IRC chatter should remain in IRC - http://webchat.quakenet.org/?channels=tl.dota2

Posts that relate to topics with their own thread, such as in News, Tournaments or Strategy should go in those threads.

Wasn't SD a mid hero before he settled as a support, kinda like Rubick? IIRC his poison was much better though, but I didn't play much Dota 1 at that time.

I'm really not looking forward to facing off against skywrath every time I go mid for the next two weeks.

Holy shit, what can you even do?

Gank him. He has among the worst defensive stats in the game and no escapes. Should be easy to burst him down.

Who actually wins in OD vs Skywrath? I don't even really understand what's meant to make Skywrath such a good laner, is it just the range and slow on Concussive Shot and the spammable damage of Arcane Bolt?

OD would of course win because of Astral... Not to mention that since Skywrath is INT hero, no right click damage either.

i still think drow is very strong, but in certain lineups. a lot of heroes become very annoying to play against with a drow in the game (weaver, qop, storm, tinker, sf, gyro) and she helps out all of the ranged supports as well, especially visage. you only need +15 damage on each support to make it very annoying to play against. the big thing is to not run a 4-1 with her, since she cant carry a game by herself

It's actually on the confirmed bug list. It isn't intended that you can static link the bear; another instance of resistant skin/ancients not working properly.

I am not sure if Drow Ranger is the strongest tri on tri lanes, she has 625 range and a potential orbwalk(but you probably want to get aura). The aura does make your supports(and other ranged lanes) stronger but she doesn't have any survivability or nuke damage, shes not that great mid(as she can't push or use runes properly) and I don't see her work well in 1v1 situations where the enemy creepskips or just nukes her down. I think she is powerful and will definitely see play but in specific (ranged) lineups because I find it hard to see her laning stage go well.

The problem with drow aura is that it makes it impossible to freeze the lane; it gives the ranged creep too much damage. The only lane where this would be playable is mid since both sides tend to just nuke the wave down, but it could also put you into an easily gankable position.

Aura actually adds almost no damage early game, so in most situations something like gyro or Luna is probably stronger

Bat is also no longer anywhere near the top of 1v1 mid anymore after the lasso nerf
When in doubt, just believe in yourself and press buttons

Couldn't you just solo safelane her like a Clinkz? Though I'm pretty sure Clinkz is a more useful hero considering he also gets a Silence with orchid and is much harder to kill and does more damage than Drow anyway.

Drow would be fun with some some cheesy ass comp like Enigma, Beastmaster, Visage, Venge if you max aura first.

Damage from Eidolons and Familiars would be totally whack with this

I think drow could see some play, but as part of a dual or tri core strat. Maybe something like drow prophet sylla as your core, safe lane the prophet/sylla and then offensive tri with drow.

The issue is you couldn't use her against a lot of common heroes right now, basically any game with mag, bat, storm, nyx, naix, PL would make her useless, however I think she could still see some play if the lineup is right.
