Other teams pick the hero too and play it better than they do.

But if you watch NaVis bootcamp videos, where Dendi is calling for Storm in every possible game, it makes it a lot more fun. :D

"I think the most OP hero is furion, global TP wtf" my roommate who only play bot games in LoL.

Serious question: is there a way to console code so that i could instantly buy a fixed set of starting item at the start of the game? I will never get used to shop hotkey in dota2, that shit needs to be customizable soon .

Even tho I agree that the standard shop hotkeys in dota2 blows, whats so hard about using your mouse lol? With customized shop menu, smart buy, search function, quickbuy hotkey and sticky hotkey you are set for life.

im actually doing some cheesy shits that need to buy item REALLY fast. One of the most common one is fountain warding at level 1 with furion and camp courier.

Chinese client is downloadable, apparently it has functionality for linking to an existing steam account which should help avoid issues with losing cosmetics and maybe friends/stats etc which is good to hear

...Why? I've seen some stupid attempts (as well as some successful ones) at warding the enemy fountain, but I can't for the life of me figure out why.

Common sense should apply to where they'll be laning, and in any case your picks will be dependent on your lanes as well, so you can't really "react" to seeing them go out. Worst case scenario they're doing something weird, and you'll have to swap lanes. But you can do that after you're seeing them in the lane, and its not worth a lost ward and tp + potential (in higher mmr: certain-) death.

No one has any globals at lvl 1 either. If you're planning on sniping people on their way home at lvl 6+, you can port in later (you know, when there's not 5 people in the fountain), when its actually useful.

If you want to do some cheese at lvl 1, try smoke ganks or Roshan.

Uh he said he wanted to snipe courier. Warding the fountain helps you know where/if/when the courier is moving out.

For the chinese client, can I play there as long as I have the beta key that is not restricted in China ( no red text)? Or do they check ip or something

Its better to ward the cliff midlane anyway. You can even run back to your base.

it is fun. Worth it or not is depend on your execution and a bit of luck. Its a high risk high reward cheese strat that i have been using a lot lately while going eblade dagon no boot.

warding fountain gives you a general idea of the enemy laning, their starting items, which lane they are warding etc... plus sometime you could spot a greedy jungler using courier un upgraded.

Im not saying that it is superior and by no mean recommend anyone doing this. But it is fun to pull shits like this =))

Yeah just ward behind T1 or T2 mid tower and you can snipe the courier 100% of the time considering that very few pub players get the flying upgrade before the 2 min mark
