I often am in a situation where we will have rax down in one lane, but still end up losing because they other team had a better carry/dragged it out too long and we were unable to maintain the lead.
How are we supposed to maintain the lead? Is it not possible in some lineups where the other team has a super hardcore lategame carry ? Such as in push lineups (Rhasta, Enigma, etc.) the heroes get a huge lead early/mid game because of tower pushing really fast, but is it still possible to win if you haven't won by the time it hits lategame because the other team might all have hood or like their carry might be farmed and the push lineup has no real carry

Play smart, make use of really offensive wards and either keep farming (you should have huge map control if you have a lane down with extra gold) safely to farm up good disable items, or make a lot of pressure, via farming in their woods and ganking that lane, ganking people who are solo/out of position. You can keep pressure up on multiple lanes (say you have btm lane hellbourne raxes, push mid and top equally, force them to split up and keep your team between the 2 lanes to be able to quickly pick someone off then push in for the tower). Other times you just need to know if they can even contest you at the tower. There are times you can push in to their base and they literally can't do anything about it.

Well it's a timing issue. Offensive warding assisted by aggressive counter-warding to keep them blind. Time your pushes so they at least have to defend another lane if they win a team fight. Aim for sheeps and aim for gibs, you have to at the very least trade supports. More importantly, you have to keep their carries honest with buyback money. You have to force buybacks and you have to keep them off of Rosh.

Otherwise you just missed your timing and really don't have a chance to win. Also, your lane needs to be pushed at around 30 mins realistically.
Get it by your hands...

Misery interview
http://www.mymym.com/en/news/19594.html

There were some controversies in this event notably with some rules changes (DTS vs EHOME). What's your opinion on the subject?

MYM|MiSeRy: My opinion is just that EHOME cries too much, even I couldn't have cried this hard.


I lol'd.

So like lets say we get mid rax, then we back cause they all respawned. Then the options for the team are to heal up and go rosh, or immediately push another lane? I feel like a lot of times after 1 rax goes down my team just goes turtle mode, jungling and shit to get our items... What you're saying is that it is wrong and the team should just keep maintaining map control/pressure?


and just played some guy in team match making (his name is teamcarry`) from thergs clan (soviet russian xaxaxaxa or something) and got rocked :[[[[[[[

I would say depends on how farmed the team (mostly concerned about carries) are, and who your carries are and what their carries are. If you are able to push another lane, and you have the carry disadvantage (in terms of scaling capability), then you push. If you are able to push another lane, have the carry advantage, and your team is more farmed then they are, push another lane; if you have the carry advantage, and your team isn't farmed, take the time to farm.

The rule of thumb is after pushing 1 rax go and farm like crazy! And your teams carry should carry aegis before pushing next rax. Also, your teams tank should have cuirass by now. Just remember not to focus on their teams tank during the fight and always win atleast another teamfight before pushing the next rax. Overzealous rax pushing has cost me many a game. GL HF. Which room in Garena do you play on?

to those who it may concern: if you dont know exactly what you are talking about when giving advice, not giving it is usually the more helpful option.

Alventenie and Blyadischa already said most that can be said, if you want more (good) advice i suggest you post some replays.

smoke of deceit= useless river wards or = more sentry wards?
medallion looks like a ganker item for VS

Caustic Finale buff duration from 0.25 to 2 seconds T.T

looks like a chaser/ganker type patch. The Ms and As boost from jango and ward avoidance from smoke of deceit.

He didnt do anything spectacular, he could of easily not ran into panda and just gotten away. Probably coulda killed ES faster too. For a #1 play it just seemed lackluster.

The entire thing was interesting because he had just sold items to specifically get dagger/tp, then fought his way out of a gank at secretshop to use both items to get away.
The number you have dialed is out of porkchops.

Tuskarr imba as shit and phoenix I've only played once but just look at his stats.. his skills don't have great synergy (+ hella long cd) but they're above average which makes him semi-imba at least.

Icefrog <3

And yes, the new heroes are most likely pretty imba. Tuskar looks like a completly mad ganger and WALRUS PUNCH is probably the best thing ever. I laughed so hard when i made my first kill with it...

WALRUS PUNCH! 322!

And Phonix looks nice and strong too. It's good that they're not yet in comp. play. They most likely need some tweaking.

But really the important thing to look at are the items.

Smoke of Deceit

Yes! Best. Thing. Ever. Fear the Smoke, ricefarmers! Who cares if you warded, finally there is some threat even in cm-games that you STILL CAN GET GANGED. I feel the concept is absolutely brilliant and why IceFrog is the guy who does best. If this doesn't shake up the competetive scene i don't know what could. Medusas and SFs of this world, hide yourself!

Same thing goes for the courage thingy. -6 armor is MASSIVE in early game. It means negative armor for almost anyone and will make killing beautifully easy but also countering equally viable = more action.

Sick load screen as well.

Nice christmas present.

Anyone up for owning up Garena in euro now? I'm drunk and feel like trashing around Garena noobs.

The Icefrog fanboyism is astounding...

You guys realize that he has a TEAM of people that come up with ideas/refine mechanics/change balance for him, and he just codes everything... right?
