Today is CIS drama day. I liked the Empire lineup as well
.Team Empire drops Scandal from their Dota 2 lineup, replaces him with Resolut1on
And that change was for the better ( best ? grammarGAF help me ! ) as it has been proven for the few past few month.

It has to do with whether you're comparing it (the changes) to something else or not, in this case 'the better' would be used.
Pretty sure that's right.
I think this is my favorite clause ever read.
Speaking of HoN, Bruno and Pyrion were shocked to find out Hellflower silenced item use too during a DreamLeague cast today.

The fact that the game is still growing, servers are stable and the partners are happy. Yes.
The big update that is coming will make you appreciate the new setup, trust me.
& Resolut1on ends up on Empire.

And I mean that in an 'OMG OMG SO EXCITED' bouncing around like a little girl way, not a 'wtf Valve you lazy shits you never update this game jesus christ' way, so don't feel like I'm attacking Valve or anything.

Yeah. Couldn't connect to a CS:GO server even though it said people were there. Then I logged on to Dota and found a match, but after readying up it wouldn't let me connect to the game. So I'm pretty sure I got an abandon. Frustrating.
All this Sniper talk got me fired up to play some Sniper games.
First game I rolled with a godlike streak. They didn't have many gap closing heroes except for Sand King but we had Spirit Breaker as well to keep them occupied while I did my thing.
Second game, I am like "I got dis shit!" and first pick Sniper. Other team responds with Bounty Hunter, Nyx, Life Stealer and Templar Assassin picks...
Yeah that went about as well as expected. Lifestealer got fed with the Naix/Nyx bomb and BH was feeding them track kills in the process. Match ended up being closer than expected because they sort of got cocky and went into detection but the snowball was just too much and the composition straight up owned Sniper.

That is the Orchid equivalent, right? That sounds like a Scythe without the slow! It seems incredibly OP. I couldn't imagine how ridiculous it would be on the Storm Spirit equivalent.
Speaking of Storm, I have really gotten good at that hero. I'm really a big fan of the Bottle > Treads > Orchid > Scythe (BKB before Scythe if you need it). Really gives you more utility and burst potential than Arcanes > Bloodstone does. You really have to be careful with how you use Ball Lightning though.

Ah. Feels like Monday because of the holiday. -_-
Good thing I finished my download of the BioShock Infinite DLC a while ago.
Does that 4gb patch give me anything without the expansion?Hope so
Not sure tbh, I'm actually buying the original version and the expansion. I had EU for 360 but I loved it and wanted to support the developers(as well as play the expansion) so I just binged and bought both.
When are you going to make a new team milk? Or at least play some NEL for us.

yo milk vouch for me so i can get in on some nel
Won't he get a ton of warns when you feed and get unvouchecd mid game?
Maybe sometime this year possibly maybe kinda idk. Been talking on and off with KvH about a new team but I don't have much time this year because I'm working on my teaching credentials. So I'm a dirty casual right now who prefers to beat up on Tswiftx and Procarbine in inhouses. But I'd love to go semi-pro again eventually.
Me too, I never really had problems but already had a loss last week thanks to being kicked out the game and not being able to reconnect. Has happened once more that I was kicked out and had to reconnect this week as well, luckily I could and didn't get an auto loss that time.
Friend of mine had it as well a few times. Seems to be getting worse :/
yeh hes pretty free
How about getting into a ticketed Nel match for us to watch sometime?
What teaching are you getting into?

Hoping for diretide this week, I'm legit excited to see what new changes they've made to the mode.

I keep feeling that getting MS items on Sniper is way better than getting a Shadow Blade on him. He's one of my worst heroes (in terms of winrate over the minimum 5 matches at least).
And the MS stack has worked better for me than the typical Treads/Shadowblade build.
Really hoping they remove the Etheral/Dagon on Rosh. Made it too boring.

I'm hoping they add in the mini bosses and the items that would replace runes that were single use version of abilities like hook and arrow that were scraped last year for time.

What do you do if the enemy takes Pugna, Natures Prophet and then Medusa? What stage of the game do you have then?
EDIT: Scratch that, the real question is "how do you stop a good Meepo player when Sand King isn't in the pool?"

I knew that, but Poof wasn't hurting the other two.
