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.

Man, I want to see how many more times Kupon3ss can trash TC during this discussion and get responses from every like he is fucking deadly serious.

I'm with Yango, Mechanics is a loaded term and is so overused its almost meaningless. Its all dota. If you lose, you made poor dota decisions. If you win, you made good dota decisions. I am sure clicking quickly and accurately works in there too somehow.

your decisionmaking is so poor that you can't see why it's not poor decisionmaking

Mechanics in Dota is fundamentally different than SC2 on a professional level. The only heroes that you could make that analogy for is a Naga/PL, Mappo, and Tinker, and to some extent Chen, Visage, & Enchantress.

True mechanics for me has reaction speed + making plays based on CDS and judging how much each attack+spell does. It's all built into you, until you become Arnold Schwarzenegger.

I wasn't too much into cutting though, only bulking and I became a Pudge instead.

Centaur works fine for me.

I find Timbersaw still does work. And I can sometimes get away with stuff like LD or Furion offlane.

Most utility offlaners can actually work well. You just have to slap a necro to be able to actually break base if your team can't.

I had to split push with Dark Seer to get my 10 hero challenge win with him cause my team refused to push.

lol, I thought I double posted instead of editing when I saw your LD flair below my post.

But yes, I do concur that Flash's BW mechanics are fucking sexy to watch.

According to the my last fucking game, PA is a viable offlaner and I should solo safe lane with venge. But I live in the trench of the highest level.

Yeah fuck that though, I just take timbersaw off lane and chain till the game is over.

I hate it once you're fighting in the enemy base though. Not much trees to chain.
