Picking heroes that you want while ignoring what the enemy is drafting. I doubt this is going to work well lmao.

Seems like the boys just wanna play dotes and it's not gonna work out lol

This meta is all about picking semi carries according to laning matchups. It's crazy how Fnatic chose that type of drafting approach.

Fnatic typically had good laning stages in groups right? This seems worrisome

Yes this draft also should give them good landing stage. Well Ursa can't win against necro/tiny but they can't give away too much advantage early on

we should be used to the variance by now.

i think the aui interview actually revealed a fundamentally flawed drafting philosophy

they dont care about their opponents picks as long as they get their strat...?

which means they arent looking out for the best picks that wins lanes, they're just looking for the best picks period in their book, and not even taking into account how hard their lanes lose

can't opposing teams exploit this by picking certain lane counters that ruin their overall gameplan?

Pretty much stabilises from the laning stage. I guess it's pretty even now.

Fnatic lineup is on a timer against Serenity's though
