I think they've changed roster after every single TI. Even when they won they dropped Artstyle over a contract dispute.

Just the nature of the thing.

I'm still very proud of Orange. They won approximately RM 1 million which is a huge chunk of change. HUGE. Each member of the team could flat out pay in cash for an entire apartment for their portions. Even though they kinda derped up their last game I will now support them a lot haha.

Orange did really well, I agree. Their successes also make me feel less bad about them thumping Fnatic previously. :)

Going through the replay of the orange vs navi...they were in a position to beat navi...but bounty hunter's track gold happened which distributed the gold more evenly among the team which let navi's supports do their job better. overall it was funny as the first orange vs navi match had something like 72k pendants for navi and 2.2k pendants for orange, game 2 it was 65k pendants vs 4.4k.

Lately some of us started playing together, some of us newer than others but id say the level is the same, we lost some games, but so far we are 2-0 when the party is full! This post its not really to tell you of our adventures but to disgrace Alkhemia, who wont mix with the plebs, i think he is too good to be seen with us *sobs*.

I'd be down to join a party sometime. I like playing with other people who communicate.  ;D

I had just about the best Zeus game I've ever had earlier today, despite losing. It was a 'hard' bot match, and our Lifestealer started feeding hardcore right off the bat and quit at minute 14. Our Io was doing alright but then disconnected for 6 or 7 minutes before coming back severely underleveled. My brother was playing Crystal Maiden and did a fairly passable job at it. (Second time on the hero, probably 10th game ever.) There was a Lion, but right when we started turning the tide and winning at about minute 35, he bought literally 100 couriers. Yep, he farmed 15,000 gold and bought flying couriers to load with regular couriers and have them follow him. I don't think he said anything. Meanwhile, I beat Tiny in the middle lane and proceeded to farm like crazy. I jungled, I stacked ancients, I got kills, and by minute 45 or so I had gotten a full loadout. Level 25 with Boots of Travel, Linken's Sphere, Heart of Tarrasque, Refresher Orb, Aghanim's Scepter, and a Rod of Atos to slow people down and beat them up. (Zeus needs to go faster.  :-[) Despite our best efforts, we simply could not break into the enemy base. As our base slowly whittled away, I was tanking entire mega creep waves, evaporating three enemies at a time, and so forth.

Health: 3,996
Mana: 2,230
Armor: 11.75
HP Regen: 16/second (97 with heart)
Mana Regen: 28.9/second
Damage: ~235

Plus some various auras from my allies. It was actually enough mana regeneration to continuously cast Arc Lightning, and I was able to spam every spell on cooldown (including Refresher Orb and the Rod of Atos) and simply melt everyone. I think that's the first time playing Zeus where I actually had more mana than I could possibly use. Normally I start with a bottle whether I'm in the middle or not, since Zeus eats mana and shits thunder. In this case, I sold my bottle in order to pick up an aegis (then replacing that with Linken's Sphere), and managed to never run out of mana again.

But even a few hits from a mega creep per wave stacks up over time, and there were simply too many.

That sounds awesome. Did anything else happen in regards to those couriers?

So here I am, logging into the Bay12 Forums.  I'm not sure whether to feel happy about this, or sullenly admit the loss of what little remained of my soul after all of this Fun.  So much Fun.  So, so much Fun.  <shudders>
First things first.  You're all soulless husks of what might have once been decent human beings, drafted into a sort of moral apartheid from your better natures in the pursuit of things made out of cute animals.  I love it.

Oh god. I decided to check all pick again after months without playing there. It's been more than a year since I saw people playing THAT bad. Trying to get in position to gank someone as clinkz? Io comes and theters you, giving away your position and fucking the gank while not even stunning anyone. Pudge with DD has burnt all his spells and now is walking to hack at your team? Perfect time to bloodrage him.

So... freakin... painful...

I have played 18 matches since the end of TI3. 15 of them have included Pudge. What the hell, internet.  ::)

Anyway, has anyone else noted an uptick in armlet/lifesteal Abaddon? Dude cannot seem to die.
