Phase build tiny exist pretty much since dota 2, a carry-ish tiny, but tiny has been for years and years arcane blink gank basically. Well, I wasn't following dota anymore in 2088-2009 so perhaps phase tiny started there, but now most people think right click tiny is standard when it's a very recent standard (recent relative to the whole doto history I mean).

I can't believe you think Hao could ever perform without Mu. It should be Mu + 4x Hao

It emerged after aghanim got reworked on him (+ the Wisp combo, otherwise it is pretty useless). Initially you had to consume a tree to get the club buff and got like 5 attacks each, then they converted it to a permanent club with the scepter.

In pubs, mana boots + dagger is superior IMO, than you can transition into aghanim and other DPS items. My favorite, though, is mana boots + dagger + dagon 5 + EB.

I can't believe that you guys didn't just put Xboct 9 times with one AA.

Phrase build tiny was originated from HoN. In HoN, everybody built phraseboot at that time because the unit collision was terrible. Moreover at that time, Blood Chalice (Soul Ring in DotA) grant permanent mana when used. So with just phraseboot, bottle, bloodchalice (1450+600+625g), a tiny can pretty much roam all day until he gets blink and dagon.

You can attribute that to Tiny not having any favorable mid matchups.



This is like saying Pudge doesn't have very favorable mid matchups. Sure, it's true, but both heroes can insta gib most other mids if they do anything stupid. It's really only at the top of the professional level that Pudge and Tiny become less useful; in pubs they are still extremely dominant because people tend to make lots of mistakes in the midlane, and both heroes can capitalize big time.

Sounds like the most round about way to get to seattle. Did they buy that cheapest tickets possible or something?

When you fly from Europe to Seattle or the US in general you usually fly from amsterdam, I think the stop in Iceland was just due to their ticket-drama

That had no effect on dota 2 though. Dota phase tiny was just because people realized he was a carry and didn't need blink arcanes anymore. Despite treads giving IAS (which he really likes), it wasn't an issue when you don't need it to get a combo off and in general there is became of trend of using phase on carries because it is just a great item.
