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.

The main problem with Zeus (IMO) is that he doesn't fit into any lane. He obviously can't play offlane, he can't support and he's a terrible mid. That leaves you with 1 position or some sort of dual lane mid or something.

Actually, Warlock/Zeus dual lane mid could work. Maybe. That sounds really fun. I highly doubt it would work competitively but I'd love to see it tried.

Mouz picked him a couple of times in matches and fata said he thinks that people still underrate him.

How did they run him?

You can watch the games here: http://dota-academy.com/hero/41/

If Zeus mid means the supports have to babysit him hardcore

I don't think it means that. He's not easier to gank than many other common mid heroes, besides even a hero that is comparatively hard to gank will die to a well executed smoke gank.

Well, that's how they had to play it against Storm, not known for his laning, and, as I said, Zeus died anyway.

Which common mid heroes are even close to as easy to gank as Zeus? Gyro is the only one I can think of really, but at least he demolishes anyone who shows up without creeps.

Storm for example. That said, heroes without some sort of escape mechanism or survivability sort of faded out, but as I said, you can easily kill heroes like TA, QoP, Bat etc. if you execute well.
At least Zeus can stay far away from the wave and still get lasthits.
Can't watch the vod in question atm, so it's hard to comment on that game.


Storm has a disable and a slow and at level 6 an escape. He is quite squishy but he's still considerably safer than Zeus.

Yes, you can kill all mids, but Zeus is pretty much a guaranteed kill every time you try if he's not with supports.

A disable with low range which slows himself, a slow for which he has to cast a spell and attack. Sorry, but neither is particularly useful if you get ganked unless they fuck up, in which case Zeus' nukes can be useful as well. Of course, at 6 it's a different thing, but people will try to shut you down before that.

I think Garaj still has an edge over it. But The Retry comes as no surprise, since it's more or less PGG+4 usually.

I like Storm... It's such an awesome feeling to see how he wants to gank and then ---> "silence" -> /laugh while he melts. This has to be the be one of these "moment you just feel awesome" :D.

At least when im Krobe and you can watch how your Ghosts eat him .

What :o For me it's the reverse, since a few days I can fullscreen embedded vids while I could not do it before. Very strange.
