Usually I just try to "farm" enemy supports but this gets harder and harder when the opponent start playing "5 man dota". What am I supposed to do ? Give me some advicec because I found that I really enjoy playing this hero .This is the problem with SS. If he gets farmed/fed and gets about 15+ bloodstone charges by minute 25, he is brutally effective and can generally "just win" by being unkillable and having ridiculous ganking power. But almost anything much less and he can be almost worthless. The saddest hero on the planet is a severely gimped SS. | ||

If you can't get it around 20 minutes into the game, it's not worth getting it at all. Just farm BKB or Orchid and try to kill off squishy supports in team fights. | ||

Storm's item selection is very sensitive to how the game is developing. If your early tempo isn't good, you have to think about how the best way to catch up is, and select your next item based on that.

You get Orchid for ganking and solo-killing in situations where neither team is grouping up. If you expect to teamfight, BKB and Sheep are both better than Orchid. | ||

Neither, Navi used wisp again during their match against Znation just now and lost. They also picked a Rubrick. I hope your imbalance jibe is meant as a joke. | ||

I guess that game was just all around awesome. Made wisp look too strong. I also heard in that game that they were warning the players against excessive pausing, which I think is essential. The pauses make watching dota so hard, sometimes the broadcast is half pause. | ||
