I really wish this was officially in game [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oq-37V_CayA&feature=player_detailpage#t=22s[/url] is there anyway to add it yourself clientside?

[QUOTE=ReLak;37046450]Dirge's abilities amplify teamfight capability, but dirge himself has very little effective teamfight. Enigma ,for your example, has excellent teamfight without dirge, but when dirge is around it becomes devastating. Where as what can dirge do by himself? Put down a tombstone and then flesh golem and the enemy will just run out of range of the tombstone.[/QUOTE] If they're like a lot of people then they'll just fight next to your tombstone.

getting 5 players in an ancient apparition ultimate and taking half their health is a glorious feeling.
just played a game as AM, after i got my battlefury i made a pilgrimage into the enemies jungle and didn't leave till i had my butterfly and heart, then gg at 35 mins AM with freefarm is scary

Speaking of carries with freefarm, I randomed Spectre. [img_thumb]http://i.imgur.com/TyWQ9.png[/img_thumb] I was on lane vs solo lancer who wasnt having a good day. Cant say that picking 4 carries is a good plan.
If it's not much to ask guys, if anyone has been in / seen match where there was Templar Assassin vs Phantom Lancer / Chaos Knight / Naga Siren (i.e. TA on one side, any mix of either CK, PL or Slithice on the other), can I have match IDs ? Just to not clutter the thread, send them to my via PM. For science!

Out of curiosity, what's the best way of dealing with a Night Stalker? Other than wards, of course.
I love going AM with battle fury and walking into jungle for the longest time, then coming out and being all, THE FUN ENDS HERE.
np looks pretty damn fresh with the Peace set [img]http://puu.sh/NWug[/img]

Carry a TP at all times during the 1st night, don't let him catch you wandering alone. When you see which lane he is ganking, [B]TELEPORT THERE RIGHT AWAY[/B], burp on his face = Gank ruined from a press of a button. Not only that, but his Roar goes trough his BKB which is naturally core item on him. Your boar slows him over his night-time buff to around normal movespeed. Beat his face off during the day, you outdps him easily during the day. You should advice your mates to not go alone during the night, stick with the guys who are alone the most, you can ruin his ganks easily. Just make sure his 1st night is a living piece of hell for him and you're good for the rest of the game, unless some dickface still feeds him for some reason.

Now I just need to learn how to play Beastmaster.

[QUOTE=ReLak;37045641] dirge is a jack of all trades, but master of none. he can't out initiate that tidehunter but he can boost it with tombstone and flesh golem. he can't out dps that skeleton king but he can still 1v1 heroes. he can't support as well as that crystal maiden but if he can keep his lane partner in lane. etcetera, etcetera.[/QUOTE] Also I think Dirge's real power comes from the fact that he slips in and out of enemy focus. His tombstone is pretty much the epitome of that. His E is absolutely killer in a proper teamfight, but if used too late or too early, it holds no purpose.

Looking at last hits #'s, honestly I think the best pub rule of thumb is that you should have more cs than your opposing team's carry. Honestly, CS # is important as a rule to go by but it's not realistic to think a normal skill bracket player is going to be remotely close to 100 cs by 10 minutes in a pub. A good normal bracket player might have 40 - 50 by 10 mins. Most are going to be around 20. It depends on what skill level you're at, really. Go back into replays and study the lh patterns of who your opponents and allies are. And then practice.

It's not just "losing focus", unless he is disabled/silenced, Dirge can abuse being focused by drawing fire and healing himself, all while enemies who chose not to focus Tombstone slowly start to regret that decision. There's a reason you don't dive Dirge, as you have to dive him before he drops tombstone and if he does drop it, you have to kill him and escape in a very tight period of time. Also. Looking at my avatar and thiking of Dota. "This is how it feels when you have BKB against heavy teamfight magic AoE damage lineup"

[QUOTE=ReLak;37045641]the max you can get is ~100 (~4.5k gold) you're doing very well if you're >70 (~3.1k gold), otherwise >35 (~1.5k gold) is fine. e: when i say fine i mean fine by pub standards [/QUOTE] Woah, I'm getting about 65. I thought I was a pretty shitty player.

I still called miss in english and helped in team fights and ganks. We won. The chinese team commendated me and added me on steam :3
[QUOTE=dual elites;37050433]people are speaking a language i don't understand, better start being incredibly racist!![/QUOTE] Yes, because racism applies to languages!
Why is Shadowfiend so easy to play? I need to farm some more free wins.
To be fair you shouldn't be queueing in a region where you do not know the native language. It hurts your fellow teammates if you cannot communicate with them.
Losing streak yet continues! This time russian sniper and phantom assasin (who once talked to the mic and sounded like a kid) who both went 0-7 or so.
