This game nicely highlights the big point with lategame dota though: you need refreshers to have ults up after buyback, not for double ults in lategame. | ||

It's shitty to see so much buildup, so many small advantages earned over 60 mins, and then ultimately everything is determined by one big fight, which can be determined by one big initiation or one mistake idk it tends to be like a series of fights that determines lategame, and is more about strategy involving buybacks then anything. Kinda disagree with your assessment. | ||

Its always been like this man, except when buyback didnt have cooldown, but that was ages ago. The gold swings in late game arent important as the casters paint them to be.

I get that late game is a tense battle with every move hanging by a thread, but most of the games end far too anti-climactically to really enjoy them. It's strange to see teams that should be ahead terrified to push high ground because once they slip up a team fight the advantage swings heavily on the other side. There's comebacks, and there's forcing a comeback through game mechanics. it was like that before comeback mechanics. I dislike how this unsubstantiated narrative has become a dominant meme. | ||
