[QUOTE=Ross_C;49651086]Hey guys, I'm really determined to actually finish an item set for Dota and I think I've improved and learned a bunch. But Omniknight's color palette is so strange with all that white that I'm not sure if my original color scheme is good:
A was the original color scheme I went with based mainly on his cape but it seems a little too red and yellow for him, or maybe it doesn't? Which of these looks the best or any suggestions?[/QUOTE]
D in my opinion. But D with a lighter gray, pretty much the same white color as omni himself and or E but with a lighter shade of gold.
[QUOTE=Goodwell;49651740]Okay, been a WHILE since i played this. Ended up leaving it and selling off all my inventory in a salt-fueled fireball.
But now i've got the urge to get back into it. Any major changes i need to be alerted to?[/QUOTE]

So I lost over 300mmr and something over 20 games total in 2-3 days, some in normal mm while trying to do Quests, or namely, midas-before-10 quest.
The worst thing is, every game where I played core (WK, Slark, Bristle, WR, etc) I lost, even if my farm wasn't subpar. I'd cram in midas in most of WK and Slark games, but it'd never be later than 5-6 mins tops.
However, amongst this derailed wreck of dota games, I have 2 games :
- one where I picked Rubick, did shitton of solosupporting duty and in the end I was the guy who was stopping AM from rolling over us with all the stolen CC.
- one where I picked Earthshaker, saved 2050 gold before minute 10 (0 items, got some regen early to get us kills in lane), bought midas, sold midas, proceed to wreck enemy team's Invoker, BM and LC's day, stopping their comboes/solokills almost every time.

I play a lot of Dota, watch a lot of Dota and I know that most of what I do in Dota is providing clean, gold-efficient and readily availiable supporting in a variety of shapes and forms. But this is rather crushing to see myself incapable of winning game for my team soloely as Core, be it mid or safelane.
Also, this is just a bizzare little detail that carries over my only 2 good games over past days :

Well fuck me, the one time I find out the enemy smoked and warn my team, they go and engage. I am considering to start using reverse psychology
Also nice, they fixed the welcome to the jungle quest.

like im sorry but your dotabuff is inactive and in those 10 minutes you bought nothing perhaps a bracer an urn a salve a ward anything could have helped the enemy not to snowball

I have a 75% winrate with Techies across 16 games, I think Techies is fine as long as you aren't that asshole who spends the entire game placing mines in the river and getting no XP. Plus I see people who only play Techies and they seem to still be doing perfectly fine with him.

While 13 of these matches were when Techies wasn't the worst hero in the game. Congrats.

Oh I thought I had more games than that after 6.85, either way why is Techies the worst hero in the game now as opposed to before?

You whining about Techies being shit should be almost bannable
Techies needs buffs.

Dude, I said I got us kills early as ES in that game. I think it was first blood, followed by 1 or 2 more assisst at least. Having no boots and just a clarity to spare. Then at 10 minute mark, having done Quest, I was rocking my soulring + tranqs, stopping enemy's initiations left and right (Invoker Euls, LC duels = fissure to the face).
We won that game pretty hard with my 27 assissts, which is more than any 2 other of my teammates assissts combined, and Venge wasn't slacking with her supporting duties.

Hey, there's one reason I'd want Techies back in 6.86.
If his presence could single-handedly change the meta from being this shit where a lost fight at 20 minutes is an automatic barracks, then hell yeah, I'd prefer mine-watching duty over 6.81's revegeance.
[editline]yeah [/editline]

And that's the thing I forgot to mention yes thank you, the Euls.
Took from me quite an effort but here we go, new undying taunt with ult form preview

What i love espechially is how loud his footsteps are in ult form, we really need more silly-badass stuff like this.
also it looks like pitlord hype is back, they better release him before ti6

The amount of people that didn't notice the Techies stealth buff is surprising, really

The xp buff just made him playable hes still the worst hero in the game
it's not about the xp it's about the fact you can get comeback gold from long range mine kills again which is what was killing the hero in the first place
