I was going more because you don't move while attacking and you can chase them with it better if you're around the same move speed.

begone heathen, you're war is lost, you're people scattered, you're idealoguegy obliterated
If you are on SF, you power farm like RTZ or you fall behind a lot. Go Midas first like RTZ or don't bother, taking it at 20 after HotD just killed completely his progression, +30 ias +20 damage and some lifesteal for 4000 gold isn't what you need to keep up in a game.
The funny thing is that loda used to do those shit itembuilds all the time while he was in NTH with Envy, and after EE left he started being much more intelligent with them, if not a bit boring (he rarely go for Linken/Skadi/Mjoll as often as RTZ for example).
Mjoll such a sick item right now boys.

That's fair. I will mention that by 'similar' I meant it was about accurate positioning, whereas the difference Envy mentions is that Clinkz goes in and Drow goes out. The two statements don't actually contradict, though I can see the confusion, so I should have been clearer. Your point on forcestaff is valid. I guess benifits of blink are lower cooldown, greater control over where you end up and doesn't break trees so you can escape by blinking into them. Forcestaff is better when they can jump on you to cancel blink though for sure. It's all situational.
Oh yeah but i think he still stops to attack? I don't play jugg in 50 years.
lol didn't notice this was a new page

LD is one of my favorite heroes, he's fun to play. You should play him, but eventually he tapers off once you get higher in MMR. I'm just a little disappointed how well he performs right now in my games, spirit bear use to be something people were intimidated by, but now he's mostly a punching bag to players that are more educated about the game.
Yeah that's true, the hero stop, but i prefer to just spam rightclicks since M is a in a shitty position on the keyboard.

Paid with cc, I'm fine - it was probably a different entry point.
Sniper, like Drow, has ample early/middle game damage... provided they can keep their distance. Which is why people build things like Blink Daggers and Force Staffs on 'em (and Mask of Madness MS is useful for this too). It's of particular importance on Drow, who practically turns into a hero with two skills if she can't maintain her distance. While Blink won't save you from all initiation attempts, it can save you from a lot of 'em.
Hard to call a piece of repositioning kit a fad when it's literally the most cost-effective means to fill a hero gap.

Im really liking Fear's commentary.
I had to chuckle when they were trying to kill him and ld said "envy is too hard to kill" or something
This alliance game was nail biting by the end. That crush on Magnus won them the game so hard.
I agreee with this, to a point. I don't think Sylla can't offlane anymore unless it's against another solo laner or against a dual lane. Bear is simply too valuable now, where before it just wasn't worth the effort to focus the bear, I wish they made the bounty and exp scale with bear level.
Still, Sylla is increadibly strong, you just need your team to apply enough pressure for you to bully one lane and farm it until you get a radiance.

Someone earlier said bot guy is gone, I wonder if that means Juggernaut healing ward having a mind of it's own and chasing you will never get fixed in practice with bots.
Poor Akke , didn't get to use his last minute dagon. That was a pretty awesome game. I missed the first in the series because I was out, is it worth watching?
Speaking of lone druid, is there a reason dark seer can't put ion shell on the spirit bear? There's a lot of heroes that can interact in way more powerful ways with the bear so why no ion shell?

You used to be able to. It was ridiculously broken. Albeit this was before the bear got otherwise nerfed further.

When the bear was OP and killing it gave only like 50 gold or so.
I won't talk about blink on sniper as I don't play that hero, but I'll talk about it on drow ranger.
Drow is my most successful hero, and I received a lot of shit for buying MoM on her 2 years ago.

Now, the only "carry item" you could buy with that gold would be a crystalis or yasha, however, drow at level 7 can kill pretty much any hero with some hits, but you probably won't because any smart enemy will run away from you or cast something to escape.
This is where blink comes in, you can surprise and silence someone (and now that you have blink, you can choose where you'll push the enemy, THIS IS A BIG THING and I hope I don't have to explain why), and that's a kill secured. Levels for drow are way more important early game than farm, she has a lot of damage already.
Blink is a snowball item on her, you waste 2k on it, but you are going to make way more (provided that you know how to abuse it). The silence rework was essential for this to work.
In a way, it's pretty much the same concept of Legion Commander.
How the fuck am I supposed to him M?? I can't use the right side of the keys unless I take my hand off the mouse.

Incredible play by Demon there.
Practice or change it. Very useful for jugg's ward too.
I see a lot of camera control talk going on.... anybody else use the middle mouse click+drag to control their camera? This is exclusively how I move my camera around. If I'm not clicking to last hit or move, my middle mouse is pressed down and I'm moving the camera to see everything. If shit is breaking out farther away, I just click the map. I always see people move the mouse to the edge of the screen and that's just too damn slow and not intuitive to me.
Used to use wasd for camera control and I honestly liked that a lot more, but once I got into assigning control groups I found that I needed to have skills on qwer and groups on 1234.
Also, I've noticed that whenever I timber chain away with timby, he will cast the chain, turn around and attack some random shit, and then zip back if the chain connects. What the hell is up with this? I have auto attack off and I was killed twice last night because my hero decided to turn around after casting chain, walked a little towards an enemy, and I got caught out.

Just remap it to something else.
Or lift your wrist off your keyboard
you neanderthal.
I think inkls does this, or at least he used to. I remember him having pretty good camera control when I was spectating him.
You focused on the almost-homograph flub up when the real problem with that sentence was the use of judicious as an adjective to describe the presence of 2 (!!!) postscripts in a digital transmission. (There is no need for postscripts in a digital communication.)
