I just discovered Weaver! :D

His Swarm is so versatile...want to tower dive? Sure...Swarm the hero and give chase with the tower hitting the beetles instead of you..and you can even jungle with it... :0 Also when pushing the creeps seem to prioritize the beetles over other creep so you can push too with it and it gives sight if heroes are trying to escape! Wooow!

Shukuchi is also quite versatile...I just put on Medallion/Aquila/Wand/Power Treads and I can pretty much use it endlessly to harass in lane or go roaming for a ganking opportunity. It also seems to dodge spells/projectiles...I'm not sure but I definitely seemed to dodge stuff.

It's actually the first hero where I feel like you have to really choose the skills you level because all skills are pretty useful and they all combine so well together...I even feel like skipping his ulti just so I can have another level in his other skills.
 
You're the same guy who Zsmj called a noob. I think I know who I won't believe ;p

I said he was terrible when he played with me (which is true). If I called him a "noob," it was obviously tongue in cheek, because I never, ever say "noob" seriously. :P

And Na`Vi generally plays terribly these days, where Dignitas is in good form.
 
Why do Navi always need to get stomped before they get serious? My heart can't take this :(

Because they need the motivation to get serious. Seems like that's almost always how Dendi is. He doesn't get serious until he has to as his, more often, casual skill is still high enough to go through most teams.
 
Recast of Kaipi-Funnik at 1AM

Not sure Navi winning this is good news - if they lose to Alliance they are eliminated.

I've noticed NaVi and old Mouz are/were teams that consistantly would throw or fuck around the first game they played in a set, and then put on their serious faces for the next two. In the case of NaVi I kind of always assumed it was a type of mindgame they played, because of their reputation they could afford to throw game 1 to give the enemy team a mental "Okay guys we got this" kind of attitude, and then just shit on their chest.

Spirit Breaker - such a pubstomper it's not even funny

Yeah, was thinking this morning I should get the games streak positive again with him. Had a series of 5 games where someone disconnects, one game with a 3 stack of Chinese guys all with 1k+ ping, and a first time Meepo player. Can only do so much as Nyx :(

I think I only played with him once in a random game and did pretty well considering I never played him. Seems easy in pub games.

If the game is going really well, I usually type in all chat that people should carry a TP scroll with them so they can get away. Always fun to ult into their fountain and run out!
 
What's up with the Kaipi game? Did it get delayed?

It was played simultaneously alongside the Na'vi vs Dignitas game, but the stream (and the results) will only be released tomorrow alongside a live cast of the replay.

(This is apparently because there aren't any available Chinese casters to cover both games at the same time and the G-1 admins want every game to have a cast.)
 
What's the best way to avoid being instagibbed by Spirit Breaker's combo if playing a squishy support? Once he has bkp at least it's quite hard to not die at the beginning of every fight. Can his charge be disjointed by blinking? And does bkb protect you from his ult?

I had a friend you played his first SB game in single draft. He kept getting stuck in trees from cancelling his charge at the wrong time. In between times he stomped the enemy team into the ground.

Ugh so dumb. Is the result at least out there somewhere. I somehow doubt that can be kept under wraps.
