So far, nothing has worked because the Carry Io timing hits like a freight train.

IO just goes from worthless to this ridiculous core by the time it picks up aghs and then goes crazy from there

To make it more cancerous, OG has it with a Core Bristle. Topson + Ana might be able to 2v5 this Newbee lineup after 30 minutes.

If they reach that timing. Newbee seems to have all the tools they need to rekt through IO+BB

In one of the previous IO games, OG didnt get a single bounty rune (only 1 at the 00:00 mark, literally) until the 20th minute. And still rolled the other team in the midgame

that's also true

seems they care more about Ana's timing than the overall networth of the team

Tons of space created for ana so far. He's been afk farming in the jungle for 5 minutes or so.

NiP was up 9k at 24 minutes, and the Io timing hits that hard to turn the match instantly.

Io/Bristle is still viable with support Io. With the Io Aghs, and especially once the Heart comes out, I'm really not joking that Ana & Topson can probably 2v5 Newbee.

I don't see how Bristle dies should this game make it to late game
