idk where I was going with this, I got this random thought and felt like posting it
[QUOTE=Louis;49596868]Those were way easier to deal with than Invoker right now[/QUOTE]
are you telling me that the electric mexican was easier than deal with than invoker? wtf
sure, invoker is annoying, but fucking storm spirit could kill you halfway across the map, it was ridiculous and impossible to deal with
storm is a much simpler hero than invoker and any ape could win with that hero. fuck storm
invokers a stronger hero in this meta though, due to the fact he has 8 million spells, can be the #1 decider of a won teamfight, as well as get a blink and jump solo people around the map and solo kill them
I know absolutely nothing about DotA 2 but I am interested and willing to learn, what video tutorials do you guys recommend?

[QUOTE=red_pharoah;49597107]Why are they called "flavour of the month" if patches last for a few months at a time[/QUOTE]
because meta can change even in the middle of a patch lifespan

Its easier to deal with Storm imo, you still get raped by either if you're behind but at least I had better experiences with storm. Invoker is just stupidly obnoxious and can do just about anything. Maybe I got lucky or smth but thats just my OPINION bro.
[editline]24th January 2016[/editline]
Storm gets ahead and its just Zap in fuck you up zap out, you can catch him and do something about it, buy a bkb or something and he cant stun you and you can maybe get away? Invokers just lol tronado emp def blast meteor x D and then if you survive that you cant really fight him because he has like 5 more spells to shit on you and stupid base stats. But thats just how I feel personally... Both heroes were cancer, Invoker just makes me madder.

Storm's potential can be shut down really hard if you manage to get Orchid before he's got BKB after Bloodstone, and you take away his snowball if you manage to kill him 3-4 times in quick succession. Invoker can still shit all over you because of the combo you mentioned.
[QUOTE=Chickens!;49594250]Thats nothing to do with this meta[/QUOTE]
It's worse than usual

Thats what im trying to say but I'm a monkey and just ramble on. In a lot of the storm games I saw back when he was cancer there was no attempt at even stopping him, just "we lost because of storm"

Thing was, by the time you got an orchid the hero already zip zapped around the map getting fat with pick offs.
Also I remember one time I went silencer and forgot storm won't get silenced by last word until ball lightning stops, I was misserable.

He doesn't (or at least used to) get silenced by Global either as long as he's in Ball Lightning which makes (made?) hitting him with Global REALLY fucking difficult before he killed you.

I hate this guy so much now. Not for stacking bfuries on BH but for missing all those fucking tracks.

6.78 allowed Global silence to affect invulnerable units, so that includes Eul's units, as well as Ball Lightning.
However, since Global was dispellable, Storm often would purchase a safety net of Euls before his big ticket items to avoid deaths caused by Global, as well as by other things like Orchid rushes and the like.

Wait, I'm confused. Don't Trolls only summon 2 skeletons each? Unless he meant use their ability twice

from the wiki:
[quote]
The dominated creep is directly bound to the item it was dominated with.
This means it is possible to get multiple helms and have a creep dominated with each. [/quote]
So buy two helmets,[del] but keep them on druid, not on bear (since it has no mana and thus can't use actives that require mana)[/del]

This was actually changed a good while ago.
I remember that immediately after that patch, I saw some random tournament game where a team ran an incredible gimmick strat with the bear where it had Mask of Madness, Ogre's Bloodlust, Beastmaster's Inner Animal, and Omni's Repel. Radiant literally couldn't do anything :v:.

oh right, spirit bear has 300 mana.

I know that, he said to buy 2 helms and dominate 2 Trolls, then "summon 4 skeletons each", but each troll actually summons 2 skeletons, so thats LD+Bear+4 Necro warriors+2 Trolls+4Skeletons is 12 units, not 16.
It's still a shit ton of damage but I was just confused as to why no one corrected him yet
[QUOTE=leonthefox;49512700]It's worrying the amount of people who don't know that tornado purges buffs, or that guardian angel can be purged, or both[/QUOTE]
