10/10 would get forced to build carry on again

Funnily I was the only one carrying dust the whole game and halfway through clinkz and NP just gave up on going invis near me even if my dust was on CD

Should play more Chen, It is fun, except, that fucking ember killing my creeps too fast

*noob feeder team* :V I wasn't really active with my hero during teamfight in lategame. I tried to stay back to provide global heal and only go in when mek was required. Controlling creeps and Chen in one control group could kill me off pretty fast :ohdear:

Thank goodness you restored the cosmic balance by throwing the AD game right after that!

Why waste time on YB for the couriers, when they're easily probably a dollar less on steam market as soon as they're marketable. o3o

Axe commend during the push to mid racks "3 zeus ults and 3 wards, seems legit"
I also pushed top T2 with 2 wards and T3 + racks right after with 2 wards.

Oh god I forgot how deep in the trench I was.

We're miles ahead. We manage to throw and lose because the entire team basically built like morons [Except Batrider].

To quote Ember:
'So much C.C'

Me: Then buy a BkB? If you get a 10 sec BKB now we can just win. [He was really fed and 40 mins in]

Instead he buys a Skadi and a 3rd Deadlius.

Even getting a 2nd Battlefury probobly would have been better than the Skadi Q_Q

So if I queue with MotK, my winrate ranges from 20~50%.
If I queue with my real life friends, my winrate ranges from 84~100%.
HMM.

I'd say Queue with me and play in the trench to end all trenches; but one of us would be playing on a server the other side of the world.

Speaking of; I don't even understand why I love playing Pheonix so much.

But Pheonix is great fun for me. In fact it's probobly my favorite hero and best non-support by far.

I mean; whenever other members of the team pick supports; I generally just default to Pheonix. I literally just played a game as Pheonix when I hit 6; TP'ed to the other side of the map shortly after as a gank happened; Dove in and R'ed and ended up getting a 3 for 0. And then I did something similar as soon as Supernova was back up. Which snowballed our carries pretty hard.

I dunno; all of Pheonix's abilities just fit the sort of archtype I like; someone you can't ignore but not someone who needs tons of farm or items either.

Dormio Ergo Sum · « **Reply #227 on:** March 10, 2015, 10:46:47 PM »

Probably because Pheonix is a really strong hero who fucks up enemy heroes with W and just wins the game with E.
Q and R are okay I guess. R can really mess with the enemy's teamfighting capabilities if you use it right though.

In my bracket my allies and enemies alike run from the giant beam of healing/harming fire.

People don't seem to understand I want to heal them Q_Q

"I love Pheonix so much!", never realising he can't spell Phoenix.

This just dropped for me, I feel like I should start playing Luna.

It's not showing up as incorrect in my browser spellcheck ._. Neither spelling is.

How did we win? Nobody knows, except for the people who played the match.

On the side note, my PA is finally becoming my core carry. So long Naix and PL. Here comes the Dagger, dagger. Hopefully I can keep up the PA win streak.

Dormio Ergo Sum · « **Reply #237 on:** March 14, 2015, 08:08:38 PM »

I also had a super trashcan game last night.
http://www.dotabuff.com/matches/1319132962
Basically, our Pudge was super rubbish and fed the SF at mid until he was like 0-6-1 at 20 minutes, we lost mid rax, and the Pudge abandoned.
Up until this point, Pudge had never landed a single hook.
Since the Pudge abandoned, Tomiko and I took turns controlling him and actually landed hooks and stopped them from pushing into our base, because the enemy team was just as bad as this Pudge.
We dragged game game for another 10 minutes and then we were stronger than the enemy team and we stomped them.

Raikaria · « **Reply #238 on:** March 14, 2015, 10:19:51 PM »

Well I just had a hilarious Ability Draft game.

I was 9th pick [Radiant 5th pick] and I was Slardar.

I pick Charge of Darkness followed by Slithereen Crush. I... don't know how Crush got that far in the draft; it's usually snapped up pretty fast. Admittedly there were a lot of ranged heroes but there was a Treant and Space Cow that picked before me.

Anyway; to make things even more baffleing; by the time I get my 3rd pick Borrowed Time is still up [If someone else had taken Borrowed Time I'd probobly have gone Poison Nova. I might have left it up for our carry-build QoP too; but she had Focus Fire already]. Oh; and I got Wave of Terror too; which is basically a weaker Amplify Damage.

Needless to say; imagine Slardar; except he has Space Cow's charge and Abbadon Ult. Who needs a Blink Dagger? I could basically stunlock and kill a Windranger 1v5 with this build. It was insane. Earlygame was basically 'hit lv 2; charge; tp base; charge tp base repeat and get murdergold'.

I seriously do not understand how I got that combination. I built Phase/Crimson Guard/Shiva/S+Y for a combination of durability and moderate damage myself.

Also I think I charged their Windranger more than twice as much as everyone else combined. She was just the one in vision all the time. And they had a CM and I still charged and murdered the Ginger over her. Why do I hate Gingers so? [But she had Nature's Guise]

Helped my team was smart. Our QoP got Blink [Skill] and everyone else got a Blink Dagger or Force Staff to follow me up. At one point an ally even force staffed me in after we'd killed Charge first target without me even needing to Crush so I could crush the Bane.

Also their Space Cow took Nether Strike without Greater Bash [Which their Treant firstpicked]. He tried to ult me and nothing happened. I don't think he ulted again that game.
