"When game is going full ******, you can only go with it. If you start going against it, if you start going half ******, you´re ****ing done for. When Aloha decides to go middle rubick you let him, and you start buying orb of venom on invoker. That's how dota works" -n0tail
Why would you take a Drow if you have Luna and Medusa?
I'd rather switch the Medusa to the hardlane with Tide, and have a mid ganker like Night Stalker or Nyx Assassin, removing Drow. ;P
The problem is you have too many carries, you only need one of those if you choose Luna or Medusa as a carry, and a semi-carry mid (Like Nightstalker or Slark) if you're gonna choose Drow in a lane. I also don't see why you have a Tide and Vengeful, you already have an initiator choose one.
if drow in the jungle thide is a solo lane and vengfull spirit is not the best initator i think
Drow doesn't jungle from level one, and if she does, its pure stacking and pulling and that's very slow for what her progression rate needs to be. If you're not using Venge as an initiator then there is no need to have her, you're better off with someone more whose more effective in a teamfight with Tidehunter, like CM she'll provide your mana hungry lane with mana, as well as two disables and a nuke.
Too much farm reliant heroes that relies on their ultimate to win any battle. Quas-Wex Invoker, Nyx, Spirit Breaker, Slardar and similar heroes will destory each and every one of them.
In terms of laning, it's not TOO bad. If luna and vs are aggressive, they can score some early kills, same with drow and tide at bot (as long as they aren't tri-laning). They have plenty of slows and stuns. The only thing out of place is medusa. I've sorted them in a chinese farm priority list:
5- vs (hard support)
4- tide (core item suport)
3- luna (utility, ganker)
2- drow (semi-carry, farms heroes not creeps)
1 -medusa (hard carry)
Also you'll have 3 heroes that are dependent on farm, so if being aggressive and roaming doesn't work out, you'll be put in a massive disadvantage.
A better lane would be:
Top: vs drow/luna
Mid: drow/luna
Bot: Medusa tide
This way mid can gank lanes at level 6 if needed, and bot can free farm with tide babysitting. If bot or top is fine, tide and vs can roam. vs and tide are very versatile so they can rotate if needed.
Edit: Also, jungle drow at level will ruin your lane setup. You'll have medusa and drow farming, while the rest of your team get ganked and pushed.
TL:DR not the worst picks, lanes can be arranged better
