I can't stop pulling!! The greed is too much. Them double pulls are too good.
On a serious note though. How do I deal with Bristleback who is solo offlaning while I am playing Lion. I drain his mana but I can't zone him. So he ends up getting all of the XP T.T

How can you not zone Bristleback out as Lion? Literally all it take is lvl 2 before you start spamming spike + manadrain on him. He is just a walking melee creep without mana. Even if you take some damage in the process, you leave him without mana for a long term which is way more important than your puny & worthless pos 5 healthbar.

Go in a lobby and pull until you don't make any mistakes. That is the best and probably the only way to practice pulling.


There is one thing in dota that I know is my biggest weakness and it is: going total rambo, never backing, full navi style. Like but really, I often have a really agressive playstyle.

I remember a Bloodseeker game where I dived in the enemy fountain at the 7th minutemark. And that isn't the only blood game where I did that.

Well sometimes I play super *****, afk farmerino too but when I get farmed I will start playing hyper agressive with my farmed hero which sometimes lead in big throws :-)))

I have the opposite problem of playing too passive, ancient Chinese doto style and farming until I have all my items. So far its done me ok-ish, I win about 60-70% of games because I manage to get farm while pushing, and most of the time I simply have more money than the enemy, therefore I kill them and win.

However, it sadly doesn't work if my team is losing too hard by themselves, so I tend to mix my playstyle with heroes that have the option to fight early, like Phantom Lancer, Sven and Spectre, helping my team when I see the chance, while happily farmimg and slaughtering creeps when we aren't fighting.

So, gere's my question.

How do you deal with Death Prophet This patch? I've gotten tips by some people here, but even then, I can't seem to deal with her. She has high narural ms, almost always buys euls, and spirit siphon on top of that almost ensures you can never run away from her. That leaves manfighting her, which is almost impossible when her Ult is up, and very hard due to her constant Hp regen plus her kiting ability.

You have to kill her early. She has problems before she gets her first 2 items (usually eul's and aether lens/octarine or something), so gank her over and over again. It's hard for DP to comeback.

Yeah, what he said. DP doesn't play well from behind, so if you stifle early pushes and deny her map control, she wilts.

If you play as support gank the Death Prophet at mid. She often is an easy kill, and she needs a good early game. The second option is by playing around her ultimate. If you know it is on cooldown push lanes. Also if she uses her ult try to run away or to avoid it as much as possible. Often a nuker is good to damage death prophet heavily at the start of a teamfight so she will be to scared to actually do her ult.

If she gets good early game try to depush when possible why not dieing. Try to extend the game so your carry can kill her later in the game. Also bkb does a lot against her. It doesn't stop the ult but it stops the slow, eul, crypt swarm etc.

Most dp don't get a bkb and that is another way to punish her.
