I really like playing Puck, but I don't play it nearly enough to have down the reflexes I should on Phase Shift, so I end up not getting that much utility out of it.

So what are you guys doing with your player cards? I got 6 of them but Im not sure if I want to stamp them before I know what the rewards would be and how valuable they are. Then again theres still a month for these cards to drop so playing regularly Ill probably end up with like 25 of them
Seems like you want to get full teams so maybe it makes sense to trade them first to get a full set

When I couldn't sell them on the steam market, I just stamped 'em. I got dendi as my first drop, he better not have been worth like $12.
Ah right, your 240p laptop.
Of course you couldn't see TA's tits.
I bet your dick was so confused.

I'm looking for Pajkatt and 1437 to finish LGD.int if anyone has them.
When you'll get good, you wont stick to 1 hero anyway.
In my beginnings I played more than 250 games with sand king alone... and now I almost never pick him. I have a stable of about 25/30 heroes that I can play pretty good at any time, and I'm always learning 1 or 2 new ones whenever I can.
God I'm having the worst fucking day in this game today.
I just had the worst Luna game ever where I was in lane with a Dazzle against a Tiny and Lina, we did absolutely nothing and they always managed to land a Lina stun on me and I was dead from there every fucking time. Couldn't get any farm. (It's still going)

Played hard carry midas Juggernaught yesterday.
Worked out pretty well
wait wut
My highest XPM is Jakiro with almost 800
How the shit did that happen?
Oh. Went 16/1/24 and was building a divine. lol
Some melee characters are tough. Have you tried Tusk or Elder Titan? They're beefier than most.
Low blows in here.

Both less manly than Axe.
All day today I have been asking myself the same question.

Streaming and trying to actually win a game. I just had a TA game that I did okay in but we lost because our PA had no farm, and I can't compete with a QoP for runes for ganks.

Axe is the manliest of red men, but he's not exactly easy.
long story short, once i had a 20 games lead then dota took it away and i started winning again when i was 2 wins ahead, bounced back to 23 games lead, im back at 16. dota please dont take it away again!!!!!
also ive hit a point where when im suppor y buy ward, deward, stack camps, you know being a good support yet the carries play game of throws.
ok so i choose to play carry and i dont get any of those. why would you go for dagon 5 instead of hex, what is 400 burst gonna do against a super tanky hero like brstle ugh. fuck puck dagon
play in stacks i guess. still i usually play with one other friend and well 2 isnt normally good enough.
High bracket gaf recruit me! (ive checked my some of my matches and when i play in higher bracket games i have a much better win rate, than when i play normal bracket matches.)

What are your item timings looking like? Lycan was heavily nerfed for jungling so it is a bit on the slow side.

When did Vlad's/Shiva's Doom get popular? Is it purely for the armour stack?
EDIT: oh the aura stack as well. I guess Vlad's/AC would work too

I'm not even sure on the timings..like..14 minutes or so for a vlad? That's just a guess, it also didn't help that the pudge on our team was super amazing, so we gg'd in about 20 minutes or so, lol.
I didn't know he was nerfed, should I lane instead then? Or still try to jungle?

Need advice...

I know I fucked up hard in this match (fed nyx blindly teleported in to defend and died etc)...but I'm not sure how to approach the midgame in this case...what items should I have built? etc? I'm kinda confused about NP itemization in general (I know he's not super hard but should I have gone sheep earlier?)

Level 1 jungle lycan is 100% trash
Lane till lvl 4 or 5, so you can get lvl 2 or 3 wolves
Then jungle. You should have the basics required for the jungle by then
kk, ill do that!
Also what's a good K/D/A for support?
Just went 2/7/6 as Venomancer..I need more practice definitely, but i didn't know if that was a bad start or not. I know supports arent about the kills really.

It is like Drow is wearing a female Nightstalker suit. I don't like it at all.

Anuxi, I think this is going to be another one of your polarising sets.
Looks awesome but the hat is weird. :/
If your deaths/kills are even and you have over 20 assists youre doing good
Just played a game as Warlock. Went 11/11/27

Yeah but my sets are like that so I don't mind haha
Man I need to have a pop at warlock. People keep telling me to play him as a support but I'm too addicted to veno right now. And Venge, I like Venge
This armor is just awesome.
Maiev is a woman. But I do think according to wc lore that she had some lesbian tendencies?

Warlock is somewhat boring I feel. Insanely powerfull and equally easy to play.

Is that Drow wearing a dead Greevil for a hat?
I really like this set. Neat idea.

Yeah someone said I just spam fatal bonds and use R in teamfights. Sounds super fun
I need to work on my positioning more. I played a game last night with veno and got something like 14 kills, 9 in the first 15 minutes so the other team was really farmed on me. I then started paying way more attention to where I was positioned in teamfights, Even though our omni knight left us at 23 minutes, we went on to defeat the opposing team thanks to jungle stacks and a very farmed Naix.
Shit, positioning is something I don't pay enough respect to, but should.
Im gonna play so much doto tomorrow!
