PL might get countered by AoE, but OD is way more reliably countered by mana burn. He's mostly food atm.
everything kills od right now, he's like sniper with less range and no shrapnel. Does that actually sound playable?
he is pretty weak, one of the list of 10 Best Heroes To Pick if You Want to Give Mmr Away
Outworld is decent actually, Mileena, Kitana, Reptile and all that shit come from there. Death of Shao Kahn was obviously a nerf, but Kotal Kahn is here to save the day.
incoming smaug essay on the State of the Outworld, followed by complaints about being targeted and legal threats.
So he's generally a poor pick even though his Q and R counter illusions?
You KNOW a meta is fucked up when a potential counter to a hero is irrelevant.

0.02% advantage for PL. You could say they are on par as far as pub play goes. I still don't think OD is nearly as useful as phantom lancer is. PL will push better, will wreck the whole team easier, whether they band together or are spaced out, he'll build to be much tankier where OD stacks int, OD has no natural escape mechanism and is hard countered by magic immunity, etc. So even though the matchup might be kinda even, PL is just a better hero atm.
I was thinking about support OD, as a counter to Lesbian Commander, while providing free mana regen for allies. May work... probably...
He's one of the best mid heroes in the game. He can completely shut down any mid hero with imprisonment. He has a strong AoE ulti as well, not many other carries do.

I'm curious cause PL kinda gets countered hard by AoE and Blood is boring as fuck.
Is OD remotely viable in this meta or is he 'meta carry' food?
