My group decided that we don't care about losses anymore (most of them are busy lately) so we just queue up SD and RD along with CM for the faster match times. Here is how the first 3 games went so far. Game 1: Single Draft: We are absolutely shitting on them. The score before their Skele King leaves was like 14-2. Game 2: Captains Mode: We draft a very strong team comp. The only problem we had was an AA that decided autoattacking creeps to shove the lane was a good idea. When I asked him to stop the response I got was "it is all luck if i get a last hit since I do so little damage anyway" as he is just autoattacking away. We proceed to have a good game despite the fact that he couldn't land an ult to save his life (he said he was playing from Brazil. Surprisingly a BR that spoke some good english). We proceed to lose the game after about an hour as their morphling just got time to farm (see: AA shoving lanes). Overall in a 4v5 (he landed maybe 3 ults all game with spamming it) we had a pretty fun game. Game 3: Random Draft: Worst. Skeleton King. Ever. The enemy team took an ursa. Skele King never used his stun to help the team during a fight or when we were trying to kill ursa (I say trying because of shadow blade and a lack of dust or gem -_-). The ONLY time he used his stun was to try to get a kill on a Silencer who is IN THE BACK OF THEIR TEAM. He would just run all the way through their team to get himself killed. Had he landed a few stuns in the early game, we win by 25minutes. | ||

it's either that or 3-4 branches and a bunch of mana pots and bottle rush anyway | ||

un-randommed bottle first is okay on zeuz, generally a million mana pots/branches is better but it's not bad it's workable on a lot of other heroes as well (like dk or es or beastmaster etc) but generally other builds are better | ||

Math: by 1:30 there should be 3 creep waves dead (the 0:00, 0:30 and 1:00 ones) with the 1:30 ones are on the way. So you need 8 out of 12 creeps. maybe 1-2 fewer since you get close to 1g/second. | ||

like zeuz for example doesn't get that much stats so you're better off just stacking mana pots and branches, and bottle first works okay depending on the situation | ||

This way you are left with 250g and need only 350g for bottle (about 8-9 creeps). You can easily get them by 1:30 and have bottle delivered to you via courier, ready to bottle the 2 min rune. IT's risky, but way better compared to bottle first. Math: by 1:30 there should be 3 creep waves dead (the 0:00, 0:30 and 1:00 ones) with the 1:30 ones are on the way. So you need 8 out of 12 creeps. maybe 1-2 fewer since you get close to 1g/second. that 1g/seconds is quite a bit of gold by 1:30, ~90 but I think it might be closer to 100 or something ? | ||

Chen+a carry vs dual lane is almost always a nightmare unless the oppo played passively for whatever reason. you cant pull and they have vision. plus getting cour+ward (for hardlane at start and then no one in team getting any ward) really didnt help at all. | ||
