Mini pudge courier is underwhelming. The alternate skins better be bikini or schoolgirl themed

It looks like Pudge? What were you expecting? It's also been in the files for years.
Pretty much, top 4 are all heroes with heals, immunity and/or revives and the average pubber has trouble dealing with that stuff. With these pub winrates we have to keep in mind that 99% of people are playing below a low 4k MMR.

Shut him down early or pair Naga/Sven with something like an ES. I'd imagine a Void or AM with good farm could probably handle him as well. Hell, a well enough farmed PA with a Battlefury could probably do the job as well.
The problem is most people think buying detection and killing PL early is a waste. WRONG. The money you spend on Dust or Sentries denies him substantially more farm and levels. He's elusive, but not unkillable. He manages to do especially well in situations where co-ordination is low like Pubs.

He farts rot to stay flying or like idle animations where he eats his own entrails

I think "sustainey" heroes tend to have inflated win rates in most patches. I thought it was something to do with the way people in pubs are fond of just 5 manning down one lane after another the whole game so being able to keep a push going is pretty useful.
Another weird thing I noticed in dotabuff is the high overall win rate of arcane boots compared to other boot choices, even on some pretty weird heroes like Juggernaut and Chaos Knight, which could be for the same reason.

Are we talking about pro games or pubs?
He needs way too many items to be useful.
Mek+Dagon and you're golden.

those are all heroes that heavily punish overaggression, which is rampant in all kinds of pub level.
Abaddon is legit broke though
I don´t get why all of you think Necro is so weak. With bottle crow you can spam the lane into the others face while farming the jungle camps. In teamfights you have one guranteed kill almost every time. Said kill is dead for ages and can´t buyout anymore when you got the scepter.
The longer death time alone is super strong and annoying.

Maybe he's just dying a heap and alt-tabbing?

Have any of you been able to play custom games yet on d2modd? Shit is still down 
.
.Well that's the first time I've had my team call me an asshole for trying to finish a game when we're stomping and the other team's Ancient is open. People who want to stretch games like that out are jerks. They weren't even spawn camping. They just wanted to farm our jungle more.

Hmm watch Alliance or Mouz v Rox.Kis? Hard decisions.
Not much happening on the IG x Alliance game other than heavy farming.

That's probably what S4 just sent on the chat wheel.

Ugh what a boring predictable game
That's what happens when you let Anti-Mage farm.

Abaddon is the enabler of pure aggression. Fun hero.

Necro is a beast with the auras. So much damage just being in the area for teamfights. I've finished off hero's by just chasing them.
The auras also are good against hero's with illusions from what I've experienced. Spamming his spell along with the auras and the opponents with illusions fade away.

Earth Spirit actually had a relatively low WR because he requires skill.
