can only ban so many of dendi heroes xD pudge is already on the list.

can anyone explain to me why they do that? is dendi the best player or something?

when he gets pudge he turns super saiyan and wins ^^

So most teams auto-ban that hero? because dendi is really good with it?


It is a fun hero, and the Chinese don't play him and don't know how to counter him, or haven't practiced enough.
In Starcraft terms, Pugde would be a kind of cheese.

and dendi on pudge would be like flash executing one

I used to think pudge was a really luck based hero, but then I watched dendi FPV and I got chills even when he missed. He reads opponents and picks his moments like no other.

Dendi is like this professional pudge player. Every hook he made guaranteed will hook something!!

ah i see. i played a little bit of hon so im guessing it's the same type of hero that uses hook on hon.

Devourer is a direct port of pudge


There is some differences though, Dota's hook doesnt go through allied creep and hook range is increased per level.


Devourer's hook doesn't go through allied creeps either. But, you are correct on the hook range part.

They also made Devourer's ult give him stacking bonus hp/damage/size(so rot range) as well.

Pudge is also a LOT more powerful on LAN because of no delay. You'll see him a lot less in online tournaments where players are playing with 150-200+ ping.

Althought the team fight was flashy, the main reason why DK lost that fight was because when Burning went in for the ultimate, both Engima and Dazzle did not have TP scrolls on them, basic error they should not have made.

So the teamfight ensued without coordination of two of their key AoE heroes.

Teams will always ban heroes the other player is awesome at, but it really depends on the overall mix/draft/counters and each player has 3-4 heroes they are good with anyway so it really all depends. There's too much depth and things to consider - player's form, feel, practice w the hero, practicing the synergies w other heroes, practicing against the enemy type hero, etc. Not to mention practicing at a high level, playing against a mid-level (Queen of Pain) or Templar Assassin (TA) or Lycan versus
a high-level one, the difference is like Heaven and Hell. Not to mention practicing against the style whether its gank / push / mid-game timing attack.

It would not have mattered too much as the would have got at most puppey in a black hole and he had an aegis anyway. That split from navi as soon as they saw burning was way too good
