sputum-flecked apoplexy
does anyone feel like pro dota at the moment doesn't really have 'big plays'? i feel like it's all about individual players/heroes more than slaying the coordination.

dota as a game only has two possible victory paths. 1 u turtle in a deficit and eventually u win th egame with spuerior lat egame. 2 u steamroll so hard that u just outright iwn the game without contest from the other team.

I built a diffusal blade on gyro and it was fun. People just cannot get away from rocket barrage unless a force staff is in play and nearby.

I built one vs. Omniknight and it worked well:

Built one on Bloodseeker against another Omni too:

3k Omnis never seen that coming. Oftentimes, I feel they didn't know about the interaction in the first place and have actually no idea what's happening even after I purge their shti time and time again. Pretty sure both Omnis just kept repelling themselves while running away from me to no avail. Other than maybe waste my charges I suppose.

I also had 770 GPM 8:30 minutes into the game in that Bloodseeker game.

Do you think an enemy Wraith King justifies a diffusal blade purchase? I've tried it a few times and I find it just doesn't drain enough mana to stop his ult popping off.

I mean on any hero btw, not just on gyro.

I have the same experience. In my games, he usually died before I drained enough mana with Diffusal Blade to prevent his ult. I suppose it could work with Windrunner and Troll however. Necronomicon works pretty well because the two necros don't hit hard enough to kill him while draining his mana.

It probably depends though. Back when WK was picked in pro games, people didn't get Diffusal Blades on their heroes to counter pick because there were better choices and I think that's still the case.

I once muted Pro because his mic was giving me cancer and then forgot to unmute him for months. I thought he just stop talking and became a silent burglar for stealing other people's dogs.

just wait until (if) u lose m8... o god ur european too, elitro w/e u do do not say 1.09 three times into a mirror for ur own safety

Oh yeah Pro talks and gets pissed when no one else talks

Also there are three ways to summon the other procarbine... depressedcarbine:
-Lose a lot of dota games while not talking (or set him up to feed like playing CM/SD against a storm or timber against silencer); alternatively, force him to play KOTL
-Play the map "Overpass" in CS:GO
-It's rumored that if you say 'depressedcarbine' three times into a mirror he will come... it will begin to rain...and then a small white ginger boy with a joisey accent will whisper dispiriting things into every crevice of your body


pLS help me sixeightfivenobi u are my only hope

wtf cobble is ownage, but seriously if u don't wanna play it again just find 1 or 2 other people in mumble that don't like cobble then loudly proclaim how much you hate cobble everytime we inhouse on cobble so we never inhouse on cobble again, and so you make everyone else feel bad for enjoying cobble. then you have your very own anti-competitive map X union. you're welcome. freakinchair and i have already started the mirage group we are just looking for 1 more member before banning mirage forever

Depressedcarbine in real life hugged BZM. This hug was so empty it caused BZM to disappear from mumble, GAF, and the Real World: Denver.
