Titan/Mag/Tide combo, Weaver for pickoffs, Shadow Demon for extra control in fights and disrupting the CK/Wisp ganks.
You have very versatile lanes, all of which would work out nicely. You could run an agressive or defensive trilane with weaver/sd + titan or tide, the other going offlane or mid depending on where you send the mag. You could have run dual lanes with something like Weaver/Tide, Mag mid, SD/Titan, all of which would have been strong.
On the other hand their team looks like CK/Wisp + 3 randoms. No matter what one of the lanes is going to be odd; most likely a non-standard mid and dual lanes because there are no good offlaners. Their fights without good spellsteals lack control and leave the jakiro hoping that somebody walks into macropyres by choice.
They don't have much damage outside of the CK/Ursa physical attacks because of the lack of setup for the Jakiro. You have a team that should be able to wipe in any fight as long as you initiate right.
Their team honestly isn't that survivable either, while yours should be really hard to kill; Your team has tons of escape mechanisms and good defensive spells.
Added you on Steam.

...someone gif'ed that right?!
The Tidehunter kind of speaks for itself with the scoreboard and his items.. We kept telling him to cover Ravage with Anchor Smash immediately, but he never did it. Rubick stole Ravage every single time it was cast. Meanwhile I would always Skewer or Empower after RP, and he only ended up getting RP twice. How did he get it? On the Blink RP Wisp was tethered to someone and when the RP went off, the tether touched me so I was stunned and couldn't cover it, and it wasn't wide enough to get Rubick in it.
The level 1 Rosh really scared everyone and put them on edge, mostly because it wasn't SK = Ursa. People were getting caught by Wisp + CK, and they always had someone else there too.
If you watch the game though, you could tell it was very much a "tryhard" stack.

pfft, wisp doesn't work in china!
Maybe the game being half Singaporean is disrupting the magic.
The Meracle wisp play for those who missed it
Then you havent been watching much dota recently.
So you haven't seen Mouz yesterday?

I was actually thinking about that. Shadow Demon tped to base too. I didn't check if Disruption was on cooldown but couldn't he have disrupted the Io right before it relocated back? Would it work?

I wonder if it would be possible for him to sell the blink dagger for the original price again, or if that is invalid when used.

Invalid once used.
Yeah...when I switched to Dota 2 from SC...it was crazy how far behind blizzard is and how innovative Valve is...also you can see Blizz is now trying to copy the Dota 2 UI in HotS.

Wow. That was fucking awful from Dreamz. Oh my God. If you do this and you have no TP, you just need to either commit to the base race or go to the enemy fountain and get a TP or BoTs there or something. They just panicked and ran back and lost the game.
