4 out of 5 games last night I won.
And every last win felt dirty.
We played from behind at the start. One game our sniper had died in the offlane 7 times in less than 10-15 minutes. He would literally let Witch Doctor walk up and stun him. It was incredible. He ended with 14 deaths, I ended with 12 on Vengeful Spirit (which I felt really bad about) but our Void and Ivoker pulled it out and we won.
The last game I went aghs refresher on Lich to deal with this fucking ridiculous PL. The game went 71 minutes and we nearly lost despite having a 50k xp lead and 73 kills (they had 35).
These heroes that can stall out games are so fucking annoying. It doesn't help that we had Worlds Most Useless Mirana (TM) who refused to fight most of the time.

The only difference is that after the first 3 deaths I'd just leave the lane and go and be useless somewhere else, like jungling with shrapnel or something.

Being the genius he is, he picked sniper well after we had a safe lane hero and a mid hero. Also didnt put any points in shrapnel until he was forced to.

I don't usually get shrapnel on sniper either, I prefer the stats since his are so low and just spamming assassinate instead.

I WANT to like Shrapnel. I really do. It just feels incredibly underwhelming on heroes though... well, at least it can be used to chip away at towers.

Has anyone else noticed an influx of intentional feeders lately? This seems to coincide with another phenomenon I've noticed, I've stopped getting those "we have taken action against a player you reported" notices.
I think maybe valve has stopped doing anything about reported players and hence why these poisonous scum are flooding my games lately :S

newbee won
Yay, Newbee! Honestly the grand finals sucked ass. They picked the same heroes every match, deathballed into each other, and gave up after 20 minutes of gameplay. It was sad to hear the casters desperately trying to sound excited while the players gave them nothing to work with. And it didn't help that it was one Chinese team going against another Chinese team. OH WELL. At least we're getting Techies. That's something to be happy about, right?

I don't think NewBee really deathballed, they just outrotated VG and destroyed them in a teamfight.... and THEN pushed. It was a shitty final though, I agree.

Faceless Void + Witch Doctor might be one of my new favorite combos. Works really well early on because of the area heal, and then after both hit level 6 the Void can set up perfect death wards. And the best part is that WD can delay his BKB and go for a Scepter first, dramatically increasing his mid-game damage.

Yep, agree on that one I've been playing tons of Void lately, he's just too easy to own with. All you need to do is stay safe on lane, last hit what you can, ignore useless semi-fights early, get a MoM, go roam a bit to gank weak heroes and then snowball as hell. People normally don't try to counter you (pubs, what can you expect) and even if they try to go for you, Void can jump out of nowhere and ult before anyone has a chance to react. I've bought divine rapier in last 5, 6 games with ease. My core - agi boots, MoM, Mjollnir.

I really like void too. Hes just an absolute monster if you give him any room to breath. As strong as Void currently is, I do not think he is unmanageable nor does he need a nerf. HOWEVER.
Nerf Tinker.
Remove Tinker from the game.
Send all Tinker players to work camps.

mid shadow fiend where veno and sf go to the roshpit and sf denies every veno ward to start with 12 souls (=24 bonus damage) Whoa. I've never heard of this before. Can anyone confirm that it works?
