Winning with KOTL Cancer lancer and batrider.... Even if I was a fan, i would never root for that.

That win was hardly because of kotl/pl though.

Well KOTL + PL = free win on agressive tri. + kotl+pl is the most antifun combo there is in the game.

fucking KOTL chakras PL and PL just nonstop keeps throwing his nuke. ez

its far from a free win, there are much stronger trilanes (but not that DK lane..)


When you firsts pick Spectre Chen and the other team gets a bat, there aren't many strong lanes you can do.

Why so many people hate the game out of KotL+PL+Batrider picks from Allinace? If anything then DK should blame themselves for being overconfident and revealing their hand too soon with Spectre FP. Keep in mind that these players play to win, and they will use any legitimate trick they have no matter how frowned upon they might be to achieve it.

I suggest people who are still mad about KotL PL read this: http://www.sirlin.net/ptw-book/intermediates-guide.html



Has nothing to do with playing to win. Has more to do with the fact that E-sports hinges on having viewers, and Kotl/Pl/Batrider comps are completely boring to watch and simply boring.

That's why you are NaVi fan.

Exactly. Entertainment is key to enjoying a game. Bomber does the same in SC2. He entertains.


Weird way to write Bomber disappoints.

Oh how I feel bad for you peasants who can't enjoy the beauty that is Bomber.

It's not necessary good to feel happy when a player disappoints you

Yango, didn't you say Naga song doesn't work properly against Spectre illusions?

He said it's not supposed to.


so does that mean song shouldn't be "stunning" the haunt illusions or?

Correct, they should still be able to attack (though IIRC they are supposed to be rooted).

What do you mean they aren't supposed to? Are you simply saying it worked differently in dota 1 or do you have some other information on it?


I'm saying that when Naga sleeps Haunt illusions in DotA 1, they are still able to attack. I think they might still be rooted in place, but I don't remember.

Fair enough. Sorry if I'm nitpicking, I just don't think "supposed" is the right word to use then. Unless its actually in the known bugs list, you can mostly rely on the dota 2 state to be how it's supposed to be.

It IS in the known bugs list.

The armlet thing was in the known bugs list and it ended up being declared a bug in Dota 1, so even then it's not exactly guaranteed.

DotA and LoL are team games, you need a minimum of social skills that starcraft players lack.

I think personality / social skills play a big role, teamgame seems to help a lot.

IceFrog just just remove Blinkdagger for Bat, like it's for Pudge and VS. Suddenly: balanced hero.

I think this might actually be a goood choice, if it was bad enough to be disallowed on Pudge and VS

Reminder that Batrider could not exploit his skill and blink dagger to put allied heroes on cliffs.

Not really seeing how it's that much different

it wasn't removed from pudge/venge because it was "too good". It was removed because it was abusable as described above

Link to that post?


Is it that hard for people to trust people who've been playing the game that long?

As long as they don't wanna explain more detailed...

I already explained this.

Pudge and VS were restricted from buying Blink Dagger in DotA 1 because it could be used to grief teammates. You can blink onto a cliff, hook an ally, blink off, and then un-share the courier. They can't buy a new courier to activate, and they can't send themselves a TP so they are stuck there for the rest of the game.

This is different from the case of many of the heroes that can put ENEMIES on high ground. And for the record, most movement abilities like Telekinesis, Blinding Light, or even Force Staff in DotA 1 actually are incapable of pushing people onto impassable terrain--that they do in DotA 2 is a known BUG that is unfixed because outside a few obvious spots' it's really hard to catch every possible way someone could be pushed onto inaccessible terrain. So you shouldn't be saying "Rubick/KotL/etc. can put people up there anyway" because they aren't supposed to be able to.

Sorry, I must've misunderstood everything from the first place. I thought we was only talking about greifing enemies
