    My very first game of Dota like 20 odd years ago I was introduced to it by a friend’s older brother who played it and said this was the greatest WC3 custom map. We played him 1v3 and he proceeded to pick Nightstalker and absolutely violated us for half an hour into a solo win.

    Good to see that an unchecked Nightstalker is still a menace all these years later.

      it’s funny, NS has fifth highest ban rate at this tournament but his win rate is only okay. recently we’ve seen a ton of NS just get nothing done because of the limitations of the hero.

      but falcons basically actively drafted into making the NS as effective as possible.

        Spirit are just also extremely good at abusing a vision advantage, always have been. Good old times of Miposhka Treant etc.
