EPTDunno what to think about the new patch yet, but I know one thing: Mirana needs a buff to improve her laning phase, +5 dmg or agi would do the trick. Pennant if you agree!

I think running AA in a 2 position to farm a quick aghs would be an interesting play that I'd like to see tried out a few times. Having a 17 second up-time on the debuff is massive and if you pair this with a second global ult whether it is NP, zeus, silencer aghs or spectre, I think there will be a lot easy kills to be had. Of course this relies on the AA farming an aghs in decent time without holding back the team too much. I think the hero makes for a good 1v1 mid but of course with low hp (492 base), low strength gain (1.4 str per level), below average MS (295) and no escape, it becomes quite susceptible to any early gank. Either way, I think the hero is definitely very interesting now and worth exploring if it can be fit into a line-up. | ||

 It's a lot of fun to watch pro dota atm, with new heroes being brought into the meta.Hopefully the time difference wont affect you guys to much, and hopefully DHS can bring TL back to the dominating shape like pre-G1. Will cheer for TL as always! FIGHTING~ ps. get hotbid(or someone) to take a team photo, dota2 and sc2 players! That would be cool to see ^_^ (no need for pennant, already got it) | ||

Or that your own level of Play isn't up to what it was Before? Thanks for the Answer..And huskar is Fucking stupid after the Patch haha. Would like a TL Pennant too :3 since I will be betting a lot of Items on your opponents so that you guys Ensure Victory (0% Betrate Yo..10 bets made in total.40 items lost :D). Liquid Fighting ! Honestly it's a weird mix of things. I'm not completely sure of what the main reasons are myself but I have a good idea. I'd rather not talk about them though here until we're out of our rut so I know for sure what they are.

I know Alliance favors doom and it wouldn't surprise me to see other Western teams pick him up.

Good luck at Dreamhack! Hope you guys can win it all. And a pennant would not go amiss =P I don't think Pugna will be seeing any play in strategies unless he's used as a counter to heroes with high mana cost spells or in conjunction with a pushing strat.

This has probably been discussed somewhere but whats up with TC playing mid recently and you on the carries, I preferred having him farming while you're diving&dying. If I see a QoP picked I kind a expect to see Korok QoP. Already got my pennant! Trying to win games is our first priority ;P. To be honest, I'm already missing the mid role just because of the heroes I play on middle. I feel like these hard carries like AM are very one dimensional and don't allow very much space to do anything but split farm and come to fight after farming for 20 minutes (bfury/manta).

Doctor outfit not possible, but Razor is already pickable. Teams just haven't given him a chance. Remember that with tree armor any hero can solo any hero. D: | ||

On June 13 2013 16:13 Fornozo wrote: Very nice read Korok! However I would have appreciated you going a tad more in-depth about the item changes rather just just aknowledging that they happened. Maybe this is hard since you only have 1 week to play on this patch and if that is the case it's very understandable. Regarding the patch, I think biggest nerf in this patch was the change to wisp spirits not giving vision as this heavily nerfs the wisp/ck combo as long as someone reacts in time. I agree that wisp as a hero might have needed a slight tweak but this was over doing it in my opinion. Perhaps only lowering the vision a little or lowering the relocate timer to 10seconds would be a better way to change the hero. As you mentioned the open wounds nerf doesn't really affect naix in the laster stages of the game as most people buy phase drums/sny anyway, but it really hurts his agressive trilane potential as initiating with openwounds on anyone but a melee farmer is pretty much impossible now. I cannot speak a lot about the other changes but a hero I really like that has gotten attention in this patch is naga siren. Teams like yourselves and EG have been using her as a mid solo to sometimes great effect and sometimes not so much. People like Felony from NAdota have been using her in agressive trilanes to great effect and this is something I think proteams should be trying out as well. I always thought of her as a very nice 2/3 position hero in an agressive trilane due to riptide but thought her basedamage was to low until this patch but with a 10second cooldown on riptide that makes up for it. That's all I have to say about the patch I think, shoutout to IXDLO, corey, Rime, OTC aka wongstealer, and all the rest of you. Good luck in dreamhack to you as well as everyone else and if you could convince Bdiz to play mirana ever on stream I'd be so grateful! This reply doesn't give yours justice but I am severely time limited. Trilane naga is very strong and some teams we have scrimmed have run that. As far as items go none of them are gamebreaking but some are definitely more significant than others and I could've gone into that.

If I do drink it'll be with Bdiz and Universe. They're both alcoholics so I'm sure I'll be dead by the end of the night. On June 13 2013 17:04 Shaella wrote: Good luck at dreamhack! But you don't think Quantic will make it through the group? I think they're better than Fnatic right now <3 Anyhow, i'm rootin for you guys at DHS (pennant would be nice ^_^) That was one of my tough decisions. Quantic also runs very odd strategies that seem to work. I believe in Fnatic though! They were the kings of Dreamhack in HoN | ||

About the new patch, really like the way how B+P works now, and more options to be played at tournament since all the nerf and buff to the heroes but i found that TL's team fight decision is still quite shaky, specially about the position. Always some here and there mistakes. Great to watch, but not always confident to see you guys winning as a spectator. | ||

Good luck though! I'll be watching as much as I can. Something's been off lately, and I'm pretty sure it's Dreamhack withdrawals. | ||

I got many of them, so just let me know if you want one. OT: Good luck at Dreamhack Korok! | ||
