Whats the best way to hotkey/control/keep track of your meepos? Do you mostly keep them together or separate? | ||

I'm a StarCraft guy so pretty handy with hotkeys and multitasking and all, but still had trouble keeping them in control (mostly because I can't tell which is which). Whats the best way to hotkey/control/keep track of your meepos? Do you mostly keep them together or separate? I'm at ~150 games on Meepo, tho I'm definitely not awesome with him. Yes it's freaking hard - I still panic like an idiot in fights sometimes and just throw nets everywhere and flee like a pussy  . I use Group 1 for Meepo 1 only, 2 for all the rest, then 3, 4, 5 for Meepo 3, 4 and 5 respectively. (So yes, I can't select no2 by himself through hotkeys). I usually farm woods with the secondaries, while I being on a lane with the primary. I use the portaits in the top left to see what Meepo I should select through my hotkeys. I try to click on Meepos as little as possible due to the selection system is just so much worse than sc2 that I haven't become friends with it yet.You can go quite far just with two hotkeys I'd say. One for the primary and the rest for the secondaries, and then just treat all secondaries as one unit. I did that in the beginning. Edit: Like Firebolt said tho, should probably move this discussion overe here: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/dota-2-strategy/397778-hero-meepo | ||

There is a Meepo thread (I'm on my phone so can't link to it easily) that has some discussion about how people hotkey their clones etc. You can find it using the hero index sticky. | ||

Probably really situational but has anyone actually built bkb on naix in a real game? | ||

There are definitely situations where it is right though. Late-Late game, heroes like tinker that always have hex/lazer and can ghost sceptre a lot make BKB much more attractive since you can't really kill them in rage and you have to be magic immune to interact with them. However, just having an abyssal is often just as good. | ||

"Interact with them"  just got a really funny picture in my head of naix with a top hat and with a monocle having a friendly chat with tinker.Thanks for the answer tho, its been bugging me. | ||

So you kite him with abilities and items untill rage runs out. Now if this is the case couldnt naix just get a bkb and pop that as rage goes out? Most of the time you probably dont have to use it but when you do your magic immune for a loooooong time since rage is very close to cooldown after bkb use. Probably really situational but has anyone actually built bkb on naix in a real game? Ye, ofc. Situation has to be very pathetic for Na'iX though, to force him to purchase bkb when he has his own 6 seconds. On March 13 2014 06:17 LuckoftheIrish wrote: The other thing is that Naix peaks in the midgame, and unless he continues to get items that help him kill people, he becomes underwhelming pretty quickly. That's especially true when he's the only carry. And if Naix isn't the only carry, there are other high-priority targets to disable, so his need for BKB is less. Wut? Peaks in the midgame? You have to play against 5 casters i guess, to say that Na'iX power peaks in midgame. He's not ultra-late dude like Sven, but he's beast in late game if you're not building useless shit like S&Y. And you're not drafting Na'iX alone without any disables in team so usually he doesn't need to chase targets forever if everything is executed properly. | ||

And if initiation is good and Na'iX has abyssal, even 10 blinks won't help. And don't forget, he won't be alone in late game as well, even if he got 3 supports and Puck/Storm in team. | ||

I've already lost almost 400 MMR from where I had always been ever since Solo Ranked was introduced, and I can't seem to win any more. However, I don't feel it's because I play worse than before. In fact, I'm quite happy with my performance as I'm almost always one of the best players in the game. Is there a second, hidden rating in addition to MMR that would give me particularly weak teammates in order to balance my higher hidden skill rating? Or have I just gotten worse or unlucky? Classic matchmaking. Nothing new. Just stay strong or drop game for a few days or weeks. Then come back stronger. Of course, it's counted if you're close to 4k at least. Behind it i'm scared to imagine what is happening there. | ||
