I actually enjoy Treant talk more than this. That 100 base damage, if u go ck treant and ss trilane u can get a close to 5 sec disable at lv 1, while tree hits you for 100 dmg per second. Op shit
100 dmg per 2 seconds bro. Dat 1.9 BAT lmao.
EDIT: errr, double post again. My bad.

I wonder if a Wisp-Treant lane would do well. Gotta remember to try that some day.

I think a lot of the shoutcasters are helped alot by having a knowledgeable co-caster
Tobi is FAR better with Synd there and Ayesee has a good voice, and Draskyl adds good knowledge
However best duo is LD/Winter.
|
All the casters have something different to offer, what matters is the synergy. Like tobi is unbearable solo, but quite good with synderen; Lumi doesn't fit with LD but is enjoyable with Godz; Ayesee and draskyl are awesome; LD and winter are the bawses, etc..

i'd rather play lol than that many games of tree in a row.

I found synderen really annoying during the defense final, always saying what the losing team should do instead of explaining what works well for the winning team or trying to explain the reasonning behind items, picks etc.He still says some interesting things but this "lol losers! Do this noobs" was really bad.

I mean, when a fight ends, its pretty normal to talk about what went wrong from the other team, or if a team is pushing a team is trading, its pretty normal to talk about whether the trade was good or not. If a pick is weird, it might be normal to talk about whether a pick fits well or if banning a hero makes sense or not.
I really didn't get this impression at all, his commentary was very good for me.

I'd argue that a lot of Western commentary (not just in DotA but in other games as well) tries to sugar-coat things too hard, and isn't sincere enough in analyzing the teams and how they play--overly focusing on saying how the winner did well and not being honest about the mistakes the losing team made. I'd say Synderen's forthright-ness is a plus, not a minus.
Asian commentary (both Chinese DotA commentary as well as Korean Starcraft commentary) has no qualms with being frank about teams' shortcomings (even poking fun at exceptionally poor play on occasion) and I think it's better for it.

That is how I imagine all of my friends who tried the game for a few weeks and then quit played early on
That guy luckily was very committed the learning the game and [unfortunately] picked one of the worst heroes to learn the game on

Is dota 2 down for anyone else? (Steam community seems down for me)

Is it just me or is Bristleback's goo animation way longer than in WC3 DotA? It always felt long, but in Dota 2 it seems even worse.

That poor soul. What a hero to pick...
