Have you people not realize that you complain about EVERY SINGLE right-click carry that gains prominence being 'boring', 'OP', or 'bullshit'?

It's how the role works, guys.
This. I think LD is awesome. Really interesting hero.Laning is cool to see with him.


If everyone hates LD, AM, and others, then who are your favorite carries? Luna is easily my favorite. You get to be a aggressive early game, you have a good farming tool, and then she scales well for late game.
 
Laned with Luna as Treant and boy did we own. Both of our ultimate's together just won us every team fight. Treant is so fun to play.
 
Nothing could replace the fractured core of hate in me that is Antimage. I still remember. I STILL REMEMBERRR

The problem wasn't Antimage being over powered, is that Valve ported the bulk of Caster Heroes first, which is what Anitmage is best against. Once the roster filled out, he really fell in win rate. While he has had nerfs, they are pretty small things.

Nah pl dances invisibly, am blinks around, fv has a pretty purple sphere, alch is just awesome, luna and drow are hot.

Ld is a boring ass bear. OH SNAP THERE IS AN ENTANGLE so exciting.

The only carries I like are Luna and Chaos Knight.

Edit: Oh....Jugg is a carry too, derp.

I agree, but I still hate the bastard. Overexposure to the extreme.

CK, Luna, Juggernaut, Naix are all good carries who I prefer over lame ass bullshit that promotes boring play. Those 3 can get involved quick and be in the action. AM, Sylla, PL, Naga, Morphling – fuck all of them. Scumbag central.
 
Still waiting for dota2 mac!

Whenever I use my mac is for work reasons, so I wish I could get my dota relieve here. If I turn my pc is basically all day gaming.

Yo gaben, give me a hand here, I'm trying to be productive.
 
Holy shit. 12 losses in a row. Granted about 4 of those are with a completely noob friend, but god damn. There is always one motherfucker that fucks the game up. I dont know man... i dont know.

LD is cool but I don't yet have the hands to play him competently.

As to my favourite carries...

Have my fingers in a lot of pies.

Drow's appeal has increased since her Marksmanship nerf, oddly enough.
 
I was wondering if anyone could clarify how exactly windrun's slow works mechanically? The wiki doesn't mention the radius at which heroes are slowed, how often it checks if a hero is in range, and what the duration of the slow is.

Biggest thing with AM was the BAT and blink turn rate nerfs. Sure certain heroes were released that counter the living shit out of him (naga, ck pre-nerf, sd) but most of those were already post am nerf, and no1 really cried about him anymore. Now people are crying about LD Naix PL as the op carries, when bane, panda, naga (ho ho ho) all crush LD and Naix, while Pl isn't even a real problem. The only time a carry was really grossly overpowered without a counter in the game was probably morphling during ti2 era, but then he got icefraud'd

E: Spectre best carry, ksan sux tho
 
I went support Alch. It did not go well. I'm not quite sure what I should focus on when doing this type of build. I might try it again in the future though.

Get kills, roam a little maybe. You can't expect to play him like Jakiro or Rubick and do well, you need to focus on landing high duration stuns and allow your team to snowball off that.
 
I just accidentally found something useful in-game. If you put your mouse cursor over one of your skills and press and hold the alt button you get more detailed information about it in green text. Works on most skills.
