              well some good advices there mainly on Dark Seer, its a very good pick on pubs because you can farm ez, you are strong in all stages of the game, you have a wombo yolo combo, you are tanky, you are slippery fuck i love that hero (i suck on it tho)

                I said my user image was bad. That video is hilarious as fuck though.

                        Basically, let your idiot teammates die in the early game but keep them alive in the late game.

                                  not sure what you didn't like about it mr. ravasaki, but your 4i8% winrate makes me question your judgement on the matter.

                                      Step one: Cut a hole in the box.

                                      Two: Put your dick in that box.

                                      Three: Get her to open the box.

                                      Four: It's your dick in a box.

                                      1. Everyone else is retarded.
                                      2. Luckily, this means that the other team is retarded too.
                                      3. Game will go 45+ minutes no matter what.
                                      4. Pick a lategame support that can keep your teammates alive (Omni).
                                      5. Find one guy on your team that kinda knows what he's doing and make sure he does well.

                                        and by using omni did he doing well raising his mmr?

                                        ♨Dacheat♨

                                          Yes he says he went up like 1k at the beginning of the video.

                                            do you know his dotabuff?

                                            gonna downdload few video of him

                                            sleave

                                              he went from 2800 to 3700 or something like that by playing omni/dark seer every game
                                              and maybe pugna dont remember

                                              but basically you have to go for that late game supports who can be useful in teamfights instead of CM-like hero who cant keep mates alive and has a single target disable

                                                "game will go 45+ minutes no matter what"

                                                this is true and i fucking hate it, a lot of times my team gets a really big lead and they just afk farm/dive and throw, then we end up playing a 60 min game that should have ended at 20

                                                  I didn't like the presentation of it and he was talking too fast for me to grasp the meaning of his words, after all English is not everyone's native language in here. He knows how to play omni and he is a good player i guess. Where is Lightknight to tell us his opinion about him? ;D

                                                  And something irrelevant. Fucking latest update as of now cost me a secured win. Did this happen to anyone else maybe or was it only me?

                                                                      That's not true, his mmr is barely 3.2k. Just went to watch a game and i have to say that he's a really bad player. Yes, he tries to help his carries farm and try to save them, buy wards etc, but his game motorics, positioning, usage of spells, last hitting, etc are reallly bad, even for this mmr.

                                                                      Still, he's a very funny guy and i like his videos a lot :)

                                                                            http://dotabuff.com/matches/662310651

                                                                            I also watched replay of one of his todays games as he was playing Omniknight, and with exception of some moments by SF and LC, no one else should be even close to 3.9k mmr in skill. Cmon, did u even see how Sven and Omni played vs solo Mirana, missed TONS of cs and let her dominate that lane. Thats not how cca 4k people play. Also positioning and spell usage is far from skill required to play in this bracket. It's more like low 3k.

                                                                            http://dotabuff.com/matches/696787170

                                                                              Hopeless

                                                                                    Dire Wolf

                                                                                      Looking over my last page of matches, only 5 went longer than 40 minutes, and one of those barely did, it was 40:13. Here's breakdown of my last 20 matches by times:

                                                                                      0-30 minutes: 5
                                                                                      30-40 minutes: 10
                                                                                      40 + minutes: 5
                                                                                      Average match time: 37 minutes

                                                                                      That's why I think this doesn't *really* apply in the new meta in the 3k's, maybe in 2k it does, I don't know. But there is a huge difference between a game deciding team fight at 30 mins and one at 45, which is where big fights will be in a ~40 min game vs a ~50 min game. Look at the top win rates patch 6.81 and it seems to support early and mid game heroes being strong. Necro, abadon, omni, wk, lich, zeus, venge, wd, cent, brew. All of those guys make significent impact mid game, while a few are also strong late, like necro and omni and wk, they aren't really stronger late than mid game like a hard carry is, they just don't drop off. But they are also beasts mid game, give wk a armlet, treads and bkb at ~20 minutes and he is a beast.

                                                                                      Plus it's also quite rare that my games have 4 hard carries any more. Usually it's a ton of mid game carries and a couple hard supports, like bloodseeker, invoker, maybe a lion or wd.

Still, that Omni game i watched was far from 3.8k in skill, it was a lot closer to 3k straight.
