Think this was a bite level 1 game for CM. Just because it is single instead of dual lane and against a chen where it kills a creep.

Can't wait for Drow's aura to get butchered post TI patch, at least the levels 1,2, and maybe 3.

Think it would be better to butcher her laning. Lower her range/hp/dmg/armor or similar. Make sure she loses all mid and most sidelane matchups but still enable her team. Keeping her unique but not too strong.

Feels like 80% for EG at this point. Not over but hard. Teamfight of VP is stronger if they can get level 6 and force those.

i think buffing the hero but nerfing the overall team effect

even though it goes against the whole everyone op in their own way thing of dota

makes more sense to me for this particular hero

just a matter of opinion though

Not sure how VP's supposed to win the lategame unless they get a whole chain of pickoffs in the mid game.
Average means I'm better than half of you.

A few more than that:

Not big success against Drow though decent. Doesn't seem a direct counter.

Been more than expected storm this TI. Maybe due to the Drow picks so he gets that little extra pickoff power.

This hold for VP has been good. Single pickoffs with silencer ulti. Making sure they keep their triangle.

Stop putting Pasha on Mirana. He's clearly not comfortable on the hero.
