Strategy Chat with fnatic.MSI's player and drafter Kwom
How to define "key hero"?
Kwom - Well, every hero plays its role, they're parts of a good lineup. The wards have to be put out otherwise the entire team fails. The ganks have to come from some heroes since everyone can't farm at the same time, but the carry hero is often the key hero nowadays where it all goes around that particular hero to become strong.
Very reasonable as the farming/turtling strategy is very present on games nowadays.
Kwom - Yeah, it proves itself the best possible strategy for the majority of the teams at the moment. I believe you could pick out a push strategy also, but it's not as popular right now as the normal farm/gank strategies.
Also, there is a new kind of push strategy now, the one with many healers like LoA + Necrolyte / Warlock / Enchantress / Chen, or is this already old?
Kwom - Well it's kind of old in inhouse leagues and I know some people have played it in some tournament games. All of those heroes are played kind of so it's not new, but there are some crazy boring but imbalanced healer strategies that people don't play.
Could you give me an example?
Kwom - I don't quite know exactly what I would've picked but a strategy with Undying, Omni, Shadow Priest is kind of really really hard to kill.
I see. Heroes like Enchantress and Shadow Priest got kinda of noticed in the latest versions, mostly Enchantress because SP got some buffs. Do you think that Enchantress is really strong?
Kwom - Enchantress is one of the top 5 heroes of DotA right now and it works out in some strategies, really imbalanced.
Shadow Priest hasn't got nerfed.
Any reason why Enchantress is so good?
Kwom - Well her Impetus does shit loads of damage and fast, her heal is imbalanced and makes her really hard to kill. The other two spells are decent also, especially Untoachable, making heroes not able to attack her fast.
Do you think that there are really imbalanced heroes on DotA?
Kwom - Yes, I do believe that some heroes are far too good. I say nerf Enchantress, Undying, Bat Rider, Morphling, Tauren Chieftain and Rhasta's wards. Also, nerf Bane Elemental a bit.
I agree. Now, out of strategy, what are your expectations with fnatic.MSI?
Kwom - I don't have any expectations right now about fnatic.MSI, only that we are good. I hope fnatic can send us to some lan, where we do our best.
Well, this sums it all. Thanks for taking your time, Kwom, I'm looking forward to your next games and I wish you and your team best cheers.
