DotA 2: -APEM pros only go fast!

The cast point for hoof stomp is really bad to be fair

 

LSA is a much worse stun IMO

 

Fun fact: swiggle and I once played with a guy who didn't buy a eul's on Lina because "it feels like cheating."

-25 mmr

 

I don't know how the durations compare, but the fact that you can target LSA makes it a better stun.

 

Thanks, I had completely erased that memory from my brain.

 

That poor man must have been absolutely spiritually broken by Dota by now.

 

Target your blink, plebe

 

Also I think split earth is even worse than LSA isn't it?

 

I would agree with that. Just an awful cast delay.

 

I think so, I don't think I've ever hit a split earth in my fucking life. But the radius of it is really nice.

 

blink your lina, what's your point?

it's a targeted spell versus a small aoe on a cast delay

 

This is random as fuck but I was thinking about what the worst spell in dota is.

My vote might go to homing missile.

 

y'all are just bad and don't know how to use ET

he is a god

 

I believe he literally is.

 

Also Midas on necro all day every day.

 

Do you even disco goat?

 

Something was really fucky about swiggle's game I was just watching. There was an invoker on the other team that had vision of enemy heroes in fog. No wards to speak of and he killed AM with sunstrikes while farming neutral camps multiple times. On invoker's team was timber, dark seer, sven, lich, so there was no track or BS thirst or anything like that to speak of.

Go to dotabuff and he has 21 games played, first was 2 days ago, and he's 3300 mmr.

Scripting?

 

Reddit said there was a new map hack patch out about 2 weeks ago and guys were showing it off on twitch.

 

That must have been it.

 

>>First pick Riki pos 4 as usual because yolo
>>first enemy pick BH as usual
>>BH starts game brown boots and clarities
>>BH first item gem at 9 minutes.

>>+25 MMR

 

first clip is great

 

Sing is currently playing timbersaw and diving under tier 2's 7 minutes into the game. He maxed reactive first so they brought in 4 heroes all hitting him at the same time + tower and he got like 3 kills and didn't die

I should really practice timber but I'm sure the hammer is coming in a week.

 

Go slark
9-2-17
5-600gpm/xpm
Teammates PA and NP both jungle

Lose because no one will push and other team has naga and alch.

Seriously why do I play this fucking game.

 

But ability draft is the goat.

SB charge into CM ult yolololololol ez solo kills.

 

I don't think Timber is too far out of balance currently. Hope he doesn't get nerfed too much.

 

3 loss streak

tried supporting each time and we lost mid HARD each game and lost

welp

 

How were your rotations?

Couple more mid thoughts:

1. If I know the enemy has a weak lv1 mid (invoker, shadow fiend, alch, etc) I'll help mid from the start to get him rolling.
2. I'm learning to leave my safelaner one on one as soon as he's established a level and farm advantage (and communicating with him that I'll be doing as much.)
3. If I can zone effectively at lv1 (assuming solo offlane) I am free to stack/pull and really get the ball rolling. If it's an aggro dual, I know my mid is a bit safer to one v one.

Best thing is feeling out my cores, who will be able to communicate with me and who will need the most babysitting. It's amazing how much a TP response shifts a lane.

 

4 in a row

i get talked into supporting again

guy decides to go offlane AM vs sven/dazzle

gets no farm

-25 mmr

 

Too many people think supporting is just 'buying courier and wards', then sitting in the lane with your carry and not taking last hits.

Then they wonder why they lose.

 

went from being up 12-2 because of early domination in top/mid to like 20 unanswered kills bc sven + dazzle is gayer than aids

 

Kills me when a support just sits in lane against a solo offlaner and leech experience and do nothing. Once the offlaner is zoned you gtfo off the wave and get xp through pulling.

Of course it's a little different if you're against a dual offlane or a really strong solo offlaner.

 

>reported
>muted
>abandon

 

also love the 'mid no gank we lose' school of thought.

Well dumbass, our mid is getting crushed. Maybe, idk, come gank the enemy mid for him?

 

Honestly not sure why I queue anything but ability draft. Mode is so fun

 

i even just lost w/ clinkz

force 50 is real and is powered by the universe

 

from 2900 to 2700

WHAT IS THIS CRUEL WORLD

 

Just had to abandon a sweet ability draft due to dad duty.

Magnus:
Empower
Sadist
Ancient seal
Reaper's scythe

First two for ez farm.
Last 2 for Dagon into ult. (Ancient seal 45% magic damage amp lolololololol)

Unfortunately had to abandon before I got Dagon farmed. :(

 

last 7 games all losses

this is all after winning like 13 in a row

 

pick a cancerous hero

 

Fuck Peru. No idea why those fucking dipshits won't queue in spanish. That country's made up of a bunch of mongoloids.

 

pick weaver

+25 mmr

 

You're welcome for the advice

 

Google fiber discontinued their free internet in KC (but let the people who already had it keep it) and my wifi has been absolute shit lately. Speed test ran at 1.2 megabits tonight I wanna believe they're throttling my internet so I bite the bullet and start paying for more bandwidth.

Might have to just do it because this shit is unbearable.

 

I'm watching this now and it's cracking my shit up. Killing the Alch 3 times before 5 mins was ridiculous.

Fuck, now I want to play him. skiedfrillet for sure remembers that last timber game.

 

i knew i should have went to bed after my weaver victory

miles watched my next game and saw the complete incompetence of my team

good times

 

Crit is gonna get a drafting clinic ran on him today IMO

 

This IGV-VP game has been great

 

Oh man, IGV had that game and threw it in the span of about 10 seconds

 

Fun game 2
