He says all the time that he'd rather just get paid to play videogames at home. He'd have to quit streaming and go pro full time. Plus, his reflexes aren't where they used to be.

Its not like a dota game is a good place to go at length to talk about these things, but I like how he completely ignores all the other stuff put up against him.

Also I really hate how people keep bringing that W33 quote saying that "It wasn't as bad as Envy made it out to be, it made me a better person" to downplay what EE said.

The worst of it to me though is the quote. I might be wrong, but that sounds exactly like the kind of shit someone who gets bullied says. Why I think that is because that's exactly the same sentence (apart from the names) I used when I was getting bullied in HS.

The kind of stuff where a guy grabs you and slams you into a wall and makes you bleed. Denial is the kind of mentality that makes you see that kind of stuff and say "oh it wasn't as bad, it helped me become a better person." Trying to go through the mental gymnastics to blame yourself for what you're going through.

I might be completely wrong about it, but I just really hate seeing that quote being brought up to try to downplay what Puppey did.

Waiting for 5 hour Purge patch analysis

Camps on odd minute spawns was probably my least favorite change in Dota ever. Glad to see it reverted

LiQuid!

I proudly and openly admit to wishing death upon the mothers of people I don't like
Now that neutrals are back to 1 min global respawn instead of 2 minutes, does that mean we will finally stop seeing 10 midas purchases in every game now because there wasn't enough farm in the game for everybody?

Yeah I'm really happy about that too. I miss my fat stacks.

Refresh now replenishes charge-based abilities

This is nice, and I wondered if they would ever address this.

Soul Ring
Now requires a Mango instead of a 150 recipe

Better hold onto your Mangoes

Sand King
Caustic Finale is no longer a Unique Attack Modifier

Thank fucking god, it was stupid that this one remained a UAM for the longest time while so many others were no longer UAMs.

Level 25 Talent from +20% Vampiric Aura Lifesteal to Reincarnation Casts Wraithfire Blast [?]

Does this pick a target to throw it at or what? It says replaces the slow, but if it's just one target, that sounds like a lousy deal.

edit: oh shit there are more changes below
axe scepter seems crazy good wtf
hahaha aghs dazzle grave becomes aoe!!!!
lc aghs duel makes her spell immune? huh i think that's actually pretty good now?

You just pull an ally without using Enchant Remnant on them. It's just like how it used to be when the hero came out, except behind a talent.

I think the Clinkz adjustment is fine. PL still not a hero. Earthshaker getting True Strike and that huge Fissure talent sounds cool, might try to offlane him in a game vs PA.

I don't know how I feel about the respawn talents. I have lost games where we would have an almost 2-1 kill advantage, but the respawn talents on their cores was enough to stop our pushes from being super successful allowing them more time to build up and get fat which drew out games. But I think that it is interesting that those talents could allow teams that are losing to delay and hold out.
