[QUOTE=leonthefox;40914089]Most of the time someone picks medusa I assume it will be a defeat
"Don't worry I know how to farm" proceed to get a 30-40 mins linkens and keep being useless
and is not just knowing how to farm, but your team keeping map control for her to have a place to right click stuff[/QUOTE]
I had a pubbie pick medusa my last game and I asked if s/he was okay at farming, they reply "im new 2 ths hero xD ill try farm"
My friend is Lich supporting her and I'm Beastman and I'm not too hot on the scoreboard but I've kinda been calling the shots all game and we're getting rocked hard and like 45 mins in when they're raxing us I see in chat "hey NoShogun what item should I get?" and I'm thinking "oh great babby's first item all game" but I click on her and she's already got boots, Butterfly, Linkin's, and Manta and like 6500 stored up in gold.
we won that game. So every once in a while, a pub really can farm.

[QUOTE=devon_wargod;40914991]well i got matched up with a rubick that said "i not buy wards u buy" and i'm still in normal bracket so obviously this is the case[/QUOTE]
I played with someone who was in low prio once and down there, if you ward it's actually just worse for your team b/c they assume having this mysterious ward vision makes them invincible so they initiate 3v5's and shit
[QUOTE=BuffaloBill;40912254]It's both hilariously broken and a significant nerf, imo. Nukers like Lina stand no chance whatsoever, but most carries out-autoattack him while he's still as vulnerable as ever against stuns.[/QUOTE]
it completely destroyed the LS build, the whole point of the extra damage was to be balanced in the center health wise.
[QUOTE=l l;40915002]blame the bracket and others
it won't kill you to buy wards if you aren't a support[/QUOTE]
he only bought just the walking courier and a single set of dust
So, how I edit replays?
As a person who plays medusa every so often, I can safely say that medusa is not the kind of hero you want to pick in a pub. Especially if you don't have a friend or two supporting you. She requires a quite a bit of lane support and she usually cannot help the team much in the early to midgame. This forces her team to pick either pushing heroes, or heroes that can stop a push and delay the enemy from taking towers/barracks. With an uncoordinated team, her uselessness is prolonged. But a coordinated team will turn her into an unconquerable late game monster.
The only counter to Medusa is to end the game before she starts carrying (or pick faceless and hope for permabashes), which is unfortunately pretty late into the match. But with her new buff, it could be possible for her to turn on even faster and her hardcounter status against Cancer Lancer is increased.
She's a great hero, but only if your team is coordinated.

I wish you could free roam like in tf2 replays. I know about that one console command, but as far as I know you're stuck in that one spot.

oh god, that´s the most awful courier IMO.
I dislike this one more.

not enough kickass couriers like the grillhound.
That thing looks like it should be in League rather than Dota, tbh. Then again, I don't think that League has the donkey, since you have the B function that warps you to fountain.
Ramnaught of underwool reigns above all overs in cuteness and badassness
Alliance picked riki.
Fucking hell they picked spectra the previews game. Get your asses on tubby's stream.
[QUOTE=l l;40914866]no
some people unpause repeatedly and then when they need a pause they expect one regardless of their previous unpauses[/QUOTE]
Well today I had a teammate who got kicked a few times due to some bug, the other team actually waited for us four times, later on same thing happened to one of their players, and we waited, It's nice to see mutual respect and understanting
And speaking about getting disconnected/kicked from the game, has this been fixed?
Captain Bamboo still the most stupid courier of all alongside the spider.
Wyrmeleon still best courier.
with chameleon mount i'm all set

speed demon is still the best, mainly cause his animation

It's funny when people say "Dota 2 will never have unfitting items" when it's already getting all these stupid as fuck couriers that don't fit the game's setting at all. It always starts off small and I'm scared it'll get bigger. :(
Hasn't that mini-Pudge courier been in the game files forever? Wonder if that's ever going to come out.

Too bad you only see it once or twice before it's flying, and I hate the flying animation. Doesn't have that same pizzazz.

the problem with the couriers isn't that they don't fit the setting, it's more of a slippery slope of "cuteness".
we keep getting these really cute couriers with big anime eyes then the next courier is an even cuter one with bigger anime eyes
eventually we'll just have a giant anime eye beholder courier and everyone will think it looks like a ward

Probably won't, but you can always swap it's files for X courier and have it ingame

So, is it fair to say that amongst the Dota 2 community that doesn't particularly like the cute couriers that this guy still gets a free pass?

That's far from cute. It's the same level of "cute" as the default courier, since it's just an animal with nothing special about it. The cutesy couriers that everyone is talking about are the new bear, Itsy, etc. etc. etc.
