Aside from the mindgames of picking Gyro and your opponents not knowing whether that is your carry, a trilane support, or mid, he has a good set of skills that help gank in the early/mid game with minimal items, and can transition into a strong late-game. I think the problem that game was definitely the PA pick (wtfz?) and letting XBOCT free-farm on Phantom Lancer, which is a big no-no. That hero needs to be shut down early and fast, but their draft didn't really let them do that because if they sent 2 or even 3 heroes down there to gank him, they would get counter-initiated by Dendi/Puppey. NTH is pretty good at running unconventional supports, and it lends strength to their draft because teams don't know if that Gyro or Sven is in a farming role or not until they see the rest of the picks. It works, but you do have to structure your draft around it and picking a wonky carry like PA against Na'Vi is probably not the smartest decision. To be honest, it didn't matter at all what hero Loda was playing. As long as it was a melee rightclick carry and he went for midas, he is useless in the relevant portion of this game. That means that Na'Vi can comfortably play 4v5, because one of nth's heroes barely contributes anything. This allows xboct to farm some midgme cost effective items and just end the game. If you look at the game, the wisp even didn't do much, he used his ultimate twice. | ||

For being such an experienced player he really doesn't show it in his play, as someone who was a Loda fan back in the day it's pretty hard to be now. He seems too stubborn and unreliable. | ||

I'm with you man. He used to be the most feared and versatile carry player in Europe. Now his play is just very stale and reeks of reckless, sometimes even stupid moves. Its really sad T__T | ||

Its really sad T__T in his defense, didn't he say he's gonna need some time to get used to playing in a #1 position again since he's been playing as #3 for so long? Atleast i remember hearing that during a dreamhack interview.. sure it's been a few months but he might get back to form | ||
