I'm sooo surprised that batrider isn't being picked every game cause IMO he's the best hero in the game.

Not every game but i'm really surprised he doesn't ever get picked, haven't seen him in any tournies recently. The dota2 metagame right now is really weird

I'm also very surprised about batrider not being picked in pro games... I'd really like someone to give a solid argument why he's not picked.

Omg I know it's driving me crazy, hopefully the chinese will start playing and show the way haha.

Hopefully Terrorblade will get added to the pool, I think he's going to become very popular soon.

I hate the current terrorblade. The old hard carry was superior to this one.

Just was playing a game and Juggernaut omni-slashed and killed Lich. Then the unit said "I'm the juggernaut, Lich"

I love how they're taking the time to make specific quotes for so many instances.

If you don't get the quote, its a parody of xmen 3: "I'm the juggernaut, bitch."
Terrible movie, but kind of a humorous quote.

Really wish there was a way to scale the UI, clicking it by accident because it covers half my screen accounts for like half my deaths in dota 2

Ok so I thought of making a blog about it but then realized I didn't have much content. I just need to vent. If you care to read it or not that's fine I just wanted to type it out.

So I understand being new to DotA 2, hell maybe even the genre as a whole, but for the love of god if you're new don't feed. I get you may not know what each hero does and you'll prob die. That's fine. I'm not pro or even medium by any means. But like common sense shit and people just blatently ignoring it is pissing me off.

Prime example is the game i was just in i was bot as WR w/ an Axe. The axe was playing his first game. Proceeds to engage 2v1 w/o our creeps there and them having several of their own. Dies like this at least 4 times. Then another time we get a kill and he's super low HP like sub 200hp. Doesn't go back....goes back to killing creeps. We get jumped by the 2nd person that was coming back to lane. He dies like this 3 times or more. End of the game the dude is 1-16..... I get new to game but common sense would prevent like 7 of those deaths...at least. Just wanted to vent. Thanks TL if you read it. If not, meh I feel better for typing it out.

Because the only carry that Batrider would be ulting is pretty much always banned every game (Anti-Mage).

The only reason why the game feels weird now is 2 things:

1. It's beta
2. Not all heroes are in the game yet

People end up making strategies centered around the heroes that are in the game, so the metagame feels strange.

If you're not dying as an Axe . . . you are not playing ballsy enough. You get yourself into as large a group of enemies as possible, with as many of their creeps around as possible, draw all of the aggro, and either die -- or SPIN TO WIN. You should have commended him on his ballsy play, and pointed him in the direction of Skeleton King (http://www.playdota.com/guides/epic-return).

I'm in beta, could really use some people to play with and show me the ropes of Dota(just played HoN/LoL before), plus its more fun when you got people to talk too and help you out. The friend who got me in doesn't play that much and none of my other friends got it. Steam name = tlbluebird.. I'm still in process of learning all the Dota heroes just going through playing 2-3 of each.

Real men always make First blood as Axe. One way or another.
