| Does Chen's ultimate deserve a buff or rework Posted: 15 Jul 2017 06:32 AM PDT This ability was really strong when death balling was more popular, and rightfully deserved to be nerfed. But many other changes to death balling have occurred since then, and it seems like Hand of God didn't catch up with all of the other abilities as the pace of game play changed. I might understand if there was no comparable ability, but the fact that Howl exists shows how negligible Hand of God's impact is. I enjoy the ability, since it fits Chen theme and gameplay well, and it offers interesting game play with cross the map saves. But the ability feels like it is in a corner of where you can only change the cool down, or amount healed with the ability, and the Aghs slot is already taken for another skill. I don't suggest this as balance for Chen, and I don't think he is particularly strong or weak. But to see how the ability could be changed to open up design space, while catching the ability with the current game. [link] [comments]  |
| Dear supporters and mid players, stop planting observer wards in front of my nose Posted: 15 Jul 2017 03:13 PM PDT Played some 2k avg games with a friend the past couple of days and in literally 10 games in a row I had the opponent mid player or an opponent supporter running to my uphill when the first creep wave meets mid and placing a ward without giving a shit that I could actually see that they ward and where they ward. 4 years ago when you still had to pay 200g for a pair of sentries and didn't get anything from dewarding I wouldn't have bothered and these wards you place would be there all the time, but it's 2017 and you're literally giving me 50 gold and 50 xp because all I do is buying a sentry for 100 gold and instead of eating my iron branch with a tango (50 gold) I can eat that observer, get 100 gold back and 50xp to that and I didn't even have to use my iron branch for the double regen. Go into a private lobby and check out where you yourself have vision when you play on radiant/dire. Walk mid to the highground and check again where a player has vision. Keep that in mind and don't place obvious observer wards. Hint: Even if nobody is on the mid lane yet, the tower there gives vision over a part of my highground. Here you can see this with and without a hero on the lane for radiant: http://i.imgur.com/2amy1qN.jpg Homework: do this for dire side [link] [comments]  |
| What exactly does it mean when a hero "scales well into late game"? Posted: 15 Jul 2017 12:11 PM PDT wouldnt a hero's lategame performance greatly depend on the lineup of both teams? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 15 Jul 2017 10:26 AM PDT Been playing some Meepo lately and having a real fun time on him. I preform well if I'm not hard countered, but that's the issue. He's so easy to counter and I'm not Abed. Im a random 3k scrub. He has so many counters as well that even if I last pick on my team, if the opposing team has final pick of the game any position can find a hard counter to me (Wyvrn, Sven, Void, etc.) What can I do to start dealing with his counters? I know that perfect Meepo games are hard to come by since he's so easy to counter, but I need to learn how to play around that. [link] [comments]  |
| Offlane Riki with gem and eul. Zero detection build. New meta. Posted: 15 Jul 2017 03:29 PM PDT I played Riki and every time I die because someone haves sentry. In another game I bought quelling blade as a starting item then i tried to get gem of true sight as fast as possible. Then I can see and destroy sentries using chop ability. But this time I die because they bought dust. Now I start with quelling blade plus healing salve and I go offlane. I don't hit any creep and enemy heroes but I'm using blink strike to kill low hp ranged creeps (90 exp for ranged creep, and 40 exp for melee creep). After gem I'm building Eul's scepter to dispel dust effect and try to help in ganks. Now enemies can't even detect me. They can only buy another gem or necronomicon level 3 to see me. Everybody says Slardar and Bounty counters Riki. In my previous match Bounty was useless and my team kills him fast with my gem. It was funny when Bounty comes in invisible to us and he die in about 3 seconds. Eul not only gives to Riki dispel but intelligence and movement speed. After receiving Eul i go Midas for exp (18 min with midas), tranquil boots then some support items like Vladmir Good match ends with 750 XPM and 430 GPM (my best with Void chrono combo). What do u think about this build? Someone calls my build dirty, but Riki likes play dirty, so why not? [link] [comments]  |
| Have you ever experienced a 'flipped switch'? Posted: 15 Jul 2017 01:46 AM PDT It's like, everything was going good in all of your games. Then one day, you start losing. A lot. You tried everything, being the carry, being the support, played the best you can but you just can't win. And you end up with a losing streak. Have you ever experienced this kind of thing? If you have, what's your best way of handling it? [link] [comments]  |
| Why do raxes feel less valuable now? Posted: 15 Jul 2017 06:09 AM PDT I remember playing back in 2013 when if you took 2 raxes you pretty much 95% won. These days in 7.06 feels like teams don't give a shit if they lose rax, the game just keeps going. What changed? [link] [comments]  |
| What hero would you choose if you are uncertain? Posted: 15 Jul 2017 02:03 PM PDT I always tend to choose Silencer when Im not sure as I think he can play well vs most heroes. Any tips when in this situation? (Im 2.6k so most of the time communication is absent) [link] [comments]  |
| Can anyone give their opinions on this game based on Items, Skill level order, and Draft? Posted: 15 Jul 2017 05:58 AM PDT |
| Posted: 15 Jul 2017 12:54 AM PDT I've been trying out maelstrom/mjollnir on OD as a second main item (with hurricane pike being the first) and it has worked well. It gives OD attack speed, AoE attack and accelerated farming. Thoughts? [link] [comments]  |
