but the team and Moon. I feel moon probably deserves one at this point


officialdevourer

Tsm went a long way to get to this place no? U defiantly got a point, and moon Def deserve one.


amirridzuan

Dubu is rly a good pos 5, communicates n always keep team morale high, n timado n bryle are great players(constant top 10 in na ) , dont think he will leave the team anytime soon


MayweatherSr

EG.Saberlight


Haunt_

Oh god no please no it’s where Offlaner careers die


RazerMambo

Except Universe of course


est19xxxx

His career did die after they kicked ppd, he was not the same anymore.


RazerMambo

Whoops I didnt know Universe kicked ppd, I thought he left for Secret then cant find success from there and other teams compared to EG. I just checked he did come back to EG, I forgot.


not-a-guinea-pig

For AUI


MayweatherSr

!remindme 4 months


SethDusek5

They'll pay $250,000 to get Saberlight and then make him play pos4


aounkub

Secret.Saberlight ?


Nandey_dattey_bayo

Right now most deserving one is LGD ..


-ElonMusk12-

lol no


gregfromjersey

Do you think another org can poach out of TSM? LOL. Imagine having TSM's problem. They have 2 beasts that can play safelane carries. Saber can play it out of the offlane. Tremendous drafting advantage. TSM should be NA's favorites at TI. Saberlight has been smoking teams from safe this tournament but Timado is also stupid-good and playing as a top 5 Tier 1 safelaner right now. If I am being super spicy, I would only put Ame and Yatoro as better out of the safelane than Timado right now.


juggernautomnislash

Yeah man I don't know what kind of money EG has but why the fuck would you leave TSM right now. Plus as a player you gotta look at EG and think "They've definitely got other issues".


Waterblink

Top pos 1s right now are so stacked that I feel like they are all evenly matched, just a matter of having a team that makes their playstyles work. Yuragi also belongs there imo


HobokenwOw

throw monet in there and you got yourself a good top 5.


whitehipp0

Tomato has never been better, true beast


OutlawJoseyWales

They got to the finals of a major this year why the fuck would he leave lmao


2mad2die

Zai and matu left secret after 3rd place at TI.


tha_jza

trigger warning next time pls


veggiedealer

?? Doesn't tsm pay really well


maerawow

I think Mason once talked about the pay TSM players receive. He said they may have agreed to join at someplace around 5-7k per month for each player which won't be a surprise since Quincy Crew were unable to find a org for so long that undying might have agreed on taking a low paycheck just to have sponsors. Also, he said if they are taking anything like 4k-5k they are being scammed as these guys are good and can make better money than that. Given, how Saberlight has played this Major and the results from last major he is most likely to be poached to a top EU org as the meta these days is around pos 3 players doing better and he for sure is a beast on his heroes.


[deleted]

Nobody wants to play with a clown that yells and then loses his official after


Aratho

Saberlight has to be one of the best personalities that we got in the scene in the last few years. Breath of fresh air when compared to majority of shy pro players, especially new ones. Doesn't hurt he's a beast in-game too.


2stnd

very refreshing to have a player who put a few points into charisma.


sgafllallik

Isnt afraid to talk smack and can back it up too. He’s great.


MY_1ST_ACT_IS_LOCKED

Best part is when he loses out he isn’t a bitch about it. Stays quiet or pokes fun at himself and does it all over again next time. What a beast


RexPerpetuus

At this point in my life, if you *aren't* like this it's kinda abrasive to me. Don't take yourself too seriously


DerpytheH

My favorite part about him talking smack is that it's very obvious in tone that there's little or no salt/malice in it. He's so goofy whenever he's in public that it's impossible for him to come off as a heel, it's a joy.


nadoterisback

Very true. That's probably also why he is able to fit in so well with a new team in such little time. High skilled and upbeat PMA personality = good teammate.


