[QUOTE=Rarara;37142859]Don't know, he's a pretty good hero overall.
On the other hand, its not like you see a lot of Chens, Lone Druids or Enchantresses in random games either.[/QUOTE]
I've seen loads of enchantresses
I've seen horrible lone druids tho
sometimes I random Lone Druid.
then I carry.
Sometimes I random.
Haha who am I kidding ? If I dare random on the European server I'll just end up with a 5 carry team.

Thats the reason I don't like randoming.
The only carries im interested in are so difficult. Alchemist, Lone Druid, DOOM, Lanaya... Why am I cursed to be tempted by these heroes and not the simple ones?
[QUOTE=Suttles;37143438]I've seen horrible lone druids tho[/QUOTE]
I saw a lone druid that built tons of attack items on himself and put almost nothing on his bear, besides TREADS
Then he switched lanes by walking all the way across the map and made his bear walk towards him without using Return

Doom and Lanaya are not hard.
Druid's my favorite carry but people always complain about your build. Only build I don't see people whine about is dual midas and I refuse to build that.
[QUOTE=Tokagero;37142962]If you stack with axes you also damage it, making it quicker to kill and giving you farm in the meantime instead of all at once.[/QUOTE]
It also eats all your mana and make sit so you can't use axes to harass or secure kills in lane.

Dual Midas is retarded unless your team has litterally no pushing power besides Druid and he is the only carry.
You delay your core items by so fucking much just so you are slightly better off late game.

when did people start listening to their team in DOTA???
I go Radiance if I am free-farming, or Mjollnir if I am killing people.

Or you can be in lane getting experience and farm while stacking with your boar.
Honestly it's situational though. If the enemy is aware that you are stacking, getting anything in the stack low is just asking to have it stolen.
[QUOTE=RagerTrader;37143663]It also eats all your mana and make sit so you can't use axes to harass or secure kills in lane.[/QUOTE]
Soul ring has gotten popular on beastmaster specifically because of what it allows you to do with ancient stacks. You typically build regeneration items on him anyways since he is that farm dependant utility that isn't quite a carry, type of hero. In other words, he's the perfect pipe carrier.
I noticed this earlier on the [url=http://www.dota2wiki.com/wiki/Unreleased_Content]unreleased content page,[/url]
New game modes.[url=http://www.cyborgmatt.com/2012/02/dota-2-16th-feb/#back-end-changes][sup][1][/sup][/url]
Death Mode - If you die, you will have to pick a new hero once you can respawn.
Easy Mode - Towers are weaker, experience is gained faster, and you get more periodic gold.
When do you guys think they are going to fully implement these?
Last night me and JWJ just played as Riki and Lifestealer. Oh my god it's brilliant. Best combo ever.
Easy mode is shit. It teaches you bad habits, and you don't get punished for being absolute garbage.
Death match is great with full random. Complete and utter chaos, but it's a far cry from anything serious.
[QUOTE=ForgottenKane;37143904]Last night me and JWJ just played as Riki and Lifestealer. Oh my god it's brilliant. Best combo ever.[/QUOTE]
Another fun combo is Naix + Spirit Breaker.
Anyone want to join me in my group? I want to create a team of combos. Naix + Riki top, Invoker mid, IDK what to put bottom as of yet.
[editline]8th August 2012[/editline]
Probably Chen and Leshrac to have some real pushing power.

Dude. I've seen 1 tournament with pro teams with Cheats On and it was hilarious! Now imagine fun-tournamnets with variety of modes, like All Random, death mode ,etc.
Btw, does Death Mode work like this :
If you die, you pick new hero, but keep items and levels.
Or does it wipe the board and you start with level 1 no items ?
Latter seems more interesting, but god, if someone manages to survive for a while.
[QUOTE=OutOfExile2;37143240]Enchantress is also really boring if your team is retarded because she's such a good early pusher and no one ever wants to do that[/QUOTE]
Enchantress is pretty fun, randomed her half the time and picked her the other half of the time, always got first blood.

okay venomancer isn't that bad
fucking viper though
FUCK viper
Wow I can't play Lanaya for shit.
Cheats on his rather stupid. Everyone max levels and then has permanent bkb. Or if you only do -wtf, clockwerk kills the entire map from lvl 1 unless you have spell immunity like naix and Juggernaut.
I like otaD tournaments where you pick the enemy team's heroes, just because you see silly things like 5 carry teams, spirit breaker, and other retarded picks being played by professional players.

He's probably the hero I'm most confortable with. As soon as I get 2 wraith bands and maybe boots, its ganking time, and instantly get 2 kills from a lane.
[QUOTE=dass;37144046]Wow I can't play Lanaya for shit.[/QUOTE]
blink in, meld-strike, refraction, keep attacking, traps if they try to get away, if necessary blink to them and meld-strike again
[QUOTE=devon_wargod;37144071]blink in, meld-strike, refraction, keep attacking, traps if they try to get away, if necessary blink to them and meld-strike again[/QUOTE]
Refraction before blinking in, gives you bonus damage
[QUOTE=OutOfExile2;37144104]Refraction before blinking in, gives you bonus damage[/QUOTE]
this is also valid and may actually be better and I will try it at some point

In those tournies all you need to do is pick tiny and RUSH HoM into bkb and then abyssal blade (for immunity piercing)

Lucy is difficult? Spam devour, eat creeps in lane, eat a forest priest if possible, lategame eat an alpha wolf for pro crits and damage bonus. Click on person raping with skill set. It couldn't be that hard.
