As if to tie back the discussion over the last page, WW picks Weaver.
QoP is going to have a field day with VS stun as the only disable that can stop her.

Aren't the new test builds suposed to be released on wednesdays? I wouldn't expect anything before tomorrow night, hero or not.

As for weaver go watch DTS vs eSahara, sure there's obvious skill difference between the teams but that is how you play/build weaver.. vanguard and medallion into teamfights gg make some damage from like mkb / riza after. You can also go drums like someone said, the radi rush is so 2009

4-1 weaver is quite frankly weak, another reason why euros dont really play him anyway. he's not like some of the other heroes used in the very same strats. he's most useful with another carry or 2 other strong, select semicarries
another interesting thing about dota2 weaver is germinate properties... it works with deso since the 2nd hit of germinate procs the orb effect, maybe even better for a midgame setup rather than radiance these days. havent tried it though

I have never been a big weaver fan, just seems like so many heroes fill his role much better, also I want to strangle something when I play him due to his awful attack animation, geminate makes up for it somewhat but damn.

I Think its retarded how MKB completely counters butterfly

it doesnt completely counter it...it only removes the evasion against the hero that has the mkb, which is not that cheap
bkb counters every single spell, that seems more retarded no ?

So I am thinking of coming over from LoL but after playing a few games I am a little on the fence, you guys seem pretty level headed so I figured maybe you would take a few seconds out of your day to give some insight. I know about 10-12 people who play LoL at a decent level (1500 elo) and I somewhat enjoy the game, I mainly enjoy the esports side of it and how active the scene is right now as far as streaming and the reddit community go. My main goal in gaming right now would be to have a semi watched stream and I am going to try either in Dota 2 or LoL.
Now my biggest issue with switching to Dota 2 is right now, while the game is clearly more in depth and more fun from a simply personaly enjoyment point of view I know zero people who play it so solo queue can get boring. On top of that it seems there is less for the mid level community in terms of leagues/content as its in closed beta only the top get attention from leagues/tournaments, which isn't their fault; I would do the same thing.
Another thing is in league the games are generally faster and more arcady which allows quick pickup games where as dota seems like a decent investement in time from the point you log on.
I obviously even now after about a week of Dota enjoy it way more than LoL on a simply personal level but I just keep jumping back and forth between playing with friends and streaming LoL or Playing dota and waiting for open beta to play with friends and streaming that in the mean time.
Keep in mind the end goal is to be on a amateur team and to stream on a regular basis (not looking to be famous, don't really expect anyone to watch but hope people eventually do)
Thanks guys, sorry for the long post.

Is the vod up yet? Could someone post it when it is? I'm a huge Morphling fan.

So patch is in few hours or in 1 day and few hours? (for test server)
