it's not hysteria and youre straight lying if you aren't willing to conceed VP took a lot of stupid fights and spent their ults in really bad ways

I was more talking about the idea that if VP just sat back and waited to defend high ground they'd have done any better. Secret with that draft just takes every tower, takes rosh, denies all the farm on the map and breaks high ground with a 15k lead at 25 minutes against a Medusa with no items. VP had to get into fights if they wanted to get farm (ironically) because that was their only way of defending their map. And VP would never win a fight outside of their own high ground.

And even TA manta can't be called glass cannon because once again, manta is defensive item, especially on TA.


I don't think you understand lolfail9001.

Caster called it glass cannon, and I was laughing at him for saying that, because it's a tank item for TA.

Instead you should be laughing because Capitalist is better than almost anyone in this thread, myself included, mmr-wise.


I just think it was a super silly comment, and pointed it out.

And you made my comment very long and much more complicated than it needed to be.

I think the 'douche' aspect wasn't him saying that he expected to get as far as he did, but more that he refused to believe that redeye believed they could get far.

They totally did, but even then, they have to spend ults for any fight because all their useful spells are ults.

This is like the most non-statement thing. Of course they need to spend ults, but the way they did was fucking stupid. There's no reason for people to pretend that this was somehow inevitable, VP played stupidly and it was mostly on their fight selection and ult usage.

God feeding RTZ a double kill to RTZ when he was crushing mid lane and then getting caught endlessly was also pretty bad.

Way to misjudge what people are actually saying. It's not turtling, it's using what your line up is good at instead of doing things that your line up isn't designed for. They to try to burst heroes in the mid game when they have no damage then get destroyed cause they used all their spells. On the other hand if they didn't try to engage and Secret tried to engage, one song, global silence, and/or stone gaze then their initiation is broken.

The main difference between VP and EG/Secret is that when they have the strategic advantage especially a defensive one, they are patient enough to wait for their opponents to fall into their trap then punish. If VP never forced an engagement Secret has to go look for them cause they can just let Medusa get enough damage. Sitting Naga behind Medusa was pretty much auto disengage every time at least for 10-15 more minutes.

If VP wants do fight mid game then they should draft accordingly but that was poor execution of draft not a fundamental problem with the draft.
