as for aba, well we only run him really if it's versus bane or if we want a really strong bottom lane like puck/aba or morph/aba. i can understand why aba isn't that great of a pick/ban all the time, but why do you say the same about clock? | ||

But yes they are for all the wrong reasons. as nitro said we only run loa vs bane, and in return really only ban him when we run bane. clock is a good all around hero and can be a bitch to play against, so he warrants a ban in some line ups. Hes a very good hero that can kill alot of lanes and give your outer lanes alot of versatility. On top of that he has good stat gain and a really strong tank once you get hood/aghs. | ||

explain this one to me. I didn't think he needed it and why not farm Pipe/heart/AC instead :/ | ||

I didn't think he needed it and why not farm Pipe/heart/AC instead :/ aghs reduces his ult timer significantly and allows him to hook to more targets. It gets him in and out of fights, and once late game hits he can hook twice in a single fight. It can prevent alot of people from getting away and in mid game skirmishes he can go from hero in mid to kill heros at bottom/top who are running through jungle/porting really quickly. Also it gives nice stats and is cheaper than heart for a better return early on in the game. After he gets it going for heart/shivas is fine, but you really want the low cd ult for ganking nonstop on clock to let him get lots of kills. | ||

Also I've got a problem with INT heroes that farm Shivas when they could easily make a Guinsoo :/ There's no such thing as too many disables some leagues bar too many guinsoo, but shivas is good on int hero for the armor as well due to most int heroes not having alot of armor. The attack speed slow/movement slow isnt horrible either. However most of the time i would prefer guinsoo. On clock i normally go like bottle boots hood aghs, maybe some bracers if i need it vs a certain line up. | ||

LoA the reasoning is obvious with the best pair of picks right now is PotM+Bane (like Puck+Naix before it and the Sven+Lina variants before that). But I see teams picking/banning LoA when he isn't needed or good, like CM when the line up doesn't fit, no reason to pick her. | ||
