Also disruptor is only good vs slark if you've established an early lead vs him, without it you will die too easily

also if you look at only the LAN finals of the summit 5 (which was the most recent part of the tournament, so it's much more reflective of the current meta) slark was only picked 4 times out of 36 matches, with a 25% winrate
edit: the only time that slark won a game was when OG (arguably the best team in the world) picked him against FDL (definitely the weakest team at the tournament)
[QUOTE=aydin690;50787368]I "ban" slark in every single game. Has greatly improved my enjoyment of ranked matchmaking.[/QUOTE]
I've banned Lifestealer every game for the past couple of months, definitely improved the games drastically.

Why is there always a Mirana in the artwork? They could at least fix her model face.
[QUOTE=aurum481;50788504]Why is there always a Mirana in the artwork? They could at least fix her model face.[/QUOTE] No need, they are hiding it. Plus they got a high-res model anyway that they use for posters and all that.
Any ways to launch dota VR hub without headset? Plz:cry:

heroes with good laughs are exceptions
like shadow demon and outbox deliverer
If we want to talk about lame first blood lines, [URL="https://hydra-media.cursecdn.com/dota2.gamepedia.com/d/df/Phass_firstblood_01.mp3"]Phantom Assassin is one of them.[/URL]
Feels like they meant the voice line to be "First Blood, First Victim" but then just said fuck it and split them both up.

Dota 2 feels so weird having not played for so long. Nothing feels "natural" anymore. Everything is strange to me now.
Clinkz has the title of my favorite first blood line, due to being punny and ironic. Also, I discovered the awesomeness that is playing Ancient Apparition. I always though he was shit, but Jesus Christ.

the .25s delay? that's been there since dota1 i think, and laguna blade has it too
No, he means being able to see how much the spell amplification affected an ability due to intelligence. It was probably added in one of the last couple of patches.
Well, this is interesting.
Redbull announced the Heroicks Tournament and this doesn't follow the normal rules of a dota 2 tournament.
Instead it has some sort of life point system.
[QUOTE]
THE LIFE SYSTEM
A complete new tournament mode makes your experience even more thrilling.
This is how it works:
Life System replaces standard tournament grid
Each team is granted 3 lifes for the tournament
With each game lost, one life gets deducted
Each match winner selects the two teams for the following match
A team that was just involved in a game must pause (as long as still possible)
Red Bull Heroicks Champion is the last team still having one or more lifes left
[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE]
THE HERO CHALLENGE
Be part of the game by voting a special hero for the pro players.
This is how it works:
Before the Pick & Ban phase of each game the Caster Team decides two heroes for the voting
You, the audience, live-votes one of those heroes as the special hero for the next match
Pick & Ban: The teams pick their heroes for the match – the special hero cannot be banned
If the winner team chose the special hero the team/player gets rewarded right away
[/QUOTE]
Confirmed participants: OG and Alliance.

What if they don't pick the special hero?
