How was your day today? - DotA 2 Edition - Words - 2014-01-22
Today I finally leveled 5 times to open the chest they gave with the tutorial chests some time ago

Awful day. Picked Enigma, landed a couple nice black holes, pushed 2 towers basically alone, we won all our teamfights early but no one wanted to fucking push. We finished without getting a single t2 tower
It's been 5 days since I've won a match in solo queue. I'm getting more impatient with people with stupid builds though. Most of those loses are my fault anyway, but at least they motivate me to try and play better.

What do you guys recommend when playing PL, auto select summoned units on or off? It's kinda useful to have it on when farming but when I join a team fight it's kinda annoying because if I move back new illusions will follow me and stop attacking what I want them to attack.
Or is there a way to toggle it without having to go to options?

I recommend having it off. IIRC you can keybind a function that lets you give a command to all your units at once which helps with controlling illusions

Hmm... kind of sucks because for Junglers, AM or anything that buys Manta and most mids I prefer having it on; while Dark Seer, PL, Morph and Shadow Demon feels better to have it off.
I do have keybinds to control myself, summoned units and all units though; it's just that I need different set up for every other hero :/. Wonder how hard it would be to get used to just one setup.

Even though sometimes I make some bad decision while supporting. I think I've improved a lot.
And I really need to get into the carry scene. Because Gawdam sometimes I get reaaaaally bad carries on my matches.

It's a terrible Catch-22. If you play a good support you still have the chance of a terrible carry. If you play carry, you can't be a great support. :c

So, what's a good build on Morphlin?
I've been building
Aquila -> boots -> R. Health -> P.Threads -> Perseverance -> Ethereal blade -> Linken's
While:
Q->W->Q->E->Q->R->Q->E->W->E->W....

Depends heavily on your lane, if i'm safe-laning with morph i get morph at level 1 and morph strength into agility for farming purposes. Most of the time i rush linken's though and use it to farm an etheral blade.
If i'm mid i might get waveform if i fear ganks, but i'll still be getting and maxing morph over adaptive strike.

It depends on your lane and how well you farm... and if you get kills. If I get first blood or some kills I'd rather rush Linken's or even Treads than Aquila but it's a great item if you're just farming creeps. Also, heroes that go for Linken's usually rush it because it's what allows them to farm safely until they get their core items. Boots or upgraded boots > Linken's > Core item. Note that Eblade isn't even core if you don't get it at a decent time or depending on what heroes you're going against; if you can't get it 'early' or there are too many tanky heroes I'd rather skip it and go for Manta>Butterfly/Skadi> Heart/Satanic or damage item... and just go for some splitpush action.
Skill build I'd leave Adaptive Strike last, ulti at 9 and 10 so that you can max Waveform and Morph right away, which make your farming easy and safe.
Related to your post right above, hard carries like Morphling, Medusa, Antimage, Spectre and the likes depend, partly, on how well you farm. They need a lot of farm time and gold to actually carry so you need to get a decent early game and a lot of room in the midgame... and it's your responsibility to find or make room yourself to find it. Most important item is a tp so that you can get to any lane you can get farm on safely; if you get caught and you die it's time and gold you won't spend farming.
I think that carries like Lifestealer, even Luna and Gyro that just need a BKB to be useful during midgame teamfights, are much much easier to play because they can actually join teamfights and do lots of damage without that many items. Their early game is also nice and there's a lot of potential for early kills. Playing carry is all about farming and decision making; knowing when to go for a solo kill, when to dive, when to join a teamfight and when to hide in jungle safely farming neutral creeps. The second part is the hardest one.

I'm loving those buffs and nerfs.
The two games I played today I was bad. Terribly bad. I don't know what's wrong with me.

Another hero? Be thankful for the 100 nerfs phoenix got since his release, he was such bullshit on release.
