You basically spam it on lane & in jungle for flash farming purposes, and get back to ganking afterwards. I realise with my excessive usage of dark pact, a soul ring is pretty much essential for my playing style. | ||

We are happy to reveal the location of the RaidCall EMS One DOTA2 Finals. The finals of the Fall 2013 season will be held in Poland once again, but we have moved to Tychy, a city 20 minutes from Katowice. On the 7th and 8th of December, the qualified teams will fight it out for a prize pool of $35,000. It feels like a bad joke but it's ESL so hey anything goes. http://dota2.raidcall-emsone.com/news/tychy-to-host-the-dota2-finals/ | ||

The level 4 damage is insane. I mean, ofc it depends on comps, but if you're gonna be teamfighting, maxed gale+ult will actually just make people die | ||

I realise with my excessive usage of dark pact, a soul ring is pretty much essential for my playing style. The thing is, Pact's mana cost goes DOWN with ranks. Even if you use the spell more with Pact max, it shouldn't outstrip your mana usage if you have Drum or Aquila, so long as you keep/send a Clarity to top off before a fight. The key is that you have to always be Treads swapping when you are using Pact to farm. Slark benefits doubly from Treads swapping with Dark Pact because you can Int Treads->cast the spell->Str treads->take the self damage->back to Agi treads to use Treads swapping to reduce the effect of both the mana cost and the self-damage. | ||

That team was doomed from the start. Can only imagine Dignitas's ignorance as an excuse for them thinking otherwise. | ||

I don't think he was either, it's just funny to joke about it. But he has had some bad luck getting to MLG. But everyone has bad runs and times when they have bounced around from job to job. | ||

But of course, ongamers being just another tripe gamespot property they're not going to say anything that might make a team look bad. They won't even get a quote from Korok in the 3 articles they wrote about this story. | ||

Not really a major factor when you decide to host a LAN tournament with a Chinese and Korean team. | ||

Then a number of shitty formats, lackluster online qualifiers, forgettable Lan's later. Just find it hard to care. Is it nice to have more Lan events? Sure. But I'd rather watch any other Lan event. WCG last year got me more excited than any EMS has. | ||
