he said hes from hong kong and that had to be where he was located because we were playing on the chinese ladder which would lag tremendously if he was overseas.

Who are the best QOP players? I wanna study some replays

Maelk from team MYM, a safe but efficient QoP Player.
Any player from VP when they run QoP. [Vigoss, arguably best player utilizes necrobook QoP. Style I like to play]
Loda, Kwom, Akke from team SK when they play QoP. Loda's shadowfiend is most known/best though.

Visgoss got manhandled by eMg's Pugna/SK lane though, a hard lane cause stats-SK and Pugna's damage scales quicker than QoP's. Still somehow managed to make Book3 by like 35.

Eddie's a Canadian at Waterloo, unless hes studying abroad this semester. His SF is also better than most players.

Yeah, where can you get good DotA replays? The replays I find at dota-allstars.com are pretty terrible.

Use their forums, under the competitive dota section the mods post complete replays (as long as there was no reload) of matches played for all the majors.

Technically you can use it to escape, but you already have Burrowstrike anyways so if you can't BS -> Blink then you deserve to die XPPPPPP

Part of what made SK so good was his ability to escape with both dagger + burrow when one or the other wasn't enough.
I recall when chasing SK a lot that both helped SK out a tonne.
Shrug, the nerf hurts every and all heros who regularly get a dagger.

True, but I think that was the point of the nerf. Dagger was too much of a staple item, most high level replays I've watched pretty much every hero got a dagger.
That said I think the nerf was a bit too much, 3 seconds is too long. Maybe they could go to 2 or 1 second and increase the mana cost. Not sure what to do with the pricing though.

well when u think about it, u can initiate at best every 3-4 minutes and I at least used dagger at least once every minute(more often if being chased), so I would say that I at least used it for defense at least as much as for offense. the way it is now it has close to no defensive value, which was actually the reason why most int heroes took it in the first place- so they can nuke and escape.
the way i see it icefrog wanted to give carriers a little edge since at pro level we mostly see teams consisting of 2-3 int ,1-2 str and 1 agi heroes and the game is seldom decided on carriers since the 5v5 battle are like nuke nuke nuke..

btw sk`s burrowstrike has like 1 second animation adding the fact that u have to accelerate after that makes it hard to escape without dagger - meaning sk will be raped by pretty much any radi carrier if he tries to push a lane which was before no problem whatsoever (and ive had some experience with sk )
but lets wait and see how the pros react...since in pro games pretty much everybody has dagger

edit:
wow i used "as least" 4 times in the first sentence...

Actually the dagger being nerfed favours SK HORRIBLY. The reason sk nowadays isnt a 1st pick nor a ban , is because the way dota is played these days is so different. With the russian Revolution of Vp that involves getting dagger with all the non blink heroes , Sk has turned into a mediocre pick (no bad , just not what it used to be). IF you see Virtus pro play against sk they just get 5 daggers and its almost impossible to cast a good ulti.

Maelk from Mym "a safe but efficient qop" you kidding me? maelk with vigoss are the 2 best qop users in the planet. And sk pugna is a terrible lane. Sk on lane isnt imba until level 5 where he gets the larger stun and therefor stunning both of the players is easier. But in the 1st level , he is easy harrasable , its almost impossible to stun both of them unless they suck and when he stuns he is very vulnerable since he ends beside the 2 opponents.

No I'm not kidding you.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but from the reps I've seen of Maelk playing QoP he does the following:
5 branch 4 tango.
Plays passive/reactionary in lane. Maybe ganks depending on lane/rune control.
Rapes late game from farm.

I already said Vigoss is arguably the best player overall so no disagreement there.
SK/Pugna is not that good of a lane, but like Judicator said in one replay he did get owned by that lane combination. A necro 3 by 30 is good, but usually you shoot for -25.
