i don't know... both drafts are good but Peppo has a more versatile draft, and that last pick will definitely be a game changer, i'm thinking a direct counter to team fighters like Tinker or natures prophet and one other guy

teamfight draft
versatile draft


tim: relies on brawn
peppo: relies on brains



definitely on "brains" side, but "brawn" seems stronger by the looks.

get your brains on peppo.

HAHAAAA, CAN YOU SCRUBLETS FIGURE OUT MY BRILLIANT DRAFT?

=D

You heard the man! Can you figure out his strategy? Can you deduce the FINAL PICK?! Is DOTA Doomed?

Find out in next week's installment of "DOTOFire: Sex, Drugs, Lies & Mustaches"! 8{D




I will personally +rep anyone who can deduce the Final Pick, simply post below stating which Hero it is (you can only make 1 guess) along with your elementary-dear-Watson below. 8{3

Hmmmm,

I'm going to guess Earth Spirit. Peppo's team has excellent gank potential, and ES has both a strong escape and several ways to keep allies from being picked off. His teamfight contribution isn't negligible, either.

My other ideas were:
A (likely offlane) Faceless Void, for the cronosphere with Death Ward and Macropyre, along with extra carry potential. I chose ES instead because any more teamfight focused picks would be overkill.
A Pugna because his Nether Ward is extremely strong against Skywrath Mage and Lion. His pushing with Nether Blast is also useful, considering the Jakiro pick. I chose ES instead because pugna is vulnerable to ganks and Decrepify has few(er than normal) uses without any strong nukers on his team, or particularly strong physical damage on Peppo's

(I hope the links worked, never tried this before)

Edit: Good, it worked. I haven't played captain's mode in a while, and thought he'd been enabled. Oh well.
I'm bad. Very bad.

ES is not in captains mode, since we are still playing by those rules.

I love the Jakiro pick.







pls, invite me to your team Timmi :))))))))))))))))))))






P.S. Can't wait for that Aghanim's Scepter on Lion + Reverse Polarity + Sleight of Fist with Battle Fury and Mystic Flare.

I gotta say the draft looks pretty grim for Tim if it's a carry Naga as Peppo has so many ways of dealing with the illusions.

So, I would guess it's a support Naga and a position 1 Jakiro. Maybe a Shadow Fiend last pick for flash farming and mid-game victory. Or Dragon Knight for full deathball.

EDIT: Going to go for SF for the +rep <|:D
