Why would you pick Sniper when theres Drow ? at least Drow has a great Silence skill, a great pushing global aura (albeit it only works with ranged heroes), a decent auto skill and an Ulti that while not that great has a great synergy with the aura, and its great for sneaky pushing

But at the end, why would you pick Drow anyway

At least Drow/Viper/Clinkz gets picked rarely with some niche strats at a competitive level.

:X


Dendi picked sniper against Qpad (+2gd) before
also picked during TI3 all star match

that's more than Drow ever had


Those games were not at a competitive level.
Please.

That TI3 all star match was purely for the fanservice and entertainment.
They weren't taking the games seriously.
Not about winning except for Mushi.


and yet Drow didn't even show up in those games


+ Show Spoiler +


There was a Drow+Visage pick in a SMM tournament in Dota 1 some time ago if i am not mistaken.

That doesn't count because that's the version when Drow's aura was still global on creeps and totally broken.

"Quite often" is a bit of a stretch, but there is no way you can make an argument that Sniper is picked more often than Drow.

I would think greater than 1% of games would have to be somewhere in that definition.

Didn't Poseidon stomp Fnatic with Drow?

Not that stomping Fnatic is really an achievement these days.

What he means is that it's not a crazy unique event for him to be picked like a meepo or something would be.

23 games since 6.78 http://www.datdota.com/hero.php?q=Drow Ranger

I would still mark my calender when shes picked.

Sniper only 9 games, but still the only thing you can say is that she is picked more often then sniper.

Dumb, obvious discussion anyways.

Someone, somewhere does pick drow quite a lot. Even in pubs.

Also this ( http://dotabuff.com/heroes/invoker ) is kinda sad if you look at the "best vs" category. Poor invoker needs a buff. IceFrog plz.

Drow's good at lower levels and extremely good in some non-AP/CM situations. If she's ever pitted against a team with no real way to close on her and no way to disable her, then she turns into a slightly worse version of Viper.
