Damn, what a game. You're telling me there was an Aegis steal on top of this?! I'll have to consult the vod for the 30 or so minutes I missed.

Wards win wars!
Exhibit 9,567: Wards spotted Skeleton King stealing up to Roshan alone. I was the first responder, and as a Lich I naturally tarried on the high ground to let teammates get a bit closer. When I went down and in, Roshan had a sliver of health left. Lacking better things to do (given SK had a stun), I hit him with my Euls and waited for backup (didn't have the damage to finish Rosh myself, though I definitely tried). He got the Aegis seconds before the team arrived, but he died thrice before a single teammate could come to his rescue. I like to think I could have stolen it, but one Hellfire Blast would have been enough to sideline me and finish the attempt.

this isn't cheating? At 15 seconds of the game?
 
Creep scores in the dark win wars.

Creep scores in the dark become hero scores in the dark. For the other team.

Did you see what I did there, to that word-conglomerate.
 
seems like a bug that they are going to hot fix. the best part was hey its not helping me that much. DOTA community are a bunch of cunts, my god.
 
DOTA noob question, I just started playing a week ago. I'm playing Lich and I'm not using Ice Armor that much, is viable to drop it from my build or is it more useful than I think?

Ice Armor is one of the best buffs in the game.
 
Extremely viable later on. +9 armor and the movement speed + attack speed slow on attacking enemies is not to be sneezed at.

You'll want it for late game atleast, so just skill it when you have maxed out the other two skills. If you're up against heroes like anti-mage and having a hard time, you might want to put one rank in frost armor early on for the slow.
 
True facts, auto-casting Frost Armor will sooner or later leave you without enough mana to spam all your skills in a teamfight. Throw it out manually and regularly creep sacrifice and you'll be golden.
 
Wow, they survived a perfect Enig + Tide combo.

Outrageous.
 
That was insane, 3 perfect ultis countered by mek, Necrolyte heal and pipe to win the team fight with no Agility hero. I recognize these names a lot, most of them HoN players right.
 
furion is just farm all day kappy, you can do it.

I can chill in the jungle for 15 minutes np, but then I always have promlems when it comes time to actually doing work. I know how to press R and click, but the whole teleporting-pushing thing I am not very good at.
 
Screw this DOTA shit, MK + MK vs MK + MK, Final Destination is where it's at.
 
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

Yeah I'm sure he was mad. Lol@bocky calling me a dodger. Your team is the one that pussied out after being mega creep'd after 25 minutes, not our fault he took forever to find more ringers. Rematch tonight if you guys want, really doesn't matter, you can tell him that shit was a cakewalk.

We don't take kindly to whiners, so tell bocky to calm down if he wants good mannered games.

Ice Armor is a good buff, the question in my eyes is how early you want to get it. If the lane is heavy in Melee Characters, its worth it to pick it up at 3 or 4, if the Melee character's aren't giving you much trouble, put a point in it at 7 or 8. Early game the +2 armor is nice, but is the Frost Debuff thats really going to save a person being beat on, which doesn't get applied to Ranged Characters. You usually are good with just one point in it till your other skills are maxed, but if the enemy line up is heavy in physical attacks, putting more points into it can be very helpful.
 
Excellent, using weaver and Slar as bait while Enig ults everyone.
 
Need to give Slardar another shot after watching this.
For me, Slar is a more consistent NS. Though he doesn't snowball as hard, he never has to worry about day or night.

Truly a good example of a well made hero, nearly never balanced and still always viable but not overpowered.

Even though it might not be the most creative hero ever made.
 
DROPS DOWN THE THING.

and yeah, Slar is wicked good, I have a reflex to pick slar whenever i see riki on the other team.
