Yeah, I mean, Wisp and Treant hurt them badly but the were completely useless even 5v5 because Gyro just had nothing. No items, no real levels, he was worthless..
It's the right attitude, you fight the good fight till your throne dies.
where is the patch volvo

Did a lot of body blocking this game to make sure they didn't kill PA or Invoker. Almost every gank they started on my Dazzle went poorly for them

First time playing Slark, can't land his pounce reliably...any tips on how to land it better?
Stahsky
A passionate embrace, a beautiful memory lingers.
Treat it like a Shadowfiend raze where you have to awkwardly position yourself to land it. It'll shoot you in whatever direction you're facing.

Yeah, I had the same problem when I first tried him. You need to build the reflex of treating it like a reverse targeted spell: instead of hitting the key and then clicking where you want to go, click where you want to go and then hit the key.
Basically always click on the line between you and the target (or where your target is going to be) before activating to ensure you're facing right at them instead of like 20 degrees to the side

Oh man, the game I just lost, had the most farmed bristleback I've ever seen. By the end of the game he had Blademail,Heart,Assault Curass, Vanguard
He had 66% resistance to everything and 4k hp, not to mention all his abilities. He was literally unkillable.

Thanks for the tips...it's the 95 radius that makes it tough..just didn't realize how difficult it would be given how effortlessly I see people land it.
Legion Commander had a serious bug.
The thing that made it difficult for me was that it seems like Slark's height actually matters in whether it will connect. You can do it while standing pretty close to someone, and it'll hit, but if you are like 350 or 400 units away from the person, you'll just sail right over. I still don't have a very good sense of the unit of measure used in this game, so I rarely ever hit the leap.
I am 99% sure this isn't true.
eh i play slark quite a lot, and that never happened to me

vs

Winner gets DK, Loser gets LGD.cn
Orange is fresh of spanking Tong Fu in the Alienware 2-0 - but this mofo is best of 5

Apparently the new BTS courier will track views on any BTS-hosted match for item upgrades. Seems infinitely upgradeable if all they have to do is add items

a hat within a hat. Next thing they would do is add another tracker for the el gato helm to add particle effects.
I also think this is not true as I'm randoming him often and haven't experienced this.

You see, the problem is that
I'll need to find another excuse for why I miss all my leaps then
I'm usually decent at landing Slark leaps, but that's because I take my time lining them up: right-click my target, make sure I'm moving in their direction unobstructed, then leap. I can never land them if I try to do one quickly. What causes horrible misses is if I don't notice a nearby creep, which changes my direction just before I leap - usually at a 90 degree angle from my target. And one time I swear on my life there was absolutely nothing in my path, but Slark decided to make a 180 just before I leapt. Embarrassing, and no idea what caused it.

Should have let that OD carry.
I can play just fine, they just fed the Weaver.

Noticing a growing trend (apart from losing constantly) is that my early game is usually pretty good, then the whole game goes to shit mid to late game, and more often than not team comp is bad, or at the very minimum less optimal than the other team.
I looove picking random because it makes the games fresh until the second before play (plus the $$) but I wondering if I should be waiting and picking for gaps in the team. I'm also afraid doing that will be painful, say I'm the only support and I'm not the linchpin for every team fight and encounter and therefore a 'bad' player. Normally I don't care, but killing a losing streak would be nice.

You can farm just fine, but no map sense and didn't lead in the fights.

Also why do you ulti with Luna and decide to run in the middle of them?
All you are doing is reducing your damage by hitting all targets, you didn't that much AoE. You would have been better off just staying around the edge and having the beams hit 1 or 2.

If you're talking about hte fight I think you are talking about, I wouldn't even have had vision on the 1 or 2 targets, we were fighting it as a team and I had no choice.
