Thorn is annoying but I much hate Glutton more.

Edit:
Like, I can kill Thorn as Alchemist alright, but Glutton oh god, even with an HP advantage to start the 1v1 I'll usually lose, it's an extremely demoralizing situation to be in. Psychopomp's the only other character in the game where in a 1v1 situ I'll literally just go "oh fuck my life" and expect to lose right now, ignoring player skill.

Guardian's pretty easily too, although good ones are annoying (cuz they start ulting really fast due to really fast energy charging).

Ah, had some good times today dropping people with Engineer. Since my ladder friends weren't online I was just playing customs and people seem to get confused when you emp them right before they start landing their planned hits, leaving them open for many easy shots.

GGs Maero, sorry I suck at everything except healers, and am horribly inconsistent (ie, I miss some critical shots) with Alch

Do you guys have any good strats in 3v3?
My team plays Herald, Guardian and Engineer but its seems we lack synergy. My thinking is that all team members should combine ultimates to take one hero out.
So really maybe, Herald, Glutton Guardian would be better?
Anyway please state some good 3v3 teams and explain why they work.

My team runs Pomp/Seeker/X at the moment, with that X being anything from Vanguard(FML) Ravener Spearmaster Harbinger whatever. Primarily a lot hinges on the Seeker because we've found he's one of the most dominating range vs range heroes in the game (even moreso than Gunner) so we tend to just grind the down, force them to initiate onto us (which rarely works well against Pomp/Alch) and then cut them apart.

Edit:
Oh yeah, Inhibitor fucks us up pretty badly too. Ugh. I hate that hero. I feel so helpless.

Dunno man. I play alchemist a lot but I don't get why is Glutton giving you hard time. He needs madness to give him speed boost. Basically your Q dispells it and gives you some breathing space, R gives him slow (and debuff) and you can kite him with ease. Especially since you have shield which gives you speed bonus and sleep (which isn't interupted by your dots and keeps distance). Alchemist is like the 1v1 class. I'm loving alchemist. Dispells are so much fun.

But you can't kill him, and your HP is the one that goes down as he keeps ult popping you.
