[QUOTE=joshuadim;50550894]Secret is dumpster tier and EG is so goddamn shaky from so many roster changes[/QUOTE] I'm pretty sure Secret would have been invited to regionals if it wasn't for dropping Universe for Bulba. Likewise I'm pretty sure EG would have been direct invited due to TI5 if it wasn't for dropping Bulba for Universe and Aui for Zai.
Why does eg need to qualify they were the last champions Newbee didn't with huge changes last year [editline]19th June 2016[/editline] They weren't even invited to quals? Am I seeing this right? [editline]19th June 2016[/editline] Didn't drinking boys disband? This is really fucking stupid tbh

[editline]19th June 2016[/editline] Change roster after roster lock = Forfeit direct invites AND regionals invites

This is really fucking stupid tbh[/QUOTE] It's because they traded players inside the roster lock, but it was also after both teams were KO'd of Manila. Secret and EG are not even playing in any other tournaments until TI except for Nanyang. They're not going to StarLadder/i-League and they're not going to The Summit.
Na'Vi will be in top 4 for TI6 OG win TI6 Can't wait m8
Holy shit, I got matched with the same five stack with my five stack twice in a row. We both won a game and we are gonna have a 3rd game tomorrow to see who will win a best of 3. The hypest shit.

[QUOTE=The Janitor;50553779][video=youtube;3Atwii7Ewh8]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Atwii7Ewh8[/video][/QUOTE] Pretty sad the armlet timing is sometimes faster than what I can get mid considering the punishment people dish out on alch and general indifference of teammates. I'd say one in ten alch games I get a support that makes stacks somewhere (I always do my own, but extra never hurt). Near every game there are one, often two people repeatedly ganking mid. Mind you, jungling undisturbed with alch is pretty much a fantasy also.
[QUOTE=Clovis;50540381]Were you playing against a retard? Seriously past level 1. You imprison him, his weak as shit illusions give him free regen stacks, and he can just timberchain out[/QUOTE] Use Shadow Poison, lmao. Why would you use disrupt for anything other than to stop him from chaining?
[QUOTE=uber.;50554588]Use Shadow Poison, lmao. Why would you use disrupt for anything other than to stop him from chaining?[/QUOTE] Ok so you save disruption for when he's chaining How do you get shadow poison stacks [editline]20th June 2016[/editline] How do you Soul Catcher him either? That's also kind of big for killing him
You push the lane with poison too if the timber isn't stupid.
[QUOTE=uber.;50554588]Use Shadow Poison, lmao. Why would you use disrupt for anything other than to stop him from chaining?[/QUOTE] that works great when you're laning against a braindead timber who can't dodge shadow poison, and also if you magically started the game at level 5 so that it actually deals damage
Or if Timber wasn't smart enough to buy a raindrop
The literally only reason to pick Shadow Demon is all his skills not titled "shadow poison"
[QUOTE=uber.;50554588]Use Shadow Poison, lmao. Why would you use disrupt for anything other than to stop him from chaining?[/QUOTE] If you picked Shadow Demon to harass a Timbersaw and ruin his day with Shadow Poison, there's a hero called Skywrath who does that better.
What's with the jungling venomancers? Some pro does something once and all the shitters are copying them.
[QUOTE=ferrus;50556750]What's with the jungling venomancers? Some pro does something once and all the shitters are copying them.[/QUOTE] You can reach level 6 with Tranquils Basi Blightstone by around 4:40 if you jungle properly. He's actually the fastest jungler in the game, which is fantastic since he's never had a good spot on the map before, needing some XP and levels but not enough to truly justify mid or safelane farm.

We had a jungle Veno that wasn't doing bad, but he didnt come out of the jungle until after level 11
I've been playing dota for years now but i've somehow just now played my very first Bounty Hunter game he is very much fun
[IMG]http://puu.sh/pAiSJ/58a2cab10e.jpg[/IMG] I'm not 100% sure but did he report my steam profile This is what I get for spamming mana drain
I haven't been following or playing Dota recently, but I'm hyped for the upcoming International. I gotta ask though, why wasn't EG invited? Weren't they last year's winners?
[QUOTE=Yahnich;50559246]they broke the roster lock rules[/QUOTE] oh snap, fair enough then
