SK hasn't changed at all except teams learn how to lane him and get him a good start.

Look what happened when Fnatic understand that and shut down SK totally in Liquid's game


This has been my point the entire time. The X hero's laning phase is way too OP atm, and then X hero uses his lead to wreck the mid game. If you don't shut that X hero down in lane, well good luck.


see you can use the exact same sentence for X hero.

The bottomline is, they can ban him to not allow the 'OPness' or pick him to use his 'OPness'.


LOL

I've said multiple times already that MVP should ban SK first phase.


But the goddamn hero wasnt even picked until 4th pick in game1 ffs

I just think the problem is more on MVP doesn't have a nice hero pools for each hero, Fnatic banned the shit out of them

Okay? Thanks for stating the obvious, he's OP because caustic finale is broken atm.


he's OP but not nearly as OP as SD/Mirana/ET


I dunno. Maybe, I wouldn't have said any of this a few days ago, but the more SK I see the more my opinion changes of the hero.

There's no reason not to max caustic. It's retardedly broken atm and is ripe for abusing, and the smart teams are doing that now. I guarantee SK is going to get the nerf bat the hardest next patch.


I mean the issue is that Fnatic really know how to play SK well and they've gotten a lot of games these last few days. Ohaiyo is really good on initiators.


So because Fnatic understands how to abuse SK the best, that makes him not OP.

OK, gotcha


a truly OP hero makes people who don't play that hero well still seem OP (case in point Old Chicken with Mirana).


Old Chicken is good at Mirana. Shitty case

If he's your idea of a good Mirana player, then I don't even wanna imagine what a bad one looks like to you

Now that you mention it i struggle to remember a player who has sincerely looked bad on potm this tournament.


How can you look bad on her with her current standard item build?

I'm trying really hard to think about something but it's not so hard to farm a 4K2 item on a hero with a good wave clearing spell, a neutral farming spell and 2 built in escape mechanism, yeah, I don't know what can be done outside of shitting the bed like a boss, ah I know, don't ban huskar and your line up is full magical damage!

No reason to ban SK when it's obvious Ohaiyo will be on Slardar.
