Our guy hasn't been active for 2 weeks, I'm starting to get worried.
nth for Traxex is the best waifu
First for Sheever and daily reminder that if you don't think Sheever is OUR GIRL it's because you have a pathological hate of women.
Would you lick her armpits?
>>145494003
can someone please explain this meme to me. i don't get it.
First for Juggernaut and daily reminder that if you don't think Yurnero is OUR SWORDSMAN it's because you have a pathological hate of samurai.
PIT LORD CONFIRMED
WHERE ARE THE ESPORTS?
>other team picks bristle
>clearly solo offlane
>pick safelanedusa
huehuehue
Will Artour quit dota if Secret doesn't make it to TI?
I know I'm shit. How do I get better other than don't die so much your team wishes you would just leave.
http://www.dotabuff.com/players/76382816
Yes, this is my account. People can be this bad. All the matches that happened before 2016 I was living in Japan so the lag was pretty bad playing from my crap laptop.
>>145491683
tide was always trash
the only reason teams pick it is because of tower defense and he can farm easily.
outside of that he is trash and provides nothing else aside from ravage
How the fuck do you win games if one of your players or two are just outright fucking sĀ“tupid
>>145494570
artour will keep riding on teams back like he always did.
you clearly don't understand how esports works. no one gives a fuck about prizes if you have celebrities on your team, they draw viewers and those viewers watch commercials.
therefore secret is making more stable income rather than winning cash prizes that gets taxed anyway
>>145494579
You have under 500 games and your favorite heroes are kinda trash
Your winrate is positive so you're not doing that bad really
>>145494674
Identify the enemy stupids and feed upon them
>>145494880
How much worth can it be to have rtz stream on PandaTV? Kemal can't make money out of Secret that way.
Game coordinator currently being updated ?
tfw you're core naga and you ult to save your own 20k networth life and the supports get mad because it stopped them getting a kill
tfw they call your 800 gpm 1k mmr trash
tfw there's 5 nagas so that is infact the entire team and everyone else is just there to create space for the first 17 mins
>>145495183
yeah pit lord with hats and LC comic incoming
what happened to coordinator? i hope he is ok
>>145494483
GTFO SLARDAR ;(
>>145494674
get good at the game
>>145495221
You could have spent the entire game using the Ulti as a anti BKB tool.
Instead you decided to wiff your dick and don't communicate.
Stop being bad.
>>145495221
If you play a fun-vacuum hero like Naga or Tinker, don't expect anyone to thank you even if you're winning
In fact expect to be reported
>>145495401
>>145495417
shut up support cucks
>>145495417
But Naga gaming is fun...
>>145495496
reported for holding 9 players hostage for 65 minutes
>>145495031
arteezy is a huge draw, he got about similar the draw of dendi
10k viewers on twitch is alot of money
does anyone have that oddshot from sheever's stream where she goes to the toilet and you can hear her pissing like a fucking racehorse?
>>145495898
sheever creepers really are the worst kind of people
>>145495841
I wonder if Twitch actually feels upset about famous Dotards not streaming there anymore.
>>145495841
Yeah but how much he gets on PandaTV?
He doesn't even stream that often since they made that change.
>>145495898
>>145496110
Arteezy is a wannabe nigger and EE is a MAL baby.
Nothing of value was lost.
>>145496110
of course, any company should upset that they lose to competitors
>>145495994

>>145496584
What do you mean by this?
The fact is, ODPixel is a confirmed and notorious /d2g/ poster, whether you like it or not.
>>145496681
Everyone on Team Secret streams on PandaTV now.

The fall of dota 2 isn't caused by overwatch, retard, it's Team Fortress 2 all over again.
The ever increasing amount of cosmetics just makes performance worse with each patch. The game is so full of bloat and stale that people stop caring.
>>145497702
Step 1. Denial
>>145497702
also the constant patches that encourage 5 manning there is no novelty in being a high skill player anymore
>>145498208

I need help. I think i'm going to build a cheap pc for various game (i don't care about recent AAA games). Mine can run it but I had to repair it so often, it's just shit now. I need a motherboard, gpu, cpu
preferably intel nvidia
<500ā¬
>>145498358
that's not the point.
at the time dendi was a rare breed, nowdays you have at least 1 dendi on every team.
the novelty of being a dominant mid player is gone.
most carry heroes can't reach their full potential anymore since games are so fast paced

