Please tell me there's not going to be an MSS/Envy role swap happening sometimes... only reason I could possibly think for that is if they want a Meepo strat and Envy doesn't want to play it. | ||

Envy can play the space create dude just not as good as his standard splitpush/farm/timing but yeah it's more for draft flexibility possibly for example envy has been playing LC which gives them a team specific first pick material since it could go offlane or safelane like abarekiller said it's even better with bat assuming he gets it right since bat can be played on 4/1/3 they already have razor as a 1/2 pos draft or their puck(2/3) and bb(1/2/3) | ||

I still think that you want a Meepo trump card if at all possible so hopefully they are working on that too. You only need about 15 games to win TI and an unexpected Meepo against a good draft can be practically a freebie and leads to draft advantage every game afterwards as people have to stress about it. | ||

Mid is so important that some people consider it pos. 1 and others don't so sometimes it's confusing. | ||

It's really just a laneswitch if bat ends up mid and fata still plays the DPS/midgame hero no problem just starts in the safelane. Or the bat is played safelane. It's not impossible if the draft ends up with a LC + farming mid though EE is probably playing the LC and MSS the bat but it's a nice option. On July 17 2017 20:46 FuzzyJAM wrote: Yeah, makes sense. Something like jungle Ench for lane disruption and non-carry damage, two strong solo laners (maybe LC, Tide, Brood, Bat, Bristle?) who ate ok without support, and dual lane mid (maybe MK, Sky, Ogre, ES with SF, Storm, Huskar, Sniper?) to get carry mid a good start into strong snowball could work. I still think that you want a Meepo trump card if at all possible so hopefully they are working on that too. You only need about 15 games to win TI and an unexpected Meepo against a good draft can be practically a freebie and leads to draft advantage every game afterwards as people have to stress about it. Meepo is no longer that surprising anymore, it's weird power spike doesn't get people dumbfounded how to respond anymore. I'd say a huskar memepush would work just as well. | ||

EE has the problem on storm of going full hero mode. He will jump into 5 thinking he can get out and make big plays... and then it throws the game. Storm is a weird hero where you can do so many cool things, but you can fuck up bad so easily | ||
