But it was reasonably clear from recent quals they were best Chinese team coming into tourney. It’s not completely out of nowhere. (Tbh Mineski in finals is more out of nowhere I think.) | ||

But according to dotabuff-guides (which is a small sample size) it's like 80:20 corrution to cleave in high mmr and almost 100% of the cleaves where on bfury-builds. I mean the whole cleave thing does feel weird on PA, for me. It has been years of convincing myself and others that "you don't make bfury on PA, because she's not a farming hero, she's a killing hero that will fade into late game because her passive does get countered with items". She's a early / midgame hero that win games by killing the ennemies, not out-carrying them in the ultra-late game. The cleave talent seemed like a nice bonus, like, you know, here, have a bit of cleave so you can kill some creeps on downtimes. But it should stay at that level imo, just a nice bonus, an aside thing. At any rate, now that bfury is getting picked more and more on any hero really, I would especially NOT take the cleave talent but get corruption instead, to sort of connect back to her above described purpose. But that's just my 3.9k logic, so... for what it's worth... | ||

Though a poor Leshrac & Underlord could be a big issue for LGD. | ||

The game is so different than 1 or 2 years ago. Consider that this PA cant be a farming hero idea stems from the time where magic damage carries basically didnt even exist. But im also a 4k shitter so who knows. | ||

Actually that was the problem this whole tourney, I am fine if they are biased towards their own teams, but when two non-chinese teams fought there was barely any happy no matter how great the play was. I mean Chinese aren't hyped even when LGD get the kills, I don't know, probably one of the worst tournaments that I've seen when it comes to crowd hype. | ||

Now her spells both pierce BKB and SE got a bunch of nerfs, so imo she is a pretty decent lategame hero. But I have roughly at the same MMR, so yeah^^ | ||

Man nothing to feel about it, you simply put his abilities on the paper and compare them to other position 3 heroes and it is clear as day. | ||
