Some mirrors are different e.g. there's almost zero point playing SF mirror past FB because dying once is super hard to recover from in that matchup. Thing with lategame 1v1 is that its so different from normal DotA theres just a bunch of crazy shit that works and its fun to see how high level players view the game when there's actually enough gold in game to finish major items and not just laning shit. | ||

I free up time so attorneys cause because our clients approve case time by the hour, not by the fixed sum. I don't know the reason for this weird thing with banks, but they all do it. | ||

Runes obv matter but rune control is usually lopsided 1 way or another to begin with in non-mirrors so when both players chance different runes the hero that should come out ahead often does anyway esp with Bounty rune in the game. | ||
