His endgame isnt horrible as long as he has chemical rage up. I find him kind of synonymous to bear late game (not super lategame) where your carrying is limited by one spell essentially, since Alchs ulti just gives him stupid IAS which is one of the most important DPS components lategame when crits/mkb/bashes come out.

6 item Alchemist is actually not all that strong compared to other carries, even with ultimate. The main thing is that while he has fast BAT, his stat gain is abysmally low. He's strong at level 16, but then tapers off because by level 25, he's like 2 Ultimate Orbs behind any other carry because 1.8 Str gain + 1.2 Agi gain per level is really bad compared to other carries. Especially PL at 4 Agi gain.

LGD needed to win the game on either Sylar's BKB or Sylar's AC. Beyond that was just a matter of Alliance not throwing the game.

Empower and 1.0 (?) BAT with double RP never relies on a "throw".
Did you ever say Yes to a single joy?

He's actually pretty good. He used to be pretty bad but he has gotten a lot better (at least concerning game knowledge). His personality is kind of polarizing but that is a preferential thing to begin with

He's not bad if you just want to get hype tbh. He was perfect for the allstar match last night for example.

His biggest problem is his repetition of the most random sentences, and a need to spend 10 seconds calling out a player's name when he expects something to happen.
Average means I'm better than half of you.

If you don't like superfed megacarries 1v5ing teams when fed you can always go watch LoL or something... This is how DotA works. There's multiple ways to play DotA, lame and exciting. Most other games aren't as varied, I think that that's some of DotAs beauty...


But it wasn't a superfed megacarry 1v5ing a team? It was illusion vs creep PvE dota for the last 30 mins...I don't mind heroes being imba, I mind if they're boring to watch.

Well LoL has no illusions either o_O DotA has variance as I said, there's illusion vs creep PvE dota as well and it's a legit strategy in these types of games.

Maybe you should try arena mode Smite?


Dota has enough variance already without the boring stuff. You said it yourself, DOTA has more variance than most other games, so why would weeding out the most boring strat of them all, which drags games out for so long and eliminates direct Player vs Player interactions be a bad thing? This is why people hated 4p1 dota a few years back, and when the meta shifted the game became a lot more interesting to watch.

Maybe you should watch WoW raids?

Or you can just ban out PL. Pushing strats are valid and part of the game. People need to deal with it.

PL's usually 3rd or 4th pick, so to ban him they'd have to let Batrider/Lifestealer/Wisp/Dark Seer/OD through. It's a lose/lose situation.

They could if LGD just trickled in one by one.
