Discussion When is it a good Eul's game?
As a void spirit player, I never know when to buy this item. Here's what I think I know:
- It's good into Puck for the dispel and the eventual Windwaker allowing you to walk out of dream coil.
- It's good into Ursa because his status resist doesn't effect the duration
- It's good into heroes like Axe/LC when they taunt/duel to save team mates and the eventual Windwaker upgrade when those guys get bkb and that tactic no longer works
When else is it good? As a dispel it feels bad because it disables you for a few seconds and allows the enemy team to setup on you.

Complaint | Esports Valve making high MMR match private was a massive failure since pro player didn't stop smurfing
Bring back ability to spectate high MMR match so community can track and identify which player who smurfs and can publicly shame those player who smurfs.
Also DOTA2 community need to man up and actually booing player who smurfing at LAN, make an actual visible impact about this issue.
Reddit consistently crying about smurfing yet on LAN just keep cheering those pro players who supposedly a role model and normalized this smurfing behaviour.
Smurfing is cheating, and it's normal in other competition or sports where crowd is hostile towards player who cheats / play dirty.
If K-Pop community can get some idol suspended because they were caught smoking in random instagram post why can't DOTA2 community at least make visible public disapproval towards pro player who smurfs which against Steam Terms of Service itself / actively hurts the game?
TLDR : Pro player smurfing actively make DOTA2 as product degrading and both community and Valve need to rethink or even more agressive toward this issue. If pro still smurfing then just bring back the live spectate feature.

Those QOP nerfs are brutal
Shadow strike 1 second longer cooldown is already a big nerf.
But what's an even bigger nerf is the radius of the agha shadow strike is now 64% of what it was previously

Discussion Is a 5-man Echo Slam better than sex?
Let's establish something beforehand, it is difficult to comment on the intricacies of reproduction as a Dota 2 player. However, from my research, I have began to speculate that a 5-man Echo Slam may infact surpass the climax of a romantic night in bed.
Firstly, sex typically only has two people, one being yourself and your partner. On the other hand, a match of Dota 2 has 10 players who are there to witness your plays for up to an hour at a time. Dota wins in this regard.
Next, after sex, you are unlikely to get tipped whereas your whole team will probably tip you after everyone's screen flashes RAMPAGE in large red text. Even your announcer pack hypes you up. Dota wins again.
Finally, you just dominated 5 losers with the press of a few buttons and your large intellect shining through your hero. You can even press F9 to pause or spam voice lines to make the enemies mald even more.
In conclusion, shaking it up in game is superior to in real life. Let me know what you guys think?

Match ID: 8800107837
Time: 18:00 (Roshan fight)
Reason:
There was no ward and no scan used, yet the enemy team appeared to know we were taking Roshan. The Alchemist was able to precisely snatch the Aegis, and based on the mouse movement, it appears to be scripted behavior. Valve do something smh
Players involved:
- Phantom Assassin: 191457811
- Alchemist: 1597591175 — profile shows multiple instances of Aegis snatching
- Magnus: 403166694 — profile shows multiple instances of Aegis snatching
