"Might seem cheap" = blocking a whole football goal with a bus? That seems like a whole different kind of cheap to me. Like a "why was that even allowed"-kind of cheap.
I mean, if they didn't wanna deal with that boring-ass Pudge+Chen combo, they coulda just banned Pudge, because Na'Vi is the only pro team to play him anyway. But nope, they just let Pudge through and faced #dotamechanics.

It's just a saying for playing defensively, or turtling. ;P

You cant dissect it. Its a current that runs up the center of your spine. I dont know if any of you have sat down, crossed your legs, smoked DMT, and watch what happens... but what happens to me is this big thing goes RRRRRRRRRAAAAAWWW! up my spine and flashes in my brain... well apparently thats whats going to happen if I do this stuff...

winning dota never was about kills or lanes or combos or items or gold or experience
it was about defending your god damn ancient and destroying the enemies' ancient
cheese strats my ass

I was just commenting on that football thing.
While I think the Pudge+Chen combo is boring, I can't fault people for wanting to win, just as long as it's within the mechanics of the game.
Blocking a football goal with a bus would be like... blocking the minimap of the other team from view or something.

I always thought that it has high chance to backfire. Like, missed hook and flew to home alone. 4v5 fight lost Originally Posted by Longview

True, Gandalf and Cancer Lancer is at least as cheesy/boring. Originally Posted by Longview

KotL/PL isn't a hard lane to beat.

Yeah, it's not fun to be wrecked by 0/11/0 warlock who keeps pushing, farming and dying but still being able to buy cheap items for agh+refresher to wreck your team with 4 golem worse-than-entagle-attack-proc Originally Posted by Longview

That's odd, I don't really remember losing a 2v2 lane to them. Maybe if people soak all Illuminates, I guess. Originally Posted by Ariadne

KotL/PL is also one of the worst combos in the pro scene with a win rate of 52%. Originally Posted by Hermanni
