âWe just lost ixmike88, Sammyboy, and Gunnar. Theyâre gone. 4zoomers is taking our kidneys, team team is taking our liver. Itâs done.
âNow, how do we replace them?â
âWell thereâs this ritsu kid, great gaming body, long slender fingers-
yeah and the sound the keyboard makes when his fingers hit the keys, you can hear it all the way of the lan cafe-
itâs a beautiful, sharp sound, hands like a concert pianistâ
âBBBBZZZZT. WRONG. We canât afford him, and even if we could, we still have to replace ixmike88 and Gunnarâ
âWhat are we trying to replace gentlemen?â
âWell, we need a coach, a safelaner, and a midlane-â
âWRONG.â
âWe are trying to replace WINS. Youâre looking in all the wrong places. We are looking at the big picture, at analytics. Take this Venezualan kid, Rico. Nobody takes him seriously because he has only one eye. But if you look at his numbers, at his mmr, this guy is one the most undertated assets in ALL OF DOTA. And we can have him for TEN CENTS A MONTH.â
âIf we try to play like Evil Geniuses in here, we will lose to Evil Geniuses out there. We are blackjack players counting cards at the casino.
Take this Cuban national kid, jorge. Not only will he cost us nothing, we can actually make HIM pay US by blackmailing him and threatening to report him to immigration.â
âThis is the new Plasma. If you donât like it, you can leave, but this is how weâre going to win the international.â
