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.

eh...that was more of a successful cheese than Axe actually doing anything. Even the first kill on Naix was done just with SD and Dazzle.

It's the tutorial reward. They give to people that were in the beta so that you dont have to do it to get the item

Ok, thanks!

Cause he sucks. Battle hunger is dispelled by killing or denying a creep, his passive is completely RNG based, and his ultimate's kill threshold is based on HP, not % of HP. He doesn't scale at all into the mid and lategame, and his usefulness falls dramatically once battle hunger is no longer amazing on supports. I've seen axe picked (and do well) in some early push strats, but that's about all he's good, and as the game progresses he's basically there to blink --> taunt and nothing else.

axe is stupid tough in the early to mid game but beyond that he falls off insanely hard. There is just no way to keep him relevant in the lategame short of his taunt.

that being said if you can destroy the game with him in the first 10 minutes then who needs a lategame?

He isn't old-man fear for no reason.
From the Ghastly Eyrie I can see to the ends of the world, and from this vantage point I declare with utter certainty that this one is in the bag!

Probably for the best. Prevents me from queuing up another. DOTA2 hates me right now, three losses in a row today takes me to something like three wins in twenty games. Not to mention I've ended up low priority through pushing my luck with a second abandon in a week. -_-

Servers being down encouraging to go do something else for a bit.
