Just play the Invoker sunstrike game and dream about pulling it off in a real game.
Last time I picked Invoker I got rekt mid by Brewmaster.

I'm terrible with my favorite heroes. Puck and Storm Spirit in particular have my favorite skill sets in the game but I can't play them well at all. I usually just mess around with them in bot games because I'd rather not flounder in a real game
We got off to a really bad start so everyone started being jerks to one another and arguing and I told them to be nice but they continued to act like cunts. Then my meepo poof wiped the enemy team and suddenly everyone wants to be friends again and I said fuck you I'm throwing just to teach you assholes a lesson. (I didn't actually though, fuck your bkbs I'll just shovel you down then) Even when I win in this game I still come away angry.

I wish I were better with invoker. I just fall behind when it comes to levels a lot and he's so hard to play when behind in levels.

You play until you are good or get bored trying.

Contrasting emotions
Just bossed a game with Magnus (<3 him)
But....
I lost my cool with a teammate for the first time and shouted at him (through text). His Pudge was a tank and we outlevelled them easily, but the tower setup was balance, both of us down to the ones just outside base (tier 1?)
He and Earthshaker had 2 on 2 fight and took the first guy out with half health each, and Pudge withdrew when they'd have had an easy kill
Also lost it with him when he hooked me away from a one-on-one that I was going to win with ease at the start of a base-push
I assume it was his first Pudge game since he was just using the hook over and over again
Still, shouldn't have lost it like that, we won quite easily in the end and he went 8-4 or something anyway

Maybe the shots just came out bad, but I don't think it looks good in the normal view:
The set seems like it was designed without taking into consideration it would be viewed mostly overhead, since it does look nice if you go into showcase view:
The more you play this game the likelier you are to turn into an asshole.
Can't be helped.
Sets like these don't respect the art direction of Dota 2 imo. Too busy that most of the details are lost in the 3rd person isometric view. I dunno, don't get me wrong, it's very well done but it just looks jarring to me. There are already a lot of sets in the game though that I feel clash with the original style so in the end I don't think it matters much.

I can feel it taking over. I'm still shite, but I told myself when I started that I'd be accomodating to people and keep my cool

I remember when I used to get annoyed by people calling "ez game", now I'm at the point where I actually chuckle whenever someone writes it at the end of a game. Cheeky fuckers.

Dota is the retail industry of games.
Because if they didn't, dota 2 would be this:
first blood
gg team sucks
guy that died disconnected.

Even as QW? I mean it works for QE...but I've never seen midas on QW invoker.
dave is ok
aztek is ok
So I bought Bounchfx's courier in the end. £10. Ten fucking pounds. I had to sell almost all my surplus items to get it, I hope you're happy.
Redpaw? Isn't he like 99 cents on the Market?
Tucker is a flamer idiot, i still have him in mute he's toxic as shit.

Morph + treant pick on enemy team
at the start of the game 'please don't go on morph in teamfights we don't have the burst to kill him, between leech seed, tree armor, mek, str morph and overgrowth he has like 5000 hp
(so many juicy targets for him like lina (who does way more dmg than early/mid game morph) or earthshaker or the tree)
spend 25 mins making space for void so he can get his bkb
finally ready to fight, next 3 teamfights he goes on morph every time...
Morph casts his W on him and it's like a warrior taunt in world of warcraft, instant carry creep aggro
After second teamfight support is being condescending to him saying 'what did we learn in teamfight class today' or something, guy is like 'i'm not an idiot'
next fight? tunnelvision morph
it's painful to lose when you never have a chance

Must be the autographed genuine promo redpaw.

I don't play Invoker, but if you're finding yourself to be underleveled consistency Midas might just solve that problem all by itself. Keep in mind that even though Invoker can afford to get a delayed midas, it can fuck over your team if it's all you have after 20 minutes.

Carty.
I was pretty lucky. I bought a chest with the a autograph and later got a second one since I didn't get my 2 items from it. I was debating on selling it on the market but then opened it and got myself a Carty.

I've been waiting for Carty for AGES. I was rather annoyed that they paywalled him behind RNG.

you bought the genuine quality??? I dont understand why a person would buy genuine over regular quality one. Is there any actual advantage other than "bragging rights" ?
