Truth is demon and the rest of EG are probably better than all of the free agents in NA. Might be true, but I don't think people are suggesting that Fear rebuilds from scratch. People have questioned Jeyo a bit, yeah, but the majority of the criticism comes down on Demon's inconsistency and Maelk's divided attention. I think the team would be fine with one of those things. Two is a bit much, because right now EG is kinda struggling with both the problems of a stale roster and the problems of an incomplete team that requires standins. Something's gotta give, and Fear and the EG management don't have to find four talented NA players; they really need to find one. At most two. Fear, Jeyo and bdiz should be considered the core of the team with Demon and Maelk possibly being moved on. The absolute best case for EG would be luring two of the three NA players away from LGD.int, but that's clearly not happening. | ||

I realize N0Tail's video is available, but is it the best for pub games? I'm trying to play only Meepo to sort of feel loose about the game and get comfortable with some fun, but challenging heroes. I used to go RoP + 2 branches (and consumables) into Tranquil's and then Meka with Vlad's (I usually can't go straight Aghanim's, I'm not that good). But recently, going Shield + 2 branches into PMS, Tranquil's and then getting treads with Vlad's is working out well. I end with Heart then AC. But what do you guys suggest? edit: I always get Agh's after meka or vlad's, depending how well I'm doing. | ||

Blink too. I think Notail often gets Aghs and Blink as his first two major items, with Tranquils and possibly a Sage's Mask for RoB switching on the way, occasionally Vlads before either but I don't know what conditions determine that. | ||

I think Notail often gets Aghs and Blink as his first two major items, occasionally Vlads before either but I don't know what conditions determine that. I'm really not that fast or a good farmer to pull that off or within any relevant speed. What would be a much more conservative way to play? and yes, I always get Agh's after mekansm and even vlad's | ||

I think a good justification for going Aghs as the first major item rather than Vlads/Mek is that the extra Meepo helps you farm and level even faster. Afterwards you can just forgo the Blink and go straight for Reaver -> Heart.[EDIT] Actually, regarding finishing Heart or not, I think SpiZe is right, a second Reaver is more cost-efficient, though there's not actually much in it (assuming I did the numbers right, It's just over 7% more cost-efficient strictly in terms of the strength). | ||

When someone calls another person a faggot, they aren't derogatorily calling them a homosexual. It's just another random curse word, like fuck face. Language evolves, context matters. I like the south park episode were faggots ended up meaning loud, annoying Harley Davidson bikers lol. | ||
