That game is pure delight from beginning to end. Sadly, we were deprived of the glory of seeing Huskar double Aghs be the perfect Bristleback counter, but it would've had to drag out for another five minutes, and it's perfect as it was.

I’m not sure Batrider can actually be bad. Sure, he hasn’t always been good enough to go mid, but I don’t think he’s really been totally out of the meta in the history of Dota. His kit is just too good.

some goon posted years ago that Batrider will always be good as long as he can Blink-Lasso-Force staff and they are correct to this day

his laning is much weaker though. the slow and damage on napalm is pretty significantly worse until you get your levels. the nerf to lasso cd also makes the hero worse at being a blink initiation hero. youre now a much, much worse farming core and also you still have this massive nerf to your initiation.

Scepter Rework: After impacting an enemy, Spark Wraiths now spawn a new Wraith, which then starts its activation period. Has a 3 second spawn delay. Duplicated Wraiths do not duplicate again

that seems kinda underwhelming but maybe the DK Aghs will be enough this game

Liquid just massively outdrafted OG in this game, I'm not sure what OG's timing is to win this one. I guess Razor/Void Spirit/Timber will get outscaled if the game goes like 45+ minutes or longer. Sure seems like this will be over under 30 though.

there have been sub-10:00 games but rarely between two top-ish teams. DK beat EternalEnvy C9 in like 11 minutes once.
