I am not sure how bad their lategame is. OD murders illusions. So does drow with ahgs maelstrom. Additionally omni is really good in lategame and wl bonds are never bad.

There's no way they can stop this Naga, and going Midas is most definitely not the way. You'll have a 6 slotted Naga at your doors at 35 minutes... What will a Midas do for you by that point.

More than any 2k gold item.

They don't have a choice but to go midas. It's precisely the item.

I don't think they'll win but it's the only way for them to get money off of the tiny amount of the map they own

They're choosing the slow death and no chance of winning. You have to go for pushing... You can get a 4k item faster than getting a Midas followed by a 4k item. A game like this, it's just not possible to take it late if you let Naga farm the whole map.

they have no easy wave push nor depush. DC can just control the lanes ad infinitum with naga and slowly siege the base while increasing their lead and getting all roshans. NP will have to initiate at some point but they don't have any reliable catch nor control. The only NP favoured situation is when legion jumps in and the whole DC team is diving with him

All-in pushing does not work against Naga with advantage.

Without map control, they'll never have enough gold.

Before she has her 2nd big item (when she only have BoTs and Radiance), you have time. Now it's too late to push.

NP heroes are okay against DC, but when you have half the NW and 3-5 less levels, it doesn't matter.

NP's draft only existed if they won the lanes. If you lose the lanes that badly you might as well call gg at 10 minutes

That was really impressive. So patient, perfect execution when it was needed and a dominant laning stage. Great to see them doing so well

NP could have easily won 2 out of 3 lanes. But they decided to be ambitious and go for the cheap win in an attempt to win all 3 lanes.

But drow and OD can right click one creep after the other! One step at a time, true anime story line imo.

if you let a scrub babble on, either they'll eventually realize how dumb they are and learn or they won't and everyone will ignore them. Either one works fine here.
