Ouch. I had a similar game the other day but it was a spirit breaker with DR at about 20 mins... sucked. Such is the way of the pub I guess...

I am really enjoying watching EG.Fear's stream. I love how he talks through the game and his thought process while he plays. As a relative newbie, I am learning a ton. I have been looking around for some Dota podcasts, does anyone have some suggestions?

Won't that result in a net loss for your team since you don't have rockets level one for scouting/last hitting?

Overall? Probably.

But the surprise factor when your lane opponent tries to trade with you at level 1 because Shadowfiend has shitty base damage at level 1--and then realizes you don't have shitty base damage--has got to be worth it for at least a game.

This should be fixed next patch yea? kinda cool find

It works in DotA 1 as well, and I don't think it's acknowledged as being a bug.

You guys are so lucky, I can't even play Dota 2 without getting 15 fps and minimum 500 ms ping (which averages to about 700 ms because of spikes).

After you hit print screen just open up MS Paint and paste it with the selection box tool thing, then you just save it from there!

You can also just go to the steam screenshots bit - one of the dropdowns has manage screenshots or something very similar in it. Can't double check sadly, at work ATM.

You seem to be doing remarkably well for someone who claims they suck Phil.

The question in my head right now: Do those awful pubbers think they are actually good at this game? Since I keep losing games, mostly thanks to those geniuses, my MMR has hit an all-time low and I have to say - it's retarded down here.

Yeah, sure, 4 melee carries is the perfect plan. How can I not see that. And how dare I think that Shuriken is good spell, it's obviously trash, stats are way better, same with Ether Shock. Nonono, Faceless Void is the PERFECT ganker on level 2, I'm just too stupid to see that...

Seriously...I'm not good myself by any means, otherwise I could maybe win the game alone, but I'm really sick and tired of this bullshit.

Zero farm/last hits maybe? At least, for the early game.

To be fair, one of shadow fiend's strengths is to be able to farm ridiculously well, no matter how the game goes. I've had hon (I know, dota thread, but it applies) games where I'm playing soulstealer (shadow fiend port) mid vs chipper (anyone who plays soulstealer a decent bit knows what a fucking nightmare this is, if you end the laning phase 0-3 you're doing well) and end up going like 0-11, but still ending up carrying the shit out of that game, ending at well over 400 gpm. Point being, a comeback is almost always possible as shadow fiend, no matter what.

Only if the Enemy team is stupid enough to allow you to sit and farm. If a SF gets shut down in the laneing phase by a hero with major burst (Tinker,Storm,NS etc...) They can pretty much follow him around the whole game and kill him. Any 2 heroes can.

I can consider my self a pretty decent SF player if that means anything.
