Soon(tm)

Qualifiers start may 12th according to valve and obviously we need to know who is in qualfiers well in advance, and to know who is in qualifiers we need to know who is invited.

So literally any day now expect invitation announcements.

Can someone explain to me how Fortunes End vs Demonic Purge is fair? Doesn't that skill make Shadow Demon's ulti seem pretty shit? I know it has then slow and goes throught BKB, but ...

Fortune's End has an initial channel and only lasts 0.3s if you don't channel it, while Demonic Purge is straight-up 5s duration.


Negating the buffs is the same right? You mean the slow, I assume.

Yes, but the slow is actually a pretty big deal. Most purges in the game would be way worse if they didn't come with attached slows.

Comparing to Demonic Purge also has the issue that Demonic Purge STILL is bugged to not slow attack speed (even though the AS slow works correctly for the other purges in the game).

Yeah. I tend to think that the debuff component is stronger with AOE rather than the Demonic purge is heavily used for bkb piercing slow. Applying one time negation to a unit is underwhelming for an ulti imo(purge side is weaker to slow side).

Demonic purge is actually pretty good at netting 1v1 solo kills vs almost all supports since almost no support can deal with disrupt + soul catcher + ult + shadowpoison 1v1 at any level until they have force/mek or are visage (3v1 hax).

Not that that's exactly a key reason to pick SD but w/e

The guy giving 100% evasion in an AoE, being able to duplicate himself including items for xx sec, enabling him to use double midas, necrobook etc? Yeah he's the king of heroes, making me think IceFrog was high creating him.

Well, can you imagine how many complaints there would be if Icefrog released sven or lina as a new hero today?

He kinda has to come up with weird and wonderful shit or nobody would play the new heroes lol.