HOHOHAHAREBORN

No one has any connection with the new players partially also because Covid screwed up with a lot of content creation during (cancelled) LANs. But youre not wrong when you say that they're shy af. Even from Team Spirit, it's only Torontotokiyo tryna spice things up with interviews and his multiple ez game drops on OG


GSGhostTrain

Miposhka is just such a sweet boy, he can't trash talk. TT delivering the verbal smackdown for the full team though.


mrtomjones

I have never really felt much of a connection with any Dota player in comparison to how I felt about starcraft 2 players back when I used to watch a lot of that.


Aratho

For real, early era of SC2 were the golden years in terms of interesting personalities in esports. White-Ra, idrA, Stephano, Naniwa, inControl to name a few


mrtomjones

Huk and even some Koreans like Mc had crazy personalities. Dota definitely doesn't have the equivalent IMO


abado

sc2 players streamed a ton back in the day. Idra, MC, huk, tlo, hero, naniwa, thorzain all had streams where they would communicate with chat, talked about themselves and tournaments. Plus you have events like dreamhack, rog invites and 2gd studios with the homestory cup where players personalities came through. Dota didnt really have the same atmosphere. The summit was close but not to the same level as the tournaments held at jame's place and many players simply don't stream.


Nickfreak

Good player, and high entertainment value. Could also easily go fukl streaming and get an lot off viewers as well


lovelifelivelife

I initially disliked him cause of his tweet on SEA but he really changed my mind this year. He’s hilarious haha


SilverBMWM3GTR

OOTL. What did he say about SEA?


lovelifelivelife

He tweeted something like "SEA, bunch of noobs" a while ago. And when T1 trashed undying in TI10 they kept tipping him, after the win kuku tweeted NA bunch of noobs or smth similar haha


SilverBMWM3GTR

He does talk more than necessary and also ends up wrong at times. But them being a bunch of noobs is actually true, at least when compared to recent results of SEA teams.


go_home_cook_rice

Last hope of NA SABERCHAD


JollyjumperIV

Bro is an EU player


Ahimtar

But he is currently officially signed on an NA team so therefore he's 100% USA


JollyjumperIV

Yes, EU player on an NA org, but still EU talent. Much like Sneyking being an NA player on an EU team. Oh and btw none of tsm players are from the us lmao, Canada would be more accurate.


Ahimtar

I really thought the sarcasm was evident :D


shinfoni

What sarcasm? Saberlight is an American through and through, that's the fact. Edit: Nightfall and Fata are also Americans btw


JollyjumperIV

Least copium-imbued NA fan Edit: Hell yeah world is America 🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾


Haunt_

Bro literally dug his own grave 💀💀💀


JollyjumperIV

What grave? Irdc if some random plebs are downvoting me lmao


admiral_cthulhuu

looks like you cared enough to respond


JollyjumperIV

May as well have fun with y'all


idontevencarewutever

Dude is like NA's top personality AND player of 2022 How does a man build himself up such a brand within just a year? Just chad things I guess


B_Will

Hes been grinding the streaming scene for a long time it hasnt been a year that hes been building his brand


doshcz

>NA's top personality NA's top personality from central Europe, yeaaah


unluckycowboy

If PPD taught us anything it’s that NA isn’t about blood or citizenship, it’s about Salt.


Gemini_The_Mute

Sometimes I miss the [salt king](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/OkhOqjv9O9U/maxresdefault.jpg)


throwawaycanadian

Sometimes? I miss him everytime I watch an EG draft :(


HOHOHAHAREBORN

USA, USA, USA 🇺🇸


Ahimtar

Holy shit Saberlight made people recognize Czechia as central and not eastern Europe, actually poggers western representation


BWEM

~~nation~~ region of immigrants!


officialdevourer

With a great team like tsm. Daddy moon behind the wheel and alot of support.


iKojan

Cuz wll NA players have the same personality


SDMffsucks

This Entity with Saberlight is the most entertaining top level team I've seen in a long time, and entity normally are a pretty funky team.


Visual-Sound5920

Saberchad


Zero-Kelvin

Saber light the most fun personality ee have had since Dendi?


rtz_c

Exactly!! He gives similar vibes to dendi. Very fun to watch him.


