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.

tbh I think at least 1/3 of those only login to dota client and just sit idle there/chat/watch replays and stuffs. And if you divide the rest to regions, there're not that many people playing the game in your specific region.

Que ties were a lot faster before they changed it so it is connected to that.

Hehe, just thought of a bad pun.

how is that even possible. its like 15 creeps a minute. wtf.

More creeps spawn later in the game, so if the game goes really long and medusa just sits at the throne and kills all 3 lanes worth of mega creeps, she gets A LOT of last hits.

Looks like @dendiboss @NaViXBOCT and @Funn1kDota missed their 1st flight and then bought tickets for 20/08 instead of 20/07.Thats a success!

i've had 1200 by 70 minutes (kunkka), no lost raxes, its a lot easier than you think if you've given just a little bit of space (and you dont want to end the game )

Haha, I go out to do field work in a swamp for a month and I come back and Timbersaw apparently becomes a viable mid in the new meta.

When/how the hell did that happen?

Timbersaw viable mid ? I saw Timber mid only once and he lost vs SF.
I think it was Alliance vs KP, Timbersaw was played by s4 and Arteezy played SF.

I've seen him in two more games since, I think, KP did it again and now Alliance are doing it against Mouz.

Weird stuff.

You can't win mid lane as shredder because without trees around you have no harassment tool, so you're hoping to go even and probably losing the lane. Its kind of like putting magnataur mid except mag is a lot stronger in teamfights, has a harassment tool in lane and a is lot less item dependent than shredder is.

Shredder doesnt scale well after he picks up a bloodstone either, so if you don't get a large advantage early/mid game you're kind of screwed.

Um. . .how is an 8s cool down 100-250 nuke that takes 15% primary attribute "no harass". If you want to compare him to Magnus, Timber has much better int and so can spam his nuke way more and his EHP is far higher.

Timbersaw is a strong mid.

timber will actually win mid against almost any melee
getting 2+ points in the passive means you will end up gaining health by pulling creep aggro, which means u can just click the other guy in lane with complete impunity, and having whirling death means you'll get a hand up in last hitting
When in doubt, just believe in yourself and press buttons

Yeah. Most of the timber mid players what i've seen, won't even pick that chain thingy until they really need it. So no need for trees.
