I miss techies, you either see hardcore feeder techies or occasionally you get to see some professional techies in action, that feeling when you are so damn scared by an opponent techies lol
Oov really hurts on techies. It is kinda amazing how small the dot is, but how annoying it can be if its applied constantly.
COME ON DOTA, 356 win 357 loses, I CAN MAKE IT TO 50% WINRATIO!!
Seriously i've had 10 more loses than wins almost since I began playing dota2 , really want to make it even.
edit: annnnnnd no . ¨Played bane mid, absolutely trashed SF, ganked the side lanes buttttttttt carries with 200 gpm, and other team wins with midas druid. So fucking retarded.

Thx for link. I came across an interview while I was searching for this, they won the tournament but techies were banned in all the final games lol. Also the techies player was a standin. I guess you could set up a reaaally dangerous roshpit with him, hope to see him utilized in some way.

Techies will only be annoying in solo q if you're trying to carry. Techies have little team fight presence other than suicide, and mines are easily countered by detection.

Should a scrub like me try captain's mode if the queue time is similar?
Sure, why not? You'll get matched up with people of equal skill anyway and it's not like you're going to get worse picks than you normally get at low level matchmaking.

I love playing against/with naga. I feel like whenver she ulti's it resets the teamfight and if you are fast enough/can outthink the enemy you will win from there. It is just so tense and everyone is screaming in our voice chat of what to do.
honestly the Naga games were great and entertaining. I have yet to see a Naga game that was ever boring
Vaccum in sleep was dumb, but thats the Dark Seer's fault
Everybody keeps forgetting what made Naga truly terrible to watch was not the Naga, but the fucking mid morphling that never fucking died and 1 shotted everything at 14 minutes
I still think there is nothing that matches the lameness of Morph shotgun during international until now. Even cancer lancer and the first week of Centaur
Watching Synderen and SingSing's streams recently I'm struck by how much it adds when you can hear team chat in games. What are the chances of getting teams to use the in-game client to talk so that spectators can choose a team's chat for audio? Or maybe something that allows for them to still use Skype or whatever and yet have their voices still be broadcast in-game?

Why would any streamer even consider using such a feature? This will only drive even more people into dotatv, resulting in less ad revenue for the streamer

I don't think it will happen since external voip will prob almost always be better. Also I don't know how much sponsors want people hearing team chat in a proper game. I doubt it's anything below R18 and could contain a lot of out of context quotes that could be damaging. Practice games are a lot less intense

Valve should totally do that for TI3, but I don't see any other tournament pick that up ^^ .

Fuck it, I liked watching morphling. Yes, he deserved a small nerf, but I thought the games that involved him were usually pretty exciting.
