Kind of. But he's also good vs heroes that relies heavily on Bkb and hate being slowed like Sven, ursa and naix

I just saw the reddit post that only 18 teams registered for open EU quals. Can we get the TLIH band together and register until 18 CET?
We might end up playing vs 2xTI winners.

EDIT: I just want to fulfill my dream of killing sumail in a game of dotes2.

I don't think anything will ever be as strong as earth spirit on release. That 1400 range no-LOS instastun netted me a loooooot of unearned wins

Dendis new team is playing against the russian talent stack KBU now in the CIS open quals. Should be a fun stomp.

I tend to go some combination of Orchids / Kaya / Bloodstone / BKB / Linkens
Occasionally Euls if I need it defensively

Drow ranger when her aura was first reworked was some busted shit
From the Ghastly Eyrie I can see to the ends of the world, and from this vantage point I declare with utter certainty that this one is in the bag!

I refuse to believe any hero was better than release ES (instant 1k range stun and like 2x the dmg on every spell) or release MK (infinite jinguduration, armorignoring lifesteal), only close one is Cent with stunning ult.

kunkka was also broken on release but the game was a lot more casual and everybody sucked back then.

also spectre for one version had a dispersion that had a chance to reflect damage to an aoe around her with a mini stun effect that also applied to illusions. nobody knew how to play dota back then but one thing i remember is she canceled every single channel damage ability and had a chance to reflect nukes like finger of death (aoe nukes on illusions had a random chance to compeltely kill you). then it was changed to be like today's dispersion except pure damage and except damage wasnt split and this lasted for years

can you believe that

rip qwerty

Naga sleep also used to not apply to buildings. So you could just go highground, sleep and take a lane of rax. But everybody was shit at the game, so it didn't matter. :D
