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.

Out of curiosity, which heroes are you talking about?

You admited that some of them were terrible. It's ok to like terrible things. Like the Constantine movie. It's so bad, but so good.

I thought there was more. I know he flat out loses to Brood and against Skywrath he is going to have a hard time. Phoenix also probably destroys him just on pushing power alone. Maybe Enchantress could as well. Hard to say on that one though IMO.

He definitely loses to Meepo, Lone Druid, probably vs Brood and Visage. And I can see some other heroes he would struggle with.

how badly does he lose to meepo?

Like, Meepo has to poof to cs at least until level 3, even after that u can probably keep out-csing him, and ur nuke bypasses meepo's magic resist completely. Sure one meepo can cancel ur ult on the other so that part is questionable but I feel like you should get a biiiig advantage early.

Visage can't possibly beat bane... can't cs, gets to 6 after bane, and just dies.

I was exaggerating somewhat when I said 2 heroes. There are a lot of specific counterpicks to Bane (Enigma is one that I've seen in tournament 1v1), but you can't blindly pick most of those heroes in this format because they have bad matchups too.

In all honesty he can't do anything to push and he has no kill potential till 6 so you're guaranteed to get levels as long as you have regen. That's pretty much exactly how Meepo beats him. Poof for CS, get XP, crush lane post 3.

Brood is the same way. Spawn Spiderlings for CS, Build an army at 3. Don't stop pushing till you win.

Brood doesn't die when you kill her Spiderlings.

The off-Meepo can almost be 100-0ed at 7 even if you have to use Sleep to stop the main Meepo from breaking your channel. You have to play very carefully to not die, and it's not nearly as simple as pushing mindlessly.

Haven't really tried the matchup, but I feel like LD could do okay, and if he hits 6 at the same time, he can't really die to bane.

Trying to play the matchup in my head, maybe bane has a few tricks that could make it tricky for LD.

Visage has a lot of magic resistance, he doesn't die to a single combo by bane..

If bane did magic damage maybe but he doesn't really

Okay his ult is magic but lets be real visage gets an extra 12% at best.

LD was one of the handful of heroes that I consider both a definitive win against Bane and stable enough to pick blindly in this 1v1 format (though it's less good than it normally is because this format allows Bottle-crow and Soul Ring and Bane abuses both of those harder than LD does). Brood as well, and she abuses Soul Ring as hard/harder than Bane does.

There's a lot of stupid shit certain heroes can do in this format because bottle-crow and Soul Ring are allowed.

He also has zero armor at level 1 while Bane has 4 AND more damage, meaning that Bane just plays like an asshole from level 1 to deny you CS then abuses Soul Ring + Brain Sap after level 3 because this format allows Soul Ring.
