Is there any hero that dagon is actually considered a good item on?
Seems to have the worst rep.
I've played around with it being on pugna because of decrep, I don't know if this is a laughable strat. I would think it would be a good idea if you could pick it up before 15 minutes.

Nature's Prophet is a hero that can use it quite well, but I would rather go for other items.
Probably tinker. But not as first item. Sheep Stick + combo + dagon + Rearm. Rinse and repeat. That's if you can sustain all that mana.
Anybody read this thread on the dev forums?
It's a suggestion from a user so not official.
After picking the hero you can select a lane (or jungle) while still in picking time. Also he's talking about people volunteering to buy the donkey and flying donkey during this time. Maybe even other items like wards/vlads as well.
Seems like an amazing idea.
Also 4 minutes of new taunts: http://youtu.be/xd9BC0QTTG8
Sniper..touching..his...gun..

Think you will be able to buy them in the store.

Well that was a good way to start it out....
Kapura with the biggest kill steal of the century.
QoP, Doom and Veno brittle down the AM to 100 hp, Kapura comes in with OD for the final attack.
Way to KS bro.
And that bad fight at bottom tower might be game just now.(edit : nvm that, AM got too manly for his own good)
carry.
Still lost because i got hooked before the last fight :[
Need to queue captains mode then.
Nah just need to pick smart
yo OD is always smart. He makes a business out of having most intelligence!
And by "smart" you mean WR, DS, AM, Furi, Invoker, Chen, CM, Void, Rhasta, AA, Viper, NS, Slar, Tide, SK, ES, Lich ,BH, Weaver, OD, and POTM?
weaver is garbs and you forgot to include od
WR, OD, SandK, Invoker, AA, Enchantress, Chen, SS, Veno, NP, VS, NS, SkeleK, CM, DK, Lich, AM, Void, BH, BeastM
Judging by the games we played yesterday.
Lion is a horrible wards bitch. He needs dat farm. I dont really like him as support unless he supports a broodmother.
Lion needs farm?
What's next?
Carry Lich?
What's next?
Carry Lich?
I don't see enchant getting picked enough. Also who is NP?
That's so true though, better to just call him Nature's Profit, cause he always fulfilling that quota

Why would Lion need farm?
Unless you're going troll Aghanim's/Dagon/Refresher, of course.
he's an xbox blink initiator. but somebody who doesn't know how to play should be buying wards until they learn to be better.
Pugna is awful. If you cant gib a pugna something is wrong with your team.

Blink is hardly a lot of money, so I ask again: why would Lion need farm?
I don't think it's a matter of "need", his usefulness grows immensely with farm, to the point that it's justified to put him in a position to get it ( Sending him Middle Lane ), that's the only situation where I've seen a "Farming Lion", and even in the middle lane, it has a lot to do with him gaining levels and how that effects his usefulness as a ganker in the mid game. It's rare to see a side lane "Farming Lion", actually it's rare to see any support in that role.
Blink / Force Staff / Mekansm Lion > Wards / Counter Wards / Smoke Lion

lol kap, guess you suck at support, dying all the time
get good, then talk
Well, sure, literally every support would benefit from getting a lot of farm early. I'm only questioning the statement, "He needs dat farm," which implies that he should have farm priority in a lane.
Also, even Force Staff and Mek are still cheap (and really easy to build in pieces, which is nice).
