LS is the new king of this meta , whats his win rate his major , looks really high, Loda played so much LS when he was out of the meta , now that its back of course they ignore it.... sigh

17 10 but he has been picked by the favorite more often than the underdog, Though the wins while being first pick is more surprising to me, I would not have thought pro teams would struggle that much but naix fits into any line up I guess. Bring back shadow demon please.


We've seen a lot of fascinating combo Naix-Bombs. VG.R's Slarder + LS probably being the most out of the meta, but damn did that ever make heroes explode. LS + Riki has been rolling over people in the mid-game a lot, as well.

Weirdly, it's probably useful to think of Naix as much as a ganker than a Position 1, in a lot of situations. It's a lot like how Spectre was being used. You can always find pick-offs in the mid-game, and the reality is that those pick-offs are stupidly valuable right now. With the way the game is and the reward you get. (You can accelerate supports in levels with them, which is probably their most valuable attribute.)

I think shutting down top tier offlaners : tide, beastmaster, doom and slardar in lane is maybe his biggest strength too, We've seen a few teams trying to go aggro on him but he still gets his farm, so aggro lane proof too.


Yup, really strong laner right now. And, if it somehow goes badly, you can Naix-Bomb your way back in.

So it's true, you still have to actually control your heroes after a getting a superior draft.

I'm not even sure how they lost that. Lifestealer literally the only one that can touch the DP, so yeah if you lifestealer blink-bomb her she might die... but just one fight where col gets the innitiation and you have an immortal DP not getting ravaged / dmg from lesh while just rekking everyone. While also having the option to just put BM ult on the single hero that can do dmg: the naix

I really don't know how you can lose that

just look at that highlight: Limp on 100% hp doing 1v3 vs Liquid and killing them lol

First, roar was their only stun, with troll warlord's net on doom (lol), liquid had 3 forcestaves, then DP did not have much HP with her build and when BKB was down she could not manfight lesh, so far froom immortal. It was not an outdraft. Besides beastmaster could not initiate, he had to hide because liquid used the infest ravage on him every single time, then what can col do? Doom one target, pop exorcism, use omnislash and pray they did crippling damage because liquid was free to do what they want.

yeah, when BKB is down. Thus me saying the only way to win for Liquid is to burst her down before she presses the button. If she gets it off she can easily 1v4 and heal herself up for the duration of BKB. And after that 2-3 of Liquid are dead and you can just push. That's how top rax went down: Liquid was ahead all the time but they screwed up a single innitiation and instantly lose teamfight into rax down

Sprout is not a lockdown in any way. Unless the player goes full tilt. And duel is not a lockdown. What you gonna duel a naix? He'll pwn you!

Required a blunder from liquid, so not working so well.
