In episode 154 we discuss TI ticket announcements, Adam's RD2L run, Dark Seer, offlane, Pudge, winrates across mmr brackets and much more!

This weeks episode is actually last weeks episode! If the trends seem a little out of date, then that's because they probably are! Many apologies for the lack of episodes the last couple weeks, I didn't have any internet. Back to normal now though! https://discord.gg/rgV6KwD

It's Dota 2 patch time again! that means another long patch review episode! We digest and discuss the biggest changes including Tinker, neutral items, Helm, Edge, Mage Slayer, Clinkz, Chen, Lich, Dawn, Pudge, OD and much more!  https://discord.gg/rgV6KwD

This week we come armed with a stat corner, AM offlane and a disassembled Dragon Lance! Adam's winning, Stan won a Tinker game, Marco won a Nemistice in 7 minutes, patch is confirmed! It's all looking good in the Dotaverse!

We finally reached our self-hyped fake milestone of 150 episodes. To celebrate we flame each others worst heroes! We also discuss which heroes we would like to see back in the meta and what the hero would need to be playable.

Every year we gather to discuss the Battle Pass, and every year we get annoyed about the barrage of community backlash to having to pay for hats. I promise there is some actual content in here; 11:45 for game mode discussion, 63:00 for stat corner on stun duration!  

This week we take a look back at how the carry and hard support meta games shifted throughout the Animajor, and where it has left us in our pubs and in the pros. We also compare our per-minute records on Dotabuff and wonder how on earth games at TI4 were 15 minutes long!  https://discord.gg/rgV6KwD

We also talk about party games vs solo games, have a Stat Corner on armour (UK Spelling don't @me) and finally discuss the hero with the best winrate in Divine+ Dota, the spider herself, Mrs Brood! https://discord.gg/rgV6KwD 

Stat Corner now has a theme tune! Marco has to turn off voice lines to avoid the reality of playing the genocidal maniac that is Luna! He shares thoughts on the strength of the hero.

This week's stat corner is spell cooldowns! https://discord.gg/rgV6KwD  

We debut the TheMagicT's new Statistic Segment, this week talking movement speed. We also discuss why carry's win-rates vary more than supports, whether it's better to have a wide or narrow hero pool when trying to improvement, Beastmaster Aghs, Drow and Blademail.
