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

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


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.

thats what luna's aghs its for it'sso fucking good, 2000 cast range, gives 600 radius flying vision if cast on the ground, what a fucking aghs

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.

I think it's reassuring that group B is dominating so far, and EG looked good against all the teams. I think their 1 EHOME loss was the most convincing that the other team just played better, so the next series will be spooky.

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

she gets kited/controlled more easier than gyro

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

I mean, luna has even better ability to turn 1v1/1v2 around than gyro can dream of. Also, Luna is better at winning games, gyro is better at bringing lost games back.

Yeah its pretty funny how everyone said that Group A was the group of death.

Its only true in the sense that Group A so far has been dying in the playoffs.

More like nurturing and caring for your child only to watch him grow up and fuck you in the arse.

sounds like standard feudal age bullshit or whatever that's called

Very ancient mythology tier with all the incest and patricide.

we just need the incest part all we get is particide

pretty sure luna does decent 1v1 and 1v2 past level 6 at least


gyro does better though .. like there's so many situation where gyro can just kill somebody in around a few seconds

Which is probably why she's less sought after than Gyro since this meta encourages lots of midgame fighting and Gyro can fight earlier than she can and is never better at 5v5 than him

I remember someone in our inhouses once got Weaver Aghs but didn't understand how to cast it properly on teammates or something so it was a failure.

Yeah I saw that game. I was actually expecting at least one or two pocket drafts at TI with an aghs weaver, but none of the teams seem interested.
