Even if you do get out of the suicide lane solo and team up somewhere you aren't going to be using her effectively at all compared to an easier "new" hero like a lich.
Dunno, from my experience low level games don't have junglers and trilanes so there is no such thing as "suicide lane solo"
Though i agree that WR isn't the best beginner hero
I still think with powershot you can safely farm, shackle is easy to land and helps the team, windrun keeps you safe as well. Ult is good for pushing towers. So overall the skillset is fairly good for beginners.
Dark Seer's Ion Shell as seen here it says it does 90dmg pr second duration 20 seconds. Does that mean if someone takes the full duration of it it's 1800dmg if they got 0 magical resistance?!

That seems like a lot
yep
thats why hes the best hard laner. Fuck ion shell when you're melee. And even if ur ranged, a simple ion shell and vacuum will kill you. Soe is cute. Less than tobi tho. holy shit he sings well

Uh, LoH is good, but what does a pub game mean exactly? I've seen several other pros do the same on stream, including dendi's own windrunner 2v1 in the hard lane he was 7-1 15 minutes in solo matchmaking.
I think most people would agree what LoH is the most consistent player on Navi and rather integral to their success. When Dendis plays go wrong they almost always have LoH to fall back on. When you have an anchor you can play like that since you know your back is always covered if things go wrong. If you consider consistency a part of being a good player than you can't help but rate LoH up there.
Honestly I think it's pretty impossible to determine who is actually the best Na'Vi player because when the team is on form it always looks like all of them are the best players in Europe at their respective roles (except possibly XBOCT, but that's just me). I can't wait for TI2, it's going to be all about Na'Vi vs China for me.

Why is there no reporting leavers but rather just reporting behaviour, I'd rather deal with a hundred thousand bitchy whiny little kids than have four people leaving <5 mins in the game fuck me.
Also are people botting this game, I've seen Pudge's that don't level up at all and just stand at some bush and hook people to their team with 100% accuracy etc.
I really want to enjoy this game and it's the first time I was having fun playing DotA games but the leavers are really ruining it for me, not had a single 5vs5 so far.
Not to mention the spam of Russians on euro server even though there should be a Russian server and having to wait for peoples ancient PC's to load.
Leavers get punished without any reporting needed hence why no reporting for leavers. A pudge not leveling up and standing in the bush you can report for intentional feeding/ability abuse/afk with a comment of him just standing in bush doing nothing whole game.

Okay sounds fair enough, I guess it should stabilize after beta. Could at least add a vote to give up option so I don't have to either waste my time in 1vs5 or take a leave in my record.
After one player has left you get a notification saying you can leave the game without getting an abandon. So just leave if you want to. You don't get punished for leaving a game that has already had leavers. Only the person who left first gets punished since he ruined the game not guys afterward. Big red text appears where kills normally go.
Wonder if we'll ever get a system that heavily attempts to match up solo players with other solo players. It's never fun to play vs a stack of 3/4/5 in a game where coordination is so very important.

Except all heroes have an innate 25% magic resists. So it is only 1350. You also have to think that dark seer has to survive during this time, and during 20 seconds most heroes have CD's reset for certain spells so they'll have a chance to use their nukes/stuns twice.
also nobody sits in the radius for 20 sec. If you want to kill someone that way you have to catch two people in a awesome vacuum that traps them close together and then cast ion shell on one of them.
