Malz is ok just fallen out of flavour, wouldn't put him against kassa or morg though since you'll never ever get an ult off against them if they're not completely retarded.

Which brings us back to the point that his ult has been made a bit more noob friendly.

Thats probably it im not the best player in the world for sure, but even when ur good, u still can get hit by skillshots / stuns / snares n such when ur trying to dodge. So not saying you couldnt do it before, but even IF you get hit, ur not as fcked anymore

Just played vs a olaf as malz. He was quite fed and killed 2 of my teammates 1v2 and survived with 10% health remaining. I walk up to him and ult him, he pops his own ult and killed me in a blink. :/

Not to mention, depending on who you are against and who the jungler is, you can just get doublekills because olaf is stronk.

It's really easy to pre-ult a malz ult though so doesn't matter that much:p, unless you flash out of a brush and insta ult.

Well yes but then the ult still does its damage. Now it removed the ult entirely and I just dumbly stood there as he killed me :p

She does fine against sion and kass if you know what you're doing imo... For sion you just play safe and pop his shield whenever he tries to harass. Against Kass you need to try to get an early advantage with your range advantage before his Q harass becomes too strong.

You can't pop Sion's shield without blowing both your spells (which means he attritions your mana instead of your health), and you still have no good way of dealing with his ability to just blow up the creeps and leave, since your wave-clearing ability is much poorer than his.

Go 21 offense on Annie, blow Sion's shield ASAP with QW, autoattack him down.
Has worked pretty damn well for me so far. Except for that one time where somehow my QW+auto didn't blow his shield. I still don't understand that.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

Personally, I like the 2-phased ban system that exists in DotA competitive play--after each team has made 3 picks, there's a second banning phase where each team bans an additional 2 heroes. This allows for you to make strategic bans directed at the type of team-comp your opponent appears to be going for with their initial 3 picks, and makes banning on the whole more interesting, IMO.

That sounds interesting. Since I'm lazy: Could you describe the ban/pick process in more detail? How many champions are banned/picked in what order?

A ban #1
B ban #1
A ban #2
B ban #2
A pick #1
B pick #1 & #2
A pick #2 & #3
B pick #3
A ban #3
B ban #3
...

Like that? How many bans are there overall?

Each team gets 5 bans and 5 picks. First each team bans 3 heroes, then they pick 1-2-2-1 then ban another 2 then pick 1-2-1.

Personally I'd enjoy more bans in ranked solo queue just so people would be forced to experiment more however I can see the downside of people's favourite and/or fotm champs always being permabanned

you would see some very strange games. It would be a cool way to make people try out unused champs.

Wouldn't this be a problem eventually if the teams pick their champions like they do now. The 2nd ban phase they could screw over a big part of champions viable for support, etc.

I think it would just be better to have more bans at the beginning and maybe 1 or 2 bans in the middle of picking order.
