Ver was right though.

The gold gain and rubberband mechanic is just so ridiculous.

When OG lost the first big teamfight in mid in Game 1, they had to fight so MUCH harder to win because of 1 mistake.
Same in Game 2. Newbee got a bit cocky and got team wipe and the game dragged out for another 30 mins.

Team that gain that lead should not get punished so hard.

But without the rubberband we could have 50 mins game that is already end at 10 min. With rubberband, it never really finishes. So really a double edge issue here.


I wouldn't mind it if lane dominators became relevant again.
That only caters to a certain playstyle, and I am sure you would grow bored of 18-20 min games, that were either won or lost at the 5 min mark.


I'm pretty bored of the current, predictable playstyle.

Yeah, you lose the dmg drain, but you get silence, playmaking ability, core veil and can instagib supports in 5v5 fights. It's bristle who is the problem in this type of drafts, Void+Phoenix counter DK+Naix alright.


Notail doesn't play either of those.

This is either going to work brilliantly or Newbee just threw the draft in the worst way possible.

is sun ray being changed to magic too much of a nerf?

It could easily be a buff to veil/ET interaction, since IIRC it does not pierce magic immunity either way.


Nah, it would destroy Phoenix. She's only usable because Sun Ray offers early potential which it wouldn't do nearly as well if it was magic damage. Phoenix can get Veil, but the other team could just get Pipe and it'd be more of a wash.

If you need to nerf Sun Ray you can just nerf the cooldown, nerf the base damage of it, or undo part of the damage buff it got (it used to be 4% at level 4, now it's 5%).

Every pure to magic damage "nerf" thus far was paired by increase in damage done to offset change.


Yeah but then you're making Phoenix way stronger vs heroes who can't alter their magic resist so yeah... probably not the best change and it ruins part of the uniqueness of Sun Ray.

I don't like OG's draft

feels like if they don't push hard and fast, Newbee gets some levels and items and then wins every team fight?
