centaur was the worst. He came out at a time that the game was slower - but he would just run at you and kill you with 0 items. Fucking bullshit

Song number 2. edvard grieg - hall of the mountain king, song fits so well.

Btw any1 mind telling me how Empire laned their lineup vs C9? Didnt catch the start of the match.
A game where the first thing you do is scout with a “worker”. Does that make any sense? Who scouts with a “worker”? That’s like sending out the janitor to perform recon, what general would do that? Retarded game.

Phoenix at first release. If I recall correctly it was near 70% win rate on the places that tracked them in DotA. It was just so funny, all skills except the ulti has been modified 3+ times since then to balance him. Was funny how his win rate went up the first patch they nerfed him since people started doing better skill builds.

Edit, you can go even further back for more crazy heroes. But I think he was the most OP added past 2007.

70 base damage, Radiance + Sticky napalm Bat was pretty crazy

2007 was ~6.40. That's a looong time ago.

Yeah batrider just after the TI2 buff was one of the most dumb hero.

Darkseer with aghs making illus of your teammates was also pretty fun.

I was actually talking about the original Bat. Dota 2 bat had 50 base damage. Original was close to 70. Now it has 40. It was almost halved.

Going back so long we have a lot of dumb shit, like Kunkka's boat giving 30% movespeed (besides the other stuff) and a similar short CD, Trent's Eye of the Forest had some ridiculous implementations, Weaver had Watchers... 2007 is a long time ago.

Just patched and can't load the game up, says 'Preparing to launch Dota 2', steam status changes to "Playing Dota 2" then crashes... Any advice?

nothing, shit seems to be pretty bugged atm try restarting steam etc. the usual but there seems to be alot of different errors atm

Not just me then?
Can't help but feel this is something on my end, have tried all the standard stuff like reinstall/disable steam cloud/verify cache etc etc... :/

anyone got any ideas? reinstalled windows 7 before this which i thought might havesomething to do with it

Fuck Kunkka, he was the carry. He had better agy gain, and better int gain. He was nerfed in every stat.

Im glad there is but i do now see that the wcs format isnt that bad when you have sooooo many matches. Like i ever look at the standigs of all the tournaments... nah because they all look alike.

But more matches isnt bad
