na'vi picks axe, lol wtf is this :D

dendi invoker, LoH wr and an axe, this is gonna be an awsoem game

Axe has already been seeing quite a bit of competitive play in 6.73 in China. I'm not surprised to see Na'vi pick up on it.

Did they take Warlock?

axe isnt quite the beast he is in 673 though.

Call it practice for the new version then.

I thought each other throwing imba shit at each other would balance the game but no, invoker.

One of the most interesting things for me to watch in dota2 and particularly navi is that although most things are copied over from dota1, the order in which heroes are introduced is unique to dota2 without really changing anything else gameplay-wise. That and seemingly random hero-pool that dota2 started with.

It's kind of an umbrella category too because you see players from different backgrounds [ mainly hon ] who have their own evaluations of heroes.

For example, as rabid said am is relatively balanced now because of new heroes introduced and adapted playstyles. But on the flipside heroes like tiny are actually picked/banned due to the hero-pool. Personally, I think tiny is one of the most situational heroes if you look at the complete dota1 hero pool....but this last game with Navi shows you can just kinda do whatever the fuck you want and 3 shot rax np [ if your teammates are skilled enough ]. Drafting interaction between traditionally great dota1 drafters like puppey/ns/maelk is fun to watch.

tiny would be a decent pick in the chinese dota1 meta actually, if a few heroes are banned. his main problem is his weak sustainability in teamfights since he's pretty much almost all burst. he's also easier to gank than the typical mid strength hero as well

Sounds right. Just my opinion even though god knows I've been raped by tiny solo mid enough over the years.

Offtopic: More analysis posts rabid, yango taking over.

if you care, that is.

i dont really. yango doesnt make theorycraft conjectures either (unlike judi or me), so he isn't sticking his head out to get shot if he's wrong.

also im waiting for teams to pick dragon knight again, the chinese have it right here, there is really no reason why that hero shouldnt be commonly picked now with the 400 range dragon tail
