Sumail has actually killed Cty in THREE out of FOUR games by himself in the first ten minutes.



Sumail was actually really losing the QoP vs Storm match-up, and CTY would have came out ahead if he just didn't get ultra cocky. The fact that he was only like 3-4 cs behind really shows how bad Sumail was getting outclassed. The 2nd game was all Sumail's teammates getting him the advantage.


Cty makes a mistake that gives Sumail a large advantage but he still > Sumail this is the best case of why Azarkon is necessary.


What service do you provide that makes you "necessary"?

I honestly think the correct option is to ban all the heroes Sumail exels on

Aren't there more than 5 of those?

1. Storm
2. QoP
3. Ember
4. SF
5. Lesh? I think I've seen him play Lesh well at least?
6. Lina? Not actually sure how good Sumail is at Lina...
7. PA? But PA sucks this patch...

I dunno maybe it'd work.


He's played lina and dominated with it, same with leshrac.

Techies is a balanced and very beatable hero, it's just that Techies fundamentally changes the way is totally played, and really is the only hero in the game that does this. When he's on losing teams, he just forces opponents into long drawn out games, and when he's winning he suffocates opponents movement on the map, but doesn't offer much in pushes. I mean he's balanced, can be beaten, it's just that he is the absolute anti-thesis of fun.


wroooooooooooooooooooooooong wisp + NP change the base game mechanics just as much except teams have 20 times more experience playing against them. playing against techies in 10 years will be much more developed and less gimicky.


Not just wisp and NP. You could say that DK fundamentally changes the flow of the game because for the first 15/20 mins the game is entirely played around his ult CD. You could sya the same about a lot of others as well.

except he does offer a lot in pushes

other than that, agreed with everything else



He sorta does in that he has good AoE and can clear mines if he is allowed to set things up, but he's almost useless in most fast paced fights.


Why would he be in a face paced fight? He just claims a lane. Are you going to go there and waste time?

"When Techies is in the game, you're just not allowed to play Dota."
Mad knows what's up.
Heaven's Halberd is the most criminally underbought item in Dota. Together we can stop this.
