My first game was in the 5.6x neighborhood and the only heroes I can remember playing are Summoner, Antimage, and Crystal Maiden (at least I think it was those three, if they were around then). I have a distinct memory of playing AM with 2 Rings of Regen to start consistently. I remember the community division between continuing to play 5.84c and 6.0x quite well--I was on the 5.84c side for a while

oh everybody who first play dota that never play RTS before would pick sniper or zeus. Zeus is a fucking god and sniper is just simply gun laser > arrows bitches. My first hero was sniper too but then i played troll warlord consistently with AI ALONE for month before transition into Garena =)),,,,

These were all in grade 9-10th and i basicly asked my friend: Yo dawg, whats the strongest hero in this game. My friends: troll or void dawg. Okay! xD oh the good times

I was not sober for my first hundred or so games of dota. So I don't remember much, except for playing vs the ai with friends and getting continually raped and not understanding what the raxes did.

Also, is it just me or does it take FOREVER to download tournament replays?

Though randoming Dark Terminator was a very fun thing

I feel really sure that omniknight once had omnislash. Like, really sure of it. But I was like twelve or thirteen at the time (this was about 7-8 years ago)

Can someone tell me if im crazy?

Can't remember my very first game, but I do recall the first time I faced a Phantom Lancer (I had no AoE, and the concept of illusions was foreign to me). Challenging to say the least.

Well Omniknight used to have an ability called Holy Blade which made him have longer range than Sniper.. nothing about him pretending to be Cloud Strife...

Doesn't beat the infamous Astral Trekker:

Permanent disable on a single hero all by himself, long aoe stun, permanente magic immunity with a lot of health and armor as a side bonus probally make him the most OP hero of Dota. I don't think I played with him though, I only remember witnessing the nightmares of the old Death Ward Riki. Pudge's flies were freaking annoying as well, something like 95% evasion, self replicating summons. If you didn't have aoe spells there was basically nothing you could do.

^Yep bots now attack Roshan and often die while doing it without even trying to run away

It's dumb too, they could fix it so easily... just have bots RECOMMEND roshan and only go for him if you ping or attack him, it's completely unrealistic behaviour to go for Roshan when you're not even powerful enough to attack him, has anyone here ever seen a player die to roshan in a normal game? (Unless there was some huge fight in Roshans lair I guess).


I saw roshan get a triple kill vs ursa+SK+veno minute 1. I really need to increase my MMR.
The only barrier to truth is the presumption that you already have it. It's through our pane (pain) we window (win though).

Well there were no side shops or tp scrolls, so regen meant you could stay in your lane.

Watching a few siren replays from the tournaments, the ways people build her seem to be wildly different. Or should I say, iceiceice has a totally different one from everyone else.
lanm and fnty both go arcane boots then rush heart (optionally putting in a diffusal 1 after the vit booster, but not always), occasionally get vlad's. If she's mid she gets a bottle.

iceiceice goes pms midas boots wand treads diffusal 1 heart manta.

2 questions came to mind - 1. hp regen? (in one of the replays lanm naga literally ferried tangos to himself for 20 minutes), and if ice's build was because he was really ahead or just because that's how he likes to play her.

have been playing a lot of Shadow Shaman, love him!
getting blink dagger as the first big item after arcane boots and a bracer is fun, catching any who are out of position.

but damn he is squishy, dies from a few aoe spells who aren't even meant for me if I ain't carefully.

What does people think of a bkb or linkes after blink dagger ?
