Yeah, draft was not an issue at all. Series of feeds, EE standing in front of Tier 3's too much, and too many feeds.


Except the Mirana, because she did absolutely nothing.

some drafts are easier to execute than others and weaver is almost alwyas more diffcult to execute than ember and morph...

Secret played so sloppy there. They were in a commanding position... then EE, W33, Puppey all got caught one at a time into free rosh.

That was such bad play by Secret, wow.

Puppey got like 1 arrow all game, and Envy and Misery played so poorly, sigh.

Puppey please draft, and stop with this play. Hate being a fan in games where I wouldn't make certain mistakes that you guys did.

SB and mirana. 2 single target stunners. Shit in teamfight. Good in small scale fights around the map.

Pick draft that has no fucking creep clear to split push safely.

How the fuck is this draft good. Zero synergy at all.

Picking support PotM feels like it's usually a death sentence. I get the idea was to use arrow to instantly kill Enchantress's creeps, but the hero doesn't fucking do anything.

With astral at 4 seconds every level it's also basically the old SD combo. They got a couple of kills at the start with that and had a nice lead. Then went clown 9 mode.

good drafts involve a good mix of scaling aoe dps and single target dps

secret's teamfight didnt scale well at all

And this observer is not good either. Not once did they show the gold/experience graphs, and in the first 15 minutes of the game, he had the current gold tab open?

I think it's Rob, one of the BTS production guys. Can they just get a dedicated observer already?

And honestly even Envy fans can't defend how atrocious his mistakes were this game.

mm, if you're trying to utilise the Astral into arrow combo, OD needs to get force staff earlier rather than go atos into blink.
Think the itemization lost them a lot of their early game potential. Still think Newbee had the better drafting game plan with Enchantress, VS and Bat.

Newbee has no way to engage on Secret unless they are miles ahead. It's easy to talk about how shit Secret draft is after they fall 20k gold behind. Newbee played extremely well, but they did not win because of drafting. Fng is saying the same on Russian stream.

I mean, until the second free Roshan Newbee couldn't fight Secret at all, and with Weaver being ahead of Gyro in networth (which he would have been without dying for free over and over), it'd stay that way.

Feels that Puppey isn't even trying. Wonder whether there is conflict within the team. There must be.

weaver can split push extremely well, EE has just been playing senselessly

morph and ember still do it better though

one button and you're gone far away


I agree, both would have been better picks. Like I said earlier I didn't really like the Weaver pick. I like the Morph idea though, that could have worked well.

I only saw the last 5 minutes or so, anyone care to give a small summary? From what I read here it seems game was going alright for Secret and Newbee found EE twice and took 2 free roshes?

I don't feel Secret would have had half the draw it has if it weren't for EE.
