Lol @ the Russian talk.

The only weird thing I notice is that I have the feeling that most of the Russians I meet expect everyone to speak russian. I often have 4 Russian Teammates and they never talk to me in English :o

Sometimes it gets really confusing when they say my hero name and I have no idea want they want :o

That is somehow really annoying because it makes teamplay difficult, and I love teamplay.


I have that issue with Chinese players. They tend to only speak Chinese to each other and ignore everything I say in English. Then I check their steam profile and they are from California or Canada...


hmm I also had 4 CHinese ppl in my team before but it seemed not so bad as when 4 angry russians are playing... maybe its the playstyle but when I played with 4 chinese guys they seemed to play very well in a team and didnt ignore me per se, they expected me to play with them but they didnt talk to me either, they at least pinged me to come or something.

I dont know, its weird. Maybe I am Chinese-biased.

I get chinese teammates a lot and they're okay. I like them better than some Malaysians and my own countrymen (pinoys). I have good Malaysian friends tho and very few pinoy friends in DotA 2.

It isn't that hard to have an allied target to port into though. Just pick visage and you can teleport anywhere ^_^

Haha, didnt know phoenix was so controversial. I never actually did play phoenix much- quit dota for a few years after icarus was first released, and only joined dota2 last year. What's so bad about icarus?

Icarus has been notoriously difficult to balance properly, being absurd in many of his forms.

I only distinctly remember his first incarnation-when sunray slowed , damaged, and icarus could move freely. That was insane as fuck, not sure what he looks like now.

However my point is that phoenix wouldnt make games as stupid as techies would. Seriously, imagine russian techies players. The QQ thread would be ablaze.

I for one frolic when I think about watching the world burn. Buuuuuuuuuuuurn.

And Terrorblade seems to be very similar to one of his more stable versions:
metamorphosis, conjure image, sunder
Just that instead of lifedrain he has an actual useful skill.

Lifedrain was fucking awful^^ You know pugna and lions drain spells right? Now imagine a carry with low max health that poses no threat whatsoever until lvl 6 having a lifedrain that barely outheals 3 creeps hitting said carry. Naturally stats were preferred over that.
If nobody hates you, you´re doing something wrong. However someone hating you doesn´t make you right

I think I just made 5 people quit dota. (I was the Furion)

Basically we lost every lane, lost every fight and just decided to permanently split push. We got picked off a lot because of their invis heroes, but every time they got 1 or 2 of us, the other 2 lanes would be pushing in so the enemy team couldn't ever find a good time to push. Even when they got rosh they had to tp back because all the lanes would be pushing in. We made them bounce back and forth to defend, took top melee rax and backed, took bot melee rax and backed. After that they couldn't ever leave their base anymore. Kunkka bought a rapier to try and turn things around, they tried fighting us but we just refused to fight, eventually they made mistakes and we walked up and killed their last set of barracks.

-Tier 3 towers can only be damaged if all 5 of your heroes are present.

Lycan such a bad hero... Jungle is hard because the wolves cost too much mana and die way too fast at early levels. 2 wolves have less hp than 1 treant until levelled to 3 points. Unreal.

Yeah I mean he's obviously never seen the games where the rare/mythical goes to the assclown who intentonally feeds but still gets carried .

But if you run him, you have to sacrifice your safelane farming position to him, meaning your eggs are now officially in one basket (maybe two if you run a strong jungler). If you jungle him, he hits his critical mass point way too slow and can't really contribute to the team. The jungling was most of why he was such a good hero. Slowing that down by so much (forcing you to tank everything) just kind of cripples him.

He can't lane or jungle. So he's an awkward hero now.
