that's a completely hypothetical scenario ~
also believe it or not, Artosis is an awesome caster - but it's not unheard of that he is wrong once or twice about his predictions ^_^

Were you afk during the beginning of the game on Cloud Kingdom? You do realize Grubby went for an Immortal Sentry all in? Wasn't an all-in. he went for colossi tech long before he was pushed back. The entire idea being able to TP is that you don't need to make it an all-in, since you can escape. No, he went for Colossus after he got pushed back. He actually walled of his natural when moving out and put down a bunch of cannons. He went for an all in. Only it's no longer all in, because if you botch the attack and get your army trapped, you can safely recall home.
lol try to invalidate the wins of players however you want, its not going to change anything.

I kind of feel TvT isn't as good as before, but I haven't seen enough to say for sure.

Watching two armies both time warped is hilarious, It's like someone put the game on slowest mode.

lol Apollo da man

Hahah. I am willing to bet that Apollo practiced that joke before doing this on stream.

Grubby playing really well. Let's see if he can pull off a 6-0.

I don't understand what sort of counter-play is involved with Time-Warp? It seems like you basically just accept that it is going down if you commit and it goes down and yeah.

Sounds a lot like some other spells that are in this game... you can pre-spread and try to bait a missed one, but that's about it.

reducing micro capability of the opponent I would say, a very nice combo with ff/storm is possible as well so that could be problematic 
//edit: and I agree with the guy above me of course.

Hmm... I expected there would be a reason they kept the spell in the game after getting rid of it on the Oracle. But I haven't seen any interesting uses of it or interesting counter-play against it.
Oh well, I didn't mean to derail the thread! Go DeMuslim!

I also think pros will find better uses for it, like saving one time warp for after the fight when your opponent or you want to retreat for example. Depends on the matchup of course. But throwing both down in an immortal/archon vs immortal/archon fight doesn't seem to do much.

Does timewarp actually decreas attack speed or only movement speed?

It does decrease attack speed.

Only movement speed. A shame, as it would be cool if projectiles slowed down in the TimeWarp bubble.
