anybody have any good tips on laning against sniper? he's such a fucking pain, pelting my ass every time I go for a last hit or denial
my best hope always seems to be either have someone gank him or stun him long enough his babysitter can't kill me while I finish him

He has a low amount of hp so spam him with nukes if you have some, if not just start with some more regen, invest into a stout shield or more regen.
His early game power relies on him being able to harass you and you not being able to answer back, so calling for a gank is smart thing to do. Otherwise you can go balls to the walls and jump on him with everything you've got.(if youre not too squishy)
[QUOTE=Banhfunbags;37955801]The aura works when he's in the blackhole, so it just cancels the blackhole, making it impossible land a good one.[/QUOTE]
its after the black hole
but still, if enigma doesnt catch silencer he's fucked
his ult cancels it.

Yes. But that would be extremely redundant. Especially since moving would cause both of them to end.
Holy shit alchemist is pretty good now. Even though I got shat on because shadow shaman stole all my solo farm and fed the fuck out of ursa and phantom lancer, he's definitely not as shit as before. Mainly because enemies can't see the timer anymore.

People can still see Razzil (the small goblin on ogre's back) swinging bottles and mixing a [U]cock[/U]tail, which means he is charging the stun.
Whenever I see him doing it, I instantly run into the closest forest and merry-go-roundabout it until he stuns himself, then either kill him or run away while laughing at his dipshit face.
I know this is late.
But this is the reason I hope LoL dies out

Riot have no idea what they're doing, and even after being asked by one team to turn the minimaps off, they didn't.
How hard is it to wall off the gameplay areas?
Other issues being players suffered from sun glare that got through the tarps set up around the arena (You think a torny with a $5,000,000 prize pool could afford to hire out a hall or something) internet connectivity issues (Because LAN connection at a LAN event is hard, amiright?) etc etc.
However, ON TOPIC. I'm loving the new ganking oriented gameplay. It's much more fast paced and fresh. I think 6.75 was a good patch, and am going to enjoy more of it's fruity amazingness.
I read about that earlier today.
Something you might want to mention, which I didn't catch on to at first, was that they were having the tournament [I]outside in a parking lot near the Staples building[/I]. It was a pretty grand setup, but seriously guys. That is not how you play a fucking video game tournament.

They were in a carpark?
Jesus christ.
I wanna say my piece about this and then go to bed...
The more and more I hear about Riot and LoL and their "competitive scene" the more I completely don't understand how they're retaining people in it. Every major tournament there is some kind of serious fuck up that makes the entire company look awful. It stretches from "simple" shit like not having a fucking pause feature, even if it's just in their tournament clients, to ignoring a serious issue like this where people are cheating on their grand main stage in the biggest finals event they've ever held. I get that they like to [url=http://www.reddit.com/r/DotA2/comments/1139ig/i_come_from_rlol_in_peace_how_well_are_dota2/c6iypo2]treat people who like their game well[/url] (to an extend) but you need to treat [I]everything[/I] well if you're going to have a huge fucking tournament like this. Look at how The International was setup. That's how you run a tournament. What if it rained? The entire event would have been fucking hosed.
I could go on, but I'm tired and don't care enough.
Wow I hate this community. I ask for 20seconds, pause the game, and restart DotA because my heath bars are bugged out.
I come back just in time to see Drow Ranger (Other team) quit because, and I quote "Rubick is taking too long, I came to play, not to pause."
Also, anyone elses custom couriers not working?

Nothing but donkeys showing up for me.
finally at 50:50 win loss, and i did it in style (bought a rapier)
So I saw a few pages back a halloween themed roshan was in the files somewhere? Was it a string or is there an actual model?
Edit: And another thing. How does one be decent with Visage? How should I use his familiars?
Jakiro and Batrider are the winners of 6.75, no contest. The only hero that comes reasonably close is Treant.

Alchemist got some quality buffs but they were not even close to the ones Jakiro, Bat and Tree received.
[QUOTE=Terin7;37952346]Battlefury costs as much as about any mid tier item. Do you expect to to spend 2k on a vanguard and vanguard alone before the game ends?[/QUOTE]
It's cost so much to me because by mid-game the most coins I have is usually around 2050 if I don't buy any thing.
By the time I get to lvl 5 as Anti the enemy and my team are already lvl 8.
Single Draft, and enemies pick 4 carrys. Literally 4 hard carrys. (Void, Naix, Drow, Naga + Rubick)
And obviously by some "miracle" they won, where no matter what you do, some enemy carry is free farming somewhere. And we had a jungler furion too who ganked like once or twice.

[QUOTE=Banhfunbags;37955578]Is Silencer the hard counter to Enigma? There's absolutely no way to use blackhole with Silencer alive pretty much, even if he's not at the fight.[/QUOTE]
If black hole hits the silencer he can't do shit about it.

The only thing you can really do in that situation is try to win as fast as possible. Because once one hits carry mode, they ALL hit carry mode.
Why do I hardly see Pugna played?
He is such a fun hero to play.

you can still hear it and see the animations tho
I made an alchemist so mad, me and my friend backed up everytime we heard / saw it.

Pugna's Scepter upgrade is one of the funnest things I've ever experienced in this game.

Shadow Amulet might be fun on Pugna
[QUOTE=Oldaveragejoe;37959758]Shadow Amulet might be fun on Pugna[/QUOTE]
I really dislike this item. Its good only on a few heroes and most of them are INT, which means the increased attack speed is useless to them. Also, it costs 1600 gold which is pretty big for someone like Witch Doctor, who will have a hard time getting it without committing to farm.
Im really trying to find a good use for it, to fit it in some strat or build but I cant think up of anything.

I theorized it to be good item on Pudge, since he basically sits still for a while until he tosses a hook, why not sit still while being invisible.
Ofc it's 1600 gold used up for a simple item that is not required, but it works quite well on paper.

But for another couple hundred gold you could buy a force staff which, as we all know, is amazing. The thing is that the item gives a lot of attack speed(which is useless on pudge) and thats what makes it so expensive. If there was an item with the same active and no other stats, but was a bit cheaper then yeah, that'd be a pretty sweet item to get.
Also, I sometimes get shadowblade on Pudge when ever the game is clearly won because of how hilarious it is.
