Illusion runes

 

[shira]

I kinda want c9 to win this one and then level 1 rosh game 3.

 

[Technosteve]

Pieliedie needs to be cut from the team

 

[Drkirby]

Helm of the Dominator can help with techies too. Creep to trip land mines and more armor.

You can use manta illusions too.

TA
Zues
...Visage with cloak on and not too many mines early?
Lycan for invis scouting / mine boom. Actually doesn't the 80% res make them super OP? That's like 81% dmg resistance with that 1 armor.

So far techies on my team = they are horrible
Enemy techies = counter pick to win

 

[Radec]

I always want an enemy techies.

It's like a 5v4 game. Especially those who didn't play dota 1.

Easy wins.

Any decent techies is hiding their bombs from common ward spots: uphill, no vision paths, ledges.

I would put tree killers like timbersaw/enigma/furion/quelling blade in there too

I've lost pretty much every game except two with a Techies on my team.

Spoiler

Plot twist: I was the Techies

 

[Zeth]

Wait so WEC isn't over yet? Holy shit I figured I'd miss the whole thing.

 

[Randdalf]

EG have the womboest combo

 

[Drkirby]

So did EG win game 4?

 

[Shorty11857]

EG are 1 up, so at least one more game to go

 

[Randdalf]

Score at the top is wrong, whoever's creating the lobbies for this tournament has been either forgetting to put the score or putting the wrong score up the entire tournament.

tweest C9 won

 

[Radec]

lol clown9.

This is so gg.

 

[bbd23]

this is over

 

[BigAT]

I stepped away for a moment after FATA got first blood, come back a couple of minutes later and EG has 6 towers down and 7-4 lead. WTF happened?

EG have 5-ish pushing heroes, insane early team fight and Cloud 9 have nothing to stop it.

See: Na`Vi vs EG Game 2

 

[datruth29]

God DAYUM that was a stomp

 

[BigAT]

What was Envy thinking trying to build a battlefury against a team that was so obviously going to push/fight immediately?

 

[Zeth]

TAKE THAT CHINA

 

[shira]

SHREKT

 

[JustinBB7]

Happy for Fear winning a big Lan. The only other one he won was D2L in that las vegas shit show right.

 

[Technosteve]

Fear drafts all the push heros wins in 13 minutes

 

[datruth29]

Fear drafts all the push heros wins in 13 minutes

Isn't PPD the drafter for EG?

 

[Randdalf]

PPD outdrafted Envy throughout that final, I don't know how well EG would do without him!

 

[Drkirby]

C9 got recked

 

[Anno]

So EG only drop 1 map after falling to the LB, that clowny all-core pub game with the last pick Warlock. Great run with some neat drafting and just a crazy amount of flexibility. I loved watching almost all of their games, especially Fear on the Shadow Shaman.

Hope there's another post-tournament melodramatic EE interview.

Poor guy.

Poor guy.

I hope Loda gets to do the interview

 

[LiQuid!]

EE is such a shit. I'm so happy he finished 2nd place again.

 

[Poetic.Injustice]

Why the fuck does the game keep crashing after the intro screen?

Happened to me after last update. Verified cache and reacquiring file fixed it.

 

[The_Hitcher89]

My first game as Legion Commander

Probably my favourite hero already. Only Spirit Breaker was giving me a big problem with the knockbacks

 

[Anno]

And Jaedong took first at SC2? EG getting paid here.

 

[Wok]

SlasherSlahser is amazing. His guide let me play Medusa the way it should. A 20 min Roshan immediately followed by Rapier and then a 24 min end game.

42% win rate, "he" pretty much decrease his team chance by counter picking him over anyone else on the opposite team.

Hahaha holy shit, was just messing with this in a bot match. Watching the video, I couldn't tell how much of it was serious.

His previous videos on Morphling and NP were great, love those builds.

Also, recently realized it's Slahser, not Slasher - mind blown.

 

[Drkirby]

He is up to 43.65, I think he will sit at like 46% when the dust settles, which isn't to horrible.

 

[elyetis]

Oh I'm sure he will get better, while staying under 50%. The first few day/weeks just aren't the best time to focus/counter a new hero since most people will do terrible with it by themself.

 

[Drkirby]

I do find it odd how little people mine the runes. You don't need a huge death trap, just a single one to let you see what's there.

 

[JambiBum]

I have a 100% win rate as techies and a 100% win rate against him. Feels good.

Waga's stream is getting wrecked by subs.
He's going to cry.

Also waga is so awesome

he got 1000 dollars donated today from one guy :O

 

[Anuxinamoon]

He deserves it. When I hang out with him at events, hes always super nice, super happy and excited about DOTA.

 

[Mohasus]

Damn, changed tabs for a while, heard a "holy shit" UT commentator, came back and he's crying but I didn't see the donation.

edit: I'm dumb, it was just subs.
edit2: just noticed the Scenes from a Memory steam picture now, easiest follow of my file.
