LODA PLS!!! also, i didnt catch the ban pick phase, anyone explain why AM and invoker went through? Cause navi doesn't give a damn about hero that they can easily counter? He could never fight wr/sa/bm when lion would still hex him and chen would heal them all. He did the best thing he could do. | ||

His shrapnel, once cast will also deal damage to the tower regardless if you want it or not(think one click of Dragon knight green dragon or Pugna blast) making it great for sieging. its impossible to push t3s against a sniper unless you have a huge advantage though. However he is easily gankable and needs some pretty good farm, aswell as if he gets caught out in a teamfight(ravage/Sand King ultimate etc) he dies very fast in teamfights. Lategame however he can be very scary if he gets the farm. Any reason why he isn't picked up more in Dota 2? also Harassasinate is hilarious against supports. too fragile, no escape mechanisms. only works in games where the opposing team's lanes are weak :/ | ||

this has a lot of good insight on the current development of MM system in dota2 On March 23 2012 02:49 rabidch wrote: too fragile, no escape mechanisms. only works in games where the opposing team's lanes are weak :/ isnt the chinese VOD you posted earlier on lycan has a sniper in it? was that a special line up or smthing? but yeah, i never like traxex, sniper or most of the A move agi carry with 0 escape spells -_- On a side note: i think icefrog isnt asian http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/r7h4k/iama_guy_who_does_quality_assurance_for_one_of/c43n36p | ||

Burning got off to an excellent start in lane, and got a very solid item advantage. The problem came around the point of midgame teamfights--Sniper's presence isn't that huge, and if his supports just get blown up, there's not really a whole lot that he can do other than just run away. This game illustrates the type of teamcomp I feel Sniper requires. DK picked a lot of high-quality supporting power early (ES+AA), and had a LOT of disables to back up the Sniper pick and keep him safe (Slardar+AA+ES+Lion--everyone other than Sniper has disables/utility). If you need lategame damage, Sniper has plenty of it, but you pretty much have to have ALL your other bases covered in order to be able to support him. | ||

http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMzY3MDI0MDYw.html same teams, relatively similar lineups, note DK's massive early game advantage completely broken by 1 bad teamfight and sniper's lack of midgame power | ||

As far as ringers go having Bulba invoker isn't that bad  I didn't have a chance to tune in till halfway through the game tho, so I didn't see how the early game went. | ||
