Of course not but the combo with distance-closing hero guarantees a 2-3 sec kill on any hero that is caught or out of position in the enemy team. Especially puck that also have a silence.

Storm Spirit, Nature's Prophet, Nyx Assassin... basically anyone with an invis or blink/teleport.

Thanks!

If he's not in a team with a distance-closing hero, does he completely drop in effectiveness? Or just make do with the blink dagger?

He can also do well when you have other heroes that can hold down enemies to the ground.

You mean the guy that fiend gripped SK during epicenter and saved the entire team? Yeah, sloppy..

One good play doesn't mean he didn't play sloppy.

Well he couldn't do much to be fair, between puck silence, xbox rage, bane sleep and zero item, life was hard.

Wait... is calling XBOCT X-BOX actually a thing?

It's been a fringe joke since TI1.

I'm cheering on MUFC from the "Viewer's Guide." I hope that tells everyone how little DotA I'm familiar with.

there should be a LR for noobies where we can compare things to sc2 and can chatter random stuff.

He's very very strong, he needs a certain setup to avoid being kited but now that progamers always go for mobility items, he's harder to counter. I think he's also a reason of weaver success, one of the few heroes who can give him a shot 1v1 before being 6 slotted.

Razor should have been laned against the naix no? He beats him in a 1v1 and if they went with Razer + SD + SK aggresive that would have facestomped him so hard..instead they let the Naix freefarm :/

Why not take advantage of the 1 nerf that stupid hero has gotten?

don't know if that trilane is any good against bane/naix with chen visits

bane enfeeble on razor would leave him with 10dmg for lasthitting lol, trade doesn't seem worth it

You also have the problem that Gondar beats Furion 1on1, and a farmed Gondar is pretty good midgame


to be honest..I would rather take my chances with a moderately farmed gondar than a free farming Lifestealer
Thy Shall Die Alone...or emm..something like that.

Yo, join the club! I'm cheering for DK, because they have Lyn on their SC2/War3 squad.
