Dota 2 General Chat - I, for one, welcome our new Chinese overlords - Games

I really hope that Lina witch hat from the Workshop gets added. I'm on such a Lina kick right now.

[QUOTE=General J;37609712]Templar Assasin is a cute hero :) So when is she getting fixed, exactly?[/QUOTE] Lanaya is broken? Since when?

Broken as in OP or what?

[QUOTE=Necro'lic;37609799]Huh? [url]https://dotabuff.com/matches/39515090[/url] you mean 6 minutes right?[/QUOTE] Wow, big typo there. I mean 16.

[QUOTE=Zorus;37610122]Lanaya is broken? Since when?[/QUOTE] Since she exists? It's extremly easy to dominate the match with her even with a shitty farm.

[QUOTE=Malvodion;37610619]Since she exists? It's extremly easy to dominate the match with her even with a shitty farm.[/QUOTE] She falls off pretty hard lategame if she doesn't have a good early game And veno, leshrac, pudge, any dot skullfuck her pretty hard in pubs.

Not as many games today but it sure was better than yesterday. [img]http://i.imgur.com/GL04K.png[/img] [B]E:[/B] My games are long as shit for some reason. I think the average game for me for three days now is 50 min. :v:

Argh, I check this thread so often to see if meepo has arrived. Where is meepo?

I know those first two games were long hauls because of our lineups but the third was "Well, they're not [I]not[/I] fighting us." I hate games that are too drawn out. It's boring for the loser (wants to leave, hates teammates, is bored of getting stomped, can't simply AFK until loss because of abandon) and it's boring for the winner (no challenge, only good for stroking ego, sometimes don't have the ability to push for a win right then and there so it takes time).

[QUOTE=General J;37609712]Templar Assasin is a cute hero :) So when is she getting fixed, exactly?[/QUOTE] Hopefully soon. She still does have some massive counters, but most hero's cant compete unless that out-carry her or harass her early. If this bitch keeps being OP then I'm going to have to keep setting my clock to the WITCHING HOUR just for her.

[QUOTE=Suttles;37613028]It also increases the chance of getting an item iirc I hope you don't get matched with traders[/QUOTE] Longer game = More battle points too

[QUOTE=Zorus;37610122]Lanaya is broken? Since when?[/QUOTE] She's essentially as good as a snowballer as Anti-Mage, but MUCH earlier and doesn't need as many kills to start so either. Not a good idea. [QUOTE=titopei;37610641]She falls off pretty hard lategame if she doesn't have a good early game And veno, leshrac, pudge, any dot skullfuck her pretty hard in pubs.[/QUOTE] In the early game. If you don't manage to kill her then she will shut down your entire team and it won't matter for the lategame since your carries will get ganked constantly.

What I like the least is that you get rewarded for being bad as TA. You have perma invisibility and the ability to completely block 7 hits, then go invisible, then block 7 hits, over and over. Early game it is LITERALLY impossible to kill a competent TA. You can attack several people at the same time with basic positioning skills. You have permanent, super long range traps that gives as much slow as Vipers ulti. That you can have infinite of. And, Meld gives a fuckton of bonus damage, so you can completely lose a battle, go invisible forever, then use the -armor and bonus damage to instantly win.

Any hero with DoT or spells that tick frequently (like Leshrac or Venomancer) eats through her refraction pretty quickly. Dust/sentries/gem can also be used to counter her Meld/traps. She also can't gank anyone unless you do something like walk through the jungle alone with no wards. You just have to keep on shutting her down early before the snowball starts rolling. Stun heavy teams work wonders on her.

If you are mid against a TA, and you have no decent damage over time skill you are pretty much fucked if she isn't plain retarded. Even if she is doing bad, she still has a shitton of damage without any items at all. Batrider is pretty sexy against her.

I just tell my pal to go Pudge and I go ES and gank her at lv1. Creeps go mid, she goes downhill to lasthit = Surprise, walled next to Pudge with fart on. 1stblood every time. (Works on other mid heroes too without mobility spells.)

Remember the whole bullshit about LoL forcing the teams to drop their players from others MOBAs ? mTw just dropped their LoL team.

[QUOTE=TehWoodPcker;37615326]So did Absolute Legends and M5 just broke up their current team to form a new one later on[/QUOTE] You didn't get my post: AL and M5 both dropped their [B]Dota[/B] teams. mTw dropped their [B]LoL[/B] team.

Questioning the survey sign-up again: How long does it take to receive an invite? And do your answers determine whether or not you actually get it? 'Cause it must have been three weeks since I sent in my survey.
