It really does seem like ma3la playing pocket was a big upgrade. Ma3la himself also said he was a better pocket than roamer, and I was expecting him to play pocket this esea season, but I guess he's more confortable playing roamer. I'm not saying Rando is a bad pocket, as he's obviously one of the best pockets out there, just my thoughts after watching i55.

I mean Rando's obviously amazing, but could you imagine what Shrugger and Yomps could do with more than 20% heals between both of them? The games with Ma3la pocketing seemed to have a much better heal spread without much of a drop off in pocket effectiveness.[/quote]

You're right. With more heal spread throughout the team, Ascent could probably be a lot better.

I don't really agree, I felt like I wasn't able to play my game after we switched around roles. the upside was that we had more energy and comms in the combo but ma3la is a pretty heal heavy pocket just like rando so nothing in that regard changes. our games with rando on pocket were a lot more fast paced so I felt like i was more of a factor but on 2nd day the games were slowed to a crawl. I felt like I couldn't do anything and it was pretty frustrating. We just weren't on our game and I am pretty confident that if there is a next time, we won't make the same mistakes
