qop/bb got the lich/pugna treatment and sven got the silencer treatment. really though those 3 popular heroes i can see only now as situational utility heroes, bkb sven against heavy caster support and qop for open ended mid game strategies or on follow up duty to clear support mid game after a Mag or SF, BB well BB is now dead considering you have SkelKing and Cent. DK and Doom might see more play now, DK will actually be able to farm and Aghan's on Doom isn't exactly hard. sand king nerf was unexpected, theres really no reason to nerf the armor of a spell based str hero, one that dies alot at that already, another -6% to his ehp the bm nerf is nice so you don't have to autoban his ass every game and i bet the majority of the dota community will have no idea why armlet was nerfed, two words Skeleton King. either way the best part of this version is the improved obs mode, which is infinitely better for competitive dota so you can actually properly shoutcast | ||

icefrog needs to change more heroes' skill sets to accommodate a faster-paced game... i mean, he can always revert back to the prior model if they become too imba o__O | ||

I really do hate this 75mp mana regen on bottle. It really makes heroes like Pudge shit in 6.51, and probably shit again in 6.52. I need to use 2 charges of bottle for Pudge to get enough mp back for another hook. Dam sucky bottle. Really need the buff on mp regen on bottle. On 6.51 i have been making Linkens on Pudge, quite effective lol.I could not believe SandKing was nerfed again. I mean, he has the worst STR gain of any str hero in DotA, He is so fragile as it is, and more armour has been reduced of him. Crazy! | ||

i didn't know ursa had a fun name.. what is it? nvm, it's apparently Fuzzy Wuzzy or Ulfsaar. I always thought that Fuzzy Wuzzy was the standard name. Never seen Ulfsaar before O_o edit: On April 30 2008 18:36 Chewits wrote: I could not believe SandKing was nerfed again.

Crazy! to be fair, sk has a better str gain than bb.  puck's fun name seems to be ... "Puck!" how original clink's is "Clinkz Eastwood" ha. that one's good took 2 seconds to figure out with -noherolimit. lol | ||

http://z13.invisionfree.com/IHL_Euro/index.php?showtopic=2538 That's the website for IHCS. I've kinda already outlined how it works before somewhere in these dota threads but I can't find it. Anyway there's two divisions, IHCS2 and IHCS1. IHCS2 is the larger and more active division. It is filled with players that are considered ' good ' on the international scale but not top tier aka the top team members. But it is not completely elite, there are some dumbasses that got in. I'd say around 1/15 people in IHCS2 are pretty bad. IHCS1 is simply elite, it's full of only members of teams like VP, MYM, TeamQ, x6, WG, SP, SK, etc. However, IHCS1 players play a lot in IHCS2 games because division 2 is more active, and sometimes friends of theirs aren't able to get into IHCS1. It's very, VERY difficult to get into IHCS1, if you even have to ask don't even bother. IHCS2 requires you filling out an application at the link I provided giving personal information. Competitive dota if you've played any, familiarity with irc, vent and ggc. Those are the 3 programs you must use to play IHCS. You must be able to provide competitive replay games that show your skill. It cannot be TDA, it can only be from other leagues or against teams of known skill. You may also be asked to solo lane against a ' tester ' who is usually a very good player, not extremely elite, but pretty damn good. You must also be very active in IHCS, if you do not play at least 2 games a week or something you pretty much decay in XP and must reapply all over again. You build experience on your account by playing games. It's like a ladder, the better players you take down the more points you get. In my first game, which was a RIDICULOUS replay that I posted, I played with negi and some other semi-knowns and we were down like 1-22 in the first 20 minutes against a team of XSK_Fanatic and some other really good guys. But we ended up winning and I only got like 30 points. It's really hard to get high on the IHCS ladder. Vent is REQUIRED even if you don't have a mic, you must sit in with your team. There's no fucking around either, ANYONE can censure you, which pretty much means that they think you sucked or did something bad, and with enough censures, mods look at your play and replays and decide if you're fit or not for IHCS anymore. Games are usually captain games, were two semi-known players will challenge each other, and people will sign up. If you aren't known or new, it's really fucking hard to get into a captain game. It took me 3 days after getting vouched to finally get into one. Since everyone's stats show up in IRC and I was 0-0-0 it was risky for captains to pick me. The most popular game mode is kinda like -rd except for the bot gives out a pool of heroes and the captains pick the heroes. You WILL be assigned a hero and YOU will be expected to play your role perfectly if you're playing with any semi-known players. If you play thd or pugna and you don't buy wards, you WILL get censured and you might as well say goodbye to IHCS. The hardest part though, if you are a SKILLED player is getting vouched. So many people try to get into IHCS and it's like TLnet in the sense that the mods can do whatever they feel like. They don't have to look at your application. It helps to have people vouch for your skill in your thread or !support you. It took me about a month of work of getting my name out to decent players/teams and getting enough recent competitive replays to get into IHCS. I had players from the old trNs, vTs, gL vouch for me but even that was almost not enough because those are American teams, which at that time were not seen as extremely skilled. Remember, you're playing with the big boys of dota pretty much. Btw the majority of those teams had members already in IHCS. You need 3 vouchers to support you, and only 3 vouchers. There's a lot of different categories of admins over there. My 3 vouchers were Hawwk, PenguinQ, and ...hmm shit I forgot and the search function is down right now on the IHCS forum. Anyway, point is it's hard to play and get in but it's worth it if you want the best in dota and are looking to get known and be competitive. I eventually quit playing there because it was mostly europeans and wasn't busy when I was on, and I didn't like playing with strangers even if they were really really good. I was worried about making my team better at that time. No regrets though, IHCS is really awesome. | ||
