    Could someone take a quick look at this game and tell me what I could have done better. I was sniper mid up against (Was it a smurf?) Brood.

    Anyway I lost mid but I managed to avoid dying. I escaped a few early deaths cos I rushed SB (and I think managed to evade 3 times before clock bought his first dust and got me) after maelstrom. So I'm glad I did that. We won a few teamfights and most importantly I managed to survive and I'm also happy that I managed to avoid getting hooked by clock.

    As the game wore on, I had 4k gold and tis is where I think I made my first mistake which was to buy a crystalis and later I upgraded to a daedulus which did absolutely nothing for me. Our AM was split-pushing with his tp on cd for the last fight, I stupidly focused on jugs who had an aegis....then NP tp'ed next to me, hexed me and that was it...gg... Don't wanna blame anyone, just wanna know what I could have bought or done to make some difference to the game.

    I was thinking linkens but NP has bloodthorn on top of hex so wouldn't have made a difference. Maybe BKB? But doesn't stop jugs ulti either.

    Thanks.

      Definitely BKB. You should never be solo zoned by jugg's ult, and if you are there's very little you can buy to survive anyway apart from perhaps Satanic. I would have gone BKB and perhaps Hurrican Pike, and then Satanic.
