Competitive hero tier list for May.

thank god icefrog nerfed that nasty PL for comp-erm
pub
reasons.

Dark Seer the only tier 1 hero to escape a reasonable nerf. Fuck that guy.

G1 tells me that Gyro is a horribly designed hero, inferior on lan to carries that need you to play the game, but better online when any form of lag affects you.

Seems like there's a shit ton of underrated heroes in tier 4 as well and a few in tier 5.

edit: oh yeah, and #nerfpl
 
Ugh, I didn't know you could suck as badly as this Bloodseeker.

Those two kills he has? He got those in like the last ten minutes of the game. I managed to hold off the entire enemy team just about single handedly for like twenty minutes with all of our Tier 3s down but none of our raxes lost, but we just couldn't make any kind of counterpush because our other major damage dealer was, well, shit.

Oh, and only Centaur and I spoke english. So co-ordinating anything was basically impossible.
 
Said it before a few or more pages back. Witch Doctor is very underrated. I am playing him a lot lately and he is damn good when you do not get stomped in team fights since he is a primary target. But damn i really like playing that hero more should try him.

Quick buff CM's mana regen and her attack speed slow on Aghs! That'll solve her problems!

Also really sad to see DP not pick at all. She definitely isnt that bad.
 
Speaking of which, do you think Centaur will become a thing in 6.78?

Synderen was saying that he'd be a good 4 and bff with Shadow Demon.

Well frankly everyone is bffs with Shadow Demon. He'll set up and save you in equal measure.
 
Dude, you got scammed. Banner is worth a shitload. Highest ive seen it sold for is 1 key.
If you know who you traded with name and shame

He was a russian dude and now i can't find him on my friendlist, he may have deleted me or something, i wish there was a way to check the people you have traded with. Whatever, tough the items i did get were pretty shitty now that i think about it lol

Played one round of naga siren, it was pretty cool except for losing the match

There is, go to your inventory > inventory history.
 
Isn't it wonderful when you get a guy that calls out every decision you make, calls you bad, etc, and then makes a lane choice that lost the game and feeds constantly.
 
Really shit luck for me today. After 225 matches with zero abandons, I had power failures in 2 consecutive games. Now I'm sitting with 2 abandons to my name.

Can someone tell me if this can push me into low priority? Is there any consolidated information about how low priority even works? I tried googling for it but I can't seem to find any concrete information about how or when you can get thrown into low priority and if you can ever claw back out of it or how long it lasts or anything really. Someone help please.

I got two abandons the other day due to computer failures and I'm not in Low Priority I don't think. Although every game since they may have involved matchmaking with friends...

You'll know if you're in LPQ. There's a red message above the world map during matchmaking that tells you.

Two abandons close together often gets you put in LPQ for 24 hours.
 
As a support, I has to use the carrier to bring me the wards constantly right?

My main problem is, that in noob matches, others players use my carry, changing my plans at time, don't know what to do

If you had it first, and it was almost to you and they jacked it for not much of a good reason, just recall it to you.

It really comes down to people just getting better about knowing when and when it's not okay to tie up the courier. Some people will be dicks about it regardless. There was a time I was on offlane and needed some wards, the courier was almost to me, and the Lifestealer in the jungle jacks it, I try to take it back and he says "I AM JUNGLING FAGGOT", drops my wards back in the stash, and gets his stupid Glove. I was wardless for a long time because of him.

There is go to inventory, then inventory history

Wait for them to finish and then reuse it while it's on the way back.
 
His vaccum cd got increased.

22s to 24s vacuum is a joke nerf equivalent to the -5% cleave on sven. DS has been a first ban/pick hero for what... 2 years now? Icefraud must really like that cunt hero.

Yeah honestly the perfect nerf. Wont affect him high lvl but will satisfy bad normal players

We'll see, it's not a minor nerf by any means. While most of PL's damage against heroes comes from diffusal blade, this will slow down his farming and split push a tad.

This. Most noobs just click the courier button and forget and remember 10 minutes later that they don't have their item.
 
I like having the Compendium because when the game starts and people get a 25% bonus they say thanks :D

surprisingly few people have them though, maybe because I'm in the lower brackets
