EPTWell randoming as last pick means you're not filling the role your team is lacking (usually) and shadow blade on Gondar is about as useful as dagon Furion? It's a 3000g investment on an item with mediocre stats and an extremely situational effect that will only be helpful if your team is already winning.

Dagon Furion is a legit strat if you go dagon 1 before boots. It can be devastating (and I don't go it - I have teammates who do). Shadow Blade really doesn't help Gondar in any meaningful way. | ||

I'd love to expand my friend list beyond my competitive team, and the other teams I scrim against so I can pub stack for fewer games lost via shadow blade Gondar and last pick random Sorry only play Europe, add me though if you want to scrim/play on Europe. Our USW ping is like 320 so it's a bit high  | ||

So I started farming the safest place to farm, which was the enemy jungle. I was untouched while my team kept on getting forced into fight after fight that we could not win, so I decided to continue farming my force staff. Then the game ended. | ||

Then my team continued to pick Invoker + Slardar, and finally a veno. Invoker obviously went mid, Slardar and Huskar decided they wanted to dual carry top, and venomancer came bottom with me. I was happy thinking I had a support hero to help me in lane but he started to compete for every cs and attempt random fights when I was oom. Eventually I decided to become a support PL and farmed up wards + mek but at this time they were already flaming me for not being a carry.

I had that huge wtf moment in the second game as our courier crossed over several empty creep camps. When I checked it out, I found your army of illusions. XD | ||
