Said nobody ever.

Storm is one of the most broken late game heroes, it's well known.


No he isn't. He's not even like top 20 lategamer. He's simply stronger than all the heroes in this game, and Secret didn't draft a counter.

he's definitely top 20... though he's kind of a hot or cold lategamer, either he's super effective or he can't do anything


I disagree he can be effective (if he has no counter), but if I was to name stronger lategame heroes, I'd go:

Void, Tiny, Medusa, Specter, Clinkz, TB, Naga, Antimage, CK, Tide, WK, PL, Ember, Tinker, Sven, Lesh, Sniper, Troll...

And then there are many iffy ones (like Doom, OD, Magnus, PA, LC), so maybe in that Top 20 range.

i'd disagree with sniper, sven, tinker, wk, tide, clinkz, and void, especially in any game against storm

also i'd rather have a six slotted storm than any of your "iffy ones"

I am not sure what Viper is supposed to do in this draft, i mean can they get S4 and zai in playmaking heroes already? Thats where they are much better than the other teams. Pick 1 click heroes for then is just wasting the team potential.

Viper was supposed to dominate his lane, but apparently phoenix+BH can wreck Viper.

When you're new to dota and clearly aren't good please refrain yourself from making assumptions


You clearly don't know me. I'm just stating a generally accepted fact.

So.. The ability to instantly snipe anyone out of position, to evade most of the spells, to creepskip, to deal good magical and physical damage is not good lategame ?
Just .. stop.


Since when did FiwiFaki say Storm isn't good lategame?

Its in the quote. But he says it right after your post.

You only account for some things, storm provides an unparalleled mix of map control, damage and initiation late game, which none of them have.

USA USA USA?

rotk is the most american chinese player, probably


ROTK is just a great human being honestly, + Ehome has a lot of flashy players (CTY, Lanm) and Americans love that stuff


Simply because there is a lot of Chinese in the stadium.

I didn't bother to watch because I assumed that Secret was going to straight-up 2-0 these guys.

Speaks to how broken techies are tho, most fun to watch style of game gets shutdown by them completely.

I'm not saying storm is AWFUL. But someone called him super broken in lategame.

To which I responded, that there are quite a few heroes way better in lategame than storm.

I think i'm cursed, any team i cheer for at TI falls apart during the tournament
RIP Secret
From the Ghastly Eyrie I can see to the ends of the world, and from this vantage point I declare with utter certainty that this one is in the bag!

Azarkon is doing it to jinx all western teams for all we know

#therealsecret

seriously though Ehome played really well, secret need to step up their game (and draft) to avoid getting embarrased

Or because that was a masterful game and pretty fun to watch


What was so masterful about it? A stormpirit wining a game against a team without a reliable way to lock him up never seen that before.
