Guess that's what happened when I was playing SK the other day then. v:v:v
[QUOTE=Atlascore;35838441]Okay I give up, Alchemist is [i]apparently[/i] difficult to play even though he's basically just SK without the revive, aura life steal and crit (a strength carry / tank that right clicks to win and has a stun), now would you kindly explain to me what he brings to a team that makes him worth using over any of the other strength carries in the game?[/QUOTE]
The reason you don't see alchemist that much in comp games is because he isn't part of the metagame. He's similar to kunkka, they're both relatively good heroes, there are just better ones. He has the fastest BAT with his ult, he has armor reduction aoe damage, stuns, and one of the best farming abilities in the game. When you see an alchemist just jumping straight into fights early game, they're doing it wrong. What alchemist should be doing is farming. Abuse his passive, don't put it to waste.

[QUOTE=Atlascore;35838500]...
A strength tank / carry, all you do is SK is throw out a stun and right click, Alchemist is essentially the same except you have to activate your ult to be useful in a fight and you can weaken the armor of anyone dumb enough to stand in the green stuff.[/QUOTE]
Yes, because anyone can just move a fight somewhere else when they're getting stunlocked by a semi-competent team.
I probably won't change your opinion on him so go ahead and say hes useless. I've argued this earlier in the thread and I won't do it again.
[QUOTE=Atlascore;35838201]He has the lowest win rate
He is literally never used in competitive games
He rarely if ever gets above 5 kills in a match
No one plays him in pubs, you're more likely to see Chen than Alchemist[/QUOTE]
up until fairly recently alch was a really common pick/ban in comp games

he has the lowest BAT in the game, relatively high ms, an aoe armor reduction spell, a powerful but unreliable stun and he gets extra gold if you farm efficiently. i dont think you have any idea what youre talking about, please learn about a hero before you voice your opinion on why the hero is bad
oh yeah and enough mana regen to spam his spells and regen higher than most support heroes lategame dps, etc
Juggernaut's spinny thing is annoying as fuck.
Ursa is fun to play.
Play Pugna and laugh as you counter everything Jug can possibly do
play dazzle and laugh as he solo ults you and you pop grave mek and shadow wave

[QUOTE=Captain Chalky;35839067]Is it just me or is Outworld Destroyer really easy to play? Or am I actually [I]good[/I] at something?[/QUOTE]
hes easy
I like nightstalkers aghanim upgrade but I don't really think it's that useful since no one really tries to abuse the fog
I love Batrider, everyone I know hates me for it and I have no idea why...

Day vision + not blocked by anything is so fucking useful, it basically means they can't use high ground advantage at all against you and your team if you're near.
[QUOTE=The Mighty Boat;35839070]

Not that easy, I mean he's extremely item dependent, super squishy, and a hard carry

Ah, never thought of it that way.
Anyone getting a glitch where in the text chat you can't type?
By 36 min Anti-Mage was level 25.
"We are going to be ok, Lycan is freefarm..."
Never thinking that again.
Anyone ever get a bug where you can press enter but can't type anything? This happens every 20 or so minutes and it lasts for about 5.

I just posted something about this a few posts above, but yes.

Oh wow, I'm blind. Thanks though.
Yeah, it seems to be some kind of bug, although I somehow managed to fix it by simply clicking that little black bar.

I usually have to go to the console and then press the console key again.
Does anyone have any extra keys? My little brother would like one for his 15th birthday, We'd appreciate it if anyone could help us out.

I can see a chopper joke in this one

I rasterbated Lina all over my wall.
What's wrong with getting one for my brother? That way we can both play.
is there any situation where sniper is a good hero?

I have people who I would like to get a key to but that doesn't mean I am going to ask FP for a key without a real good reason.
I just won a key from playdota (I don't know if I got it because of that random giveaway, or because my account is old or something else).
Oh no crappy pageking.

I was just seeing if anyone wanted to be generous. It doesn't hurt to ask.
It might not hurt, but it sure as hell is annoying! You see now we have a dozen posts of "STOP BEGGING FOR KEYS" instead of actual discussion about the game!
[QUOTE=Atrbfs;35840353]is there any situation where sniper is a good hero?[/QUOTE]
any situation when you need a good ranged carry and the enemy is lacking in early-game burst damage
