dragons is stupid OP. KOTL should be t5

[@oliyoun]

So, I'm gonna be real with you: this is a really, really bad take and if you want to improve at the game, this is not the way to think. None of the top players think Dragons are broken. None of the top players think kotl should be T5. Dragons IS one of the ultimate lategames in the game (which should exist) and if you're losing to it, well, sorry, but that's probably on you not playing well. You have options - Riki, Naga, Centaur, Aqir, Bkb, Pipe, Hood; these all deal well with Dragons - as well as just putting pressure on the lobby. Playing Dragons can feel "op" in lower rank lobbies simply because no one is doing anything; but that's not to the fault of Dragons, it's simply because the majority of the players are afk ... so going lategame is almost always an easy and safe option to do.

You're welcome to feel how you feel of course, and also welcome to express frustration - but Dragons simply aren't op, and holding on to that belief is only gonna limit both your enjoyment of the game and the skill at which you can play :)

@@oliyoun Well, yeah, that's how I feel. Sure I am playing in lower levels as I don't really play for rank. (Stuck at rook since I am not playing bishop/rook+ lobbies) And yes, your're correct, almost everyone is afk and most of the games could've just started at round 20 lol. But the thing is with dragon, unlike every other build, is that it just deletes everything you have in 2 seconds. And that's just silly in my opinion :) Also, every dragon player in lower games are level 11 or 12, since everyone AFKs and play for gold, so it's harder to counter. Maybe dragon aren't OP in higher games, but in pawn, bishop, rook games, they are. And therefore I think they should be reworked. Maybe revert it so units with a synergy doesn't get 100% mana again? Or make 5 dragons harder to get? Also, about kotl - it feels like it's the only mage that deals dmg now, except for zeus ofc. You rarely see a 9mage player anymore, because most of the mages go dragon instead and only play kotl/zeus. Maybe nerf kotl and buff the other mages/add a new mage?
