AM, it’s the one hero that I don’t want on my team at all. And if he’s meta it means games are just lasting for way too long with no way to finish before min 50 and farming no fighting is the go to.
Tinker being meta is not too bad if you just have catch with zeus+ spirit breaker or similar. If you don’t, it’s annoying af
That’s every am I’ve seen, if enemies has am it’s the easiest game because we can just force fights everywhere as 5, and the am Isn’t gonna do much in fight compared to a safelaner like CK/Slark with actual abilities. They aren’t present til min 50 not because they don’t show up, but because they are useless compared to most other safelaners without items, and the hero is harder to comeback with from a loosing position
Ck can get armlet and now he can fight, Slark/Pl get diffusial and they can fight, Monkey king is useful almost whenever, Luna, Naga can farm faster and has very good team fighting abilities. Am just thrives when enemies are never grouped or if his team manages to win fights without him.
Good am players is still a burden for their team, gotta 4v5 til minute 50
Warlock, game ended with everyone abandoning so I didn’t get to play. 1st actual game PL with 37/2/7. Came from league so maybe I had a bit off a head start in 2014
In solo q I think I’ve encountered one meepo smurf which was painful, we spend entire match dealing easily with him and then he get aghs and it’s fucking impossible to do anything without a troll, witch doctor, lock, necro or bristle.
In party queue I often see 200 matches people playing like it’s TI in unranked
