AM is fucking hard to kill, think of all the heroes that are on carry, think about how all of them have stupidly good outs. His one weakness can be picked around and usually picked into by the opposing team, that is he needs solid supports to be effective.
It depends on the team and what is going on in the IHLs these players all play in, AM was picked a few times and was found to be very successful because surprisingly he had a good resilience to ganks and push line ups.
He's not picked early because well, there's no point, you want to nuts support more often than not except for a few carries, namely that OP Spectre.
What you see in DotaCash is about a month behind the competitive meta, and in some instances a full year.

And I missed all of those things because I was away for intermittent amounts of time, except for the special bonus.
Looks like GROUTYLESSTLIHs could be more successful in the future than GroutyIHs...
I had a great day of HoN too: highlights: Doombringer/riftshards level 4 as dr. repulsor 15-0 soul reaper with level 5 codex clutch play with my blacksmith and corrupted disciple vs. warbeast
Using server instability to your advantage! After getting every creep in the first two waves in mid denied or me missing the last hit on Soulstealer a teammate says the server is laggy and the other team agrees to remake.
But seriously is anyone getting constant lag in games? Not sure if its servers with too much load but its not uncommon to have to remake 1 in 3/4 games as half of the people cant play.
Played with XoYnoZnu(...?) and hyddae yesterday, it was good times. X raped faces with predator & built hellflower just for the other teams antimage, our orange picked gladiator and went 0-10, finishing phase boots at an impressive 20 minute mark. Still managed to win somehow, but good lord. We have 4 guys with 1800+, and the single guy who is at like fuckin 1630 mmr has to pick gladiator(every time he died he was like "see u in late", lol)

Yeah, I've experienced a lot of laggy servers. Not sure if it's just the servers themselves are bad, or the locations that TMM puts us in are unfavourable (I've noticed the game being on Sweden servers, and I'm UK).

Well, that shouldn't be an issue. WoW has great servers and they are all placed in Sweden (for EU that is). We have the best internet in Europe here, so unless HoN servers are handled by some crappy shady company, it shouldn't be any issue.
Might just be the classic deal with F2P transitions: Tons and tons of new players putting heavy load on the servers.

Not for English casters. You seriously are better off doing what I usually do when I watch replays, asking myself if my dumbass self would have done what the pros did in that particular situation.
