what? lol pudge hook is a skillshot. they knew that threat was there they decided to take the risk, and it didnt work out for them it was a high risk high reward play for both teams if pudge missed hook, then TF would have killed a couple heroes, raxed probably, and won game from there maybe if pudge landed hook, then they nullify the presence of aegis what is so hard to understand?? | ||

Not only is it hard to pull off, it is incredibly risky, if you try that hook tp combo and miss, you are leaving your team to fight 5v4, as well as losing chen's sendback which may have helped you not lose the game out of the lopsided teamfight. It is extremely risky and should only be attempted if you are far behind + Show Spoiler + Or far enough ahead you can just mess around In the end, 2.8 million is at stake, this isn't just a pub match everyone have fun. | ||

That said: its allowed, its a crowd pleaser, it looks really cool. WP Navi. I can guarantee though that if this becomes a common strategy theres gonna be lots of calls for fixing it. This is the typical kind of strategy that is fun the first and second time, not the 50th (SC2 achon toilets says hello. That was also awesome first few times). | ||

If they miss they have to 4v5 till pudge comes back, TF was running instead of actually pushing the engage Na'vi was doing it because they couldn't 5v5...or even win a fight off of a good Hook initiation. Frankly, if you're far behind and you have a Pudge and Chen, you would be stupid not to repeatedly try fountainhooking. If you're not going to fight the enemy team regardless, then keep trying for a OHKO with no risk to Pudge or Chen. | ||

Sending pudge home can cost you teamfights so easily. Sadly, TongFu didn't capitalise on failed hooks. Very well deserved win, suck it haters they're the same people who complain about cheese in BW/SC2, basically people who have never actually played a video game in their life and live to complain about how others player games | ||

The issue is that once you have the timing down (and don;t fool yourself they will practice it now that they've seen it works) and suddenly it's going force pudge permabans because it oneshots any hero and goes through shit like aegies and BKB. | ||

I tend to be towards the bottom, you play to win, I mean how many cheese outs have we seen in major SC2 games? Tons I have yet to see any 'creative special strategies' in SC2 where if you can time 2 abilities well you one shot the enemy army. Every argument that 'this is hard' are ridiculous. It's not hard for the best players in the world since they do this every day all the time. | ||
