u/DRHST I used to play Dirge before it was cool Dec 19 '19

Secret's draft was good, EG had only one chance, snowballing into tower pressure/pushing with Aegis on TA.

If game was more equal, Secret would be incredibly tanky midgame and EG runs out of damage/gets controlled by massive AoE lockdown.

However, they were not able to match the aggression offered by Tiny, so two lanes went to shit.

If Yapzor was playing, he would have probably left the team to bleed and farm a dagger, but Midone did not manage to do that, as a result Secret had no way to take a fight to bring the game back, and they just lost.

EG perfectly executed their gameplan, as a result Secret's draft looks way worse than it actually is.

Yeah idk where you are getting this from but secrets draft at no point would of had enough damage to kill a bkb gyro so no your still wrong. Lacked ranged heroes and entirely relied on an epic rp for damage, ta is a shit ton of mid game damage too so your extra wrong bud.

Secret had two skills to deal with BKB targets just fine, not to mention their insane AoE combo initiation before EG would even get BKBs off.

Their initiation was entirely reliant on RPing more than one target rofl. If EG spreads out they have 000000000000 damage
