So yeah, I played 300 games with one of the most one dimensional and boring heroes in Dota2, in most of the cases as a solid position 6.
http://www.dotabuff.com/players/131465760/matches?date=&hero=vengeful-spirit&skill_bracket=&lobby_type=&game_mode=®ion=&faction=&duration=
My winrate moves between 57-58%, depending if im solo queuing or playing in a stack - obviously if you are playing selfless 6th position support communication is super important. So if there are other diehard support players who enjoy buying wards all game, swapping their carries out of trouble and dying in the process - you are not alone. I genuinely love supporting and I wish more people appreciate players who will rather have the entire map warded all game than getting a quick force staff.

Vindictive ex-girlfriend?
That's a lot of VS games, Jesus. I enjoy supports who ward and such, I like playing those. But I like more the free-roaming of them. Like Ogre Magi, I love playing because you don't have to sit in your lane and do nothing.

I think they can both roam. Venge and Orge have almost identical stun ranges and moment speeds. I don't think you would have any problems roaming with VS.

So little solo kill potential with this hero makes it really boring to play :S

they can, but ogre has a bit more trouble since hes melee and has a longer cast animation. wave of terror is very good for chasing too

Easy to play, hard to master. Well except blood seeker, that hero isn't rocket science.
|
You are quite right. Venge can't exactly make plays either, so the hero feels boring and all you can do is throw the occasional stun and swap an enemy hero or save your ally with a swap.

Nazgul has over 1000 games on BS, I will never reach that with venge.
I play mid on radiant every now and then - you can stack the ancients without leaving the lane with wave. Useful if you have tide or luna on the team. Also venge does pretty ok against pudge but obviously gets fucked hard by other popular mids like sniper and lina

how much games does kennigit have with disruptor?

And I thought playing venge for 98/99 straight times was hard core. Someone instapicked venge for the 99th or 100th game, so yeah that kinda pissed me off. Most of those games were on Solo Queue.
imo, if you dual roam with venge with another aggressive support like Ogre, Skywrath, etc. You can go 1-2-2-1 so you guys can get from the right clicks. leveling up the stun just drains the manapool faster. Also, you can stun-wave-stun if someone tps in to chase.
But damn, it's always nice to see fellow position 6 players around  )

I have over 300 games on WD, but it is spread over different accounts. The one with the most is the below one. My main account isn't enabled for third party sites but has exactly 100 WD games and 152 Enigma ones.
http://www.dotabuff.com/players/133059304 I gave that account away to a fellow TL user. Prior to that it only had WD games.
I generally like position 4 a lot. Some warding, some ganking, a bit of farming, nice ultis. The best of all worlds. Jungle is also nice since it is a soft start to the game.

I have ~250 games on disruptor. Nothing compared to Naz's insanity
|
Is the reason why we have no TL team because nobody is willing to pick Blood seeker every single game?

One time I saw Nazgul pick BloodSeeker in an inhouse, and he destroyed everyone. We then said he could not pick BloodSeeker anymore since these inhouses were supposed to be fun 
Then he randomed BloodSeeker the next game...
Literally a true story.

Confirms 250 games for lord disruptor.

I can confirm that happened

I am just beginning to learn about DotA and I have only been playing VS (around 30 games thus far). I have a couple of questions:
1) Any tips how to double stack jungle with wave? Which camps are best to stack as a safe lane support?
2) What items do you go for?
3) What determines when you get Tranqs or Treads?
4) Which other heroes synergise well with VS?
5) What should I focus on in the early game: stacking, zoning, or roaming?
I am a low skill/casual player who likes to 3-5 stack with my friends. But I do like watch and learn about Dota2. So any help would be appreciated.
