Both Na'Vi and iG trying to make split pushing PL work tells me they think they need this for their ban / pick in the current meta. I imagine Alliance is watching wistfully.

From the sample size of the 3 or 4 games I've seen it, yes, it is worse than useless.

Epic games always feel longer, and games feel much longer when you are casting. You'd understand if you were in my shoes!

Pro players know that Midas IAS and Vlads benefits are not transferred to Illusions, right?

The logic of Vlad's is that it's supposed to make you farm faster, split push harder, be able to do Ancients earlier, and possibly solo Rosh. The problem with it on PL is that a lot of his farming speed and split-pushing power is from his illusions, and none of the Vlad's auras or stats actually benefit Illusions and likewise as a very illusion-centric hero, his Roshing ability isn't that good to begin with.

Huh it's not retarded. It's just consistent logic with the whole format. This format is inconsistent so if anything it's more "retarded" even if people view it as better.
