Yeah. Though credit to Wings. Complexity should have won game 2, but Wings managed to find just enough to stay in the game until the Alch made Raid-Boss mode.

Col's Earth Spirit was the worst I've seen in pro games recently.

On Secret vs Empire g1, pretty much no one is winning with 2 defensive Supports this patch. And they picked Wisp + Dazzle. That's a bit too much anti-Meta to normally work, even for players as good as Secret has.

i stand corrected in that envy's naga would disappoint, but i definitely didn't feel the naga pressure there due to a lot of different factors. just.. a farming moneybag with a reset button. welp, spectre is like that too with an aegis or a buyback.
starting off with a loss! but it's all good, time to take off the jackets and come to play.

Batrider + LD were the bans the first two games. Switched LD for Bounty in Game 3. Let the Invoker + LD + Lion combo happen. Swindlezz's drafting has gotten a lot better, but he made two critical mistakes in the last game. When you don't win a game you should (game 2), that can happen in game 3.

Yeah 6.85 was when the double defensive supports worked, we've seen already when teams go for that nowadays it's so hard to do anything.

Yeah grave plus relocate in theory is very good when you are sitting with a Naga and OD though, but indeed did not work out at all.

Spectre's haunt + 1 initiator could easily pick off heroes already and they had 4 initiators lol. Letting Empire control the pace of the game is not a good idea.
I'm guessing he thought that with wisp for positioning and wisp+dazzle for the heals he didn't need it, and also wanted to bait the spells onto himself. No hex makes it even harder for Universe tho, lol
