He was probably playing meepo.

[QUOTE=Tokagero;37824679]Winnable by turtling and proper teamfight detterance, like killing enemie's main teamfight star, or stalling tower defenses by split pushing asap. 5 carries means hard early and possibly twisting some builds around so that they can fit in team-supportive items. + carries often have farm mechanisms, i.e. they can easily spare 200 to ward every now and then. Dota isn't set in stone, anything is vailiable with proper engineering behind it, even 5 man random![/QUOTE] Once I had someone on my team going support dragon knight :v:

I'm rather glad that I'm not going to get hit by bullshit illuminate anymore.

[QUOTE=General J;37826319]Hooray, I can finally solo mid against TA with no more bullshit PSI blades.[/QUOTE] Don't worry good TA players will still rape you.

[QUOTE=ProgramFiles;37826405]I'm rather glad that I'm not going to get hit by bullshit illuminate anymore.[/QUOTE] It's new range is acceptable, but I would have preferred to see the damage/range/both reduced during the night-phases.. ...Or maybe Ezalor is still a pimp that don't need no shit.

I'm going to just pick one of the three new heroes with icons from now on, good too because they are all different roles pretty much.

[QUOTE=titopei;37827229]How wide was it? I remember it being compared to a battlefury but that was probably just an exaggeration.[/QUOTE] Easiest way to say it is that you just couldn't stand anywhere behind a creep she was hitting. The only safe place would be by the creep's side.

[QUOTE=Phaesol;37826119]Micro'd all 4 of my disconnected teammates and won the game against 5 connected enemies finishing the game off with a total of 6 rapiers. Best feeling in the world.[/QUOTE] Replay or it didn't happen

I remember one game I was with my friends on skype and it was a 1v5 with their antimage being the only dude left. We were pushing and suddenly all 5 heroes ran towards us and we scrambled around like retards and antimage made tide ult and lich ult and we panicked and screamed on our microphones and he got a teamwipe. Then he said "gg fucking noobs" and disconnected after the teamfight and we all felt so ashamed.

[QUOTE=Badunkadunk;37827416]Does the second orb still vanish if you cast both at once and the first ends?[/QUOTE] I remember someone posting about a bug that when you cast both then it will add onto the already bounces of the 1st orb (Like if you throw one, it bounces 4 times and throw another then both of them combined will only bounce 3 more times and they both disappear so theres a total of 7 for 2 orbs instead of 14)

I see someone raping the fuck out of us so I decide to play, then their team is suddenly pro and gank the shit out of me.

Exactly, not that pub hero's are hard to counter but whenever they're on the other team its like my team are afraid of them or something. I see a couple teammates around so I go in for ursa, then as soon as they see him pop all of his abilities they bail for no reason and I get ripped a new asshole I should really blame my lack of skill on being a shit Ursa but really whenever I play as Ursa I'm either laning against someone i cant do shit against and/or they gank me early game and I can't get the early kills ursa needs

blblblbl let's talk about batrider and how he's amazing but his attack animation and turning speed is ass. [img]http://i.imgur.com/Z0BZE.png[/img]

[QUOTE=Bordellimies;37825058]At least everyone thinks that it is so if you don't want to play by these rules you [I]will[/I] get reported 6 times and flamed to all hell. Also, you can play the heroes in [B]only one[/B] way. Lets look at someone like Tristana, one of Riot's older carry champions which means when she was created her abilities had AP ratios. If she was created today, she would have AP ratios on only 1 skill, but now she has them on 3 skills (and one ability has 2 ratios for 2 effects). You basically are a long range nuker (long range for LoL) with a good leap that refreshes if you get kill/assist. Still, when I played her a few times in solomid, going AP (I did good) I was repeatedly flamed and reported for not playing her as Attack Damage like "I was supposed to". In DotA we don't have Ability Power so we don't have scaling abilities unless its something like Storm Spirit or Outworld Destroyer (scale with mana), which also means I can't play Tidehunter as a nuker mage or something. In LoL I could do so and if I want to I sure as hell should be able to do so without being cast into hell. [B] EDIT: [/B]Those who don't know Tristana, she is a carry with 1 ability that boosts her attack speed, passive which boosts her attack range, and 3 abilities that are fit for a mage. Leap has a great AP ratio, 1 ability deals high DoT and AoE dmg on kills, and ult is a ranged single-target nuke that knockbacks multiple enemies. You basically could jump in to a wave of minions and if the enemy champ was there they would lose half of their max HP because the leap killed all of the minions which all dealt the AoE dmg for kills, and then my leap ability also dealt high dmg. Now I could just ult and apply the DoT for a pretty much guaranteed kill vs another squishy mid mages. To me she seems like a better mage than a AD carry (or did before the nerf to her Ap burst).[/QUOTE] Basically AP and AP/AD ratios on abilities on all heroes made carrying easier and more simplistic. It's not "Get item that fits enemies (In Dota, Dodge = MKB, caster = BKB, optional blademail, butterfly if they have physical carries, etc)", but rather "Get more punch for everything".

[QUOTE=Reddit post, believe at your own risk.]I shouldn't even type this, but since the release is soon, I might leak some info. I am currently in the beta team for DotA. The new version (6.75) has the biggest and most significant change DotA has ever seen during IceFrog's reign as developer. It is pretty awesome, a lot of things to get excited about. As many of you guys know by now, the leaked information was only the early stage of development. FM is one of the new hero as well as Gnoll. Also, be prepared to have a huge patch update for DotA 2 next week. The reason this week has no major content update is because the guys at Valve are preparing/changing DotA 2 for the big 6.75 version, which will require a lot of work. Be excited guys! Something BIG is coming. AND no, the beta team is closed and will remain closed for a very long time.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=Lefter;37829655]that clockwerk why vlads WHY[/QUOTE] If hes not doing great at farming / let carries farm (LIKE THEY SHOULD) why not get vlads??? Bonus damage + life steal for melee?
