Ah... Rememberin those special bosses.

When both teams in the game were at a drawpoint after so long, we gave up and went to try and find boss tauren chieftain and take him on. We all died.
Stick it up. take it up. step aside and see the world

Purge used to be a Medusa ability on a ridicilously low cd and a ridicilously strong slow(basically, it would ROOT YOU is how much it would slow you), would instantly kill summoned creeps, would dispell buffs and debuffs. Medusa also had a very powerfull chain lightning.
Medusa also didn't have % dmg reduction on split arrows(or so I believe).

I loved that

too bad it was stupidly overpowerd.

Before she got the stone thing ulti she was pretty underpowered I remember. She did get dmg reduction on her arrows and she was almost never played iirc.


god no, she was horrendous. 7 100% damage arrows, purge, reasonable int gain, and a spell shield even more obnoxious than the one at the moment?

I used to just get the old manta (illusion cast one), and attack-move into peoples bases.
For every battle honour a thousand heroes die alone, unsung, and unremembered.

I finally convinced my friend to play the game after a year of avoiding it cause he hated how the 3-d models looked in WC3, he gets tossed into the river behind the spawn point by a tiny. 100% my favorite memory, he surprisingly didn't just give up and kept playing.

I remember when you could use blink dagger while taking damage. Not totally old school dota there, but damnnnnn it was imba. Every hero had to have one to kill anything..

I remember when you could pull an invisible wisp out of CM's ult and use it to build more towers. But then it wouldn't matter because your tree/throne were vulnerable from the start and pudge would just wear them down with flies all game.

ES wasn't implemented then. In fact it took a great deal of spell coordination to stop a push like that.

Omni/Pudge combos, who said rot had to damage Pudge?

Whenever I played with my friends and we did that combo we got first blood before the creepwave spawned, was good times.

Also techies, all you needed was to get to 11 and then have fun at the opponents secret shop. One of my friends was so good at him, he made it impossible to use theirs, and then we just warded around ours and ganked whoever tried to use it.

I played a pub match against a Nv.Merlini once. Could have been a fake but he farmed a ridiculously fast radiance on medusa and single-handedly raped our entire team in 15 minutes.

I remember that riki, that was freaking imba, as well as those silencer's golems. And silencer's autoattack can silence hero as well. lol that was sick.

I remember Nai'x the most agile hero but main attribute is STR. Cookie cutter build for it is buy sange and yasha and BKB and damage items. It's so funny that everytime Naix appear everyone will just run away or else you can't escape from it.



The old school naix was so imba ... good times.

You should check out Yamatehs tinker in a game between Ks.My vs DmZ (old Avid, norwegian+swedish guys + lacoste) from a MYM PriDe. Back when BKB rearmed. He pretty much 1v5'ed a team with roof (entangles goes through BKB) and spectre, it's a pretty crazy game.
