I think Kunkka is similar to Chen or Ench or Dazzle for captains in that you don't really need to focus much on anything in particular, yet have an impact when needed and can just make calls and watch the minimap yourself. He was cedeing all farm on lane to sand king anyway. Kunkka got maybe 2 creeps in lane in total, yet was brutally effective for the ganks.

does ember has enough time between the stun and the cast of impale ?

Is Naga going to be effective in fights though? She can do Naga things all day long, but every hero on Liquid has consistent AoE to clear out illusions in a fight.
Only Ember and Mirana have that ability.

It is 40 last hits Kunkka, what are you talking about?

While I'm really happy at how this is going, it is still a Naga game. Fuck Naga.

Haven't been playing Dota in ages, can anyone explain the reasoning behind all these Kunkkas going for Armlet?
|
Kuro is taking too much farm from Matu I think, it's been like 2 camps and a wave and a half when Matu was around

I mean, aghs SK kind of does that as well in a fight.

Another invite team down?
It's Invite vs Invite this match, so it was going to be the 4th out regardless.

for now yes but with higher level in carapace, no.

Will Newbee get a single kill this game?

Liquid playing like MVP!
And are doing it! For now.

Maybe if he would have stunned immediately after carapace. But he use the Vendetta hit first

True, but so far most invite teams have been a huge disappointment result-wise, except for MVP.

In lane he gave the last hits to SK. Kunkka was 3 last hits when Sand king was 28.
Anyways idk why people are freaking out about the tide points. It seems clear to me it's because Tide + Caustic = effective zoning of Lifestealer.

Liquid could still struggle to take highground.

Liquid pulls on the eHome-esq draft and it works. Maybe Newbee should have aggro tri and let Bat safelane instead of have 2 weak lanes.

Effective zoning of any hero in this game, actually.
