alright u didn't even use examples or good ones
blink makes euls better in multiple ways
many heroes buy force AND blink it doesn't invalidate that item.
blink's interaction with a wide variety of abilities is the only reason heroes with those abilities are pickable.

I can't wait for somebody to complain that i'm talking about doter.

I just hate the whole "surprise" ganking of every game where everyone wants to rush Blink.
When I started seeing Kunkka, Slark and Wraith King getting Blink Dagger, I was officially hating the item.

Blink dagger is a fun item and makes for interesting combinations. I don't want to see the item reduced in power, but I wouldn't mind seeing Force Staff getting a little boost. If only because its is one of the more entertaining items to watch in pro-doto.

And Yolo king is best king. Always blink dagger all the time.

its def a lame version of rugby, but if you've grown up around the game you understand why everyone gets riled up about it. just like why American's don't understand why soccer is so popular in Europe...we didn't grow up around it being a national sport so our experience doesn't give us the right perspective to understand.

personally, I love both. im an American soccer hipster...I was into it before it was cool to care about the game.

Soccer, popular in europe? I mean sure it's popular here but soccer is really more of a worldwide thing.

I personally have no interest in soccer though, seems so boring

wth is gaelic football

I once had an Australian Phys Ed. coach who taught us to play cricket. What an incredibly silly sport. Its like it came out of a Monty Python sketch.

Soccer is like baseball. Its the game where you don't need to watch every second and can just wait for the announcer to get really loud. The rest of the time you can talk and drink.

America foot ball is exciting because of the anyone can be an arm chair coach and claim they knew the best play. Plus there is always the potential for a hail mary during every play.

every sport has its armchair coaches.

there is excitement every play, but I think one of the real draws is the physical domination during the game, more so than the other sports sans rugby...which makes me wonder how rugby isn't a thing in the states.
