I think you are the first person I see who thinks that Naix is fun to watch.

Are you guys serious? It's like this all the time.

The first week a hero is seen competitively "OMG this is so exciting I love watching this hero he does awesome stuff" followed promptly by "Nobody thinks this hero is entertaining to watch hes so boring icefraud plz nerf"

Naix is a hell of a lot better than PL. And most hard carries in general. Naix bombs carry this huge sense of anticipation, and you know the team with naix is going to be trying to DO STUFF before 40 minutes.

Naix is awesome, Gyro is pretty cool, Luna makes for good games, most of the common picks these days make for good dota to watch. KotL is a bit of an exception, that guy is a snoozefest. Nyx and bat are also exciting but they tend to put constraints on the game that end up being not much fun to watch.

People just complain about seeing a hero if he's been picked for more than the last week, thats all.

I also like N'aix, always have, and I still love phantom lancer
N'aix has the potential to be quite amazing with his ulti: setting up ganks, healing midfight, killing an escaping hero last second, even that illusion trick somewhere on youtube.

All we need to do for dota icons is figure out which common items has the long build-up chains (Wand, Drums, Manta/Heart/Whatever, etc) and then order the parts by cost. You go up the chain as you post. I.E. Branch->Wand->Bracer->Drum->Ult Orb->Yasha->Manta->Butterfly or whatever other end game build up feels good.

And same with the 3 races from Z, P, and T, you have a strength build up (into Heart), a agi build up (into Butterfly), or an int build up (into Scythe). Seems perfectly reasonable.
The Innocent shall suffer... big time.

it depends what a team does with it. I generally dislike pl but ig vs lgd.int was one of the most fun and tense games i have watched.

I like Naix because even when he's crushing it's a chew one hero and then another and then another kind of thing (a bit like AM), rather than everything dying simultaneously to something like Flak cannon.

I think Lifestealer is fine. If Icefrog is gonna nerf him in 6.78, I think it's only going to be a minor one if you ask me

I don't like lifestealer too much in his current form. Generally he's an autoattack kind of hero which doesn't bring to much excitement.
But his ultimate is a really fun spell, so I'd like to see him changed. If his qwe abilities become a bit weaker, but his ultimate cooldown gets reduced aswell, that would be a change I could appreciate.

I think it was h4nn1 who said that nyx and bat are the kind of heroes that do well against splitpushing and if that's the case I don't really mind if the other option is to watch a 40+min game of rat dota.

Lifestealer is hard to watch beat your team. It is not fun to see a super fat super fast Naix smack your players while your team just runs away because he is raged and you can't actually kill him anyway

I think Naix is a tad too good in its current form. The fact that he probably doesnt need that big of a nerf makes other heroes look really freaking pathetic though.. Naix just makes other heroes who are supposed to fill the same roll look really underpowered, thats probably what makes him look so imba.
