viper counts also as a safelane carry. Remember our support sven game
You mean when your 'support' sven had the highest gpm on our team
Gotta get that micro in early while they still learnin'.

I hope chen gets a slight buff, make his creeps stronger or make his slow mini stun or something.

Actually I was very wrong about the highest gpm, my bad.
Anyway, isn't support sven sorta kinda legit, in a support wraith king/alchemist kind of way? Great stun and good teamwide armor and movespeed buff, plus cleave to farm faster lategame and get some items in.

Important lesson to be learned here: don't add people who have private profiles and have no friends who you associate with on Steam, whom you've never met before (say in a pub game or something).
Don't do it. I ignore every single request like those because 99% of the time they're either trolls attempting to get things for little/nothing or outright scam artists attempting to phish or run some sort of con.
If you want to give strangers the opportunity to send you trade offers, you can set that up right in your profile description. For example: http://steamcommunity.com/tradeoffer/new/?partner=35432416&token=Bj_wTpF9
-Go to your inventory.
-Click on the Trade Offers button.
-Click on the "Who can send me trade offers?" link in the right nav bar.
-Scroll down to the "Third Party Sites" section and copy & paste the URL into your profile.

That's enough drama for one night.
Well you can't say that and not.
Yeah I know I'm gonna follow this rule from now on. I usually don't accept random requests but I had a bunch and I wasn't sure if it was someone I might know. I definitely won't be trading through random requests again that's for sure.

wraith king for a beginner? he's super easy to play but no newb is going to farm a blink dagger on him... so he'll just get kited all game long and have no fun at all.
Sniper is terrible for beginners, you need to be good at positioning and have good map awareness, you are out of position = you are food, beginner sniper pickers have a terrible winrate on that hero
bristle needs a good time in lane and a good start to not suck dick midgame, if you die a few times early on him you can't do anything, he can be fun though.
Picking a lane crushing hero that doesn't need a large amount of farm sounds better for a new player:
Viper : might help him understand how creep aggro and orbs attacks work, easy to play, doesn't need massive farm
centaur: ez fun ult, stomp double edge, super tanky, even without blink you can blunder about and feel like you're doing something
razor: press r , link any enemy (preferably a carry
) right click stuff, press q when they run away (newbies will press q in melee range but w/e)It's easy build a racecar build on him which is always fun for anyone , and works really well in low level pubs
or just easy to have fun on heroes :
zeus: easy last hits with q, ult to kill secure
Always a newbie favoritenyx: invis and 2 stuns and ganks without items, go into enemy territory like a ninja and feel like a hunter
shadow shaman: serpent wards to help newbies push towers, learn to appreciate how powerful hexes are (though new players won't level it early
) , even if you play terribly you can feel like you accomplish something with the ultDreams-Visions

Just add a trade link via instructions above. That way you can still entertain trade offers without having to add anyone.

I know what happened but I don't know what the intention was behind that. Wisp looked like deliberately untethering him.
Ah I see lol. Someone should remake those pics for the next OT tbh. Really need to help newer players get a start if they prefer reading rather then asking in the thread.
Print screen already gave you the link for the game but its mostly a joke tbh. We were playing random draft and I was last pick and I wanted to counter the meepo pick and I acted pretty bad mannered and picked sven when we already had carries. So we decided to play him as a support sven. Essentially got some xp from pulling with rubick and just denying in lane. We got first blood by stacking stuns so our safelane went pretty well, but I didn't know what to build on a support sven so I just got my boots and mask of madness and farmed in the jungle for a major part of the game since from what I saw my team could handle teamfights without me so i was able to get a bkb and a Crystalys so i was able to make a good contribution into the later teamfights (getting a triple kill from rightclicking a single target feels so good).
So we were kind of joking about "support sven" the whole game because I was farming and ended with the highest last hits on our team. It was still pretty bad mannered for me to pick him tho.

What is Meepo doing on that easy heroes to play list?
Ikuu calling people out on micro skills is like Hylian7 complaining about other players on their lack of map awareness.
He's a racist cunt so him being a scumbag too is not to far fetched.
Doooo it, dooo it. I believe it.
that's not LD or lumi

Looks like this thread just got linked on reddit over Matt's comments

Reddit so horny for Dota drama. We need techies to make it all go away.
Gotta get that karma.

With entertaining personalities? There's always sunsfan, refleksy and pyrionflax for that.I'd love a trench league heroes strim
Its kinda why I was happy neogaf skipped the "like comments" craze. Not really a fan and some people will just post about anything to farm/get likes or in this case upvotes.
Its not all one sided tho, theres some pretty good stuff in there.
