It's one thing to not have a strategy to combat it, and another to not have a comp that stops it well.
Well I doubt Xmithie could stop them all from recalling, especially with baron.
So then they could have stopped the attempt
But my main problem is that split push "strategies" are always pulled with chaps like Udyr, Fiora, and other champs (who I hate) because they out dual people no problem majority of the time.
So you send 2 people do deal with 1, and then now you can deal with the other side of the map
That's the whole point of split pushing, so it doesn't really work out as something you can have a strat to shut down, it's something you just "deal" with.
Again, it's just a gripe I have
Not like it's a "bad" thing, I just don't like it.
