Review
GSC was clearly disoriented by the Watcher/Ion Shield combo employed by TFF in the top Scourge lane. At the 15 min mark, they decided to ward the top lane, which pushed back the Puck's and later the Medusa's farming considerably. The Pandaren in mid was farming well against the Zeus, and decided to rice for a long time, taking brief breaks to gank top and bottom. Lion and Lina are gay, they ganked well (aside from the fb gank which almost failed) and did a good job on limiting the carries from farming.
Okay now the bad points. Kyon made the match harder that it should have been by forcing 3 "weird" heroes into the lineup, namely the Weaver, DS and Panda. Thus, there was little to no synergy between Lion-Lina with Weaver, DS or Panda. While Pandaren was farmed, he should not have gone for the tank build. Granted it was useful, but it forced the Weaver to become uber dps when its supposed to be a chaser/secondary dps. It also prolonged the game into late game due to Lion, Lina and DS's diminishing effectiveness. Radiance at 30 mins beats a Heart and Radiance at 50 mins, due to the level difference. A win is a win, but a carry shouldnt go for tank before damage in my honest opinion. Lion's necro was also a bit of an afterthought, an aghanim would have helped a little more or a bit more raw damage (orchid, mkb, deso).
Surprisingly, IngeSelin had a sacrificial role which meant this is a rare win when he sacrifices. Normally when he sacrifices, TFF loses. So woohoo for Inge Selin! *applause*
Nubs of the Tutong matches : Kyon (for sabotaging 2nd game), PoTM, CW (for being squishy)
That's all folks! Tune in next time for the next episode. Please note that all comments are meant to be constructive and not personal attacks. Inge Selin. Nub.
