Why he is the King of midlane 

This kind of content is amazing! Please do more on other positions as well 🙏🏻

A cool play you skipped over at 19:48 after void dies and storm goes to get the rune, Wisp agros the wave so dire creeps go under tower and die before void respawns.

Content is amazing so please do more of this. More on pos 2 wouldn’t mind either. But man…. That mic, geez!

0:09 Handsome Squidward vs 0:15 Giga Chad

Love this type of content. It can be hard to think about mid matchups after a loss even when I watch my own replays, especially if they aren't common in the high mmr scene. These types of videos showing how pros approach the lane and how matchups play out is super helpful

S-tier video. S-tier analysis. I like how it's speaking in specifics but very applicable to general matchups.

Laptop mic moment

punching the wave at lvl 1 as ranged vs melee is good for the reasons BSJ said, no double wave etc, but its also a lot about the meta surrounding bottle and rushing it before the 2 minute mark for water runes. if you can make your opponent miss that timing and either cede both to you or just lose the two bottle charges the rune would give them, it can honestly auto-win some matchups, like this one because once ember is out of mana he is a pretty easy kill for QOP, either that or he conserves his mana but then loses out on more and more CS which snowballs the lane in radiant's favor. since water runes melee mids are super awkward to play if your CS is less than perfect.

Dude the audio

You had me on "In the wise words of Jenkins - There is always game Two." I lol'd right there.

Yes, do more!! I miss this type of content, as im not super new but still i dont know why some pro players are so hailed, so this close up look is very helpful and cool to watch

Great video thanks BSJ. Walking through the thought process and reasoning for it is very useful

15:44 id like to add that sumail does not ward highgroudn so quin cant draw aggro like here where he would like to, the way to play for quin is to go close to range creep that's giving vision and then draw aggro too btw

In both games, boboka comes right before the 4 min rune to secure an advantage for sumail. Amazing synergy between them always

Yes! Definitely looking forward to more analysis video from you BSJ! Can't stress how much I have learned Dota from watching them. Especially this kind of specific content where we get to know what are the decision made by pros.

I like this idea for vids BSJ. I want to see how pro tier pos 5 player's decisions and movements help their team win the game from a macro perspective please...

So the conclusion - basic stuff like denies, last hits, efficient trading and such are irrelevant in the face of ganking support, so your main objective is being impervious to ganks and setting up your opponent for a gank. Inform your support when you can kill your opponent with little help from them. Do it beforehand. Not in the moment.

Very nice Video rly enjoyed it and gets you deeper thoughts about how to win matchups and grow my own game would enjoy more of that for every role think sutch a breakdown can really make a different

it seems like at each tier of dota rank there are certain things that you can capitalize and punish. at the high levels coming down to literally single creep kills

Boboka won the lane 2 times xD

At 3:17 he indeed canceled the 1 bottle charge with sleights

Seems BSJ used the wrong mic lol.

I like the content. Your mic seems to be making some background sound and it makes the vid a bit harder to watch.

1 thing I wish there was in dota is a 1v1 league or a 2v2 for lanes. where individual skill matters way more. obviously sum was wining with the rat boy but the gank cemented the lane. I wish ive seen how this lane goes without the gank. a 1v1 pro league or even a 1v1 pub match making would be really cool.

Quinn fucking destroyed sumaiil brat there, there is one or at least two heroes from sumail's team coming to mid all the time, GOAT QUINN.

Love this content, would be great to see more of it.

I thought my speaker was broken lol.

off topic but Sumail now looks like a gigachad compared to Quinn who still looks like a teen girl.

That arrow dodge was cool... If lich wasnt there I think it would be different

bsj do some more, these are very informative and they do help us

I believe, that at 19:30 he knew that he was already dead, that's why he took cs

would be interesting to see this type of video about topson

This the most amazing things I have learnt ever.. never thought of it in such detailed manner ❤

Yo BSJ, there sounds like there's a mic issue. There's stattic and clipping in your audio. Pls fix it!

Loved this BSJ! Ty buddy!

Fantastic video. Would love more pos 2 content

I've been hearing that Miracle has come back from his break and has been just as good as he was before. Wouldn't mind a break down of his game play. :)

Great content per usual. But I think your compressor/noise cancelation could use some tweaking, it's a little noisy everytime you speak. compared to yesterdays video (how to support like an immortal) which was perfect.

