Refraction got nerfed though (these level 1 numbers), so is it because of Metamorphosis? Hasn't that spell been that way for God knows how long, with the crazy strong early game tower pushing?

Wait, 19k? Damn, the Viktor rework made me post way more than necessary.

If anyone was wondering - you play new Viktor the exact same way you used to.

edit: Alaric 19k into my 11k

I played a game as Abaddon where my TB treated me like cheese. I had gotten aghs so he would just sunder me when he got low and my ult healed me back to full while he took damage. That was a silly game.

It's mostly meta interaction with illusions, combined with good base stats (2.5 base hp regen), and insane mid/lategame scaling that works in a way in which the hero's curve is just a bit better than most.
When in doubt, just believe in yourself and press buttons

I dunno it seemed like the "fuck your numbers, it's all shitty and about utility/QoL for him anyway" argument worked well.

My sample size of 1 game is very telling though. (I don't count the first game cuz I was dicking around and building stupid things + maxing Q). I won't get too much into it, but I also refuse to venture into GD to discuss it.

His E is still very good, even with the delayed augment damage. Instant shield on Q is awesome, and the AA buff is sweet. Augmented Q is decent, but I would probably leave it for last. Augmented W is really nice, and I think I would want it mid game over augment Q.

Now, I will say that I always played Viktor in S2 fashion, so when I say "play him the way you always would", I mean "play him the way I always did".

Give me good ol' fashioned CIS dota any day.

I have the same thoughts

I'm starting to love playing League a lot right now, but I still can't get into enjoying watching it competitively as I do with Dota 2. I do like watching it though, but something it's just zzzz....

Try to just watch the minimap and observe the map movement. Could be more interesting if you are looking to improve your own play.

That's what I try to look at to, and predict what teams are trying to set up for a couple minutes in advance. Unless it's EU, then they just sit in their base for 50 minutes, until someone wins.

The only game I watched and did not play at the same time was BW and when wave streams.

TB being in a perpetual state of rework/rebalance have kept him out of CM forever. Sure he stomped pubs(and got a nerf), but balance concerns never shine as bright as they do when a hero is actually being drafted in competitive games, by professional players with a plan to exploit those balance concerns.

I said #1 world, not #17 in Idaho.

Actually, what would you say are the really backwater states? To me the entire southern half of the U.S. except Texas, California and Florida seem like the boonies. I assume Idaho is in there.

edit: ok I was a little off with Idaho's positioning.

You're way off. The most boonie states are the big ones in the Middle (east to west) and North. Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, The Dakotas, Nebraska. Those are your boonie states. The Southern states are actually quite nice and relatively populous compared to places like Nebraska.

There's 4 regions - East Coast, West Coast, Texas (only included because of DFW and Austin areas), and then the rest of the crap in the middle.
