MYM might be playing with a big ping disadvantage. Somehow the observer failed to mention SK's ping for this game but in game 1 he said SK had around 150. MYM has 400 now and 300 in game 1.
 
jesus christ you guys are really beating this skeleton king guide thing into the ground. this must be what it's like to go to reddit and watch in real time as humour dies.
 
sanjay told me skadi on drow was pretty good, what do you guys think? gives her the well needed stats and orb effect.
 
Archie and Kneepat, just some tips for you guys.

Both games when you were laning with me, you were super passive, although Kneepat when you were playing VS you pulled the lane constantly, there were so many opportunities for us to kill the Death Prophet but you were never in lane or played really back, if you have a combo that is better then the enemies your facing in lane, you should almost always try to play aggressive, especially considering they had no stuns so they wouldn't be able to do much to us, and that Death Prophet kept rushing way past her creep line and the Bounty hunter to harass me, we could've easily killed her due to her poor positioning.

I'll forgive you for the creep stun

As for Archie, you were so scared in that Beastmaster / Lion lane, don't know why you were constantly standing so far away, you weren't able to harass and you also weren't able to follow up quick enough when I used Void. The only reason I could imagine would be if you were trying to stay out of Experience range, but even considering that, the more efficient method for making sure we both level faster then our counter-parts would have been to stack and pull once the ward expired.

Were some fun games though. Terribly tacky that you picked AM Archie.
 
well I was going to quote myself and ask how you can lose on AM, but I guess I'll have to wait for that another day. support swag too strong, archie not heavy enough.
 
honestly War Stomp is just a way better ability. just get a port key + war stomp, and boom, Doom Bringer is the new Centaur, but actually useful.

it's like a build your own character, all rolled up into dota!
 
Has he not played AM in a long time either?

Who, Ignis? No idea, but what happened was Conceptor randomed Nature's Prophet in an inhouse last night and it was the first time he ever played the hero. Ignis instantly picked Antimage and responded with "lol furion pickers". Therefore, if you are salty from someone who randoms Prophet or Antimage, you may counterpick the other op hero.

you missed the joke :(

Also I don't care if ppl pick AM/furion in IHs, just be prepared to take shit for it.

Actually, it was someone else who said "lol AM pickers" first.
 
Oh, my mistake if someone called out lol am pickers first. I honestly don't care either way, it's just amusing when you get bickering and instant salt picks when Prophet or AM are picked in an inhouse. I'll just counterpick if you choose one of those heroes anyway.

All this stems from neki and kapura. IHs got alot saltier when they started casting them.
 
Not as serious as Botolf pressing random.

- Ursa
- Doom Bringer
- Lifestealer
- Faceless Void
- Morphling
- Spectre
- Anti-mage
- Shadow Fiend
- Axe

Maybe the numeral gods are trying to tell me something.
 
A team in the IHs tonight should just pick AM/Furion/Omni/Lich/Huskar from the get go. The mood in the games last night almost seemed pleasant, and it's bothersome.

What?

You mean this isn't what Skeleton King should go for?

I'm being honest, seriously. Though the guide was humoristic in its presentation I fully thought it was a serious build and have been shooting for it every time I play Skeleton King. Was I wrong? :(
 
It is a real build, their point is they're driving the humor into the ground, beating it senseless, waiting for it to reincarnate, and then beating on it again.

It's past horse glue now, it's been horse glue twice over.

that you suck? I already told you that many times
 
Why do some people say Furion? Isn't the ingame name Nature's Prophet? Is that the old DOTA 1 name or whatnot? So confusing. ;_;
Furion is the DOTA name, which is short for Malfurion, which is the name of the character whose model and concept is used for Furion.
