Can you toss to self with Tiny in DotA 2 to ignore Linken's or not?

mushi farm is insane while ehome is distracted by yamateh

Only at this tournament though, which has basically the top 3 duos in Dota 2. I would easily put them above casters like Purge or Sheever.

Also there isnt really anyone who can match the level that 820/2009/ZSMJ/YaphetS got to. Not yet at least.

Orange has got this!!!
Lol, MY vs SG again....

I actually like these commentators more than Toby now. Yeah he's amazing at yelling during team fights but his cringes worthy moments have been happening more often it seems like.

Not yet at least. 2009/ZSMJ ?Sure-ish, but 820?Nostalgia is really strong on this one, I think X might have improved, he is just not getting to play the heroes to show it, apart from rubick that is, my point was that the team as a whole was much better than this one, not the individuals, I don't believe on dota players degrading(unless they stop playing for a while entirely) as experience is much more important than the mechanical aspect.

Cycloning on that Tiny stun was pretty sad.

man
i had no idea orange can be THIS good

Teams really need to stop being so manly and letting Morph get through. Yeah you can argue there are other carries similar to him, but none as effective. Antimage is nothing until BF or Manta. Morph is a walking god from level 1.
