I like how Kennigit, Slasher and Trance is part of this already. Should have followed Kipsates advice, forgot to grab the popcorn. | ||

Puppey didn't deal with the situation properly but Merlinis decision / editing of the video isn't either. As people have said, what if the pause just coincided with xboct lagging? What then? Dude you're overreacting. I watched the video and he didn't even say Navi cheated | ||

No pauses are allowed when the teams are fighting with each other. An offending team will be given a warning. If the warning is unheeded, the referee has the right to issue a loss for the current game to the offending team. After the game starts, if a player disconnects, each team has three chances to ask for a pause in order to wait for reconnection. If the number of pauses exceeds the limit or a single pause lasts more than five minutes, the team must continue the match with the remaining players. To pause for other reasons, the captain must make a request in all-chat or raise his hand as signal. The referee will approve and execute the pause, which must not last longer than five minutes. Players pausing on their own will face punishments such as warnings. LAN IS EVERYTHING | ||

Which means Blademail Bat is hilarious right now against certain spells (Ion Shell, Rot, Shackles, etc.). Alright, I'm getting bored with the pause talk. I'm trying this build out when I get home...the question is how do I build it... hmmmm. | ||

Its only abusive against rapid-dot heroes. So like veno/ds/pudge etc. Its not even that good against Shadow Shaman's shackles because you have to get it off before he shackles you. And bat isn't even good against DS because napalm isn't so hot vs surge. Plus you need a blademail and if you go blademail before blink on bat your team ought to report you. But I'm sure watching this rape a pudge in like 1/2 a second would be painfully amusing. | ||

Also, Napalm is fine vs. Surge. Reduced turn speed still significantly affects the maneuverability of max MS heroes. It's part of why people liked Bat against Lycan in DotA 1, because even though Lycan could run around at max MS, his mobility was still hampered by the slow turn rate. | ||

That was a tactical pause by Puppey, and instead of just admitting it, he's going through all this bullshit, defending himself, when anyone with half a brain can see that it was abuse. Just watch the replay from Puppey's perspective, he was fucking centered on XBOCT, pinged him, and then paused. | ||

Well yeah but napalm is batriders way of forcing you to stay in his firefly but that doesn't work vs DS is all (even if you aren't going on DS he can surge his teammate for escape purposes). I guess the combo of firefly and napalm is probably pretty good vs DS wall illusions though, without having to focus effort on negating it specifically. | ||

And what do you say to this: I just watched xboct's POV, and it does appear that he had technical difficulties, basically lag. Before the engagement, he was standing there and just clicking on the ground for 3-4 seconds with the camera positioned directly on himself. Usually, people do it when they're experiencing lag/delay. And his strange camera positioning only contributes to it. I don't think it is as clear as you think it is. | ||
