Also Wagamama trying hard to change his accent really annoyed me, I hope he won't do that at TI3. edit: Overall, I would say it was decent, but I still prefer LD+Lumi/Merlini. | ||

He can tune in and watch it now and then, but if you expect a person who only find out about dota2 one week before TI3 to watch the tournament that they mostly will not understand that much one week in a row, you'll have a very bad time. I suspect Incontrol will only tune in to watch some important matches, or the final, he will still spend most of the time watching sc2. People who don't know about dota2 and like sc2 will most likely continue to watch sc2, and will be aware of dota2 and TI3 to tune in from time to time, that's about it. Hype can only carry you so far until you get bored because of lack of knowledge. If I got it right from the video I'd say you guys are missing the point. Blizzard are cramming three regional finals back to back, which is already bad enough because nobody is going to be able to watch that much content, and just because its Blizzard we're talking about here - they also schedule it on the same date as the International, which is damn stupid anyway you look at it. | ||

Obviously awhile back, but they have cast a lot of total games together. | ||

Mek, Pipe, Shiva, etc. Sheep at a point where you can afford to get one without risk of sacrificing too much survivability, Agha at the point where death times are long enough, you expect targets to want to buyback into fights. | ||

If you just want HP/mana, there are ways to get those stats that are better for Necrolyte. | ||

You have one spell that's kind of spammable in fights + Scythe, and you're guaranteed 600 mana back from a Scythe kill. In the sustain case, you can rely on Sadist to give you over-time HP/mana restore. If you just want HP/mana, there are ways to get those stats that are better for Necrolyte. It makes him harder to kill and gives really good sustain it's good in general. Also you can't forget about heal on death and faster respawn. I would say it's ok item on him but as you said there are better choices in many situations. | ||

There's also the fact that he has 0 base armor and pretty weak Agi growth, meaning that by midgame, armor is by far his biggest bottleneck in terms of survivability. | ||

He needs Mek for sure, and Shivas is pretty good Personally, i like to buy Aghs on, even if its a little weak damage wise, at the right time using can just win a game | ||
