| Lots of success with level 1 Lich frost blast. Posted: 28 Mar 2018 03:35 PM PDT Play a lot of lich as Legend player when there's a hard carry that can't protect himself in lane. Never seen anyone really do anything but take sacrifice first as Lich, which is what I do of course. But I've been experimenting with Level 1 Frost blast + Mango off the start. That gives you 4 immediate frost blasts in a row at level 1. Add in some ranged melee harass in between frost blasts and against a solo off like Doom/LC/bristle I have them immediately at 30% HP, forced to burn all if not most the regen they came with, and 0 or at best 1 creep worth of experience for them. They leave for awhile you go back to the creep line and get sacrifice and start eating. I've gotten it where their solo off is level 1 while my carry is level 3 and I'm level 2 somewhat consistently, which then gives you a lot of freedom to roam a bit and leave your carry alone and not worry. Also, with total free farm on the creeps for the first wave or two, if your carry knows how to maximize efficiency he will be able to get a good 3-4 whacks in on his own creeps and claim a quick deny or two on the first wave to make up for the lost sacrificed creep. Thoughts? [link] [comments]  |
| What CS should I be able to get in empty lobby on SF? Posted: 28 Mar 2018 04:16 PM PDT I know with AM the limit is closing in on 1k (BSJ gets 950+, Cookie 980+, I manage close enough to 750). However, I cannot find any high mmr player who tried the same thing in an empty lobby with SF. I managed 570, but I feel like I could do a lot better, just not sure how much better/where to set my sights. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 28 Mar 2018 04:00 PM PDT Is Crystalys any good on WK? I'm only 1500 mmr, but it seems to really accelerate his farming from the synergy with mortal strike. I get full skellingtons extremely fast and can push lanes and jungle as well. Is it better to just go standard armlet and blink? I usually go blink 2nd still but skip armlet and then go for AC or whatever is needed in the match. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 28 Mar 2018 05:19 PM PDT In short, i am a pos 4 / 5 player, and on most of my games, i find myself to be unable to decide when and where should i farm to get my items (for support items, etc) or exp (i roam a lot and due to my bad decision in choosing a lane to gank, i fall behind in terms of xp and gold too much) when im playing a level-reliant hero like earth spirit. The problem is, i cant go to offlane because that would mean my offlaner not having full xp, and farming in safelane or mid would also trouble my cores.. whenever i can find an empty lane to settle in and lvl up, a fight would occur somewhere else and i, usually being the hero having disables, have to come there to control the fight Do you guys have any tips on getting gold and exp as a roaming pos 4 / 5 ? i'm lost, and the new bounty runes not giving xp really hurts me in terms of level.. [edit : if you guys are willing to watch my replays, my dotabuff is here ] [link] [comments]  |
| Sand King - When to max e or max w Posted: 28 Mar 2018 07:10 PM PDT Hey guys, learning sand king right now and theres two builds I'm seeing from all the games Im watching 3-2-0 and 3-0-2, when do I choose sandstorm over caustic and in what situations are they better? Maybe caustic vs melee but there doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it... [link] [comments]  |
| Why do people buy diffusal and get the mana break talent on weaver? Posted: 28 Mar 2018 06:31 AM PDT short question. why do people buy diffusal and get the mana break talent on weaver? they dont stack together IIRC wouldn't it be more efficient to get the 35% talent if you are going for diffusal? Edit: apparently the talent and diffusal manabreak fully stack. feature or bug? it might be something that valve overlooked when adding the talent Edit2: Diffusal Tooltip [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 28 Mar 2018 09:12 AM PDT Is this a really worthwhile thing to work on? I tried doing Oracle and got 2700 (his base damage is so crap) and I can generally do 3000+ with other heroes. Just wondering if this is something I should really be putting effort into vs working on other things as I play primarily pos 5. [link] [comments]  |
| I have come to terms with my other side Posted: 28 Mar 2018 12:38 PM PDT You know, I like playing support. It's just that maybe I'm crazy but the idea of just having brown boots and a bracer, i really like the idea. No matter how many times I'm furious after we lose, I still like it. Don't get me wrong I like playing core very much. But just like Hijikata has a Toshi , I have a support split personality. So I'll play 1-2 supports. One of them is Rubick 100% <3 But the other one idk. I like dazzle but he has no stun. I'm thinking either shadow demon or vengeful spirit. Recommend me anybody except wd and shaman who have a stun. Ranged as well, I like ogre but I can't get a hang of him [link] [comments]  |
| Who's a good safelane vs spectre that doesnt require alot of skill Posted: 28 Mar 2018 03:52 PM PDT Lately I've been seeing alot of Spectre and Ive lost to her again and again. There are just some heroes you don't pick against Spectre like WK and Medusa for similar reasons and Medusa even more so since she takes forever to ramp up. She also builds diffusal and medusa and for work he just needs lvl 20 but by then you lost. I understand they way to win is pressure but I can't keep my team grouped as 5. Here's how it goes. I win lane my team tries pushing t3 when there are 2 other t2 towers we need to get. I push said t2 and I die then I get flamed. I also constantly tell them to help push but it never happens. I play mid and safelane. Obvious counters if you're mid are dp leahrac, Lina, etc but what about safelane. Who are some easy counters that don't take allot of skill to play. [link] [comments]  |
| Second Daedalus vs second Divine Rapier? Posted: 28 Mar 2018 12:03 PM PDT I was practising Ember Spirit and was wondering. If I already have 2 Daedalus and 1 Rapier, is it better to get rid of a Daedalus for a second Rapier, or to just keep the 2 Daedalus with 1 Rapier? My other items were BoTs, Linken's and Battlefury. I think I need the cleave for Sleight of Fist. Alternatively would it be better to change the BFury for a rapier? (I already have gold for BB and rapier). [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 27 Mar 2018 10:46 PM PDT I watched all of Fnatic games. DJ is so good at these tusk, clock, sk I'm rank ~200 clockwerk in opendota now but I've given up on getting to top 100. Sand King is my new best friend. Any tips is appreciated. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 28 Mar 2018 12:02 PM PDT I usually play position 4 or 5 and I would like to have some tips on how to make my Invoker player happy. What are the best heroes from a support position to pair up with him? [link] [comments]  |

