Which is fine in winning games where they have map control and he gets them fast. In a losing game where he's just sitting on 1500 and not buying wards, Na'Vi gives up alot. See their games vs. Fnatic in groupstage. | ||

The only similarity in how they are aimed and that they are called hook. But in reality, clock hook is more similar to a blink strike than pudge hook in terms of how it affects the game. | ||

Both play a more farmy support but Alliance never lack the support basics. In fact the support basics are actually the most impressive thing about alliance. | ||

If there's a "weak point" on Na'Vi, it's actually probably Kuroky, not because of his individual skill (which is fantastic), but because of how inconsistent he is about maintaining support basics in a losing game (wards most importantly). It's just that Na'Vi very rarely gets into games disadvantaged enough where that matters (and when Dendi plays Pudge, he buys wards/smoke for his solo ganks himself). Agreed - though I think XBOCT has always been very strong on LAN | ||

I thought it was a weakness too but they've adjusted so well it's more a unique playstyle pretty notable that [A] do a similar thing, though Akke still plays really support-ey | ||

From my pov it seem as a pretty easy skill to use, it "hangs" there for a long time, it catches when going out and coming back in and it have a low CD. It just looks cool, and some hooks make him look like he has map hacks. This game there havent been too many jaw dropping ones, but you should check out a dendi hooks highlight video. It's a kind of predict and try to hit spell,you need to think about where the hero is going to be an place the hook, so it's a bit of luck, some prediction. and hooks are extremely satisfying. | ||
