Yeah, col definitely wants it.

Hopefully it happens, because the alternatives are... troubling.

But then we get game 3.

i don't get the point of picking slardar+venge with gyro+ember
slardar+venge want to focus people down and deal with one person at a time
gyro+ember just want to kill everything at once
also ember can get out of trouble just fine on his own, and if he can't then swap probably won't save him anyway
unless i'm missing something?
Heaven's Halberd is the most criminally underbought item in Dota. Together we can stop this.

Slardar has stun.

Venge has save.

Ember/gyro like saving and stuns.

And they like aoe -armor and aoe +damage.

Pick is just fine.

Also, if you stun ember, swap will save him, and he won't escape alone so you're missing everything.

are you implying you should go all in on aoe OR single target?

because my impression of a good draft is a balance of both

having single target spells strengthens laning phase and smaller skirmishes but you need massive aoe for teamfights

both happen in most games...

just sort of thinking to myself here with a couple of drinks but like i remember NA pro's used to complain about not having a lot of NA supports or something aside from PPD, Fluff, Wayto, whatever but i'm like looking at NA carry's and you have rtz than next up the list is TC and Jeyo?

How is this possible? I went shopping at the grocery store for an hour and a half and Archon vs Complexity haven't even finished their second game? Did Medusa become Perfect Medusa? Did Dark Seer and Tiny learn how to do the fusion dance?

Game was won when Medusa was dead.

I am not even joking, game was actually won by Archon when their dusa was in tavern without buyback.

i don't even really know how to summarize that first game to you aside from having an official valve admin sanction a 3-5 minute bathroom break because it was taking so long.

Thanks for the hearty laugh. I hope NoobfromUA does a highlight video because I can't stomach watching what led up to that scenario.

there's nothing even spectacular about the game or a single clowny moment. it was just both teams being afraid of losing.

now that I think about it, game winning play was dusa die backing to bait col into pushing. If she saved the BB they would just back too afraid of it like they did that one time she didn't have it (and that was at 80 mins IIRC)

Dusa did not have buyback back then because she HAD (or so Jeyo thought) to buyback to defend, not because she had choice.

I was under the impression that she was short on gold and not on cooldown, might be wrong though

Being short on gold when you don't have the CD really isn't a misplay.

Although Jeyo's item choices and selling was baffling scientists.