| Time to settle on a few heroes - how do I choose? Posted: 28 Mar 2018 11:10 AM PDT Hey guys. After a lot of reading, and some really disappointing performances lately, I'm finally willing to sacrifice versatility, and focus on just 2-3 heroes (carry, my preferred role). Now I want to understand how to go about picking them. Is it as simple as just choosing the carries I'm already okay with, or are there other considerations? Because if I were to pick what carries to focus on, based on who I'm both comfortable with and okay with, it'd be Phantom Lancer, Chaos Knight and Lifestealer. Maybe replace one of them with Void, if I want a carry with a bigger teamfight ability. For the life of me I don't know why, but carries that are considered fairly simple really aren't kind to me. My win rate with Jug, Luna and Sven is atrocious (over time, regardless of what's meta right now or not). With Jug I have 37% WR over 35 games, Luna is 42% WR on 26 games, and Sven is 37% WR on 16 games. I kinda like playing all of them, but I'm wondering if I'm at a point where I need to acknowledge I just suck at them for some reason, and focus on others to not just keep losing MMR on these heroes. tl;dr what's the recommended way of choosing what few heroes to focus on? Arbitrary decision, or should i consider certain things? Dotabuff profile (3.4k MMR) [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 28 Mar 2018 03:32 AM PDT How is the matchup supposed to play out? What should I do if I'm the invo? What to do if I'm gyro? Thanks. [link] [comments]  |
| Anyone can help me to improve being as a offlane? (Legend) Posted: 27 Mar 2018 10:46 PM PDT Hello, i mainly play offlaner. I mainly play tide, magnus, centaur, dark seer. But in my laning stage sometimes i got zoned very hard where i find myself cant farm, at this situation i know i need to go to jungle to get some exp and gold.

| Beastmaster+potato microing skills=? Posted: 28 Mar 2018 05:29 AM PDT I've figured the hero is pretty decent atm, and i kinda want give him a try but as things are my micro is to say the least not my best skill. I've seen sumail playing him like to level 6 (3 0 2 1) with success. Now I'm wondering is that a thing u can do or was it just a thing cause there was an IO making his lane super easy and making his passive + q just more value then the animal shits.

| Posted: 28 Mar 2018 04:47 AM PDT It's 1v0 lobby no bots no cheats. The challenge is to get 600lh in 30 mins. I managed a clean 500 even tho I got about 100 lh(+-1) in 10 mins. Obviously I don't know what farm patterns are. Please help me take it to 600. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 28 Mar 2018 04:21 AM PDT https://www.dotabuff.com/matches/3802125770 I was the Ember spirit, go ham. Things I noticed I did wrong: CS could be higher in the first 10 mins, the mid tusk I played against was competent. Linkins was a bad purchase as I quickly realised Tusk can just auto cast his punch Any insight appreciated :) [link] [comments]  |
