Russians seem to like the not-recently-seen initiators: night stalker, puck, clockwerk, storm spirit, and queen of pain. Dota has tons of viable heroes but people falsely believe that some are way imbalanced and must be picked. For example, Invoker wasn't picked or banned in this draft. People (TLIH scrubs sometimes) just copy whatever recent pro games they see, and those common pro teams usually play the same heroes because they're good with them and they are used to a certain style. Need more NaVi-esque teams.

Morph just sitting at 4k.. now almost 5k gold doing nothing. Christ I hate this so much. He could have killed so many heroes with his combo if he bought an eaglehorn for the adaptive strike damage.

I can only assume he's going for shotgun.

*edit* There, he buys the Eth Blade completely. Why not just buy Eagle....=\. He's diving into 3 heroes trying to snipe kills, yet ironically is saving all his gold for buyback safety. -.-?

I hope so....that is just too too easy to pull off imo. Stack the camp every minute until you hit 4 or 5 camps, you will be level 3 by then for lvl 2 Shell, and whammo. It's almost like a mini-Roshan you will be level 5-6 with enough $ for Arcane Boots from there you can run train everywhere. Just does not seem balanced to me.

idk i think that's the unique characteristic of ds, and that's why it should be a consideration for banning him


It's not really a unique characteristic. It's because the jungle isn't finished so neuts don't run away when taking damage unlike in dota 1 which makes the tactic not as useful. That's also why sand storm doesn't do damage to neuts(Hotfix). They just need to fix the jungle AI :<

To be fair, Bat doesn't really need the trick to be able to clear jungle quickly and safely.

To be fair last time we saw him he didn't really impress so it's nice to see him doing well.

Manta on venomancer? I usually play more assist and melt face against players than going carry. I usually have to go vanguard simply to stay alive and scepter is well, a no brain er. But I have never gone manta. I love playing as venomancer though; the hero is the only one I managed to maximize my performance in the game. Granted, I do not think that means much haha. But still, I enjoy playing veno so much.

What was your starting build skill wise?

I've tried jungle smoke in dota1 with a lot of heroes, the problem is the creeps tend to run away, and you need a good damage to mana cost/low cooldown spell at level 1 (to clear the small camp quickly, necrolyte can't do this) and 3 (to kill the large camp). Storm can barely clear hellcallers and troll warlords before smoke runs out.

Batrider needs some levels to do multicamp clears, which wastes the window of his laning ability.
