And whatever terrible DotA ripoff those people made for Starcraft II.

Is plague rider a viable hero? I like him and I love his voice acting

i don't mean dota really, i mean someone could make all of the spells from hon and put it into a free map

[QUOTE=NoShogun;30337271]Is plague rider a viable hero? I like him and I love his voice acting[/QUOTE] PR is one of the easiest heroes in the game to play and has one of the most devastating ultimate's.

[QUOTE=Anonymuzz;30324451]how exactly did your team out-carry predator and flint[/QUOTE] since our devo was shitty and couldn't land a grab, and our plague was useless, and our gladiator was randomed glad because he was expecting ws, i shut down flint with morph, i trapped pred in wards, and amun-ra finished the rest off with a lucky glad pit here and there and devo usually going off alone and ulting myrm or something. [editline]8th June 2011[/editline] oh yea amun-ra also bought frost to shut pred down more easily.

Look my Panda! FUCK! It's so GOOD! [img]http://filesmelt.com/dl/LOL16.jpg[/img] (DJ killsteals as usual)

Devourer is a ton of fun.

Midded against a 1700 maliken with hatchet, thought I did pretty well considering he had a friend warding for him and trying to gank. Matched him for last hits on bubbles.

New patch notes leaked + red's are playing a guess the patch notes game on the forums. The next patch is going to be absolutely game changing.

Right? You can't just say "SHITS LEAKED" and then have nothing. [editline]9th June 2011[/editline] Derp, Reddit. [url]http://www.reddit.com/r/HeroesofNewerth/comments/hvdkf/2034_patch_notes/[/url]

Sorry I don't like leaking/spreading things directly! It isn't very hard to find if you just google either.

Universal melee hero attack range? Nifty. Neutral creep leash nerf? Uhm...what? No more secret shop? Uhm...[B][U]WHAT?[/U][/B] Keeper rework? Nifty.

Pollywog Priest is a baller. Turn then into froggies then trap them in tongue then trap then in wards then shock them

[QUOTE=Banned?;30351337]Universal melee hero attack range? Nifty. Neutral creep leash nerf? Uhm...what? No more secret shop? Uhm...[B][U]WHAT?[/U][/B] Keeper rework? Nifty.[/QUOTE] They're trying to nerf creep camp stacks (a specific legion camp is now impossible to have 3 stacks with that change) to reduce trilane/stack power. The secret shop was pretty dumb as is. Good players almost never visited it anyways, they would use the courier to use the SS which removed the entire point of the SS. Putting the SS into the stock base is also far less confusing for newbies, and improves the focus on Wards for newbies.

i was just in a game with a sand wraith on my team who went straight for shaman's headdress right after his steamboots... i really need to start group matchmaking [editline]9th June 2011[/editline] he never did get anything after the headdress either

[editline]9th June 2011[/editline] Wow, why you people rating me late? Haven't seen anyone post this here :( EDIT: I AM SORRY, I MUST BE BLIND!

I've said this twice now in this thread but I'm saying it again: Devo = endless fun

Secret shop being removed? why?

[QUOTE=MoarFunz;30353538]Secret shop being removed? why?[/QUOTE] Learn to read. The items will still be there, but they will be at the main base instead. In place of the old secret shop, there will be an observatory that sells wards. Also with observatory selling wards this means that supports could possibly buy something else instead of wards at first, then buy and place the ward at around 2:00 by which they should have farmed up 100 gold.

To make room for the observatory to be there?(They might have wanted to put it there anyways, but didn't think wards in the secret shop would make sense) Who knows? ...Warchamp?

Warchamp is just a GM. I don't think he has design insight. [editline]9th June 2011[/editline] >play Devo great on alt account >swap to main, miss all hooks :wtf:

[editline]9th June 2011[/editline] >play Devo great on alt account >swap to main, miss all hooks :wtf:[/QUOTE] He plays on the test realm though, I believe. Or at least he has some idea as to what's coming because back when Flux was released he already knew about Steam Flux and confirmed my guess about it.

I don't think these are right, because doesn't s2 typically say "reduced" rather than "nerfed" in their patch notes?

Whatever happened to warchamp having red name one day and the other just crystal?

So you guys think the keep update will nerf carry keeper with the strength?
