[QUOTE=Gar~;40776665]umm not really am has high armor and average hp so feast does literally fuck all to him, also you can break his mana so he cant cast rage or infest and if you go basher (which is legit as fuck on AM) bash him through magic immunity just cause you like lifestealer doesnt mean he beats everyone[/QUOTE] Lifestealer could eat him alive. I've faced a lot of AM's and even with manta and basher while I'm underfarmed, they still had trouble killing me 1v1. Note - This is based off of anecdotal experience
I'm not sure why Naix would eat AM alive when he has almost no HP that Lifestealer needs from his targets.
[QUOTE=maxumym;40779185]I'm not sure why Naix would eat AM alive when he has almost no HP that Lifestealer needs from his targets.[/QUOTE] Just because he doesn't have hp doesn't mean naix won't be able to do damage.

Not for the obvious Lifesteal, but rather for the Magic Immunity that Lifestealer possesses; Mana Break hurts him far less than any other hero. Also, Lifestealer can get a bash/Abyssal Blade too. Mid-game Lifestealer will win against AM 9/10 times, while late-game AM usually has a lot more say. [editline]25th May 2013[/editline] Also, N'aix has his E which will just make ruin an Anti-Mage if he doesn't blink away.

nobody in pubs can play AM, i dont know what it is, probably the ring of health rush combined with the amount of press he gets in dota media and people just pick him thinking he is this awesome insta-win hero
So I had this match where I had to abandon at the start because I had to go suddenly. I come back and see this: [img]http://i.imgur.com/DU1wq1f.png[/img] :v:

People just really fucking suck at farming And people suck at making space for their carries to farm, or realizing how you need to play with an AM on your team It's a bad combo
[QUOTE=OutOfExile2;40779440]People just really fucking suck at farming And people suck at making space for their carries to farm, or realizing how you need to play with an AM on your team It's a bad combo[/QUOTE] Add the fact people love to star with auras that push the lane most of the time.
[QUOTE=devon_wargod;40779062]ok i have more dumb questions if my friend can farm well enough to get a bfury at 10 minutes as antimage would he be at least sorta ready to start learning spectre[/QUOTE] Yes but I don't see why you would. Spectre, imo, is a garbage carry. Has no lane presence whatsoever, no nuke, no crowd control, no proper escape, no flashfarming ability and needs a ton of farm to be effective. Even Medusa/Void can contribute earlygame.
True, early pushing is a bad idea since the ball is in the enemy's court before you are ready for such things. It's one of the reasons why blocking is so important, and why big dudes with a big hitbox are technically a valuable asset. That way, the backside of Tidehunter is in fact a valuable team asset; you don't have to be Admiral Kunkka to appreciate precious booty.
What was the latest patch?

Was in a [URL="http://dotabuff.com/matches/203451990"]Low Priority game.[/URL] Silencer was Russian, bought a courier custom named "Your mother's whore." Windrunner was LightofHeavening people with loads of awesome shackles. Silencer was a disgrace to all Silencers because he wouldn't shut up in voice chat (kept talking in Dirty English) He was like "OMG SLARK GUD PLAYER" and when I miss one pounce on Ballanar, he goes "slark not good player anymore :(" Bought first set of drums, find them gone, buy a second, fair enough because I was wrecking. Thought Silencer did it because I assumed he was on that level. Look through replay. It was Nyx. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/iFxXCWj.jpg[/IMG] That dick.
That Silencer sounds like he was a pimp. Don't hate.
Wait, he threw your Bongos off the donkey? That Nyx sounds like a cunt; low priority's too good for that kinda gutter trash. Also what were you doing in low prio?
[QUOTE=ironman17;40779920]Also what were you doing in low prio?[/QUOTE] TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES or something i forgot but he was disconnected from a game for some reason and could not come back
[url]http://dotabuff.com/matches/203546847[/url] Playing Naga is so fun. Outcarrying a Lifestealer 4v5? Even more fun.
I had a similar experience like that; not the low prio thing, but my machine crapped out and it took ages to reconnect to the game, by which point it was registered as an abandon. To make it worse, it was a game where I was trying to figure out Puck; let's say it didn't end well.

[editline] May 25 2013 [/editline] [QUOTE=TentuZero;40780062]LS with a hand of midas. Well theres your problem there.[/QUOTE] +30 attack speed; great with Feast and how it is benefited by attack speed Increases GPM by 120 on average The fact that Naix is a carry and he needs gold How is it bad?
I played a game an hour ago against a Chen who built hand of midas they won :(

On any other hero it would be OP. Spectre has to have a meh nuke and low stat gain because goddamn Dispersion is game winning.

[QUOTE=TentuZero;40780062]LS with a hand of midas. Well theres your problem there.[/QUOTE] if you can get midas before 8 minutes it's viable on any carry
ok apparently my friend is spectating a bristleback who's going vanguard against a team where the only physical damage is coming from bloodseeker and maybe magnus
Killing a bloodseeker with his own rupture+ forcestaff combo is real fun. I should play Rubrick more often.
So I got a "Inky, the Hexapus". It has 8 views, what does that mean? Does it affect the courier or it's just a number?
