On that vein, who wins Bat vs QoP?
qop has better range (better harass), higher damage, better mobility which means safer vs bat allins and better rune control

Another pick that "counters" Batrider comes to mind is Skywrath mage. Someone I know swears on it. Just go all out on lvl 1 and 2 with arcane bolt and have silence ready when he comes too close. Similar problem as with picking OD though, you are then stuck with Skywrath mage mid, while Bat just goes jungling for 5 minutes and gets a timely blink dagger anyway. | ||

I just had a 90 minute game as prophet where I was 6 slotted at 45 but I couldn't find anyway to keep unreliable gold down. I had every item I wanted and ended with over 650 last hits but with 4000+ unreliable gold it was always uncertain if I could buyback. | ||

There's an easier way - memorize these formulas - Every time you die you lose 30*LevelOfYourHero unreliable gold, the only way to reduce this amount is with a Bloodstone - you'll lose 25 gold less for every Bloodstone charge . Not waiting until your hero respawns and paying the buyback fee (100+Level*Level*1.5+GameTime*15, rounded down to a multiplier of 50). This will take away from your reliable gold pool first. http://www.playdota.com/mechanics/Gold | ||

Having over 3000 gold will guarantee a buyback at pretty much all stages of the game. And all your cs translates into unreliable gold, so you cant really prevent it from accumulating | ||

I don't have any connection issues as I can watch twitch streams np. Is there a setting to make this problem go away, or is this the general experience with caster voices in-game client? I'm not sure if there's a fix, but it's pretty well known that the stream audio is much better than the dotatv audio. | ||

What's a good visage play consist of anyway, stunning with birds? visage single handedly wins trilanes, especially in tri vs tri situations where you can end up winning just from snowballing your trilane carry + 2 supports. with a medallion + aghs, visage also becomes a solo killing monster. also, being able to aoe stun 3 times in any place you want is pretty handy in teamfights. a good visage game involves winning your lane hard, nuking and stunning the shit out of everyone in teamfights, scouting the entire map with birds and stuff, | ||

Birds are maphack. There are a lot of subtle things about visage that make him strong so you aren't going to notice anything flashy. | ||

The summoned birds do real good damage, which alone can kill enemy supports if they are caught out far from help. He functions very well without any items, since he has reliable damage from a pretty good range. The fact that the birds have flying vision and move and stun completely independent from you adds a lot of utility to him. | ||

Hard to figure out what you mean by "keep unreliable gold down"... Spend it? But I think your question is more like, "How do I make it so that more of my gold is reliable". And well, the answer to that would be well... Kill people =\ Or buy a midas with your ridiculous richness for the sole purpose of generating reliable gold. I guess you could keep the midas on the chicken when you're not using it... | ||
