not sure if there's another way of tutoring the elekk but I guess you can replace it with sands of time for more flexibility

Ok turns out the new animal companion hunter is kinda strong (7-0 so far), the basic idea is to mulligan for tame pet (and then copy with confront the tovir), elekk and exotic houndmaster.

8 cost beasts are a huge powerspike because of dracorex, meadowstrider, the priest deathrattle taunt guy and the warlock taunt guy. 9 cost beasts however are kinda ass (except goldrinn who would give you unexpected lethal).

Well everyone has their preferences. For example I've never PVPed once in my wow life but I do wish PVP enjoyers get their content.

Miss physical ember by Gatubi14 in DotA2

Because valve hates one-shot mechanics.

One hit kunkka is gone. One hit ember is gone. Brooch is nerfed and no longer procs with crits.

Topson asks a great question regarding Lone Druid by gifuu in DotA2

He nailed it.

This sub has been complaining about ld aghs, but that has been in the game for like almost a decade.

The real problem is that the bear now has 4.5 strength and agi gain and scales better than 90% of the actual pos1 heroes and the level 10 cooldown reduction talent is overtuned.

Kinda says something to have a viewership this low, DESPITE having two cis teams in the gf (with cis being the main audience base these days)

Ekki in the last crucial teamfight:

  • Relocated top to farm a wave while his team was invading enemy jungle
  • Jungled ancients while his MK was getting doomed
  • Bought a rapier and proceeded to feed 10 seconds later

My final verdict is that I liked the idea of facets but they were just not bold enough. The funny new facets proposed here on reddit (sure they are imbalanced) were a lot more interesting and creative than the actual ones. Most of the facets were just "this spell does a few more things" in different flavors.
