Magicwand+drum+PT is all you need for the early to mid game. And then usually BKB next and then bfly, skadi/sacred/divine situationally good as snowballer items, mom+basher for the funny day. Other choices including sny, orchid, lothar, manta etc. Gem is the best end game item.

CM is a much better mode than all pick, holy shit, games are fun, i get to play "properly" and people sorta kinda have brains. Games much better now : )
|
So another bet just came up
Liquid vs Empire. I'd be shocked if liquid didn't take it

Blizzard buying IPL means 0% chance of Dota 2 appearing there, right?

eh... you can just create a new account with bunch of beta keys, transfer the rares over there to bet more than 4 items per match.... its common knowledge >.>. And yes, i do treasure my rares. 1 Day i will host a delete party to get cool mythical items

That is depends on your definition of fun. A lot of people tend to disagree with tryinghard = fun of north american players since they prefer watching Singsing buy rapiers than ixmike88 yelling at noobs.

In general I've found I get better games while playing in cm, but that's because fun to me = winning.
Unfortunately my queue times for cm are like 15 minutes which is horrible. And after those 15 minutes i get a 9/10
10% of dota players don't know how to push accept. I want to kill 10% of dota players.
Coincidence?

Has anyone EVER gotten a mythical by deleting a rare? I've deleted probably 20-30 rares because I just didn't care for those heroes and I've never gotten anything.

Coincidence? Again, you can see the problem: if it takes 15 mins for you to search for a game, clearly not a lot of people agree with you on the fun definition. Moreover, searching for a match for 15 mins only increase the inaccuracy of the match which make the game not worth playing from the very first place. I strongly advice you to get yourself into a team to play team matchmaking exclusively OR get yourself in an in house league such as ixdl where people who enjoy -cm mode like yourself garther .

Have yet try since new items came out but before diretide i got couriers by deleting rares. Couriers are mythical :D

they pretty much skewered the rate for rare > mythicals nowadays post diretide
is there a command beside -console on launch option that allows to use console but not opening directly when starting games i swear i used that before but forget about it
Edit

Well yeah, considering it means IPL no longer exists and that they will be using the studio/pieces of the studio under the blizzard name to showcase their products.
Pretty much think of it this way. There is no more IPL, and Blizzard will be premiering their own brand new studio soon using all of IPL's old stuff.

Seems unfortunate that there's a perfect storm of sorts against Dota in its genre. NASL appears to be the only remaining big NA organization that could pick it up.

Main reason I get it is because I'm always out of mana on him and the HP is a nice buffer so you can get out of fights to heal up fast. Better to go basher first or something?
Try orchid. it's amazing! gets you attack speed, all the mana regen you will need and it's great for picking of people

armlet slark is the only wodota approved slark

Shadow Blade, Orchid and Armlet all nice on slark. Ultimate Orbs are so cost inefficent that the build up for Skadi is kinda bad as a first item.

I bought G1-League ticket yesterday, but it is my first ticket. There is a chance of the itens drop when I'm watching replays or just alive?

Only when you watch the games live.