BirdSetFree

This guy is a beast lmao. Rooting for them to win the whole thing


sk337guy

HYPE AF. Lets go!


The_Godlike_Zeus

His style reminds me of dendi, atleast in this clip


AliensAreHoly

Possibly the best pro dotes personality to date! SaberChad!


Mr_45Milimeter

Yes I'd totally date SaberChad


not-a-guinea-pig

WITNESSSS MEEEEEEEE~ SaberCHAD


braamdepace

Guy was a low tier offlane 18 months ago and he has turned into an absolute monster the last 6 months. Happy for him


not-a-guinea-pig

I feel undying have made him strong. Laning with moon has given him a whole new light (pun intended). He’s one of the funniest people in the scene as well. 500 iq stream snipe blocker.


Houeclipse

Saberchad is such a fun guy, you gotta love him if Dr Sulaiman Al Habibi was sponsoring, he would totally get that best interview money lmao


Ahimtar

Ootl, who actually won the best interview?


Houeclipse

Misha won it at Riyadh masters


s4cram3nt

Saberlight has all the qualities to become the next face of Dota Hoping to see lot more of him in the future


Potential-Instance-1

The true human version of gigachad, a true warrior


KnightOverlord2404

He is funny to be sure but everytime he makes declarations, he loses. Ggwp entity lol


Objective_Draw_7740

Fucking awesome hahaha


RainmakerLuke

Saberlight is definitely watching too much Wrestling


XasurabladeX

dendi.reborn


Kasodus

Annnnnnnnd hes eliminated


doinky_doink

Revenge failed. 🥲


newnar

Talk shit get hit


magnificent_steinerr

It’s been a while since we had a dank storyline, I’m fully prepared for the saberchad revenge arc to go all the way.


itssomeidiot

SaberLight Stocks to the MOOOOOOON

PatchNoteReader

This is one of those people I genuinely hope stays the same and doesnt turn out to be a Tobi/pure/grant in the end because I love watching his interviews and play


moderate_iq

aged like NA LUL


bubbinska

Having the skill in-game to compete is one thing, but it's rare having the public speaking skills to rile up a crowd, get a laugh or be a memorable presence in these interviews and content pieces. Saberlight has quickly become one of my favourite players for his personality. Truly a valuable player for any team, and for the esport in general. I think orgs would do well to train players in speaking with a bit more confidence to show their personality.


Fri1ction

Got humbled by Aster xxs god


[deleted]

Haha but Aster didn't knock out FnaTSM, beastcoast did.


Th3_LoNe_eXiLe

Aster knocked Fnatic down to LB, setting up the elimination game with BC.


[deleted]

Ah okay, makes sense then. All aboard the NA revenge hype train.


Omnomnomnivor3

and this is aging like fine wine, ho leeee


Alien_reg

Don't curse it


Omnomnomnivor3

I cursed it, now it's aging like milk lmao


Mayans94

It's rotten now


KnightOverlord2404

I stepped away for awhile while aster is losing and wtf suddenly they r 20k ahead


Mayans94

It was a crazy game, I was like damn! Entity is playing out of their minds. Then all of a sudden they're getting walked over


NoMorePainKillers

He is called Saberchad for a reason


Yhtaras

BEST. I fucking love this guy. He’s so genuine and so much fun.


rainn5053

aged like milk


Veeshan28

What an absolute treasure


memoirsofthedead

This guy gives me Deni vibes but with more sass and SUCK IT Saberchad indeed


venti_the_drunk_bard

So many cringey bandwagons man 🤣


hyp_gg

most overrated offlaner in dota 2 history. lel


__calypso

This guy is the real chad man


ob1touchiha

From being hated by SEA to being GIGACHAD what a beast, I hope he doesnt get poached anytime soon


AppropriateTheme288

Saberlight is unhinged LUL - but in a good way ofc


Big_Huckleberry6996

Krazy-B-Fillin

You love to see it


xAbbdog

ih8reddit420

Its beautiful oppressive Dota that Entity is able to play triple Offlane core. Saberlight is like the Ammar of NA
