hey so i'm a noob and i was just in a pub game where my lane partner Axe did this crazy strat that worked really well.
he got counter helix at level 1 and sat behind the enemy tower, and killed a couple waves of their creeps. the guys we were fighting against in lane didnt know what to do so they just sat under their tower and farmed. basically they had to choose between taking damage or their tower taking damage, and before they knew it they and their tower were at half health (about 3-4 waves) we then got a double kill and killed the tower before 5 minutes into the game.
just wanted to know if anyone knew some other interesting pulling strategies other than the normal one where a support pulls to keep creeps near tower in a long lane and give the carry some extra xp. i'm from lol so they are totally new to me yo that's crazy. thanks for sharing man, i'm going to try that out next time. I don't have any interesting pulling strategies, but I saw a pro game where a guy used a push stick to push himself up a cliff. It was crazy. That's not exactly crazy, and it's extremely easy to stop a solo-ing axe that goes behind the tower if the lane has 2 ranged heroes, because all they need to do is kite him to no end. Take 1 stunner/veno or some guy with a slow or what not, and he's dead if he's doing it alone. An axe doing that can be extremely abusive to two melee heroes in the same lane, but that happens in pubs all the time. So 2 heroe beats 1! wow what a shocker. Obviously he won't do it alone. Best combo imo is axe+dazzle (i do it sometimes with friends), since dazzle has high base dmg so he can harass back. Also, if you are 3 friends, whats even better is the third guy picking a jungler and farming the enemy jungle, so if more than 2 heros come to kill axe he can assist you. My second line does elaborate on how just any SINGLE range hero can easily deal with a solo axe so long as he bothers to micro, while a second hero in the lane can stay at the tower to leech xp while topping up on his consumables. If it's some other hero with axe such as dazzle, or warlock / warlock + loa then obviously you need an equivalent number of range heroes, ideally with stuns and nukes, and not hard carries.
One more thing I forgot to add, is that since you creep jump on your hard lane, there is a high chance that the enemy hard carry will be there. Of course a decent team would rotate him to mid or something.

At first it was a team decision to kick AngeL from the team along with our manager MystresS since we felt like AngeL did not devote enough time to play anymore. He had found a new job and a girlfriend, the girlfriend being our manager which I really had no problems with, if it did not affect the team. Well, it did.

you can edit the recommended items in game. and if you dont like the way that works you can edit it game, go to the local profile steam folder where it saves the builds (saved as the <build_name>.txt) and then copy paste the data from there to the recommended items spot.
