aka my latest draft
1 / Sven (BKB might be down, but his supporting cast will hold down the enemy team if hes got some kiters)
2 / Brewmaster (anti carry and crazy teamfight capabilities and able to make space for Magnus to climb back up)
3 / Magnus (Ult will make Sven eat em alive)
4 / Wraith King (becoming carry in late game)
5 / Ancient Apparition (Cause AA a beast, I mean, REFRESHER AGHs? ;)
1 / Anti-Mage(cuz he is good at splitpushing/still good at manfighting/almost unkillable + my fav hero)
2 / Storm cuz ZoopZop
3 / Tide/Enigma
4 / Techies cuz i gotta reach that 60 min, and if my AM cant deal with Void, at list void team cant push
5 / insert decent supp on this patch
idk QoP doesnt seem so good late doe its a better snowballer probably than storm. But this is only about late game
Try to push against
Tree Omni Tinker Dusa Techies (Techies solo off for lanes, tri lane with dusa tree omni, mb omni supps techies off)
interesting, i see alot of techies love here.
as far as im concerned, techies isn't an ideal lategame hero.
He stops pushes, and is decent at locking them in.
But doesn't offer much in the 5v5 all in pushes aspect of 60min games
But what about a Tiny wisp, or a lone druid.
Given the oppertunity or you get wiped you'll lose your entire base.
Kunkka or a Rapier ember isn't worth underestimating in the lategame.
6 slotted sniper, kunkka or ember can hold megas off indefinately
a Necro can disable buyback, which is gamebreaking.
A furion has a global tp.
Even a 6 slotted spectre can do serious work, with buyback and a refresher in his courier, im pretty sure he'd wipe most teams out.
lots of sandking love too, His ulti falls off lategame, then he's just an elusive hero that has a stun.
Disrupter aghs hex > Sandking aghs shivas - Lategame.. (assuming both have a minimum of 2 slots) 1500 damage ulti on disrupter that stops you from bkbing seems a little bit better than an epicenter
Kunkka doesnt seem capable of winning a game on his own for me at least. Ember could be pretty good but he is a bit squishy even with skadi he has no armour. You can buy a AC but then you are not playing on Ember purpose anymore: to deall lotta damage on the whole enemy team. Tiny + wisp is okay but once you killed wisp tiny lose most of his mobility. Ya sand king is pretty bad, disruptor much much better. Necro is pretty nice but again, he doesnt seem capable of winning the game on his own. Idk, he depends on his team to do the damage so he can press R and win. Doe , in the right lineup he is a monster.
well, techies might not be so good at 5vs5, although when you have BoTs, Aghs, forcestaff, euls, hex and 1 more item depending on the game you got huge utility. And dont fucking forget about statis trap. 5 second stun? Really icefrog? + you dont have to fight in their ucking base , you can fight where your mines are. Secret just beaten fnatic mins ago with Kuroky techies.
And the defensive part of techies is just outstanding. I had dreams in which I played vs a god techies player and altough our team won every fight, we couldnt push the throne, until my teammates ragequitted. I think I need to stop playing dota.

What would your ideal lineup be.
Situationally, you can't pick like 5 carries or something but a standard draft that makes it lategame.
Tinker, Elder titan, Dusa, Shaker, Winter wyvern.
something like this would be a good example of an extremely good lategame team, that has 2 supports, an offlaner, a mid and a carry.
