Tiny is an extremely good player, and pretty darn scary to face. Tiny runs meta bgs. Most of the runes Tiny plays are op, or work towards an op combo. However, not everything he runs is op. For example, by your statement Essence Drain is op. But Essence Drain isn't broken: Ride Down is, and ED is just in there to enable Ride Down. Dead Fairy is run, at least by me, because she is a fast, long range, DOTing, magic-damage dealing, healing-countering, initiative champ. She fills a lot of different common holes at once (ethereal, heal spam, speed), and that's what makes her great, not efficiency or sheer power.
Sure not sheer power... But she's/he's efficient in a sense that she/he is almost always a good deploy in every game... Imo, the only reason dead fairy is good is because 1) she/he has a horrendously low HP which offsets that 5-6 range high cost, 2) 5-6 instead of 4-6... Its not like anyone's gonna catch her easily at that range in a Haunting Grip/Corpseapult/GrimWell festival. Imo, this really makes her cheaper and well-suited when compared to other pure range-poking elves. On the top of my mind, only Deadly Tracker comes to mind. Both has avg DMG, 0 def, superb range (logistics), multiple uses (anti heal vs Detection)... The only way to make her/him less efficient is to let him have the Klub treatment of +HP. Cant think of ripping apart a rune that is already simple enough. Rabid, init, magic dmg...
Burnpyro hasn't done jack didely squat aside from complaining about Tinydragon, as an excuse to complain about D. Fairy. You've made literally 0 - - mark it down ZERO points to this thread, whatsoever, no discussion! We get it! You slobber on Tiny's **** as a hobby. What does it have to do with ANYTHING in this thread? Tell us, mr. I'm so elite. What's your POINT SON? I tried the first time around to be polite and inquire, but you tend to be a jackass about these things on a regular basis either way so let's cut the crap already W T F IS YOUR POINT?! tl;dr @BurnPyro complained about Tinydragon using D. Fairy. And for what? What does that have to do with this thread's case? AT ALL? Back on topic:
