Greetings Earthling! Do you have any Zoom Boots?

Look man, I'm not gonna dress up as windrunner but I can respect someone that does and looks pretty good doing it. Looked like a normal woman wearing an outfit. I liked it.

So is that two header dragons in the current meta, or must I abandon all hope of seeing massive frost breath 5 men aoe stun ? Because I really like the massive aoe stuns in dota2.

That's Jakiro and he's not super popular right now but it wouldn't be the craziest pick if he was drafted. But don't expect it.

e: your big AoE stuns you're likely to actually see are relatively limited, I guess a big Echo Slam from Earthshaker is probably the most likely

That's Jakiro, and no he's not being run much unfortunately. Earthshaker however is being picked pretty often and has both AoE stuns and a balling AoE ultimate

Don't be fooled by massive aoe stuns because ice path is actually the worst ability in the game
