How are you supposed to play Meepo? Having clones that die to everything so quickly because they don't share your items seems like more of a burden than an advantage.

So many heroes can shut you down so hard and everyone just focus fires an illusion. Before I knew it I was feeding a natures prophet so hard it was embarrassing. He just teleports, traps a clone focuses it down and Im dead. What should I be doing and what items should I be getting?


http://www.gosugamers.net/dota/thread.php?id=777818 - it's all in there, no need to add more to that link.

Enjoy. =)


thanks that helps a lot!

anyone got replays of Meepo being used right?

go look up some old dota1 wodota top 10s
theres a lot to go through but meepos come out occasionally
besides, its worth watching as there may be other little things you could learn, although it may be dota1
you wont find any pro vids because meepo is hardly used in competitive games

Yes.
Eye of Skadi is a Unique Attack Modifier, and does not stack with other Unique Attack Modifiers. Eye of Skadi can be combined with a lifesteal Unique Attack Modifier.

Notes:
Despite the in-game description, Skadi stacks with lifesteal on melee heroes as well as on ranged heroes.

Reposition and try to stay alive until the silence ends and I can get my shit off. If I can rightclick something and have some sort of effect, then I guess I will, but generally I want to stay mostly alive until I can unload everything.

Usually you hit people or run away. (You hit when you have a chance of winning and run if you don´t have a chance to win the fight)
Other than that you use activatable items if you have them. Force staff, Hex etc.

Can you specify the question, the way you worded it it doesn´t have any interesting answer.

Well, It was a 5v5 teamfight at mid and my team got 3-4 man silenced(i was at about 250 mana as visage, somehow noone wanted mid so i got it lol) Now we pretty much lost the teamfight but I could do absolutly nothing except use a soul assumption (after we got wiped) and mek on my team.

Edit: My mana isnt important since I couldnt use my skills anyway so you can just ignore that lol.

Assuming you had your gargoyle thingies out, you could have also micro´d them and used their landing skill which stuns in an area.
Iirc that skill can´t be silenced and is the second best thing to use in a teamfight besides hitting enemies with your skills.

In general you should try to not stand in a bulk with 4 guys of your team, it makes you weak against area skills(like for example silence). It is a good habit to position yourself a certain distance away from the next hero to avoid area effect(so that a small aoe can fit between you without hitting both).
The small delay in walking towards the front of the battle is really small and much better than everyone in your team getting stunned by 1 skill.
TL;DR position yourself always as if before a battle or you start any battle with disdvantage. It´s ok to stand in groups of 2 when all 5 are together, but it´s not ok to stand in a group of 4 as that´s just stupid.

I am very curious...

How EXACTLY do you know when you are shafted into the low priority matchmaking pool?

Is there any indication? Or do you just search longer?

Lol. Is this for real? That's kinda cool. In general, does anybody know how the matchmaking works? In the beginning I seemed to be getting matched a LOT into matches where someone would just disconnect at the start and it'd be 5v4 (or 3) the entire game. Now that seems to happen a lot less: luck? Or a change in my matchmaking ranking?

Also, out of curiosity, how do you get out of low priority matchmaking if those dread red letters ever show up? Is it a time-based punishment?

Lane control. You can deny your enemy alot more and its easier to keep the lane more static outside your tower.
