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 have a feeling Ice will nerf Kaolin only slightly before entering him in -cm. After that, he probably nerfs him in 5 patches straight, just like Dark Seer.

700 on main and 900 on smurf, ya sure the games on my main are about 2 times harder than smurf, where i almost never play support on smurf and my main's winrate is very messy because i didnt give a damn to win/lose when stacking with casual friends since early this year (it is now come to the point that stacking with me = hard game that the friends dont give a shit to win/lose too lol).

somehow DBR was more accurate (and entertaining):S

halfdead on a sunday afternoon, no dota2 tourney no dota2 stream wtf??!

That ult is getting nerfed for sure. It makes veno ult look weak and sad by comparison.

Earth Spirit is just stupid and he is gonna get nerfed 100% next patch. All his skills are borderline undodgeable and deal way too much damage for how spammable they are.
The pull is stupid too.

I think the most impressive part is that he's put in 150 games on ES in 16 days...

The pull is stupid too.

The pull is the neatest part of the character and the fact that he is a walking lvl 1 force staff is cool. It all the rest of the BS like the ult that just murders everyone and can be applied with unlimited statue drops that sucks. Its like doom, but an AOE and it never goes away(minus the silence, but E Spirit has that covered too).

The big plays are fun. The "I don't need to aim" aoe ult that never ends is not so much.

The best part about that hero is how Rolling Boulder was actually supposed to have 90/140/180/210 damage on each rank, but incorrectly had fixed damage on each rank in his DotA 1 release and was just left that way.

Icefrog probably realized that the hero was so busted even without scaling damage and decided it'd be a bad idea to buff the hero.

well the hero concept and mechanics are fun as hell, i assume that number nerfs should be fine or is his insane mobility just too much for dota atm

lol i didnt know that was unintentional, one of my favorite things about the hero is how unlike virtually every other nuke in the game, his spell damage doesnt scale.

Actually just up the mana cost, and nerf some damage number, and you can put kaolin in CM

Yeh, his combos aren't even that hard to execute. Super overrated.
