So I know you have to watch tournament games in order to get effects on your courier but do they have to be live? Can I watch the replays and have it count towards that? Also, is there a tournament pass for the East and West qualifiers? Every time I click the button it gives me an error

Nope, non-live is just as good.

I do not even know what the hell is happening. This has to be the Bebe side effects kicking in, that is the only possible explanation.

I've been trying to play Nature's Prophet and I'm kinda awful at it. It's the first micro and jungler character I'm trying. How do you farm quickly in the jungle? There must be something I'm doing wrong because everyone else is leveling up quicker than me :(. I got a hang on the micro stuff I think. I set up Ctrl + number shortcuts for my treants and that's working well. The issue is that killing anything seems like quite a feat and I die really quickly. Only trying him in bot games so far.

What I usually do is jungle the easy camp as much as possible, along with the mediums nearby. At level 3, i try doingan easy and a hard one per treant summon. You erally can't solo kill anyone until you have a sheep stick/orchid unless you are aware of the map (you should be since his farming is very easy and depends very little atention). I level treants first until lvl 6, then i max tp, getting the alst level of treants at 10. 1 Level of sprout at 4.

If you are on low tier matches, Shadow Blade is very cost efficient and provides a decent escape since no one carries dust there. Otherwise rush Mek/Orchid/Sheep.

Ring of Basilius and two clarities to start. Spawn your first set of Treants at 0:00 as the game starts in the fountain so you regain to full mana, then go and kill the large camp (spawn a second set of Treants if necessary), then take out the small camp. Micro your Treants away so they are no longer attacked, then back in when they get to about 50% health so you distribute the damage evenly and always have as many Treants as possible alive and attacking.

Buy Gloves of Haste as soon as you can for Hand of Midas. Midas will help you catch up even if you're a little behind.

Pay attention to the rest of the map while you're farming. If you see an opportunity for a kill, be sure to teleport in and make it happen. You can quickly change a fight around, especially early on.

Aw hell nah wtf happened here.

Representative of the D', come home to see,
this dota nerd rap atrocity.
Ain't no one got rhythm, no one got prose,
Anbokr, you dont have an ounce of black from your head to your toes.
Come in this thread trying to spit, nothing comin out but semen.
Probably mad jealous cuz you're smaller then Demon.
Taking all those Roman classes cuz you lust for oiled men
Stop with all the 'your mom' shit, no need to pretend.

And speaking of jokes, we got exhibit B
The one and only Alex B-RAD lee.
Queues with Rumblebuffin so he can stomp some losers
But loses every real match; call him Captain Dunning Krugers.
Makes all that government money, but won't leave his parents' pad.
Probably cuz his lips are attached to his dad.
Throw so hard it's like I'm playing with Ryan
Always in the wrong position cryin' and dyin'.
Wont take criticism cuz he goes godlike vs bots
Badmouths all the pubs cuz that's all he's got.

Milk trying to rap, so people think that he's black.
Can only win against baddies in inhouses, what a hack.
Having his way with hylian mid like a blow-up doll,
what's next? Gonna feed him an iron mouse ball?
All of DotaGAF loves him, they chant 'Praise the OP!'
While he's abusing bugs on em, like some kind of dota bully.

I'm done with this shit, come back when ya'll fix your game
Dunkin' on you fools like I'm Lebron James
Can't rap since you're all as white as Elmer's glue
Should probably stick to playing Dota 2.

Thank you for your advice. I will try that in my next game.

You have to watch International live games or replays to get +1s on your compendium courier.
 
SO I'm learning Invoker. First game I played with him ever was an all random tonight, thought fuck it, why not. Dominated, then died a few times picking up the odd kill here and there. Our team was horrible versus them (Wisp with no-one ot go with and a Morphling who's never played Morphling before), but half way through it looked like a win. We ended up losing, but it made me realise how much I like Invoker.

With a few more bot matches I'm starting to remember the combos, and I think starting with the spirits and cold snap is a good combo in lane.
