Also hitman you were right about Chaos Knight. I popped Armlet/Phantasm/Manta in the last game I had like 5 minutes ago on a QoP. She instantly exploded (This was really late game though).

late game CK is really scary IF (IF IF IF) done right and there is no one good at clearing illusions he just dominates.

Funny thing is, QoP should be the one who's good at clearing Illusions at that point. She's got some decent AoE (and hell I was laning against her) but I guess she was just bad (and really squishy).

shes got perfect aoe in the form of her scepter, but that means nothing if you gangbang her before she can react

I just had to share this beautiful insight into team (monkey) Business.

This is how our team enviroment is like. Bigdaddyn0tail is screaming in the mic:" BIGDADDY BIGDADDYYYYY BIG DOOOOODYYY YEEEAAAA IM" GOING INNNNN". I'm yelling "GET ON MY LEVEL HOE YEEE NEVA EVA NEVA EVA YOU CAN NEVA EVA GET ON MY LEVEL HOE" everytime I kill someone. Fly is spamming Alt Left-Click on his gold to count it every second, he's also spamming Alt Left-Click quickbuyu on Midas to remind us every second how close he is to buying Midas while me and n0tail are yelling at him stop counting your cheddar jew and don't buy midas or we'll lose. Meanwhile cr1t's spamming "Good Game" on the chat wheel while typing "I am dead" every other second. Alas we have Miracle- aka "M-God" aka "8 0 0 0 M A T C H M A K I N G P O I N T S" playing anti-mage and I think he muted all of us.
Now you might be thinking:"How the hell does a team function like that? Let alone win?!". Well that's because this is the environment Miracle- is used to playing in his 8000 Ranked MM games. He ends up playing anti-mage or SF and carries the game 1v9. We are simply re-creating the environment in which he excels: Miracle + four 4k mmr teammates

So I turned a game around as Faceless Void after getting an MKB and stomping the enemy PA. I was getting a bit salty mid game because I hate PA (funny because early-game she was an idiot and 1v1'd me 2 two times and died). I think the turning point was when I snatched the Aegis when they tried to kill Roshan for the second time and killed PA and Ursa, to which we promptly quoted Willy Wonka "YOU GET NOTHING, YOU LOSE, GOOD DAY SIR" After that I got a few more kills and then proceeded to get Butterfly and Heart, and then it was GG.

Alternatively the turning point was when their Luna DC'd, as they already had a man down from the start, they did get us to final two towers though.

That was a weird game though. Tiny and IO went mid lane together for some sort of rock whip combo (Don't know why they didn't just, go bot and let someone else mid) and in the final minutes of the game, for some unknown reason, Wisp got a Divine Rapier. Tiny claimed it was for morale but I was like "WHY DID YOU GET A DIVINE RAPIER"

Teammates are for chumps.

What the hell is up with Windranger's Shackleshot? I tried to throw it on a running Brewmaster with a tree right behind him but it didn't shackle. Same thing for Tinker with his own creep behind him.

Wisp in dual mid lanes is very legit, you can carry the bottle for your mid, get his runes and heal both of you.

Haha Techies got fucking rekt. Overall it seems all the cancer heroes got nerfed while pretty much every one else got buffed. Most drastic is probably Warlock Golems being immune to purge.

Probably time to try Invoker again, especially since Bottle got nerfed.

Though with no cooldown on diffusal blade anymore, he sort of had to without making Warlock complete shit.

Excited. Lich no longer shares XP with enemies through sacrifice. Fuck your gold and XP you enemy laners. Hot daisies, back to autowinning lanes we go.

Any tips for playing Nyx Assassin? I've been trying to master him.

Recently won a game as him going 11/10/?? (can't remember how many assists I had) The 3 Items I had when game ended were: Dagon (Level 2, Level 4 on the way but game ended before I got it), Arcane Boots, and Scythe Of Vyse. I was up against a Pudge, Alchemist, Phantom Assassin, Bounty Hunter, and Undying Team.

I think I have the late-game down, but I'm not sure about early-game as if anyone ganks me before ult, the only survival skill I have is Spiked Carapace. Also, should I rush Dagon (what I did that game) or get Boots first?

Can someone also please explain to me how a Huskar can single-handedly turn a game around against a Fed Pudge (20 flesh heap stacks at 20 Minutes), with a Sniper who could get all of jack shit (got ganked by his 3 counters constantly), and a nooby Shadow Fiend? (Our Kotl was good though, used his blinding light to save Huskar's booty once, and I got a few kills here and there and provided good CC.)
