Do chinese teams not know how to play against techies? You actually have to draft heroes that are good against Techies. I don't know if he was last or 4th pick but like Broodmother or omniknight they are deadly if you have the wrong line up. omni does not even do shit against techies early on, albeit repel is legit against remotes.

Cty makes a mistake that gives Sumail a large advantage but he still > Sumail?

wroooooooooooooooooooooooong wisp + NP change the base game mechanics just as much except teams have 20 times more experience playing against them. playing against techies in 10 years will be much more developed and less gimicky.

I will insist to the grave that anyone winning with Razor wins in spite of him, not because of him

They stomped Secret with kYxY Lesh at SLXI, then picked it a few more times at Redbull.

I was shocked at how badly he was losing. CTY had near-perfect CS and Sumail had like half that in the first five minutes or so. The first blood managed to help get Sumail back into it, but I think a lot of that game had to do with Sumail doing so poorly in the lane.

Everybody's ignoring the bounty hunter being afk for the first 5 minutes of the game and letting the solo offlane lina and mid ember win their lanes. Even if he went bottom and tried to harass the pull or click the bloodseeker a few times he would have done more than he did.

Cty makes a mistake but he still > Sumail this is the best case of why Azarkon is necessary. Cty makes a mistake but still outplays Sumail consistently without those. That's just a sign of why you are considered what you are.
