Tinker doesn't even have cosmetics yet, WTF.

Switching games.

Spoiler

Do Blizzard really think Tinker is a draw? Why even model a hero on that WC3 unit

It's likely going to be a few weeks, his traps and bombs are clearly wip designs.

Why you guys hate fun designs? Only want super serious Tolkien nerdy ass Warhammer bullshit.

Shadow fiend gets ganked a bunch of times, Tidehunter rages and starts spamming pings on him for the first 15 minutes, both pretty much give up but thanks to the disruptor we stay in the game and prevail at the end.

what is it that makes doom so much more prevalent now in the current meta than in the past? He has literally been untouched since I started playing(around TI3 but I didnt even know what TI3 was and thought the green colors were weird) aside from I think something done to his q that I think was reworking the mana use. He has been a viable choice since I started watching competitive dota 2 but it seems like now hes an essential pick. Where before he was more of a "maybe if" pick.

He's hard to punish especially how popular greedy junglers are (Enigma). Doom is such a good spell and he will almost never be behind due to Devour.

WAT

 

[Acinixys]

Fuck EG. I hope Mason's blog puts them on full blast.

I take it his "retirement" is some kind of BS to allow Fear back?

I await his blog to hear the truth

Do you guys think zai can carry the team?

Hold on

Theyre kicking Mason, making Zai #1 and then hiring a new support player? What the actual fuck

 

[Thermite]

Fuck EG. I hope Mason's blog puts them on full blast.

DEETS

 

[Chris R]

Fucking terrible players need to not queue MMR. Gyro went bottle -> boots -> AGHS (30 min)

Needless to say we lost in 38 mins. Gyro had 53 last hits mid. FML there goes all the MMR I worked hard to earn today

edit: Was the Bandits pic posted yet?

Oh boy.

Are you implying Zai will replace Mason, with someone coming in as a support? Just wanna be sure here.

Unfortunately not.

Yeah, most of them are really ugly. I don't mind Dota skins though, I like them. I only dislike the inconsistency in quality and art design across all the items since Valve doesn't have a strict guideline like they do with TF2 but we saw how "strict" that ended up being.

I think zai could play the safe lane carry, I think it's a waste of talent though. I feel in the meta we have had the last few years the #1 is actually one of the least important roles.

Funny thing is Mason almost never played your traditional #1 spot. That spot is reserved for Arteezy. Mason gets some really shitty lanes sometimes to allow Zai/PPD to get space and farm. It's kinda like what EE and Aui do, except not to the same extent.

Also Einbroch can you drop any more hints? Is Fear coming back? R THEY GETTING PUPPEY TO JOIN EG

 

[Einbroch]

EE to EG as #4.

YYF is retiring

http://t.qq.com/p/t/419258065742467

From LGD in 2010 to iG now, 4 years of professional gaming career has led me through all aspects of life. There is sadness after losing, happiness after winning TI2. These 4 years are not perfect enough, but neither do I have any regrets. Thanks to the company of my teammates, and the support from my fans. Retirement is the end, but it's also a new beginning. I will still pursue my next objective in the gaming scene, hope to receive support from everyone.

[SteveWinwood]

i heard rtz got sent off to his family farm in uzbekistan and that yajirobefromDC will replace him, only rumors though, don't quote me on this

I could believe it, envy seemed like he was better on nth as a support then a carry

 

[Technosteve]

Feeding as a support is different then feeding as a carry, I liked his support play style. Constant roaming ganks, constant pressure on the other team's carry.

AW YIZZ back from my 2 months ban

 

[Ketch]

I wouldn't mind zai playing carry and then a fear/ppd support combo... Two of the smartest dota minds directing traffic.

Edit: wait.... What?

If envy goes to EG then what happens to fear? C9.FEAR? He has a history of playing in multinational teams....

And maybe you say fuck EG because they're giving fear the shaft after he stuck by them as a coach under the impression he'll get his spot back once mason takes off.
