Well, seeing its 6.82b, you could get a radiance much easier due to the rubber banding meta. Anyway, I just don't think it's fair when you are that farm, you can basically 1 v 5 with naga. I agree with what dendi says in twitter. Something must be changed. It just doesn't make sense when you are that much ahead in kills,gold and exp yet you can barely do anything about that naga ratting.  It is just my 2 cents and everyone can have their opinion.  icon_rolleyes.gif

Also, I think pro naga will get the radiance no matter what. If the opposing team spend all their time trying to shut down naga, the other team mate will get alot more farm as space is created. They will also be able to coordinate and protect their naga farm as that is their strategy. That's why I don't really agree of your point where if you let the enemy carry farm a radiance, you deserve to lose. Cause it is very situational, it depends on when the enemy naga get their radiance.

Pro games are a different ballgame altogether. They almost always acquire the Radiance, but having one doesn't mean you automatically win. The same strategy still applies - end before the enemy carry comes online. I remember seeing a game where Arteezy's Naga couldn't do anything because by the time he got his radiance, the enemy team was already pushing high ground, and his illusions didn't have enough hitpoints to stay alive long enough to have an impact. In 6.81, VG's deathball push rendered most late game carries useless.

I think Dendi's opinion is a little biased given Na'vi's default playstyle is face-rushing the enemy. The throw their sprees by diving enemies, and in 6.82 such reckless play is punished heavily if things go south.

Last but not least, I'm not trying to stifle your opinion. I'm just cautioning against the "it's imba it must be nerfed" train of thought. Look through the list of buffs/nerfs and you'll see that IceFrog has a very systematic way of maintaining balance because minor interaction changes can have a major impact on game quality. For example, nerfing Radiance will result in illusion-based carries to go down the agi-stacking path, which in turn will make ET a top pick/ban against them (currently he's reserved against pure agi stackers such as Morphling etc.)

Guys, my GPU is starting to fail. Since i'm piss poor right now, i plan to start a coaching service. How much should i charge?

Another easier method is boosting mmr. I've seen people charge RM25 per 100 mmr(2 hrs of work). For days, I contemplated doing it  but decided not to, because i feel its unethical. Plus its a scam, those people who paid me wont be able to maintain it anyway. I only did it once, for my friend for free because he can't stop whining about solo rmm.

I feel like if i'm coaching, i might be able to help the community.
"Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime."

Actually i segan nak announce dekat facebook, nanti kena kutuk. So, I want honest opinion, do you guys think people would pay for coaching?

Kaizer96 don't paint yourself into a corner. If you choose to coach/stream exclusively in Malay, you'll lose out on a lot of potential customers/viewers.

My suggestion is you do things 2-fold:
1. Start streaming on Twitch with music and no commentary. I see so many streams like these, with titles such as "Ranked EU 5.7k" that manage to get hundreds of viewers (which is decent enough in your case). Stream when there aren't any tournaments going on, and you'll see your subscriber base build up pretty fast.
2. Offer coaching services to players in the SEA region in both English and Malay. I very much doubt your English is bad enough to warrant using Malay exclusively. If you're subscribed to DB+, you can use that to offer additional insight to your trainees.

Arcisal That may happen soon, Pinoys have actually requested for their own server due to ping issues.

Just download replays from TB spammers or Loda to see how to really play him.

Got 2 main ways: Either you build him to fight early (SnY, Skadi, Butterfly) or you build Split-push (Manta, Deso, Radiance). Then you can either Jungle or Lane him.

Good TB players not just about Sunder. A lot of people like to walk around looking for people to ulti cause they like to see their HP bar suddenly full again and type in all-chat "PRO PLAYS". Usually I don't add Sunder until after level 9.

Super OP hero. Fun to farm MMR with.

Better off checking out Zenoth. He plays pubs in SEA, which make his playstyle more applicable to us.

sometimes i wonder how to play support in higher tier when you have no boot and keep buying ward. not even have item for increase hp too.. let say you playing WD, level 3-5 (roaming-stay behind no farm leech a bit onl exp from creeps ) like that while opposite is level 7-8 (midlane roaming now)

hp is like 500-640 like that... people give you 2-3 spells you gg already....

You need to improve on your farming efficiency. As a support, your options for gold are limited, so you must make the most of what you have. Watch replays and see how higher-ranked players keep their farm up despite playing as 5th.

Navi is different now with Puppey gone... I dont understand why they still keep xboct in navi... There are better carries out there that could contribute much more...

I feel what made Na'vi Na'vi was Puppey. Just look at Secret now, and you'll understand that the reason Na'vi was declining was not that Puppey's drafting became weaker, it was that his drafting was becoming more influenced by Xboct.

Yeah agreed navi suk so bad coz of xboct
his hero pool totaly limited
but puppey also in secret the draft still lack of innovation?
they jst use what the player trademark hero mostly.
Need more hero pool in secret lineup

Very hard to draft creatively if your teammates have a limited hero pool. At their level of competition, you have to be extremely good at a specific hero before you can even think of picking him. As LD has pointed out before, sometimes you can see when a player isn't comfortable on a certain hero - he tends not to push the hero to its limits.

Secret's drafts are a little conservative at the moment, but I'm suspecting that's because they're still new and pushing to make an impression. Then again, Puppey may still be stuck in a rut. Only time will tell.
