In what scenario is it strategically advantageous to intentionally feed a single kill to the enemy carry?
It is strategically advantageous to intentionally feed a single kill to the enemy carry only when it guarantees the capture of a significantly more valuable objective or secures the safety of multiple teammates. This is a highly situational and risky tactic that should only be considered in specific circumstances. For instance, if sacrificing yourself to give a kill to the enemy carry allows your team to secure the Lord or destroy the enemy base, that's a worthwhile trade. The value of the objective gained must outweigh the gold and experience given to the enemy carry. Another scenario is when sacrificing yourself prevents the enemy carry from killing multiple teammates. For example, if the enemy carry is diving your backline and about to kill two or more of your core heroes, sacrificing yourself to stop them, even if it means giving them a kill, could save your team from a significant setback. This disrupts the enemy's momentum and keeps your team in the game. This tactic relies on precise timing and coordination with your team and carries significant risks. The carry could gain an even greater advantage and snowball out of control. It should only be considered when the potential reward is substantial enough to justify the risk.
