    Since I jumped from badge 15 to 21 after one game, my next games have been fucking intense. Like people know what the fuck they are doing.

    Opponent's weaver just went 44-5-19. Craziest fucking guy I've ever played with or against.

    Holy fuck Lone Druid is fun. What items do you guys roll on Bear/LD? Got an early radiance for Bear, good lord, was just rolling in cash.

    Brown boots x2 -> Bear phase, orb of venom, and situational midas -> Druid tranquils -> Bear Radiance -> Bear maelstrom -> Druid Vlad's -> Bear basher and AC (sell OoV if needed) -> Druid Refresher. After that it's your discretion, if you even get there.

    Never would have thought of the Refresher but makes sense.

    Do you ever get an Aghs to Bear Rat and push 2 lanes?

    Yeah, if your bear gets killed late game and you don't have resummon, you're fucked. I've never tried it, but if your team can't win a 5v5 late, it could be a good idea.

    there really aren't many streams that aren't pro players or commentators.

    Browse the dota 2 twitch page and you'll probably find some amateurs once you get past the top 10-15 streams

    Yeah prosumer level guys are good. Like making your living in dota is fine for what I'm looking for, just not team members of evil geniuses or team liquid or whatever.

    Keep an eye out for guys like Purge, Merlini, Syndern, Wagamama. They're more on the commentator side, but good players that like to teach as they play.

    But most of the top streamers are pros.

    PPD always has to prove he's the smartest drafter in the game : /

    Gives miracle Invoker, who might be better with the hero than anyone else is with any hero in dota this patch, and he murders them with it. PPD then lets him have it again. 0-2. I know he likes to try to be one step ahead of other teams and counter-draft, but there are some players you just can't give certain heroes, and that's one of them.

    Full matches are usually up almost immediately after the game on youtube. Highlights usually a couple hours later. Dota 2 highlights daily is a good account

    SingSing is still a mechanically elite player.

    The game has simply passed him by. He makes too much money streaming and doing nothing to bother putting in the grind it takes to be a successful professional.

    Invoker wasn't the problem. It was oracle completely nullifying batrider that was the problem.

    Man, never seen such misplaced outrage as reading doto nerds irate tirades against the new red Skyrath skins.

    Unbelievable.

    they have a point.

    valve had a bunch of rules early on about cosmetics that lead to a bunch of awesome shit being excluded while a bunch of awful shit got in, like alpine stalker ursa.

    After alpine stalker, valve cracked down, but now all sorts of insane shit is getting in.

    Skywrath's new cosmetics make him hard as fuck to distinguish quickly from LC or dragon knight.

    not to mention, a bunch of the sets just look the same now. everyone is trying to one up everyone else and now everything has to be a complete set and have 10 new particle effects and all sorts of weird shit
