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.

I was playing a match and well, my team fed a tiny. I was thinking about it and was curious, what is a good way of countering tiny? Was thinking realize would make him nearly useless but when not able to counter pick, how should one play against tiny? For example, warding can screw over Lycan. That sort of thinking.


casual cloak no one ever just buys a cloak that 15% really cuts down on his ability to burst people.
silence/hex and mobility items to keep you out of his reach

Take the runes by camping maybe 5 seconds ahead every 2 minutes. Tiny is incredibly rune dependent because he doesn't have a big mana pool and he's prone to harass and usually forced to use toss to last hit early in most matchups. No rune means no gank.

Yeah, while laning against him, I was getting most of the runes (no wards means I at times got it wrong). The one difficulty is that I was morplhing and my range is pretty much within his attack range so one wrong step, I am down to 50% hp. I do have the bottle so I live but he hurtsssss

Solo mid Tiny can't even do anything to you until level 4 at least so you can just destroy him im cs and harass. He has basically no rune control too.

Dual lane Tiny with someone like CM is when you have trouble in lane against him.

Yeah, I usually dominate them when it comes to Cs. Just gets more difficult to screw him over later on. Just hoping for a match where a support purchases those rare and unique items called... wards :-)

Aggressive dual lane will most probably get quite a few levels from kills

M5 last member got his visa, and they'll play with CWM (?) It isn't clear if he'll play or just be a substitute.

"In between the appointments we have talked to Icefrog, in order to find out whether there are any options in case Ayrat would receive a rejection for the second time in a row."

The deal with CWM was just in case Silent had his Visa denied. I'm not sure why they kept talking so much about it, but it was just a back up plan that in the end wasn't necessary anyway.

From a private conversation with Alex we found out that Mousesports were there to act as substitutes only for European teams, in case one of them couldn’t have make it, whereas WE would substitute a team from Asia.

Didn't know this, though I guess it makes sense.

It also remove any doubt about WE and mouz being at the TI as anything but spectators, everybody got their visa so neither mouz nor WE will play

that's unfortunate, I think the backup teams' flight tickets and accommodations are also paid for by Valve?
