If only he knew that Warlock actually counters Lycan. I mean, he's smart, but he doesn't realize it.

Yeah Im going to try CD & CM. I mean I was also thinking AP because I want to get as many games in as I can within 5 hours. But I dont want to risk the annoying heros in AP

in general people put way too much emphasis on 'the draft' in pub games. In pubs, the draft is one of the last reasons you'll lose. teamwork and coordinator that goes into making a draft a success/failure are generally not something that is seen in pubs. 99% of pubs you can just outplay your enemy and win regardless what heroes anyone has. I think people like to blame 'the draft' because it's an easy scape goat.

He said he wanted to "heal through the doom", but the team was to busy flaming him. I just picked one of the 4 supports he drafted and he played puck mid. Then we lost because this draft was trash and we had no right click.
Warlock does mess up Lycan pretty good. But what doesn't the rock mess up, really?

This is true. As long as you have a basic plan you communicate to the team your fine:
"Yo, we are going to wreck towers at level 6, so get there"
Or
"Yo, we are going to protect morphling until he becomes a pretty, pretty flower and murders everyone."
Or:
"Yo, warlock gets to 6 and then we fight every time he has rock. We push the teir 3s when he has double rock. Then Quad rock."
Edit: GIVE PITLORD

I mean captains who first-pick bloodseeker for themselves can be a tad off-putting but they aren't that common and sometimes the other team gets them too 
Pls no orakl

pretty sure the 'warlock hardcounters wolfman' is a reference to a gd meme about that subject

As long as its not some reference to Twilight, I support this meme.

The only time this thread talks about dota is when someone says something so stupid that every one in the forum has to flame the guy for being an idiot.
Sounds like the dota community in a nutshell to me.

its why we need to link solo mmr to liquiddota accounts

That’s exactly what I need, some 15 year old kid with 3200 MMR telling me how wrong I am and that my MMR is crap. There is a reason I like that Valve doesn't have visible MMR and that is it.
