I just want to play spirit heroes every game
please give earth spirit a facet that finally lets him go mid.
Maybe make it stun on pull , slow on roll and silence on kick, with some drawback that makes him worse as a support.

if the issue with naix is that he does chip damage over time rather than bursts wouldn't bloodthorn fix him
then again the other problem is the kiting issue but that's more of a melee hero thing
>>
household esports names like arteezy, topson are struggling to break 15k mmr even when chainqueuing 12hrs a day all week long. what separates them from guys like watson, pure, satanic and other top 50 players who can't stop breaking mmr milestones. even less famous guys with no esports career yet can get past the mmr ceiling. what do u guys think is the x factor for that

bro im so fucking done with dota
why is this ngiger going 0 tombstone and then baiting me on wisdom
im just waiting for him to pop it and we both die because hes a nigger

>>551939316
you get radiance so you don't die to right clickers, many right clickers also don't want to build mkb
LS is worse after the radiance change since he doesn't help his team stay alive as well. without radiance big right clickers are a huge problem and its why LS used to go early AC back in the day
then you get a yasha item so you can chase people and right click better (sny normally, manta if you need the dispel very badly), basher so people don't run and you are harder to duel
aghs is a very important pick up so you can again jump on people and kind of "reset" the fight and not get pushed out of fights because you took some burst, and also very well with radiance and pretty much in general you can see that most of items are to solve his problems and deal with his weaknesses and hes a pretty flexible hero item build wise but you always need to getting items to fix his problems.
bloodthorn doesn't really fix any of his problems, its pretty much only an anti evasion item (as far as he is concerned, really) and mkb is a lot better on him in most cases.
>>
damn i cant believe i won that game
>>
>>551939897
damn i just lost a game in 15 min because 1 guy couldnt do the community agreed upon meta build
gg
>>
>>551939316
That's the problem to be desu
He needs an item to help farm- Radiance or Mael at least.
He kind of wants Armlet too, like all Str sustain/tanky auto heroes. And you need your Aghs to fight against other cores. And you need basher or null or something as much as you need Bloodthorn to increase your damage.

Great idea though, makes better use of that % current health damage.

Is this some SEA shit?

>>551941231
what's the problem here?
tombstone wins fights, heal can do a lot if timed correctly, flesh golem just means you die less quickly, but you have your innate and positioning to mitigate that.
seems like a reasonable support build to me

Did there use to be a mechanic that reduced the duration of chained CC? I haven't played in almost a decade but I seem to remember having to think about the order that I used my CC

I have been playing doom and omniknight middle (when its appropriate based on my teams draft) and I have only lost 1 out of 12 games doing this (which I stomped middle but my team threw in late game and we got t3 > t4 > ancient before anyone respawned and I was only one with BB) and I don't think its a good idea to keep picking this.
Need a more stable bruiser mid for when my team picks retarded squishy shit with no initiation and no pick off tools, DK is the idea but he feels so shit to play with his garbage he scales unless u try to giga farm and that goes against the purpose of the picks to be active.

viper doesn't really do it and I pick him for other reasons, pudge kind of does it but hes just broken still, but he gets banned a lot and isn't the most stable pick.
what are my other options? do I just accept my team is retarded and pick like invoker and try to just play ultra greed behind my team and blowing up the enemy?

its crazy how fucked communication score is
I am 12k behavior but 6.5k communication.

you need to get reported 7 times in 15 games for behavior score to break even, so if 8 people report you then you lose a little
but communication break even is only 2, so if more than 2 people report you then the communication score goes down.

I want less fucking griefers in my game who do retarded shit and more people communication, not the opposite.
