Death Prophet is such a well presented hero, Voice matches the look perfectly, as well as lines.

Probably my favorite hero now.
 
Go on a team with all people using mics and people will threat you with respect. 90% of people are gutless wonders behind a keyboard and dont have the balls to start fights over a mic.

Also a fact, most people who talk trash tend to suck.
 
810 Range for Q, I always laugh a bit about these super specif amounts.

Also, one of the Valve Developers sounds like his is planing on putting in an option that would allow you to spectate a practice at a 10-15 second delay (Says the director needs a 10 second delay to work)

This is so true, actually today I was in a game that I didn't do to well in, so a guy was talking so much crap, next game comes up and hes on the opposite team, I laned against him and went 12-2 and he did pretty bad, shut him right up, best feeling.

She's a lot of fun to play. Low cooldowns. Good silence. Good AOE damage. Decent pusher, good sustain. Totally stomped the other team in a game with her and went 11/0/12.
 
Those guys were really good, especially the pudge. He even tried to hook as I was going to defend the barracks from fountain, pretty sure he didn't have LOS to me at that point.

Didn't really like CM though. Since she is apparently only good for her aura and stun, I didn't feel like I could do much compared to some other supports. Also, her AA is terrible.
 
Dagger VS can be mad fun. Swap someone, port back to the enemy, stun him and you just picked someone off.

If all fails, just build her as a support. Mek, wards, courier, force staff and eul's if luxury.
 
You can't buy dagger on VS.

VS is pretty easy to play, just get treads, bracer (build into drum)/urn, wards and then build stuff like Mek/Medallion (especially if someone has Linkens). Aga is amazing if you can build it, but I've only managed it once and it was a complete stomp.
 
I hope they eventually implement the terrain walking trigger HoN has.

Unless some diehard purists yell "BUT WHAT ABOUT FORCE STAFFING PEOPLE INTO UNPATHABLE TERRAIN OMG SKILL".
 
First time Sand King and i went 6-1-20

I went Arcade boots, Blink Dagger, Scepter and made it to a Heart. We where something like 11-43 at the end.

Maybe they will change it when they finish establishing the base game from dota 1.
 
urn is really good on vs if no one else on your team gets it. mek is okay, but it's really only used to sustain on vs because she dies in the first couple of seconds. medallion of courage is also good. that, and lots of wards. I'd go jango after a medallion/urn.
 
Dota 2 Star Championship!

First game just ended and second game is coming up. Second group stages going on.

First game was Team Shakira vs MouseSports
Winner:
Team Shakira

Team Shakira Vs The Retry (pgg+4) coming up in 30 minutes (or a bit less, according to Tobi)
 
^Ended up being quite a boring match since it was 1h 2minutes long and mostly just farming for stronger and stronger items. Wouldn't recommend the VOD.
 
AM is so getting nerfed soon, he went 9-1 at SMM also.

I wonder if giving him a normal BAT (1.7) would be a good idea.
Or do we really need any fix? Just add a third ban, eventually you won't need to ban him when all the old heroes are added again.

He dominated at SMM (DotA 1) so it's not just a Dota2 thing.

I really think that's a bit too small of sample size from DotA 1 to say very much. We already knew that he was strong back then, but he has still been fine in his current state for a long time.
 
Mouz vs The Retry beginning shortly, players joining the game right now. Tobi just said it's a couple of minutes away.

Huzzah, Synderen's co-casting! Mildly less irritated about waking up at 3 AM for no apparent reason.
Synderen being a clueless leech at the moment. :P He's good once the game starts.
 
Aw, sad that this week's hero is Krob. I always found her so dull in DotA. Still itching for Phantom Lancer, that guy is a friggin' blast to play.
 
Methinks it's sound to give the Aegis to Mirana. TR has to put everything on Drow, but mouz are spreading their dependence between Anti-mage and Mirana. Makes it harder to focus one hero down and turn a teamfight around.

Defense and offense in depth, basically.
 
If you're interested in some DotA 1 action from iG @ SMM


Wasn't that bad. I think the bigger problem was that they just gave the whole mid game away, even though they could have easily been ahead. They played awfully for a while.

well yea but they could have gotten much better heroes. Lich was useless since the two most important heroes could just jump away and Lion would have been a much better pick instead of CM. But I do agree it was winnable for them they just didnt take advantage of their lead
