Yeah, I'm pretty sure it didn't wait for back swings in WC3. Seems like kind of a weird thing to have.

He is getting a new immortal at least, believe!
I expect 10 hero challenge, player cards and all that other junk from TI4
Else Valve will annoy a lot of people
If the only way to level up the compendium is to buy points they have gone full on PAID MODS mode
Proof:
EE creates No Tide Hunter
Loda kicks EE
NTH renamed Alliance
Suddenly one of the best teams in the world
Win TI3
Red Bull has always seemed weird as fuck to me
A cold drink company who is actually one of the biggest players in the international sports scene

It is not deathball, comeback can happen and you don't forfeit after the first rack is taken.
However, games are shorter. Edit: Actually, my games are: 38 min vs 41min previously. This is 10% shorter on average. Stomps are even shorter than they used to be.
How the hell are dust and OOV among your most used items

C9 is doing well enough (not quite DAC-winning well obviously) so I don't see the problem in sticking with his team.
Also this, I couldn't root for a team which has EE in it. EG for shame.

EE and ppd on the same team sounds like a recipe for disaster.
I think the patch has dragged in a whole bunch of new idiots
Had a game with a Nightstalker
Doesnt gank till 14 minutes and only has urn and brown boots at 20 minutes
Profile says only 80 games won
Thanks Valve
played Alchemist as a piggy bank yesterday with midas.
Minute 10 -> Free Aghanims for Treant Protector
Minute 18 -> Free Aghanims for Witch Doctor
Minute 25 -> Free Aghanims for Leshrak
Minute 32 calling GG, watching the enemy ancient fall and never left the jungle once
Alchemist seems currently way too OP in several ways. I don't even want to imagine facing a team with alchi if the game goes over the 80min mark

From what i'm seeing more like 1/4
at least 1/2 enjoy bitching and projecting about him all the times
Wasn't that common knowledge? He talked about that in a blog (or maybe on stream) sometime ago, AFAIR.

Axe is one of the best junglers in the game, and is easily shut down in lane depending on what he's against
He's not. You should have lost that game, aghs machine alchemist is a shit build. You should only have bought one aghs and that's for WD. You're lucky your team could win 4v5.

Whenever I see a common jungler on the enemy team, I pick a hard carry and win the game due to free farm. Absolutely love seeing Axe, LC, Lifestealer and other heroes on the enemy team.

It's funny you'd say that because LC and naix are horrible junglers
but I guess pubs are morons because they jungle them half of the time

I never jungle LC. Fucking rekt with her in 6.81 as an off laner and mid. Soul Ring off lane was hilarious. No idea how anyone was supposed to lane against her.
Yeah, didn't really expect to win and I just wanted to try some farm / timing stuff.
Doesn't change the fact that a team with Alchi has basically 7 Slots (due to the free Agh-Buff) + an Alchi that can boost his or the stats of anyone in the team to infinity and beyond.

Yeah you got 7 slots and you're 4v5. Also the aghs buffs don't stack
Alch is still pretty shit, he got a minor and very situational buff.

You know it's possible to have an offlaner and a jungler right

Once had a jungling troll back in 6.83
And an offlane tinker to boot
That was not a fun game

Didnt you know jungle is just another lane? Thats why you can put your icon there.

I played a game on my brother's low MMR account and had two junglers (Tinker and LC) on my team. In the same jungle. L fucking ol. We literally had 3 solo lanes.

Had the Jugg gone for a Manta Style to get rid of my silence, I would've stood no chance of winning that high 2k scrub tier game.
edit: And LC managed to inflict a whopping 6k hero damage in 60 minutes LMAO.
jungle troll is actually fine, ran it a few times

Jungle troll is (or was) at least somewhat viable with sub-8 min Rosh and faster than one level a minute. See here, there are many more. The problem was that he was so dominant in lane that it was kind of a waste. The changes probably made it less than viable.
Knowing choke points and spawn boxes helps a lot.

you at least had an idea what you are doing.
This guy had no idea what he was doing and i think died to creeps twice.
Besides i think it was a waste of trolls amazing lane control and killing potential.

I remember BSJ did a jungle troll guide on his stream in 6.83. Seemed to think it was legit, though losing 15 damage in melee form might have ruined it a bit.

Router drama is nerve-wracking. I think I have a good wired connection to my computer now at least (but nobody else has wi-fi)
Still haven't played any games of 6.84. How is Doom?

Eh, I doubt that. You do realize that your sample size is virtually 1 game and some of the best players in the world are Russian as well as Russians having the largest presence in the top 200 EU leaderboard?

Doom is so good now because he has a free aghs with alch so he can make a radiance instead
Undying+1 hardlane is cheating, did it last night with lion :
I'm also not fond of having a jungler, even more if it's a pub I don't know, the easy lane can fail against the ennemy dual hard ( and it sadly it happens pretty often ), the jungle will usually afk jungle till he get's his blink ( or a given level, etc... ) even if he see the easy fail. So you give free farm to ennemy easy lane, while sometime, also loosing your own safe.
How does it feel to be a SELLOUT?
