It's too late for TongFu to push now, even if their creep is in their favor.

Facing elimination in biggest tournament of the year? Yeah let's not play safe..
There is strategy, too. Mostly positional play in this one. The low kill score tells not only the tale of carefulness but also of very good positioning, and being able to do that for 46 minutes+.. requires a lot of focus.
Don't like it? Nobody is forcing it down your throat..


So playing safe is staying in your base while slowly losing your huge advantage? How is that safe.

The linkens is one of the absolute biggest problems. Without roar there's no way to catch out storm or morphling.


They need to play perfectly and get a purge off to break the linkens and then have KingJ roar right after

He can drop the shadow blade and bf and go critical mass mode.

I almost feel like he should just go Rapier and try to end it, this isn't going to turn out well if they drag this on for much longer...


That would take some cojones, i like the heart choice, if he really wants to get six slotted daedalus or mkb would be safer choice.


BM just need a refresher, then they insta win.

After the last two go-go-go games from Orange, this game just felt like a foreplay that just wouldn't end.

30k networth ~ 36-7 minutes in.

How much does IG benefit from stretching the game out? How big can weaver get?

iG has tri core and morph can outscale the alchemist by a bit but the weaver could potentially get bigger.

I'm not sure morph outscales morph in a manfight, but in a teamfight maybe.

Are you sure about this?

99%

But again, morph might offer more in a teamfight / picking off supports / split push.

Edit: I've written extensively on this / a lot of experience in this.

I guess you want to reread something in this conversation
Oh and happy bday.

Alliance's style isn't boring at all. They do fun gangs and play balanced dota...

If you look at the items iG went, they went Linkens not only to block Roar but to block any countermeasures against their splitpushing, there is no way Tongfu can catch Ferrari or Zhou if they have Linkens up.

I'm not sure, but imho it's possible Tongfu is unable to win now unless some major big plays happen.

This reminds me of a game with Eternalenvy where he kept taking all the farm at a maxed-inventory 8k bank point. Hogging farm for more (10) bkbs is NOT worth it.

People literally say this every game that a team gets their carry to 6 slots and keep farming.

They don't have a CHOICE. No other team member can safely or quickly push out a lane fast enough. If someone other than Alch is doing it, the split-push takes map control because Furion/Storm/Morph all push faster than any of the other 4 heroes.

Farm becomes less and less seamless to distribute as a game goes long like this. And at the point where it is seamless, the increased farm on the carry tends to be worthwhile.

It's just an unfortunate matter of being unable to end the game at their strong timing. They're not deliberately choosing to keep giving farm to the Alch, it's that if the game has gotten to this point, they don't have a choice anymore.
