1 of the satisfy match. 5 person party.
Gank, cover ,fast push. Finish in 30 min.

This one nearly lose. Drag too much. Qop drop in late game, left 4 vs 5.
both side got ppl play disarm item, abyssal blade.
Long time not play windrunner, miss 3 powershot for kill blow.

My windrunner seldom go hex.
I feel that in most match, those carry will get bkb becos most of the time each side will have 1 to 2 disable.
Plus hex is 1 of the item that very hard to get because of it need high price item to combine.
Compare to orchid, which can combine from small piece, it is easier to get orchid than hex. Hex not always better than orchid. With the price of hex, I can get orchid plus Phase boots. That can make windrunner very effective in mid time. (Most of the time when I get orchid, none of opponent will have bkb or linken so it is very effective to lock them down and kill it) If I go for hex, it will be late game which most of heroes will either have linken or bkb or some even got manta already. Orchid can give windrunner enough mana pool and mana regeneration for spamming the skill.

With orchid, windrunner can 1vs1 most of the hero in mid time. Those hero that always like to farm solo and feel that they can get away the gank becos they got blink, windwalk or stun will die in your hand if you gank it. Just a proper shackle then focus fire, after 3 sec u can start silence it. Seldom got hero can tank that much in mid time.(Centaur is exception as the return is deadly to windrunner so don't focus fire on centaur in any fight)

Actually for void, I only worry about his ulti, his ulti can break my 3rd(I on 3rd b4 he ulti, later he ulti, he still can dmg me. His ulti can stop my 3rd skill effect?)
Actually Slark are more danger than void in that match. Without void ulti, void cannot win me in 1vs1 at all.
Slark can win me in 1vs1. This match if Qop play her part well, we no need to drag so long.
She always dun have enough mana for ulti and other skill in teamfight.

No need both, if only to vs ursa, all you need is dps and lifesteal item, no need orchid or hex at all.
Windrunner 3rd is deadly to ursa.
The top killer of windrunner is NA. Second I consider lion.

I believe with shackle 2 and silence 1, if my team still cannot win the teamfight, 1 hex also will not help much. With that price I better go DPS which can help more in teamfight.
A lot of people feel always forget that windrunner can tank the physical dmg, they keep feeling that windrunner same like other int hero which when you hit her, she will use windrun to run away but I feel that windrun skill should use as tank for physical dmg(5 sec invincible) which can make her to become one of the danger killer in teamfight.
With windrun, those ppl that without disable and heavy nuke will not able to kill u easily. Even in gank, if you see it, you can on windrun then teleport back. (1 example is bloodseeker ulti you, you on windrun then teleport back, as long as bs don't have force staff or silence you, you should not having any problem with bs ulti)

last time I open crystal chest, 10 key, got 3 horn, 3 ward, 2 sniper item and 1 sk item and 1 unusual courier.
If it give me 10 ward, I gonna crazy.

hehe, windrunner no need to use ward to kill the sand king.
simply powershot will force it to come out by himself.

You can check the replay before going to report. With that you can learn how the ppl doing in with 5 person in level 1.
I see this b4.
Whole match all 5 missing at start, later a msg show that they had kill the roshan.
After that, they direct 3 person push 1 lane.
Finish the match in short time.

When you party with full friends, there is not enough, you have to train more all together so that your side can have a better heroes lineup (tanker, carry, disable, ganker, strong aoe ulti) and also better tacit. (eg. you got 2 stunner at 1 lane, there should be 1 stun first, after the period end, another only start stun, if both don't have tacit, both will waste it and stun at same time.)

When you full 5vs5, most of the time opponent will also full 5 friends so it is even harder than solo match.

Yesterday I play with most of our team member(bone still not in our team yet that why his play style still not match well with our style).
This match overall both side got good heroes lineup.

Our magnus play very well. He blink charge those enemy back to us then ulti. We still got sand king can stun and ulti plus riki smoke. That is totally rape.
We lucky able to gank them a lot at start, if not, later when they get gem, that is over on our side. 1 gem can counter 2 of our hero plus clear our ward so actually I feel that this kind of lineup still not good. (I always feel that the best is only 1 invis hero and non of other hero going to get shadow blade. I don't like opponent get 1 gem can counter 2 and more heroes + ward.)

Actually most of the teamfight is our 4 vs their 5. Our bone farm quite long as you can see most of our last hit quite few.(I am the fewest-39 hit) while bone 236 hit in 37 min. If opponent play better than us, we mostly will lose cos it is hard to win when 4vs5 in teamfight.

You all that facing problem got other ppl sharing your internet? If someone in your house use ppstream then you mostly will lag.
You all connect to SEA server or other region?
I use streamyx (last time 512kb, now 4mb)
always got ping 33ms, sometime 5ms only.
The worst go 66ms

Yesterday have a nice match with team people. (5 person party vs 5)

We play aggressive way. Gank in whole match.
36 min, we manage to kill them 63 while our side die 22 in their hand. (Kill 3:Death 1 ratio) Our last hit overall quite low cos all only go to gank, seldom got people stay and farm forever.

Overall, I feel that opponent have a better hero lineup than us.
They got strong aoe nuke, 3 stunner, melee cleave king and high dmg shadow.
Our side overall should not able to tank their strong aoe nuke but we able to gank them very a lot and keep pressing them hard.

With 2 blinker(item) 1 tanker, 1 support, 1 carry, we manage to win in them in most of the teamfight in battle.
I like this kind of playstyle rather than those pub ppl that keep farming for whole match.

Below is another match from lose become win in the end. (2 person party + other outside 3 ppl)
http://dotabuff.com/matches/173747515
Our heroes cannot win them in teamfight at all. Later we start losing rax.
You can see how strong the juggernaut and luna. We only got 1 sniper which able to fight them but he cannot tank both of their hit. Luna with satanic, manta and butterfly is deadly.

My magnus had to blink in ulti then charge and nuke to let sniper see which is real luna when she manta. After she left half hp, necro use ulti to finish her while dazzle use shallow grave to protect sniper. In the end, we win a teamfight and direct push mid lane finish the throne.

I also receive the notification about someone that I reported will take action by them.
Too bad, it not let me know which person kena and also on which game id.

I hope valve will show me which player taken action and for which game id so that at least my report is not waste.
I report a few but so far only get 1 notification. Dunno who is the lucky one.

Windrunner is 1 of the hero that can counter TA effectively.

yup, windrunner will not have any problem facing TA alone 1vs1.

Try, windrunner / silencer.
