It's gotten significantly more stupid since WC3 DotA was abandoned, since it had a ton of limitations that Dota 2 doesn't. He has the freedom to do whatever he wants now.

Out of those all only Jugg would be remotely fine against this strat. The only reason Col is doing fine is because with all the space Wings had they could only farm an Ursa and an Invoker (and they banked hard on only the invoker), with an even remotely good late game carry Wings would be winning. I mean they might have still won with a useless Ursa. Implying Wings had that space with late game carry instead of Ursa.
What did Ursa do for the first 25 minutes? He didn't pressure the Naix who got free farm, he got 2 kills, 4 assists and died 2 times while never taking Roach. He farmed a blink he couldn't use and then a BKB.
Seriously, I don't understand the argument, it's not like we haven't seen this strat fall flat on his ass all the time, most of them because you end up with an underfarmed Naix against a good late game carry.

They were only able to win that because they could take fights with the other four heroes. The strategy is well thought out. It wasn't just "lelz Naix."

one thing i love about ESL
TIMERS idc if it's minutes off and they run ads around it, it's just a basic indicator of what to expect.

well pre TI3 we had an armlet bear thing and ti3 spotlighted chen pudge hooks
Most of that is just due to new engine bug outs.
The new stupidity is all "creativity"

I can't wait for sniper's ulti which would turn the game into an FPS from his point of view.

The fun part is: i did not see this strat fall ever since folks started getting radiance with it, mainly because i have only seen this being executed by EG most recently and i rightfully ignore NA doto. And in case of Spectre/AM, instead of dodging the Ursa tri-lane, coL just goes for it. Not to mention that neither Spectre, Jugg or AM can do anything to ancient.
