    So there's an upcoming mini-tournament here in our area and I need some good advice on things on captains mode and the current meta heroes and such.

    Our team consists of me 4k+/ two 3.5k's and two 2.5k's.
    The tourney will be ranging to 3k - 5k players

    So back to the topic. What are some good lineups or meta today that favors the likes of Storm/SF/EShaker I mainly plan to use these heroes on the tourney. What are good combinations and Banned Heroes that goes along with them.

    So why storm/sf/es only and not others? Well for ES, I hate to have that thing on the opposing team and theres someone on us who's good at that hero, As for SF/Storm, They're my highest and best Mid heroes.

    Some questions : Can WW go offlane? Are Slardar/ES/Stunner a good trilane combination? How to counter PL other than Gyro. What's a Good hero to counter Offlane Zues 1v1. What are some good trilane combination right now.

    Some Other Advice/Insights aswell as Critisism are welcome

    Bad Intentions

      Honestly man, just play for fun :D its your first tourney should be no sweat for d first try :D

        You have two 2.5ks on your team.... Every gameplan you make, will crumble, cause they will not be able to execute it. Give them easy to play supports, with no crucial teamfightskills. Venge etc.

        Metallicize

          i played in some mini-tournaments while being 4.5k with 3.5k mid, 3.5k offlane and 1.8k, 1.6k supports)))))).
          we always started 3 0 and then we met the stack who actually proceeded to win the tournament. keepo

          unless you get some mad luck you can't win with 2k's in your team, but you can always try i guess.

              just play and after each game, evaluate each other, pointing out mistakes then try not to do it the next game

              P.S. (Every on have bad games, some have their brain not working well while playing :3 )

                ww can go offlane, i think he trades hit with supports decently and hes super annoying once he get sr tranqs or arcs against a melee carry
                zeus solo offlane is super weak but if the trilane is incompetent he can become very annoying. any carry can beat him really, you just have to be very aggressive and not let him arc for free. if i know im fighting zeus offlane i just go 1 set of regen 2 branches and get my boots from the sideshop. for a guranteed 1v1 win huskar is the best

                slardar es + stunner isnt that great i think, i very much prefer having a ranged carry when im playing him, he increases/decreases kill potential but adds nothing to laning trades so you need a ranged/strong laning carry to suplement that

                gyro isnt a good counter to pl imo, best counter is ember, es and sand king (top 3 imo, pl hates instant aoe stuns the most) followed by magnus and axe
