EPTFly in Gaben personally to coach you for 2 hours because today teaching yourself is too hard. Seriously when the bots were set to hard by default I had so many people dc after 5 minute because they got stomped. How can you even not figure out that there are different bot settings by yourself? I'm getting old and bitter.

It was quite common in dota 1 in the Filipino scene, where bottle crowing was running rampant, you would get two couriers and get like 3 bottles and keep on constantly bottle crowing and spamming. i don't know how common it is now though, most people would probably say its a waste, you can probably just get most of it done with one courier. | ||

I'm generally against it because of the low mana pool. I would rather lose 5 last hits in the lane than die or miss a kill due to not enough mana. | ||

CROW CROW CROW CROW CROW CROW (It's actually one for long lane solo or the mid typically and the other for typical use. It really depends on the heroes but super mana dependent heroes do benefit greatly from it. I don't see it done often anymore but it was frequently done by fnaticrc back in their hon days. I really need to stop posting drunk. In dota 1 I saw people go guinsoo's more than orchid on clinkz, which makes sense to me. I understand the change in item preference (orchid is now far cheaper) but guinsoo's is so much better on him. | ||

You mostly don't want to though since the early gold is so important. You basically run 3 buyers early game, the support, the jungler, one of the core heroes. Or if you predict you will have safe tri vs solo you can send out both of your support on ~200 gold to get that fast courier. Problem comes in upgrading it, the one bottle crowing usually has to do that for one. You could also rosh level one to get the extra gold needed for it, probably the most viable way of doing it. | ||

Are the servers perpetually offline? I can't seem to login, it just says something about establishing connection and nothing happens for ages. | ||
