I have my best KDA on AA at 9.5 in 10 games with 8 wins. Such a good poverty support hero. Can hugely contribute to teamfights with nothing more than an aghs without any real threat of dying much since his spells have such long range.
Looking at dotabuff today: I'm amazed more people still don't play warlock. He's a <4% picked hero with a 54% win rate and he's one of the easiest heroes to play in the game.
Love warlock. Besides your heal/DoT, do you max chains first or get some slow levels? Aether or skip it to get aghs /refresher faster?
I usually get a couple levels of Q just because it's easy harass in the laning stage and then put off slow until pretty late. Mek if I think we'll need it/no one else is making one, otherwise straight to aghs and refresher if I have enough gold.
"Just aghs" for a "poverty support." Smh. If you're truly playing poverty support that'll take you like 30 minutes
I mean AA is really good about being able to pick up a few late-early to mid game kills even while doing all those things. Usually expedites the process. Up until that point ice blast is really good even without it.
wow that's a bit surprising. Wonder if he's gonna play with them until he gets his legs back under him before joining a bigger team
Roster lock until Ti. It was either that or just sit on EGs bench. T1 teams can't swap rosters without having to go through open quals so def not worth it for most teams.
Yeah I knew that, was just surprised because he had previously said he wasn't playing competitively again until after ti6. Just wondering if he's planning on jumping ship right after that. Assuming he will if he's still the quality of player he was before his hiatus.
Watching over watch on twitch, it's just a fast paced FPs with like 20 heroes types. What am I missing?
Just had an omni get tilted because I "stole kills" playing as AA. Granted, I may have stolen one early on, but I guess it's my fault too for hitting my ult and spamming my spells in teamfights. Damn me as a team player, what am I thinking. I feel like the game was never in doubt anyway. http://www.dotabuff.com/matches/2385179168
ceg, skiddly, and i just played with an alch that rocked a 999xp and 1.2k gold pm respectively. so needless to say we carried him pretty hard
I got my timber saw/bloodstone quest from being carried. I should never be allowed to Timber ever again.
>>Quest: do lots of magical hero damage. >>Select Zeus >>Complete 3* quest in 18-20 minutes >>lose in 30 minute stomp despite being +kills/deaths. >>Repeat 4 times -100 seasonal MMR in 1 night. >>install over watch
ill be keeping an eye on overmeme I have the sneaking suspicion the playerbase will collapse a la titanfall/brink after a month or two
I don't think overwatch will die but it is difficult to watch. There are too many CSGO "pros" moving to it for it to fizzle in a month or two. Tournaments will start happening soon and you'll see how much or if it has any sustainability in how it is viewed. I love watching dota2 more than I enjoy playing it because I'm so bad that I feel I don't get everything the game has to offer. I love playing csgo because I've played it or its predecessor for 15 years and I've watched tournies for that long too. I've tried to watch some overwatch but there's so much going on and at a frantic pace it is hard to catch everything. Shooters in the past had such few mechanics that it made viewership pretty cookie cutter. Overwatch to the average viewer i think might be overwhelming.
Tried watching overwatch on twitch stream and it's really not a great viewing experience. I would argue even less than CS:go.
GrandGrant I think? He's better than he used to be, but still a rough listen. CoL took game 4 with a Drow strat.
NA Dota getting a big boost with DC who is not at all NA but whatever. Turns out picking up a couple of major winners on your team makes you better, who knew? Wonder how good DC can be when/if they stay together for awhile.
