Nuker mids doesn't give a shit about armor. And if alchemist is smart, he will go hood first just like EE. But raindrops buy enough time. Supports buying raindrops means nuker mid tempo control also get less effective, not just the mid matchup.

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.

XCTN and Mineski aren't great SEA teams lmao

Who said that?

A lot of people thought wings would beat EG because EG lost twice to coL

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.

I listed like 7 or 8 reasons, and that was the smallest of them all.

But anyway, if you have such issue with what I say, why even aggressively reply to almost everything I say?

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.


Raindrops were a big indirect buff to Alchemist. They almost singlehandedly phased out spellcasters with high burst damage from the midlane. Once he gets the new and improved Armlet, the current standard mids have issues with killing him too.
