The International 5

Morphling wins. :D

<3 Morphling.

My thoughts on that game:

1. Fy-Rubick ^_^
2. 17%
3. Hao does he do it?

Virtus Pro has such a disgusting mid-late game line-up. Like wow.

Like an Empower'd Medusa is terrifying in the late game. Even more than regular Dusa

*once he gets significant buffs

I do see your point, but the difference is that Gyrocopter has better base stats and can deal out more damage in fights before big items. He also isn't squishy as F#$%. He can do large amounts of damage with spells without having to blow an ult with a 160/150/140 cooldown, and he can better control where the damage goes. He can take fights early, still scale well late, and has a farming mechanism. However, his farming mechanism is worse than Luna's, who if she has safe farm for about the first 35 minutes, can become an unstoppable steamroller. The thing is, carries in 6.84 need to be able to take fights early and often, yet still transition well into the late game. Luna simply can't fight before she has at least two items and a BKB. Gyro can fight all he wants wih his low CDs, then go take a stack that his supports have made, and keep fighting.

VP's lineup is so greedy.

magnus + medusa is a classic from their asus.Polar time, they used to run this so much. omnly it was played mid by mag i believe.

really dont like mag offlane, its just so greedy and almost always ends up with just a blink and struggling to get a force.

edit: SUDDENLY PURPLE CONEHEADHERO EVERYWHERE!!!!11!

Nice comeback from VP. I have to wonder about some of the secret drafting. Puppey is normally so strong...is the pressure getting to him? Arteezy is so greedy is he rubbing off the rest of the team? If you have a player that greedy and efficient on the team, what else can you run around him? No stacks for anyone else. They're really putting all their eggs in one basket, and the rest of the team are having to live on scraps.

I also have to question whether they're using S4 well, he's a great playmaker but they seem to keep picking heroes for Arteezy style farming mid.

Great Shaker play from VP too. That Slam/Fissure combo was awesome.

Yeah, puppey's itemization was... odd?
I mean, he didn't even managed to finish up Black King Bar because of the Crimson Guard. Why don't they build it on Dark Seer instead?
Anyway, Dazzle puppey this game, it's going to be good!

And yeah, I agree that it seems like a problem that is quite visible about Arteezy and S4. I just think that S4 cannot really show his best potential unless he's being put in mid playmaker, but they keep on putting Arteezy over there, it just seems like an overlap of two mid position...

P.S: WHOAAA THAT ZAI PLAY!

the draft from secret was just so greedy. enigma and shaman are both EXTREMELY greedy, so is dark seer, and luna is weak in lane. S4 still did great but RTZ just died way too many times.
