The only things that dota 2 fails at is the booth babes. Instead we get booth guys. Fail (for straight males).

Treads v phase is a much more reasonable decision than dagon on every hero. Stop exaggerating.

Whats your preference on Sf? I like phase but I know many who go treads.

SF? Treads for tread switching + bottle. Invoker definitely phase on any build.

Phase for sure for invoker, but I go phase for Sf especially during early game gankage before blink. He has so much early game damage that has the potential to chase people down

Admittedly I don't play much SF, I'm pretty terrible at him.

It is ok :-) I see it played both ways. At least from what I heard, Phase is more of a chinese preference (although not 100% sure about it). You should try it next time playing him, might enjoy it.

Treads are for when you are ahead it keeps you ahead by a lot on SF because tread switching ect ect is SO powerful. but phase is when behind since it helps far more for getting souls stacked after deaths and everything.

But i like treads on exort invoker infinitely more than phase. tread switching for sunstrikes makes that spell so much cheaper.

I think with exort invoker, you do not need the added damage from phase so you can get away with treads (and the increase attack speed balances out not using wex). But when going QW, you do not have that nice added damage from exort so phase helps for farming (and that early game gank potential is so strong).

Edit: Should add, I mostly always go phase for invoker since well... I rarely go exort in pubs

My friend was under the impression that you can pre purchase access to the game for the 30$ and that it not only let you play but allowed you to give a key to a friend. I can't seem to find this offer if it even existed but I would much appreciate it if someone helped me out. I want to purchase the game but not at the 99$ price I've seen it for so far T_T

Where the hell did you see $99?!

I am offering to get beta keys for people for £4.77 atm. I do not profit from this, this is the price for 3 ingame chest keys which people trade for a beta key. PM me if you're interested.

lol ah seems that was the Valve complete pack. Like I said I was under the impression that you could pre pay for access into the beta. Guess only way is to take the survey or see if anyone is selling than correct?

Yes, pretty much. The Valve complete pack is actually $30 or so. The £4.77 offers just a beta key with nothing else attached and is through trading with other players rather than buying straight from Valve.
