"alchemist isn't a [I]bad[/I] hero, he's just not as good as every other carry!" is the most retarded argument i have ever heard in my life
what the fuck other scale are we supposed to judge him on? his power versus LoL champions?
Just met a Storm Spirit that kept pausing whenver he got ganked, and unpaused; ulted away. Is this reportable? It pisses me off so much.
I worked my ass off to make the best build possible with cheats ingame. He attacked nonstop but either you get tons of attack speed or actual damage over 200, which I can get WD to inflict with far less farm and more HP and usefulness (in the form of skills and free item slots). If I DO build tons of attack speed or damage (you can only pick one) you forego HEALTH, which I can effectively top off at around 2.4k if I throw away shoes to actually get stats all while maintaining attack power at the hypothetical 80 minute mark in a game. Heart of Tarassque will yield 4.4k HP but your damage output suffers a lot unless you once again throw away your boots or gimp your attack speed significantly or your damage significantly. He's one of those triangle charts where you pull one corner and the other two shrink, pretty much, with the points being health/damage/attack speed (his implied strength).
I can effectively make 1.3k gold in under a minute jungling with him lategame, but this is with all of his items already so there's no point to the mega farm.
If you fight in the acid spray, with 240 damage hitting as fast as possible you can probably tear people to shreds but you're hoping to god nobody stuns or even just focuses you since I had to pass on a bkb to deal the same damage the average lategame fed carry does. This is the most unorthodox situation with maximum feed and I still feel like he's pretty useless just because of how much shit I needed to be a threat. (MoM, Mjolnir, AC, MKB, Daedalus, phase boots) Maybe butterfly for extra defense, evasion and speed instead of one of those, or tarassque instead of one- I had a hard time even picking good items to maximize his potential.
I love alch as a character, he's my favorite interaction between two people in a single hero, but he really needs a rework.

singsing does that all the time, to buy items before dying, however.
I am submitting [URL="dota2://matchid=31601621&matchtime=2006"]this[/URL] as a Fail of the Week. Watch Brewmaster (me) or Antimage.
Also during the same match, look at [URL="dota2://matchid=31601621&matchtime=1361"]this[/URL], where BS rages AM instead of himself and dies for it, and the low-health AM's failed escape from me (somehow).
Dxtory is messing up. Not going to post it myself :(

[QUOTE=aydin690;37162888]Except for the fact that there are 24000 of them.[/QUOTE]
I believe it was 24000 crates which were opened, not 24000 timebreakers. There was like 9 items in the crate so there's most likely only a couple thousand. I could be wrong.

EG didnt ban AM during the draft and mouz picked him up

There is no stopping a farmed AM, he will 5v1 your team and laugh while doing it

The funny thing about this was they were most likely going to put Black on a farming Sand King and just go for mass teamfight strength, but then EG banned him and forced Black onto AM

Void, Morphling,Spectre, and push strats would like a word with you.
I always find it amusing that nobody cries when something other than antimage/morphling gets stupidly fat.

I was actually somewhat expecting clinkz. Orchid is excellent for screwing with siren, and EG's lineup was not exactly tanky. Not to mention what happens when clinkz noms a chen centaur.
I think Slark is coming semi-soon.

The problem is that AM farms a lot faster and easier than void, morphling and spectre (lol, spectre needs 45+ of free farm). Oh and they dont have 5 sec blink.

OD is really good tbh
It's really fun when their whole team has low intelligence, it really is. Good god his aura is great, nearly infinite mana unless if you get unlucky(I've seen a 2000 mana OD go from 2000 to almost 0...with the passive maxed out), even better it helps in team fights. Your team mates get nearly infinite mana, beautiful.
Since the last update my fps ingame has dropped to -40 and it randomly goes to 10. I tried lowering the graphics but it's did nothing.
Anyone else with this problem and/or know how to fix it?

Not saying AM isn't powerful, but the pool is big enough now that anti mage isn't the instant ban pick level of supreme anymore. He's situational against teams that don't have 4 billion disables. His power comes from his ability to fight with farming items because he can get away if he is in trouble combined with his orb which lets him maintain damage, but disables mean he has to build tanky, or not engage at all (4v5)
In the mouz vs EG game the only true disable they had was shackleshot, and to a lesser extent ensnare. Until they built mass sheepsticks, those two skills and chen creeps were the extent of their stuns, and anti mage excels in situations like that where his blink makes him nearly uncatchable.
There are numerous examples recently of an AM getting his shit kicked in by teams with massive numbers of disables, or loosing all map control and being unable to farm. Now that the pool as expanded, you cannot ban enough to guarantee a first pick AM a favorable lineup low on disables.
EG picked into a lineup that was incapable of shutting down a mobile hero (could have been a clinkz or a storm spirit just as easily) in the early states of the game and instead went for push, and 1437 recognized that weakness and exploited it. It's not even like mouz banned around AM specifically. EG failed to pick up disables like VS, beastmaster, even enigma. They had an awful lot of push power (Kotl, profit, chen, and even windrunner and siren can push a bit themselves), and got thrown back at T3 towers, and failed to accomplish enough with it.
