adding caustic to it made it even more fun and then the change to make caustic do %maxhp damage got even better

Ever since the caustic %maxhp change happened I've been dying to see a Echo Slam level hit in a team fight. Has there been any memorable ones in pro games?

pros like never buy aghs on sand king and it annoys me a lot

like I understand why they do it (they're cowards prostrating themselves to appease the current meta of offlaners buying mostly utility items(I don't know if this is the actual meta but I feel like that's all I see sand kings buy)) but it still annoys me.

But to give credence to your wish lemme tell you I have hit those and it's just as if not more satisfying than an echo slam.

e: realtalk though I think the real reason sand king doesn't buy aghs in pro games very much is because for it to have a big impact you need to be greeder than most games/teams allow the offlaner to be because it will absolutely come at the expense of your 1 and 2, and in the bracket I play in they are not efficient enough for my greed to negatively affect them.

Ever since they nerfed how caustic interacts with illusions the aghs viability plummeted. It used to be an instant way to delete PL or Naga, but now it is just vanilla good. I think it's great for dealing with NP but you need to really go hard in hoping that it pays off.

lmfao this hokori / undying game

this riki bought meteor hammer and shard and turned a 25k lead for undying into a 15k and a rosh

e: TA being able to blow up traps while dead is hosed up imo, that should be changed

aghs on sk is really loving good but its also 4k networth when you could instead have a blink plus most of a halberd or halfway to a lotus or w/e.

Yeah most pro teams that pick SK want him to farm team items like Pipe so it's really hard to justify spending 4.2k gold on...not a Pipe

The LGD vs Aster.Aries Pudge 1 game I watched was Pudge 1 turning an early 10k lead for the much better team into a super close game where they were behind for a while before eventually outskilling the inferior team in one big fight for the win. Are any of the others a better performance by Pudge or are all the wins despite him?

Did the most recent fiftEE/fiftEE make its way here? Because this seems like the most Envy clip imaginable that isn't forgetting a TP scroll when the enemy is pushing 'racks. It's exactly why I'd never want him on my team but generally enjoy watching him.

It's probably a good trade, even. It just looks ridiculous in a way that happens to EE as much as everyone else combined.

It’s definitely a good trade imho.

EE actually died to the death explosion — he killed SF before SF killed anyone (getting EE xp and denying SF), and he traded a mediocre farm-speed hero for the enemy’s tempo-setter / power farmer. Spec can catch up; SF needs to be constantly owning.

Yes, this exactly. The relentless mentioning of him in every single cast is incredibly annoying and is wholly unique to EE. Not even RTZ gets that level of rear end kissery and constant attention in casts, even in games where he's owning, but EE is the sole focus of every single game he's in no matter what his team or the other team are doing
