    Pretty much spot on for carries. Playing most carries gives your team the disadvantage earlier on, whilst giving you the advantage later on. Best way to counter Lycan, and also the most frustrating for him to deal with is to:Choose a Jungler, Dark Seer/Chen/Enchantress being the best.Ward the small camp and medium pull camp.Stack one of the big camps 2/3 times so it becomes impossible for him to beat it.Farm from the remaining big camp and the lane you're closest to.Lycan has very little farm and is severely underleveled. By this time, start pushing lanes.Most low level pubs have no idea about blocking the camps so if they don't counter ward, just stick another set up after 6 minutes.The explaination is of course, harder than the execution but can be done. The problem with Lycan is that his core item build costs so little and he can flash farm from a ridiculously early level in comparison to AM which requires a Battlefury and Blank maxed. Since Naga is pretty much a direct counter to Lycan hopefully both should see some comp play. And jesus, Blink dagger + Naga's ulti = LOL, what teamfight. If she gets a Blink, no one else needs to. Tide, Enigma, Sand King can just walk and prepare for Naga finishing her ulti.

    It really was. I don't think I've genuinely had fun in Doter since my first couple of games.I haven't been playing a lot for the hours I've put in (180 games, 350+ hours) but I've done a hell of a lot of background research on the wiki, watching and replaying competetive games, along with browsing the /vg/ thread (though I need to take things said there with a pinch of salt) and the PlayDota threads and guides. You're really good yourself too, from what I've seen from watching Magmarrax's game anyway (though the last of his games I watched was when you decided you'd 5-man lvl 1 Rosh and then 5-man push mid ).I'll also get Mumble soon for when we play again.

    So my first game as Axe. Decide I'll practice what I preach about his builds and max Battle Hunger first and get a Soul Ring as soon as possible.Axe is too fun when you become an honorary ranged hero.Match ID if anyone wants it; 26716271

    Okay, round two. For some reason, the thing I remember most about Final Fantasy X is the events straight after Operation Mi'hen, when you regain consciousness on the beach with all the dead soldiers and you have to walk past them looking for Yuna and co. That and any CGI scene involving Sin. Things like Sin and Majora's Moon seriously gave me an obsession with monsters that huge (NOT to be confused with a scale fetish). The ending to L.A. Noire. Oblivion's Dark Brotherhood quest line as my Khajit that only used a knife and always had a massive stock of poisons handy on him to suit the situation. Dark Chronicle. The entire game. Getting that achievement on Halo 3 where you have to finish the final level on legendary, 4 player co-op, all on mongooses. It took us 4 hours but fuck, was it fun.

    Man, I'm going to need to buy a 1TB HDD soon if I buy much more since I like to keep everything installed since I can't casually install a 5gb game in hour because of my dismal download speeds.

    We don't use VOIP, since we queue either on the Euro or US and now that the Ruskies have their own playground everyone speaks English I prefer to use ingame to set up ganks and team fight initiations. That's mainly because we can never get a 5 man queue though and would happily use something else if such was the case (note that I've never used TeamSpeak/Mumble/Vent before and would need to set that up, I don't know how long that would take)As for modes, when I solo queue I search for SD. Playing with 4 randoms in AP feels like a waste of time. Good luck trying to get Hertz to play SD though, I think he's made some sort of mental attachment to Drow by now.I'm free pretty much every day from 17:10 - 00:00/01:00 GMT+0.Would help if I added you sometime; I'll get right on that.

    Congrats DCP!

    If I still played TF2 I'd be jealous like crazy.Good job though, it will look great with your Saxxy when we all win one. :D

    I have the other two. The only logical choice. I found much worse and unexpected, Ghost seemed like such a bro, and there was still the possibility it was Gaz. If you notice the sales at the bottom right, Amnesia has just gone on sale for the price it could have been if voted, the same can be said for pretty much all of the others. They all get their chance to shine.

    I still here "Sacrifce" in my head whenever I think of this scene I'm a Raiden fan since MGS2, I truly thought he died at this point. http-~~-//www.youtube.com/watch?v=MGLpFgd1VkQ

    Fuck it, we're all big boys, we can all handle criticsm. Skye The fact that you random every game annoys me a bit since there's always the chance you get someone you don't know how to play/skill, though with continued use and now that you're playing much more, shoudle eventually not happen. On the upside however, it does mean every so often you get a hero you can play best, even better if it's a support (although I feel you'd prefer not to be support, that's fine). Now that I've taken somewhat of a captain role when we queue, it's fantastic that you follow my suggestions for item/skill builds and map movement. (I am mainly referring here to the Sven you reluctantly but brilliantly (God damn, the stuns on Clinkz) played as Support) Rammite Still quite new to the game Matchmaking-wise, from the games I've played with you so far it feels that you think your hero is stronger than he actually is by way of trying to solo against multiple. (not referring to laning, that's fine) Whenever you are playing, it's a practice match. You practice a LOT, which is all I can ask, even if it's not just generally to practice, but to perfect things like Sand King's Epicenter. Not much else I can say since we haven't played nor have I spec'd your games in a long time Hertz This is my biggest irk with you, despite the fact that I can't see how playing a hero so much is still fun and not just a process it severely cripples you if someone else picks drow or your team consists of 4 other carries, which more often than not is the case. The upside to this however is that you are getting much better with Drow, much better at last hitting (rather than auto-attacking) and have finally stopped building that god damn Shadow Blade as 100% core item. You seem to do well in every game you play Drow (which happens to be every game) You are so incredibly pessimistic it hurts (no pun intended), even when the enemy have only the slightest advantage you already feel defeated, more often than not rhetorically asking "Who fed X" when you know who died a couple of times, and we all have our off games. So yeah, just letting ya'll know those are a somewhat short review of the main three people I've played with and the only people I've formed opinions on... Except PGG, if I did one of these for PGG, there'd be so much red I'd probably attract a herd of bulls. :p

    I think pretty much everyone has Dota 2 here now (even if some people refuse to learn play because they're bad "it's boring") and a couple of guys I know from TF2 Trading have started playing so queueing with 3-4 people is getting quite frequent, which is great since people listen to me. If I'm on Doter but not playing, chances are I'm watching ya'll play; And the majority of my matches are queued with you guys so how about we share perhaps some criticsms and advice, strengths and weakness' etc... (feel free to "do" me too, since I'm far from perfect) Naturally if you can't take don't want criticsm that's fine. :D

    I already have physical Copies of both Monkey Islands, I wish they would put Curse of Monkey Island on sale, it doesn't even need a HD remake. :(

    I'm fine playing this, new character and all. Timezones could be a little confusing though and I'd prefer to keep at the same level as everyone else.Just let me know what class I need to play for optimal performance.
