I sometimes wish I pursued casting instead of going to get my doctorate because I'd blow everyone but Kobe and Jatt out of the water. yeah its true kobe is the best because hes a lot more charismatic tho joe miller is 3rd but he was a beast in quake you shoulda kept casting, dat soothing voice what, 5hit used to cast? o.o I DIDNT KNOW do you have any links/VoDs?

ive never thought, shit, singed is using a tactic than lets him free farm but also gives us free kills, we're screwed
fucking singed freefarms all day against almost every champ anyway, and the best result you can get is to kill him early a few times before he starts doing that so the only difference is he gets a bit more cs early but dies more Next time I pick Jax only to end up against Singed I'll gladly welcome him doing that. Vs a champ that singed can be even with or beat pre6 he doesn't need to proxy farm. I think this strategy is best used when counter picked vs say vlad, or jayce. Well that's the whole point, like Ezreal(s) going Tear first and persisting in their "blue build" even when behind.

real counter to suicide singed is sending the feeder on your team to feed him

dunno, remember him doing some and also watching his stream where his commentating on shit was more like a some dude telling you a story rather than an annoying nagging voice in the back of your ear when you're trying to do shit

Maybe some of the casters mutter it in their feverish nightmares.

I still remember one day I was watching his stream and imaqtpie added him saying that he liked what he was doing and was impressed.

It wasn't accurate anyways, it didn't count off-screen wardkills.

So we were talking about patch cycles. Just read the new DotA patch.
Good gravy that is a bajillion changes. It's like a brand new game hahaha. Blows my mind. Granted that's probably about 3-4 LoL patches, just all in one. Overwhelming to say the least.

Riot, hire this man.
But that got me thinking. If you could create any champion using other champion moves, what would it be? All the abilities must be the EXACT same as they are now.

I thought that was funny myself, especially in comparison to LoL.
But more hilarious than that to me is like: "Oh, you wanna catch up with DotA, do you Valve? NO WAI."

The hero changes aren't even that big. The captains mode change and ward changes ! Also valve most likely has changes in place for new update. Sure the new heroes wont' be but that's only "new" content.

Icefrog is balancing DotA, isn't he? So Valve knows what's going in the patches even before they're out anyway.

Exactly, but the team that's working on Dota 2 can't keep up with all the changes Icefrog is making to Dota 1 lol. It's just funny because they were getting "close-ish" to parity and then Icefrog goes and drops this.

Haha. I know. I just imagine this room of disgruntled designers/programmers who don't have much contact with the rest of the company sitting in a room and then get the email reading "DotA 6.78 released!" and go "OH FUCK WE WERE SO CLOSE TO FINISHED! T_T"
