MTF vs IPONAN 2nd game

This game was suppose to be written 3 weeks ago. This was the game 2 between our match at iponan . Were we kind of go there and asks for a game . Enough of this talk .

Here goes ~

Game 2 started . and I didn't get the print screen on the pick and ban phase . So here's the part where i will show you the ban -pick heroes manually. And i kind of explain a little of the heroes use .(even if i really hate explaining) . so here goes .

We were sentinel this time cause we won 1st game which actualy put us from scourge-sentinel . THERE .the enemy got the first pick advantage here . captain still braga *

I kind of forgot the bans so I dont wanna discussed it here anymore *sorry about that .

1st PICKING phase -- (  i dont know if i got the hero sequence right , so bear with me for a while )

1st pick goes to scourge   ~

And pugna was thier first pick. A great pick for picking pugna ,because pugna's ward can really disturb the enemy team especially during clashes , where mass skills where use , and there's where the ward do its tricks. So this is why we should be carefull in clashes *especially when clashes at jungles where juke spots are almost everywhere . So there a great first pick by scourge.

2nd pick goes to sentinel (us) ~

Dk and venge was our pick. Our targer for this pick was really unknown ? . i think it was to counter-push the push by pugna . Dk can be very useful in pushing especially in his lvl 1 dragon . and on clash on his lvl 3 dragon ,which can really hurt. A fast lothars and BkB can make the game in favor to us .Picking venge in this phase was really predictable, venge was used in two other ways : * to make the tri-lane dominte thier lane
* for the roaming phase , where venge's stun can be really useful. So there's our tricky yet unplanned pick .

3rd pick to scourge ~

 I'm not really sure with this heroes. But i know that picking necrolyte was supposedly to anti our Dk. Necrolyte's reaper does a large dmg on Dk( a str hero) because Dk has a large HP which gives reaper deal mass dmg when cast during Dk's survival period . not to mention the stun given by the reaper if it can't kill. and the CM pick here is used to be an aura hero which gives a global mana regen which helps the other heroes cast more spells than usual. So there's the anti pick by scourge.

4th pick back to sentinel (us) ~

Here we picked morphling which was totally unbanned (which was banned at first game) we chose this hero for multi-purposing first was to have a nuke hero at tri-lane *although a POTM would be a much better ban , we chose morphling for that , because his waveform is for two purpose dmg-escape , which is very useful in early-late game . second purpose was to have a carry hero to farm his core - luxury items . rather than Dk , morphling is better go farming than go join clashing in early- mid game . So a Pick to get the game to mid - late game .

*BAN phase (which i totally forgot) sorry about that


2nd PICKING phase -- ( still don't know the sequence , just bear with me )

1st pick in the second phase here goes to the scourge ~

The weaver pick here didn't went to our minds, because they picked weaver on first game , we didn't know they were gonna pick em twice . so there a weaver pick for the scourge which gives them a carry hero that can really hurt , and also a -support hero . This pick was not really according to what we expected.

2nd pick goes to sentinel(us) ~

A sniper pick here was really a disturbed pick for me, cause sniper don't really fit to our team play, because we already picked morphling to do the farming to carry the game to late game *if necessary . So in this state , we must make both morphling and sniper farm their core items , so that during clashes won't be a big problem. So there an utterly odd pick from us.

3rd pick and last pick for the scourge ~

As we all know , when we review all the picks picked by scourge we already knew that the last pick would be a support hero , so we had some kind of theories - it might be a WD or LICH or maybe an OGRE , but we didn't expect this pick. Venomancer is such a lethal support , he's a semi-hitter .which skills are so deadly for the supports. So clashes here is very dangerous , because of  WARD (pugna) and SS (veno) instant kill for supports. An unexpected pick again by the scourge.

4th and last pick for the sentinel(us) ~ 

This phase take a lot of time picking since it was the last pick , and the other thing is that it will be a support hero . Visage came to our mind first since visage is very useful than being a semi-carry hero, his slow and ss can be very useful during ganks , but we came to our last decision picking AA as a support is also useful , nonetheless his SS and first kill hurts you know . so there , we completed the team with an AA .

So there both teams completed the ban / pick phase , thus STARTING the real game instantly.

Rush item buying were done, but our strategy for this game was playing safe, thus not going for the smoke + 5 hero = lvl FB . we came to a plan that they can't get the first blood , wards wasn't planted yet . That makes the enemy so unpredictable to move . And another thing , this bothered me most, cause a 2-1-2 lane was requested .

So there , creeps started spawning on three lanes . thus we move to our lanes . when mid lane creeps started colliding , suddenly two heroes started ganking Dk at mid lane , they were

 that resulted to a first blood by the scourge. Then resulting to that, i started roaming the map , leaving morphling soloing bot against necrolyte, upon leaving Morphling, 3-line was pressuring morphling, and my roaming job was a total mess, setting me into a level stuck and item stuck. Every gank i tried eventually failed. hahahaha. and therefore setting top lane's support .

AA by chum

Upon leaving top lane, sniper is really in a tight spot againts  Weaver. but a succesful gank at mid was made, therefore giving our DK advantage at lane / farming . When top lane's sniper farmed up his lothars, a push was wanted at top lane , therefore taunting heroes to tp to defend thier tower, therefore this happen ~

A triple kill was done by our dead sniper ,but counter killing sniper, ending his Killing Spree streak. But on the otherhand , where bot lane was not on our mind, LACK of roaming on bot , resulting to a pushed tower, but luckily morphling on bot lane  eventhough outlaned, still isn't far on farming, morphling already had his

BOT (boots of travel)

thus , concluded that , TOP and BOT lane was on our side , even killing was on our side. thus the game is on our favor.

*because of this laaaaaaaaaate post, i don't remember some of the moments.

As i remember a clash happened at river bot lane. But only proven that ,we had the game on our hand , making our 

Killing both

Ignoring the ward placed by pugna, we still won the clash, GIVING us the chance to farm items , we needed.

so here, Item check on 30min mark.

 After sometime , some MANhunt on pugna was done , thus forcing their team to be on there base, and a very shocking item was being seen on pugna, where we saw pugna on his

VANGUARD

that kinda shocked us for a while, then farming was done. thus farming up our hitters their luxury items.

then a split push was done at top lane and bot lane , where we were trying to push.  this happened

After that , a GG was called, thus we won 2-0 Bo3 game. and a 2v2 was being requested by the opposing team , where we strongly disagree. upon hoping to end the game by destroying their Frozen throne. this happened ~

GG :)
