It's also a fragile composition that's very micro-intensive. In the current mappool kickback is a decent sair/reaver map so we saw it played a few times in proleague that way. You need a safe 3rd gas for the composition to work unless you do game ending damage quickly. And as you say, you need good airspace to fly in and out without getting sniped by hydras. I wouldn't call it a troll build, more a very technical map specific one. Edit: also one of the downside of it is that usually it leads to very long split map scenario, unless either player makes a micro mistake | ||
