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.

My opinion: Blink is an 'okay' item, but to be i'd prefer to not get it, i'd rather have some mobility on my SF and instead of using him as an ultimate, use him for his now very much so boosted damage output, ontop of his ulti being quite easy to get off in a decent position with good mobility.

Basically, i'd prefer to just get a drums or something like it. Because i know blink dagger adds mobility, but i mean mobility during fights and ganks even while taking damage.

A lot of people seem to think it's core on SF, and i respectfully disagree.

But that's just my opinion, of course.
From the Ghastly Eyrie I can see to the ends of the world, and from this vantage point I declare with utter certainty that this one is in the bag!

BKB is way better since it provide the escape mechanic that SF actually needed. The truth is blink is a very luxury item on SF, you are not an initiator but a carry. Often in time getting your utli off is crucial and making sure the ulti went off on the enemy team is your teammates duty to keep them in place. You could find several pro games where SF just skip dagger/lorthar entirely 4 bkb, manta, drum etc...

- Added a cooldown to being able to find a match when a player declines or abandons a game.

Oh yes!.

And the TA nerf. No wonder she raped so much. Maybe Valve should slow down with the adding heroes to CM.

It's not a nerf. It's a bug fix

Kind of a nerf or fix depending on how you look at it. The DOTA 2 engine could actually order the meld minus armor before the bonus damage which wasn't possible in DOTA 1, but now they have reverted that. Or so I heard. This is similar to the change with blink dagger and refraction since it used to work on a triggered heal.

I believe most heroes are going straight into Captains mode now because there aren't really any major tournaments going on such as Dreamhacks. Correct me if I'm wrong. :X

In serious older Chinese games, BKB is standard. Even PIS says that Blink is for flashy plays and isn't as good as BKB.
