Lanm does that too, he goes support Kunkka 1-4-1 with Armlet, it makes no sense to me at all but he is insane at it

I played a game with fear on arc and it was really loving boring rat dota but we won because good players can do some abusive stuff with that hero

It's a little bit juvenile, but it's simple and it's timeless.

We let it be known that Schnorkles, for a snack, eats tiny pieces of shit.

You're picturing it and you're talking about it. That's a win in my book.

I've never heard that anywhere and I feel like I just looked at his very high winrate and it was bad. But if they say so then obviously they would know.

Wings picked Treant a few weeks ago. At Summit I think? Visage was picked during the qualifiers. Alliance had been picking Centaur lately.

I wouldn't be surprised if EG picked Treant. Isn't it one of PPD's favorite heroes?

What is this max Tidebringer support Kunkka build? Even if you just want to depush, why would you not max Torrent?

Gives you a free Starfall every ... 14?8 seconds. Only goes off if enemies are around though.

But it doesn't put your Starfall on cooldown either so you can cast it and the passive can trigger for a double.

e: jesus it's 8 seconds

Tidebringer casts like every 3 seconds or something max level and doesnt cost mana

Causes starstorm to passively trigger every 8 seconds. If no enemies are in sight, the passive charge remains until you see someone. This allows Mirana to leap in and double starstorm for a ridiculous amount of burst damage.

Its absurdly good to the point where Mirana basically always picks it up now. Players are even stacking it with eth blade and dagon to make Mirana into a leaping nuke.

That's what I thought too but they still get dc'd somehow? :shrug:

Could be worse though. Wasn't a game at the last TI delayed by over an hour due to servers blowing up?
