usually 5 supports seem to be captains, with s4, bone7 and swindlemelonzz as the exceptions i can think of

Xiao8 3/4 (technically starts the game as 4, but LGD's playstyle develops 3/4 equivalently while MMY is 5), Rotk 3

Sweet. Now we can see if VG is ready for naga. Traditionally, they suck against it.

If it's carry Naga, she won't be a factor whatsoever.

lol Lina doesn't delete BKB, she just pierces it with her ult. Which doesn't kill you by itself if you are a carry who hasn't been throwing his life away. Go run up on a Lina with BKB see how quick she backs.

No, it's quite rare.


EE is basically the only guy who does it. S4 if you want to count mids too.

if interviews are right ee isn't capt until late game

burning is also capt late game, think faith calls the early game (?)

should be self explanatory why captaining switches later in the game

No, but that's not really the issue here.

The issue is that iG's coordination as a team utterly collapses when they're under pressure, and there's no strong personality like Xiao8 or Rotk to re-balance the team in those situations. It doesn't have to be the carry, but none of the other 4 players do it.

wasnt burning the captain of the old dk at some point? i mean back in DotA. or was it longdd? cant remember rotk being a leader at that point

The thing is that when you can take out half of their carries life during BKB, it kind of makes them want to run. Of course if it's their carry running at Lina 1v1, she will run.

BKB last game would be fine on QO as clock and rubick with lina made his escape impossible.

After seeing kpii's previous Naga performances I don't like this.

I believe old DK used to be rOtk calling shots in early/mid game and burning calls in late game.

LongDD was the captain of the old DK, until he got kicked. That's also the point where DK's playstyle stagnated into cookie-cutter 4-protects-1s.

If MVP don't take a large advantage in the early game, VG's late game might be too strong.
