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.

i think another reason is, unlike sc2, dota gets major GAME changing patches on a fairly regular basis ( more than once a year) so everyone assumes imbalance wont be around for long. sc2 has MINOR AS FUCK patches that take months to implement.

For instance, Huskar got a MAJOR overhaul, and is imba, but noone really cares cause he isnt in the competitive hero pool, and we all know a change is coming sometime soon.


the thing about sc2 and dota though is that imba in dota 2 affects everyone, if a hero is too imba, everyone has to ban it, if the hero is really good everyone picks it.

whereas if terran is imba, zerg and protoss are screwed

Man, last year when I was flying from Denmark to Seattle I was supposed to transfer at Amsterdam. But something about a storm.

Basically that city is bad luck. Fuck you Kipsate.

Here I am, doing my work routinely when suddenly a thought struck me.

Naga support is best support. Net goes through BKB, possibility of carry, decent damage because of Rip Tide and minus armor helps in Roshan-ing.

Most importantly, the Song is just insane. Song makes your team pretty much impossible to initiate on because a Song basically says time out, time to reset, but in the favor of the Naga's team.
Song also has one more understated effect, it doesn't affect BKB. At a glance, it seems to be a disadvantage than a advantage....but actually it's THE counter to BKB carriers(usually the position 1 & 2), who needs to die in any engagement if possible because their the damage dealers & the carrys. 3-4-5s dont get the money to go BKB most of the time.

Once they pop their BKB, Naga can Song, and isolate the enemy BKB carrier who are usually the more important heroes to kill. That isolation is also helped by Naga's Net being able to pierce BKBs and hold them there for your entire team to beat him down in relative peace as the enemy's entire team is being slept.

It doesnt matter if where that fight takes place! Whether it be at the roshan pit, or even T3 high ground! The song disables towers too so your entire team can focus fire to get rid of the enemy carry before the fight has even begun and just turn around and clean up the supports once the carry die!

The problem is that she's super fucking squishy, and because of that she doesn't do well in comeback situations as a support

Pretty sure I saw a naga support with Treads+Drums+Ghost Sceptor having 1.5k life easily. I forgot which level.
