If lane switching was available, what could be done?

I would just abandon that shit but im a baddie. push another lane really hard, that way they either have to tp luna away, denying her farm, or lose towers.


I guess. So this way, Luna's supports (VS/Jakiro) will leave bot lane and just have DK vs. Luna.

Live and learn!

Usually best to skip it at lvl 6 for another level of synergy or 1 early point in rabid, but best not skipping it past lvl 9 or 10. Your ult is your ticket to getting a ton of hp and being tanky as hell without needing to put any gold on your main hero (except maybe tranquils), allowing you to put all your big items on your bear. You can switch in and out of ult form when needed. Stay in normal form when you're freefarming safely with all enemies accounted for in the safe lane or in the jungle so you can walk around faster and hit things at ranged, switch into ult form whenever it's not safe or teamfighting.

That works... sometimes. I did that once with Chen, Ench,Enigma, Prophet and Lesh. We stomped so hard. Another time we did it it didn't work. Just goes to show how all games are different.

Just played a CM game with a few other TL guys, we got furion/TA/jakiro/luna/vs and did the lgd.int 5 man dota at luna lvl 8 strat. Felt so bad for the opponent team, it's pretty gay to play against.

Damn just played a game where we got "meta'd" pretty hard. It looks like I'll have to catch up on some of the higher tier picks nowadays (especially chinese scene where Luna, Nyx, Lina is always around)

My team had (radiant):
1. BH
2. QoP
3. Rubick
4. Enigma
5. DK

They had (dire):
1. Jakiro
2. Luna
3. VS
4. Tiny
5. Tide

Bans were: Magnus, Sven, Void, Naix, Wisp, TA, DS, Furion, Naga, Undying

So, are we just bad or severely outpicked? That Jakiro/VS/Luna trilane is nuts. Too much dps early because of the auras, and enough disables/nukes to kill fast. Tide vs. BH at offlane was not the best either, and Tiny vs. QoP is meh. Our Enigma was jungling/pulling for bot lane.



Sometimes it just happens. I've managed to scrape some wins when outpicked by throwing the meta out the window and just pulling the crazy strats you would never hope to work. In that case, I'd let Luna free farm a lane, overload mid with 2 heroes, qop and bh maybe, send nigma and rubick in their to double jungle and DK can solo offlane vs tide. Obviously this would happen after you get to your lanes, die a few times, and realize you wont win that way.


Honestly against Luna/VS/Jakiro, it might've been a good idea to just let that go. Almost impossible to lane against. Can't really think of a better hero selection to try and fight that off.


Something kotl based might have worked - once you start having infinte mana, some cheesy kotl combos will keep your lane alive until your mid hero can get a good rune to gank with / your offlaner hits level 6. It definitely comes down to play / positioning, however.

I want techies ASAP, just for the purpose of doing the SF challenge, but with techies instead.
From the Ghastly Eyrie I can see to the ends of the world, and from this vantage point I declare with utter certainty that this one is in the bag!
