So can someone explain what's the big deal with Anti mage being picked?


he's a hard carry who needs loads of farm to be super effective against all the other heroes on the other team. basically he'll farm for 30 minutes or so, and if he gets enough key items, he'll be able to basically 1v5 in the late game.

what are the ideal items to go 1v5?


ideally you want to avoid any 1v5s, never is good unless you play Spectre.

still haven't answered my question

btw which one is better Dendi or Synderen? I heard Dendi is a legend but I insta-liked that synderen guy I don't know why


Dendi is widely recognized to be the best solo mid player in the world. I think in terms of in game skill, dendi is better. but synderen is more of a captain/strategist, he picks the lanes and heroes for his team, basically looks at the big picture..

in terms of core items for the anti mage:

usually battle fury (cleave item that allows him to farm faster) first, then probably manta style (which allows him to deal more damage and faster) and then heart of tarrasque (makes him harder to die) or butterfly (another item that make him deal more damage).

i dont think so, about 10 chinese players have better mid than dendi.

It's the final game, no team wants to take any extra uncalculated risks. They're playing to their lineup's strengths =)
So games we get 6 kills in 18 mins, some we get 30 kills in 18 mins.
I do admit this game is a bit boring, but again, both teams have a lot on the line in this final game of the tournament.


Is a "boring" play-style the strongest way to play? (Like Flash from BW )


No, but this is mTw's style and Na'Vi do not have the heroes to take a lot of risks this game.

What happens when all the geodudes appear? Do you take damage if you touch them?


Yes that is Tinkers ability, Tinkers ultimate skill resets the cooldown of all his abilities so he can use the 'Geodude' spell a ton of times, when he starts sparkling that is him using a Teleport to get back to base, he can use a lot of Teleports by reseting the cooldown via his ultimate as well.

But teleport is a scroll you buy right? He still has to buy one for each time he teleports?


You can buy Boots of Travels, a much more expensive pair of boots that let's you use them as a TP. They have the CD but no gold cost, so they are great for Tinker.

Does DOTA2 have the whole 'last-hit' thing where you get bonus gold from creep when you deal the killing blow? I liked LoL, but the requirements to get good at last-hitting really turned me away. It just isn't fun to last-hit things at all imo.


Actually it is more last hitting than LoL, you last hit friendly units too in Dota 2

you'd HATE dota


Unfortunately for you, DOTA takes it to the next level with creep denials ( last hitting your own creep to prevent the opponent from getting it )

Tinkers typcially buy Boots of travel which let you teleport to anywhere on the map. Using their rearm skill they can bounce around to almost anywhere on the map very quickly since it resets cooldown

Its one of tinkers (the robots) abilities. They hurt you when you touch them, and it is mostly used to clear creep waves. His ultimate resets cooldowns (costs a lot of mana). And he always gets boots that allow you to teleport to any non-hero friendly unit on the map. Combining the boots with the ultimate he can teleport all over the map and clear creep waves

isn't that too much mana dependant? can you do that early game?

Well i just find moba boring to watch in general. SC2 is much better to spectate i think. Moba is only fun when ur playing them urself.

It does ( it's one of the key mechanic from the dota like game )
But dota has "deny" too, where you can kill your own creep to deny the last hit from the ennemy. ( so they don't get gold )

I was simplifying it, Tinker has boots(item you buy which makes you move faster) which contain a teleport on them anyway, 99% of heroes pick them up in late game however because they cost so much Tinker is the only Hero to buy them consistently

ask the Chinese, kings of the ricefest!


well recently the trend has been to tower push and end the game in 20-30 minutes though (much like a 2 base timing push )

and the ability to deny creeps to keep creep equilbrium is a HUGE part of dota, itd be so hard to farm if whenever you farm you push

Teleporting to your fountain increases your mana regen to absurd levels allowing you to spam the abilities.
