AWKWARD ZOMBIE

Yeah. Heard a lot of the people have that problem.

I want to start learning Invoker. Was pretty fun in the bot game. Land those combos.

Here's a handy thing to practice invoking.

The hardest part is being able to do the right inputs under pressure. And selecting the right spell for the situation. The hero isn't solely about landing big combos, although that's probably the most fun part.

Oh man, TI European Qualifiers are turning out even closer and exciting than I expected. Navi vs HR game 2 especially was a rollercoaster. CIS doto best doto (in terms of entertainment).

Also keep in mind do you wanna try quas wex or quas exort . Cause they are different mindsets to start with. I personally prefer quas wex with tornado emp followed by deafening. I was never any good at sunstriking unless I had a set up

Yeah you should pick one build and stick to it in the start, hero is hard enough already. Of course eventually you should learn all styles.

Personally I started with the fast double forge spirit build for early pushing. Quas wex is a more gank oriented playstyle.

Aaaand Alliance fails to qualify. Oh my.

I might have made some rares on this series, but I was a couple seconds too late to bet :/

goddamnit alliance...why wouldn't loda make a bkb...whyyyyyyy

Don't think it would have mattered, he would have had to sacrifice one of his core items to get it fast enough and it wouldn't have helped him stop the 1k gpm Alch. It was PRs game to throw after the 15 min mark (and for a second there I though they would, goddamn CIS dota). Alliance did too little to shut down PRs extremely greedy line up.

Honestly, I was never on board with the "Alliance is back"-train. They're still plagued by the same core problem: too reliant on 4+1 and splitpush oriented line-ups, and gimmicky strats like IO+tiny or furion.


On the other hand
THE HALLOWED ONE, THE MASTER OF STRATEGY, THE KING OF GANK, THE SULTAN OF PUSH, THE TZAR OF TEAMFIGHT, THE SLAYER OF EHOME, THE CAPTAIN OF THEY YEAR 2010, THE CHAMPION OF THE INTERNATIONAL THE ONE AND ONLY ARTSTYLE
seems to have actually brought Navi back. They've picked Dendi Pudge too and lost.

i saw that dendi pudge and laughed. that was just for fun style probs. but yea im glad arts is back now. he seems to have gotten them back in the right mind set, even if dendi still sometimes fucks off and farms instead of helping

Source 2 is coming boys: Week 1 Interface Edition

Well done Valve, this has pretty much everything the community was asking for.

Man, PL has to be the most misused hero in pro games. He keeps getting picked into his counters and pros rarely go for the broken triple orb build (diffusal, satanic, skadi). No wonder he has a mediocre 48.9% winrate.

Just one of many custom game modes that will become available, but this one looks pretty fun.

Valve stayed on schedule this time. I really like the custom games. Pudge Wars is fun.

Oh man, if Invoker gets the Arcana I will jizz my pants and might actually even buy it.

In e-sport news, I'm slowly starting to believe the Secret Will Never Lose meme.

The new Invoker Immortal turns him into a goddamn super saiyan. Well, there goes my cheddar.
