That Doom is doing nothing, there is not even a particularly good doom target in this game... don't get that pick.

I just double checked, rubick was not banned, they could have Kuro rubick in a game with a lot of juicy spells to steal.

Also I disagree with the PL pick. there is ton of AoE against the illusions. they could have had the AM for faster farming and arguably better split push (at least earlier). Or they could have gone with something like luna for much more early impact. Or with pretty much anything else they feel comfortable... don't really see how PL was the best option for xboct...

The entire draft was just incredibly questionable. Batrider is not a Dendi power hero, they didn't have enough teamfight for NP to get into proper form, SD was a solid support but wasn't justified by an aggressive tri or enough power from LGD that defensive Disruptions were needed, and PL and Doom were just awful ideas.

I still give this to LGD. But a good fight for Navi is still possible;

LGD Gaming (Radiant)

+ Show Spoiler [Bans] +

00:00 to 05:00

- LGD: Xiao8 Beastmaster going offlane, DK mid, Nyx/Gyro Bottom and Chen Jungle
- Navi: Doom (Jungle), PL/SD (top), Bat (mid), Furion (offlane).

- Sylar on the Gyro getting a very good amount of LH's right now (20/4 @3mins)
- LGD pressuring Bot T1 early and they take it just before 5mins

- Yao get's lassoed towards Dire hill, first blood for Navi
- Funnik gets impaled at a late 6min rune pick up, Dendi fireflys in to save but the both of them end up dropping, Kuro on the Doom ends up falling aswell.
- Funnik TP's in and finds a weak Nyx with his illusions
- Dendi heads top to find Beastmaster, Puppey ends up falling to the tower though Beastmaster does die
- LGD pick up Mid T1
- Navi looking to take bottom T1, Funnik dies after a net from Troll creep. Quick response from LGD
- Score sits at 5:4, Xboct leading the net worth but LGD with the tower advantage

10:00 to 15:00

- LGD take the bottom T2 tower after that small fight
- LGD now take the top T1, Furion pressuring mid T1 but LGD use Glyph and TP in, now looking to take Navi's Mid T2
- Xiao's Beastmaster has a Medallion, not yet heading towards Roshan.
- Not much to say really
- Navi heading top but a few TP's from LGD and they back off

15:00 to 20:00

- LGD smoke up, looking to head towards Roshan, Dendi fireflying by Ancients reveals them out but they head in anyway
- Puppey falls after a Roar and a force staff (?) out of Roshan Pit
- Hvost dies after being spotted by Xiao8's gem while he walks towards secret shop
- Funn1k also gets taken out.
- Dendi lasso's Sylar but he gets sent back before any signifigant damage is done, Doom puts a Doom onto the Chen but a neutral creep intervenes and stuns Navi as they try to chase
- Navi being picked off all over the place.

20:00 to 25:00

- Navi have lost all T1's and T2's, LGD slowly assembling outside the mid T3.
- LGD begin to work on the tower, no glyph available, Puppey deny's the tower gold
- Sylar dies and loses the Aegis, but all a part of the master plan
- Funnik ends up taking the Top T3.
- Navi get a couple of kills with a follow up from Funnik's teleport from the T3, but so do LGD and LGD don't lose their gem.
- Too much chaos to report
- Xiao8 get's lassoed but after a roar and DDC coming in with DD both sides decide to break away

25:00 to 30:00

- Roshan up in 1min
- LGD smoke up with 20secs till RS is up, searching through Dire Jungle
- They find Kuro who blinks away but he is stunned by BST roar while TP'ing
- DDC pulled to the highground before Rosh, Sylar gets a kill on Funnik who buysback and heads to push towards the top Rax
- Navi finds DD but LGD get a quick kill on Kuro, as Funnik heads to the rax again LGD need to TP away from Roshan to defend
- They find Hvost right on the 30min mark, kuro to drop aswell

I can't possibly say. I think it's because they're taking the Drums "auras are good with illusions" thing to mean that your first big item should ever be anything but Diffusal on PL.

Auras are not good with illusions.

Endurance Aura and Yasha are exceptions.

PL illusions get absolutely nothing from Vladmir's Offering Aura (they will just provide the aura to nearby heroes).

Not to mention: Midas IAS doesn't apply to Illusions either.
