[QUOTE=justaris;41012863]I think the 'luck factor' (like in Ogre Magi, Void, Phantom Assasin, Skeleton King) make it not considered good in a competitive game, and as you can see, they rarely pick heroes with skill that has a 'chance of happening'.[/QUOTE] Chaos Knight.

And late game, PA and Void aren't 'luck-based,' it's pseudo-random on agility carries (which attack fast) so you're going to be hardpressed to NOT get a lot of bashes/crits on them.
I don't know how but I got a 200 hour communication ban. What did I do oh god
[QUOTE=PSI Guy;41012882]Chaos Knight.[/QUOTE] i thought the reason ck was popular was the fact that his stun, even on a bad day, was still decent (1 second at the least), reality rift pulls people in from a mile away, and he himself was durable to begin with, along with the crits and illusions to scale into lategame so things that are good or at least decent even on a bad day

I'm just sick of seeing Naix, when I see him chosen I almost want to X out.
[QUOTE=Gareth;41012854]hey quick question did they remove the ability of denying gems? i've died like 5 times now because i'm busy fumbling trying to drop my iron branches to pick it up because i can;t deny them[/QUOTE] Gem of True Sight - Gem can no longer be destroyed From the 6.78 changelog.
[QUOTE=RainbowStalin;41012980]I don't know how but I got a 200 hour communication ban. What did I do oh god[/QUOTE] The DotA community is so shit, people will com-report eachother every fucking game. Sometimes it's very warranted; there's a lot of shit talkers (a LOT). But other times, it's not. You can run into plenty of BR stacks on US East still, and they'll report you for just being American, and by the off chance that your next game you get matched up with another idiot like that, you're now com-banned. Now also due to the nature that if you've been banned before (even if wrongly), a single report can land you into it again is retarded. Let's say you stomp the shit out of some really bad Ursa, and he reports you because you've been ganking him this whole game, you're now com-banned again with no fault to you. It's a stupid system. I've been in two games now where my [i]entire[/i] team besides me was com-banned. We lost because nobody could call missing, organize ganks, and so on. All I got all game was 'Well Played! Well Played! [i]Ping Ping Ping Ping[/i]. Well Played! Missing Middle!,' and amidst all of that I had no way of doing anything remotely organized with my team. I'd rather have shit talkers on my team than bots, because that's what this system has turned people into.

[QUOTE=Totenkreuz;41013024]I'm just sick of seeing Naix, when I see him chosen I almost want to X out.[/QUOTE] Pick Ursa. Provided Naix doesn't get a TON of farm advantage on you Ursa roflstomps all over Naix.
[QUOTE=BuffaloBill;41013487]Pick Ursa. Provided Naix doesn't get a TON of farm advantage on you Ursa roflstomps all over Naix.[/QUOTE] I meant in comp games, but good tip anyway
[QUOTE=BuffaloBill;41013487]Pick Ursa. Provided Naix doesn't get a TON of farm advantage on you Ursa roflstomps all over Naix.[/QUOTE] Or Viper Or Spirit Breaker if you have balls of steel edit Or Doom
[QUOTE=Nestophales;41013796]Or Viper Or Spirit Breaker if you have balls of steel edit Or Doom[/QUOTE] Doom is a really iffy counter; it's all on whether Doom has his ultimate ready to use or not. He is a high HP, low armor hero, so Naix shits all over him whenever Doom can't place a pentagram over him.

Four of them have win rates less than 50%...

[QUOTE=TentuZero;41014367]Don't we all? :v:[/QUOTE] I have more than 50% with Rubick.... i think...

Okay, can someone back me up here that Aghs is not necessary or even the best item choice on Pugna? I played against a guy who was telling me that my Pugna build was sucking because I didn't have scepter. [sp]Meanwhile I almost got a rampage and went 13/3/10[/sp] I got sick of arguing with him because he fervently believed that scepter rush is the best choice on him. [editline]13th June 2013[/editline] Also I'm getting fed up with Vengeful spirit players who insist on building her like a carry and refusing to believe she's a good support hero. It's happened to me like 3 times in the last week.

Anybody else getting the "Lost connection to Steam" problem where everything is gone, except the front page? Restarting helps.

Whoa, just noticed that change...
[QUOTE=titopei;41014727]It's not that it's essential, it's just really annoying. Like holy shit stop taking my life my stun is on cool down calm the fuck down[/QUOTE] True, but decrepify into blast and drain is usually enough on it's own if positioned and timed correctly. Personally I'd rather have picked up mek and drums for the cash i would've spent on the scepter, then build a scythe or possibly a shiva's if i needed the armor.