8:24 I didn't get that well , more creeps for who ? if you have more creeps you go or is it if they (enemy midlaner) have more creeps you go

More of this, please... It's really great

Good stuff. Would love more videos like this

first game suma1l def got the edge cause of his team, i mean 5 denies is ok but really in 2-3 waves they can be even if boboka doesn't rotate, there's no gaurantee he keeps snowballing. Boboka first secured a kill on quinn then they secure the 6 minute rune and another kill for sumail, finally they secure yet another kill on quinn at 8 miunutes when he's already behind, so i really think its an exageration to say the difference in the lane is the 5 denies sumail has over quinn xD . Second game wasn't as drastic in terms of help but again hand boboka not came in quinn would probably start coming back in the lane and not die.

The conclusion is doing 30 different fancy moves puts you a few denies ahead; a better support gives you over 1k gold lead and more mana/hp through fills than you could possibly save by playing better

Enjoy the content sir, but please do something about the audio quality - background static/interference is rough.

Sumail is somewhat out of his prime but he still manage to dominate his lanes in most of the game.

6:07 "The big difference here is that sumail has 5 denies". The big difference there is bat securing the second rune for sumail :)). In my experience with qop vs ember, qop is stronger the first 3-4 levels, but then ember starts to take over the lane after. The fact that sumail had a couple extra denies at level 4 was expected, but the fact that bat came to secure the rune right as ember was about to hit that power swing really sealed the deal. Bat was the real mvp there.

I didn't know Dota was this deep.

There’s some weird static on your microphone audio

Really good vid man, will watch if U make more 👍

Great content, super insightful

Just an out of topic question: Does Arcana progress go up when winning pro games?

Because he have king of pos 4 ganking at 4 minute mark?

Hi, can u make a tutorial for Micro hero plz

Please do an analysis for Pos 4 and pos 5 games too.

King > Quinn

Can you do carry analysis like this as well?

They kill the creeps mid fast to get to lvl 2 faster. Well that why I do it back then. Lvl 2 vs a lvl 1 that's a hell of an advantage.

The King vs The Quinn...

Bsj finally making midlane content again. Thanks alot!

RIP mic quality ICANT

sumail mid is scary!

This is not BSJ its SgtSizzles

bring back the old intro, it’s a classic

very good video but i had to stop in the middle of it because your microphone/voice settings dude dont you hear this yourself?

I think Quin had those two sleight-of-fist securing creep because he thinks his sleight-of-fist is lv1 and its CD is not short.

"Difference in this lane came largely down to denies" - what? Are we watching a different replay? The difference in this lane largely came down to bat ganking ember and giving qop double rune? I don't think 5 denies did anything compared to that.

3:00 or he is just waiting to see if ember takes root spell.

To be honest, I think you're overselling the first game a lot. Yes, QOP build a slight lead for herself which is expected in my opinion. But what made the difference is the 4 rotations she got by min 7 compared to just 1 for Quinn (who even fed a kill). I appreciate the talk about the mechanics, but neither midlaner played significally better than the other. Sumail just had a ton more ressources put into his lane.

Audio is a little scuffed my man!

just some feedback, the zing-ing sound feedback is lowering the quality of ur content, good idea to rectify it

The audio is a little fucked?

Audio quality in this video is pretty awful, what happened to your mic?

aged well

can you do a pos 4 analysis

Thank you BSJ, thank you so much!

King vs Queen* 😂

great content!

Comment on the same games but the other roles from teammates and how they were performing

sumail vs miracle next please

My 2k brain only sees boboka as the x factor😂 Twice

King of midlane got shitted by Miracle yesterday ! 😂

Waiting for miracle videos thanks

Good stuff!

Watched NTS vs Sumail. Why sumail is the king of midlane?

liked for the tongue at the end

audio quality man

i just loike listening to this man talk

when pros miss last hit they do it "intentionally"

Solid content

more pls

make video with bubby

Video is borderline unwatchable with headphones because of the buzz in the audio.

Pseudo-deny master race! It’s the final frontier of last hitting against good players. Now, nobody wins. But at least I’m getting 100% xp.

Mic issues

Whats a king to a god? Should honestly do Mgod review

bro you are cohosting dreamleague and u upload a video?

yeah his a king until some chubby king slayer from SEA region defeat him in 1 vs 1 remember????

queen vs quinn

The level is so freaking high
