Alch came back into the meta single handedly because of armlet + radiance build and not because of raindrops. That build makes him about at least x10 harder to gank, as having a 6-8 min armlet build up to radiance and lvl 6 makes him incredibly hard to gank, and you almost need to bring at least 3 heroes to bring him down, unless you got an alch killing specialist hero like ursa. Not to mention armlet allows him to farm much faster as well...

in the past when alch simply went brown boots radiance, he dies easily to so much shit, Mid TA, mid OD, hell even mid invoker has much much stronger laning and solo kill potential against him, much more if you bring a support to come gank him.

I have to admit though, this tournament makes me glad this patch is finally over.

Yeah, for all the whining about Alch one has to understand that a fucking support Lina outfarmed carry Luna with Alchemist in the game devouring the jungle and lanes alike.

Not a random lina, jerax' lina,.

They beat Wings 2-1 and played decently most of the tournament......dunno they just got Alched twice in a row and didn't know how to deal with it. Lame way to go out.

Armlet suddenly giving 5 armor was just a really strong change while not changing the cost at all.

Alch just has a bit too much up time, I think increasing his ultimate cooldown by 5 or 10 seconds would go a long way.

It was obvious they didn't really respect them too much. I believed against wings. I believed against VP.

I will believe in my boys every day.

And people said that EG will lose to VP with the way they played against Wings as well.

Naturally I don't remember the names.

Yeah WG played fine. I don't see a problem with their first major going out like this; they'll learn and be better for it next time.

SEA as a region is still fine; Faceless sorta shit the bed but two great SEA teams in Execration and Mineski weren't even there, and both of them are better than MVP and might be better than Faceless given how bad faceless has been recently.

That does not work, because then it draws comparison to conclusion post match to assumption pre-match. That comparison simply does not work. Alternative would be having people claim EG would lose to VP if they played like they did against Wings. And nobody said that.

Probably because you have made it up on the spot.
