So in that situation was there anything that vega could really do? After all those times they were able to rebuff the pushes to their highground was winning a teamfight at their doorstep their only out?

Hopefully MVP drafts heroes that don't make me instantly want them to lose next time.

Let them play 5v5 Invokers.

Buy a silver edge at some point and shut Razor or Bristle down with it. Surprised they didn't do it all game honestly.

Eh, it was burned in a while ago since I've watched a lot of Dota on it. It was almost gone from watching other content, but I'm sure it's back after today.

It is not even a terrible pick up on Ember, not optimal but you still get the Bonus Damage when you Sleight. Not sure if you can AoE Break with it but only needed it to hit Bristle once when focusing him.
