Also if the other team picks up enigma or even rubik then the plan can turn itself around (im quiet sure Navi did this in the International 2 a few times)

What do you do if the other team throws a team fight by using none of there ultis to put black hole on cool down, buys back and pushes mid as 5?

A risky strat but certainly out of the box.
My lone druid starting items are 12 Iron wood branches, 6 for the hero and 6 for the bear. Even if the bear does not get stats more twigs are OP on any hero.

If you're going for ultimate team fight potential in the situation you described, try replacing Lion with Witch Doctor. I think his abilities are better for multiple hero battles. His Maledict would be perfect while the team is in Disruptor's field. Then you could throw down his chain stun and ult when the field starts to end to keep them in Disruptor's ult for a longer period of time.

nice, maybe dark seer's vacuum or magnus's ulti would be great, and shadow fiend instead of enigma.

Yeah an equally good line up is Magnus, Dark Seer, and FV. And its a viable team pick with Dark Seer suicide, FV Safe lane, and Magnus mid. Just as effective as your line up, but one less hero so it leaves you with more options.

Edit: Looks like the person above me beat me to it.

Juggernaut, Jakiro, Dark Seer, Batrider or Silencer, Nature's Prophet or Rubick would be my preferred line-up

Juggernaut scales pretty good into late game but has a fantastic mid-game

Jakiro can push really well and is strong in teamfights

Dark Seer strong teamfight with good utility abilities, setups up many teamfights

Batrider strongest mid-laner as of now or Silencer who can shut down teamfights and Last Word stronk!

Nature's Prophet for global presense and can transition well into the late game or Rubick for tri-lane and is overall strong hero


In the ideal situation, Dark Seer uses Vacuum on all or most heroes then before the Vacuum sucks them up, Jakiro lands Ice Path stunning them in a tight ball. Dark Seer then uses Wall of Replica while Batrider is using Firefly along with Sticky Napalm. Juggernaut is right-clicking the hell out of them or if they're all generally squishy Bladefury ftw.

Surge + Batrider makes it nearly impossible for that single person to escape and this group does pretty well is pseudo-teambattles
