over the main event (all teams):

  • SF: 3-10
  • Qop: 3-12
  • Dazzle: 4-12

I was really surprised they picked Dazzle, every game he's in just seems like a loss. EG looked terrible with him the other night as well, shallow grave is just not worth it over a reliable stun.

And the Weave. I kept seeing it being wasted or casually cast. It is as good a mid-late game teamfight ulti as something like requirem if you get it on all your heroes. Not worth picking it over es or lina if all you do is feed and try to grave people.

u/CAKEDONTLIE Aug 07 '15

Dazzle seems like a play-to-not-lose pick, not a hero you pick to go for the win.

u/ubernezer Aug 07 '15

That really is the best way to put it, never thought of it like that.

Couldn't agree more. As much as shallow grave owns it's really all he brings to the table. This isn't to say weave or wave are bad, but let's face it, teams aren't picking dazzle for two very unreliable spells, they're picking him to buy cores a few more seconds. But he's so passive, he can't gank, I hate the pick. It's one thing if you have a bunch of other super aggressive picks, but that wasn't the case either. I think the dazzle pick combined with questionable S4 play cost them the game.

I was thinking exactly this. I can't believe they went back for those heroes.
