In what way? He definitely has the action get ahead of him and he mixes up names sometimes but other than that he's really good. Certainly tends to read the situation better than Tobi does when by himself. Still does dota 1 stuff as well.

So that explains it, the Pudge in that game was asking people to say "Yaaaaaaaaz" on the mic.
Why do I ALWAYS get the 10 year old russians, who are terrible, and insist on playing hard carries, or pudge mid.
I never played with pubs as bad as this in HoN, I have the worst luck with publics. I wish this had some visible rating system. So I could know that I'm progressing away from playing with bads. I just have no idea, I might be stuck with bads forever

.So, Witch Doctor, how do you all build him?
For me, I usually start out with Wards/Currier, Two Iron Branches, and Tango's Health Pot Clairty. I'll often grab a sage's mask a few minutes into the game, to help with Mana Regin, and leave it as is for a while. I'll then Finish Magic Wand to free up Inventory. Now, I'll ether pick up Mek, Pipe, Or Drums of Endurance. If no one else is picking up the Mek, I'll start building it. If they have a ton of burst, I'll grab pipe. But if someone else picks up Mek and they don't have Burst, Drum is the way to go, gives you a decent bit of HP, and the speed aura/active is good in a pinch. Obviously picking up wards and other consumables when the situation calls for it.
Oh, and that Sage's Mask, I'll build it into a Soul Ring. But that I'll just do at a random tim.
At this point in the build (Magic Wand/Soul Ring/Boots/Big Ticket Support Item/TP Scroll/Wards), I'll normally just save my money to buy back. If I come into loads of cash that go above and beyond/the game drags out, I'll ether pick up force staff or a sheep stick.

My typical WD build:
Skills: Cask at 1. Max cask and maledect (you can also get one point into his heal, but you don't have the mana pool to sustain it until later)
Starting items: Courier or wards, tangos, HP potion, 2 branches, 2 mana potions.
Items to buy throughout the game: Upgraded courier/wards, magic wand, boots (upgrading to treads or face boots), bracer/drum, Mek, etc. Pretty item independent so you should be doing the support stuff quite a bit.

Just buy a scepter and you're a physical dps carry. Tips for all you new players!

Thats pretty common. In fact, there weren't enough, normally there is along the lines of 30+ of them all at once.
But 0/20, ouch.

If only I could be this baller in real games
I've started playing bot games as Clockwerk, taking one point in Rocket Flare, then spending the entire game in the fountain seeing if I can lead my AI pals to victory in spite of the enemy team effectively being up a player using nothing but 80-damage pyrotechnics displays.
I hope Valve adds more bots soon so I have a more diverse character selection to play Robo-Artilleryman with.

Wards win wars!
Okay guys, if you're seriously going to sit in a spectator spot and then tab out knowing that your computer isn't the greatest, can you please just leave the game? Stop wasting everyone's time, especially when we can't even figure out which spectator isn't loading. It's really frustrating wasting 10+ minutes trying to start the game when we have a full 10 already.
Or everyone could just use borderless window mode......
looks like someone is mad
It's a legit complaint
just like mine is a legitimate educated guess.
I'm not mad, just irritated. It's a waste of time for TEN+ people. It already takes long enough to gather 10 people sometimes, why join if you're not even going to watch...?
Also gg Uchip, we'll play again some time. My friends dispersed after your team took too long to gather back together. I think the only lane you guys won was the Omni/ES against my Enigma, but Omni didn't really get anything useful out of it to pull you guys through midgame. If he had opted for a mek instead of Vanguard, he'd still be pretty tanky, but he'd be more useful. Also you guys didn't really have anything to stop our pushes. Probably should have chosen Windrunner over Mirana. Oh, and the fact that you gave us the best hero in the game is just weird.

It kinda baffles me how all these bad players managed to get keys. Bored kdis with rich parents? or something?
lmao
me and bocky (top lane) were both lagging hard (haly, kiunch or creativesk can vouch for that)
our net is perma bad until the technician comes and fixes it
I think he was angry that we didnt get to rematch
gg though
furion is just farm all day kappy, you can do it.

i just got in to a game with a dude spawning 6 aegis of the immortal. PRETTY SURE HE"S CHEATING
Nah he was just Roshan stacking.
Also everyone should check out that game. Awesome stuff. Watch it.
Apparently people with really poor grammar are also getting keys.
