IRC chatter should remain in IRC - http://webchat.quakenet.org/?channels=tl.dota2

Posts that relate to topics with their own thread, such as in News, Tournaments or Strategy should go in those threads.

Yeah, medusa is awful. After 3 big items you still can't carry shit. You need to be at AT LEAST 5 slot before you can actually think about carrying, and your last slot needs to be an aegis too.

Also what is with medusa players who can't farm? Like, free farm in a trilane + stacked jungle -> ~30 minute linkens... :/

Skeleton king just needs mobility. Shadowblade on him is OPWTFBBQ. Almost as OP as not picking him

If you're going to be useless that long, maybe you should just go midas.


It's hardcoded into the game mechanics that if dusa gets a midas all the opponents automatically push and force teamfights so that no games last longer than 30 mins

However, if anyone on the other team gets a midas, they are hardcoded your teammates into never ganking him until he has a 7 level advantage and 10k gold lead on everyone else in the game.

People play Dusa too much like a wuss. Once you have Linkens/Manta you can deal kids pretty easily with split shot images by just standing and delivering. Once you have Linkens/Manta/Skadi or Linkens/Manta/Bfly, you can pretty much destroy the whole opposing team.

Once you have Manta and Linkens you can man up and tank everything

and still you don't do any damage. Medusa has this gap where she is really weak, Medusa is actually really strong around level 7-11(the mystic snake is a fuckton of damage). However when Mystic Snake falls of she lacks severly in the damage department, even with Linkens, Butterfly and Manta she still doesn't do much damage relativly speaking.

BTW, what do you folks build on kunkka for your pub stomp builds these days?

Is it no longer worth going shadow blade? (i'm never going to draft this hero in CM, so don't care too much about that)

I still use shadow blade on him just as an escape plus the bonus damage is actually useful for before you get your full daedalus 1H5KO late game up and running

Shadow blade still works ok on kunkka I think. Its definitely nice having an escape mechanism and the damage is of course good on him. Obviously the old build up of shadowblade-->daedalus is much much weaker since the nerf, but im not sure what a better build up is, since daed is still core for pubstomping with him.
