I'd say so. You get the courier (which you can customise once TI3 starts by watching matches), you get some nice info about each person taking part, the event in general, and 2.50 is added to the final prize pool, with rewards for certain stretch goals.
We've got the first goal for sure (the exp/drop bonus) and who knows? Maybe it'll hit 2 to unlock courier stages? Very very very slim chance of 3 though.

I tried, I really did, but I can't hear 'Vodka Advance'.
I mean yeah sure I can fool myself into thinking it when I'm not listening to the source at the same time but that's as close to Vodka Advance as I can get.
My diagnosis: "I am russian".

But I do actually hear that. I guess it just boils down to on-spot logic that goes on in my cabbage that makes it acceptable, thus instead of rejecting it and repeating the understanding process it keeps current result.
Right Click on enemy = Move (or rather, Advance) towards enemy
I tend to make bad decisions = Move towards enemy with advantage
I am reluctant to not go through with my decision if it's not critically bad and I trust myself to be able to overcome slightly infavourable odds = I follow through "advancing towards enemy"
"What coward runs?" is Jugg's response to attacking command. I hear the "Vodka Advance"
I am = advancing towards enemy.
Decision to do that = rather bad.
Rather bad decision = influenced by something.
Common source of bad influence = alcohol.
Alcohol = Vodka.
Vodka Advance
Logic. The special kind of it.
Interesting the "Nature" HUD seems like a re-imagined night elf HUD from the original Dota
kind of neat.

Why not a full drinks shelf? You could have a mini-bar following you around.
I've always felt that Windrunners ult was so... well, worthless. If you have enough items to make it work, you've probably already won, and without farm, it does nothing, really.
It really would fit Drow much better, which would be a step up from the boring lolmorestats, and would enable her to focus a high-value target if her team is competent. Maybe it could be like Slarks ult, an active with a passive component, increased agility (but not as much as it currently gives) when no heroes are within 300-400 range and a focus fire with a semi-long cooldown.
Dunno what Windrunner should get instead, but it would probably be have to be a more support oriented skill.

Since Jugg is "wooden-samurai" style, I think going a bit sake-overflow with him is neat idea for set/items.
And Sake = alcohol
Alcohol = Vodka
Logic.
The sword should be a giant bottle-opener.
I would love if Valve added a Alien skin for Bane and added facehuggers to the animation of "Nightmare". And also add a line in which Bane says "In your dreams no one can hear you scream".

It's ok, but I just feel that if you get that much time just beating on a tower, you're gonna take it down anyway, with or without the ult.

And if someone tp's in to defend, you've just wasted a lot of mana and the cooldown.

Why do so many people think PL is OP?
PL is a hero who becomes a carry THROUGH LEVELS, not mainly farm but some of that too.
Just fucking gank him god damn it, he is utter shit early game in every way except his spear.
Doppelwalk = Buy dust and kill him on the spot because it doesn't make him a whole lot faster and he has almost no HP.

Since the ult doesn't break on moving away, you can easily just move up the stairs to an enemy tier 3 tower and get some good damage in before your creep wave dies out and you have to go back down the stairs.
The duration is long enough for you to do this with a few creep waves, although the ult break on target change does mean that if someone attacks you, you're forced to either flee with Windrun or lose your bonus attack speed. If there's a teamfight going, this does mean you either win the fight to take the tower, or wait for your cooldown to run out. Either way, it's only really good for getting big amounts of damage to the one tower in short bursts.

The problem is that Windrunner's other three skills are all amazing.
If her ult was replaced by something universally useful, she would become an OP terror that makes Nyx look like a joke pick.

uhhhh
by that logic everybody in the game is a great pusher because you autoattack that tower as Spirit Breaker long enough and it's going down!
focus fire cuts the time to kill a tower by like 75% which is important

Yeah, it would be hard to replace it with something equal but different, but I just feel that it doesn't fit her theme that well.

I just don't feel it does that much of an impact tbh, especially since it reduces her damage output too, but yeah it's ok.
can someone help me out with centaur?
I do so well as him early-mid game but if i dont manage to get a heart before the late game I fall on my ass
Get a Blink Dagger and a Hood, don't overestimate your HP pool, stop thinking you can solo kill people after 25 minutes (unless you're against baddies).
[QUOTE=Harpie;40581604]can someone help me out with centaur?

Always be aware of potential teamfights and use your ult to 5-man initiate or use it to allow your teammates to escape. Get blink and stomp several dudes at a time. Spam Double Edge to push lanes quicker when you have enough hp to do so. Dunno what else.
