Not necessarily. An example of this would something like Luna emerging as a pick during TI5. Before TI5 everyone thought she was trash. Now nobody really thinks she is OP per se, but definitely much stronger than they thought before.

Wasn't her wr below 50%?

And I think she was only picked because:
a) she fitted some early aggression drafts
b) all the other 5 or 6 top picks were picked/banned. I still rarely see her in pubs because this doesn't happen.

If Secret had picked PA for instance nobody would have noticed Luna for the rest of TI.

 

[twobear]

but slark didn't emerge during TI

and he hasn't got a stellar wr in pubs

your fave, SS, also has a favourable wr against him

i think it's time to admit that your problems with slark are with you and not the hero

 

[JC Sera]

I like the 3rd style and mask one.

I would kill for that short hair lina

Hylian your thoughts and opinions on hero balance are unhealthy.

I know you mean well in bringing up discussion about the state of the game and upcoming balance changes.

But holy hell. Give this Slark shit a rest.

Slark got FIFTH PICKED several times, that means he got picked into a team that's not able to deal with him very well, which for a hero like Slark should mean a very good game if he's anywhere near OP, yet he lost those games. If anything, that proves that he's a weak hero unless you're implying that pro carry players can't play a competent Slark, which is nonsense.

This will be my only post regarding Slark.

 

[Sgt.Pepper]

Slark is a decent hero that gets shit on in this age of "everyone has blink, glimmer and over 370 ms".

I guess I won't be sharing my hot new Slark/Windrunner fanfic with you.

I actually think LC is still pretty good. Take her in lane and you can wreck with her.

Hey guys have you heard about how OP slark is?

I really like her in lane but she has a really hard time staying ahead and besides her Q and using her W on teammates she has a terribly hard time doing much in teamfights. Only thing she's good at is the laning phase and picking off players dumb enough to show in lane when they're not with their team, but she can't even use the advantage she gains from those pickoffs into anything meaningful.

and what about the rest of the game

That's about all she does, beyond that it's feast or famine, and usually famine.

More like she was before Icefraud nerfed her Q damage to 60 damage

BAn this sick filth

 

[SilentRacoon]

It has been sometime since my last game and all this talk made me itch for some slark pubs

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

Icefrog is terrified of any hero that he ports over from Dota 2, almost all of the past 5 or so new heroes that got added got nerfed to hell(most deserved it) before getting added to CM.

 

[Heavy's Sandvich]

Dota cinema is slow on the announcer uptake for once

[Kade]

WW more than makes up for them all. Even if she did get nerfed.

I go MoM on slark. It's super good. Better than AC, tbh.

Spoiler

It's pretty bad. I build it when I'm playing low level pubs with my brother or something. Or when I'm clowning around. It's fun as hell.

grats man ! no one can complain about your dedication at least

 

[Demoli]

Techies is the stupidest, most dumbfuck hero in the entire game.

There is not a single techeis game that is enjoyable.

Actually remove the hero holy shit.

 

[SecretMoblin]

congrats hylian!

 

[Drkirby]

So, Puppy/EE Secret Team basically confirmed?

Does Matt have anything to add to our wild speculation?

Are you basing that off the fact that EE said he would have played with RTZ if EG didn't kick Aui? It would have been interesting to see that Secret roster with Puppey, RTZ, and EE.
I assume it would have been EE playing safe and RTZ mid. They would have only needed a 4 and an offlane.

im starting to get quite pissed

Or maybe, Reddit is just sensationalizing stuff?

 

[JC Sera]

tbh if slark is op in anyway, its that if you dont have any specific counters to him, (aoe, aoe stun) hes next to impossible to kill

if you do have counters and kill him early enough hes ineffectual as fuck

Dude clearly wants to be on a relevant team, but he seems to feel he's been dealt a bad hand. Can't say I really disagree.
