why are teams even picking sf anymore


The real question is... why are teams picking luna again.

It's like a weaker PL that can join teamfights earlier, but loses to Gyro in that aspect.

Luna is better gyro.

i find gyro more flexible than luna

Real talk tho, Luna is much better at manfighting and killing base than gyro. In fact, i find her better at farming as well.

she's as good or better at everything but 5v5 teamfights

True, especially against illusions. In fact, picking her into illusions is bad, unless you are playing against pubstack called implosion gaming.

she's as good or better at everything but 5v5 teamfights

she suffers in smaller skirmishes that are near creeps (neutral and lane creeps too) but its pretty easy to play around that

but it makes her worse at tower defense, that's one issue

less capable of aggro plays in the early stages, faster ramping up, much worse late game

she gets kited/controlled more easier than gyro

also gyro has retarded bullshit to turn a 1v1 or 1v2 around with rocket barrage

people think glaives makes her good at 5v5 but their strength really comes from bouncing back and hitting targets multiple times

she's not close to as good at fighting before she gets items

rocket barrage and calldown are just so much better than lucent beam and eclipse

Being able to place Calldown is pretty huge though (vs Luna's PBAOE). It gives it way more utility as a zoning spell even if you don't expect as much dmg from it.

Hard to tell. EG looked pretty damn good last year as well.

Then they suddenly dropped 2 series into third place... EG has also not played a Chinese team in the playoffs so far. EG is actually the Western killer this year rofl.
