Right, both objections are relevant mostly outside of teamfights, but even then not entirely. Try walking around the phalanx when under fire of + and his team's poke/focus. Any tank is significantly poked in that meantime, and any squishy carry pretty much dead. The guy's damage output is incredible if one is foolish enough to walk around straight through his.

Talking from the both sides of the wall now, I've experienced this happening to me (as well as being done to the enemy; rarely also by myself) and it usually forced me to burn in the better case.

Also, getting rid of a single who's used the gap-closer in a teamfight that's already been engaged, can lead to 5vs4, and consequently to a won teamfight. An that is not a threat, is just a gold sack on legs. The ability is very valuable when used after the enemy've fully committed to the teamfight and wasted if the opponent can just disengage. It is just about the proper usage in the right time.

Mhm, I wish I had more time to watch Korean technique. I simply suggested what a common sense was telling me. It is the same logic as with most champs, if one prepares setup for the gap-closer (or directly gap-closes/hastes themselves) while still within the fountain, the boost is practically for free. E.g. or  basically do the same even though in their case the setup is much simpler.
