A bit confusing how this WK being afk in the woods works so consistently. Won't be long now that he comes out and wins Infamous the game


It's how Infamous drafts around having the WK, and then their confidence to play recklessly because their WK is still #1. It's a combination of Solid Strategy and Better Mentality when playing this way.

So it's really more about the Fab Four instead of the WK.

And phase boots allow slark to chase down people without needing leash as much

For a team like Infamous, it was night & day clear they were going to first phase the WK. They need the comfort to play on the main stage. Aui & crew played the Dota and didn't play TI.

They did draft to somewhat counter the WK. If they can't win a team like infamous when they know what's coming, doubt they can go deeper against better teams anyway.

Also, the pos 4 Invoker was bad during the group stage. It doesn't suddenly become that useful in an elimination match.

Pos 4 invoker kinda carried Newbee sometimes.

Seems like it was just them thinking the EMP would be nice against WK.

Though first phasing it isn't so great for Newbee because they only play it on MSS, unlike OG for example who can move it between Topson and Jerax

Neither team is going past the next round.

It would be so fucking amazing if Secret choke hard in next series and we get Mineski vs Infamous for top 6.

QW Invoker works best against teams that want to group up at 10-20 min mark. Main goal is to stall the enemy team while your team hit a later game timing. Guess it doesn't work when the enemy just wants to run at you no matter how few heroes they have.

Still thinks WK is a trash hero compared to alch when both works the same way.