REMAKE FOR KUNKKA AGHANIMS:
>No longer pulls enemies / starts at kunkka
>Now makes kunkka's ghost ship be manned by a crew of skeletal ghost pirates.
>While sailing, the ghost pirates fire cannons to port and starboard, aiming at heroes, creeps & towers. Cannonballs deal 100 damage and stun for 1 second in an aoe each
>Upon crashing, 6 skeleton pirates jump ashore. They are uncontrollable frenzied melee units with 500 hp 35 damage and last 30 seconds and attack in the direction of the enemy ancient.
>Ghost pirates have a passive skill: Cursed Immortality
>Upon dying they reincarnate to full HP after 3 seconds. Does not apply to their duration running out
REMAKE FOR OMNIKNIGHT AGHANIMS:
>No longer affects buildings / gives global aoe / increased duration to guardian angel.
>Now gives omniknight a new subskill: Resurrection.
>Active, 100 mana cost, 20 cooldown, 100 cast range
>Whenever an ally dies within 1600 aoe, their bounty is held back and they leave a corpse for 20 seconds. Omniknight can revive them to 100% HP and mana by praying at their corpse as a 5 second channeling spell. Gold/xp is awarded and corpse disappears if duration expires while omni isn't channeling, or that player buys back.
NEW AGHANIMS FOR TERRORBLADE:
Aghanims added for Terrorblade:
>Reflection becomes a passive aura that affects enemy heroes/illusions within 900 range and for 2.5/3.5/4.5/5.5 seconds after they leave the AoE
>Reflection aura is carried by terrorblade's illusions
TWEAK FOR TINKER AGHANIMS:
>Now also improves March of the Machines
>Heroes struck by march are revealed with truesight for 20 seconds
Remake for Omniknight
>removed from the game.
Remake for Kunkka
>removed from the game
Remake for Techies
>removed from the game
There, fixed.
>>145500534
>>145500751
there is no way EG lose in open qualis, they might have 90% winrate against an ORGANIZED 5-6k stack, maybe only 80% against semi-pro teams such as ixmike's

if you can kill his carry you can kill omni lol

>dive tier 3 to try and rax, kill their 3 carries but your carries die as well, supports back off
>omni revives all three of his carries and they go push your ancient while your team waits 80 seconds to respawn
Something as powerful as a free revive needs a larger mana cost and a longer cooldown. That's a 100 second cooldown minimum ability. And I'd say 300 mana as well.

>>145505439
Hey rude he won like the Summit 2 and 3 or something like that!
i wonder how much the Aui buyout was for EG
hopefully one day we get to know the numbers, i imagine it wasnt cheap
>>145504204
hows omni going to reivve all 3 of your carries?
it has 20 cooldown and the corpses only last 20 seconds and its a 5 second channeling spell
he can only reincarnate one person at a time
>no heroes never die hero
>>145500789
Increase cooldown on resurrect by like a minute.
Get rid of reincarnate for skeletons, make them do something else.
Terrorblade is completely broken scrap the whole idea.
Just make march have true sight for the area it affects, not for things it hits.
>>145505867
I vaguely recall some kind of Hero that respawned on death as an ult... can't quite remember his name though...
>>145494138
Joke ran it's course a year ago and now he wants to be some legit life coach or some other crazy shit.
Let him die.

How do I make ta relevant in the lategame?
>>145505958
>Terrorblade is completely broken scrap the whole idea.
are you pretending that some shitty meme aghanims upgrade to a hero's Q instead of ultimate would make a useless trash tier hero into a competitive powerhouse?
>>145506427
that meme lasted for like two weeks
>he doesn't go aghs + mijonir + pike on Drow
don't you want to have fun anon?
>>145506427
The Mirana Aghs upgrade is one of the worst forced Aghs ideas I've ever read. It is just there to patch her shitty fucking design up in the least innovative way possible
>here have da free nuges :_D
>>145506598
would be the same deal with a terrorblade reflection aura
>oh shit terrormeme has his aghanims we lose
then 2 weeks later
>lmao u spent 4200 gold to slow me by 25% for 2 more seconds and 50 more damage than you'd get by just pressing Q without it lmao

How To Stop Memeing And Start Playing
>>145506820
>an item so fucking bad icefrog was able to slap 100% attack speed on it and its still bad
whats next
mjollnir gives you +20 attack speed for 5 seconds every time its static charge procs?
drums active attack speed from +25 to +50?
veil of discord now gives -50 attack speed to enemies?
memethorn, already the highest dps item in the entire game by a mile, goes from 1.35x multiplier to 1.45x multiplier and is still shit?
>>145506915
i dont know getting hit by an unkillable illusion that does 100% of your damage while slowing your move and attack speed as long as you are in a 900 aoe of tb and then persisting for 5 seconds after you leave the aoe is pretty fucking crazy
hey guys i recently started playing clockwork and hes super fun and effective in game, can someone give me a tl;dr on how to play him? items/skills etc.
>>145507272
except that without aghanims he already has an unkillable illusion that does 100% of your damage while slowing your move and attack speed for 5 seconds after terrorblade presses Q
all this does is make it last longer if TB chases you and lets him throw disposable illusions at you to trigger it, like a shittier radiance that he can't use to farm
I'll give you guys a nice memebuild

>>145507883
>Why don't we have a GLOBAL DAMAGE REDUCTION, GLOBAL FUCKING HASTE AND GLOBAL FUCKING STUN THAT SCALES OFF 4.0 STR
M A D M A N
>>145502278
The only problem I see with bloodstone is that its a purely defensive item on Medusa that requires lots of successful fighting (and no dying) to become useful and the later you get it the less fighting it'll be exposed to
Still better than manta

cute
but has a dickthat probably means we approve right?
I'm fucking sick of being 2.6k and I have no idea how to get out of here.
It's not like any games are close. They're almost always stomps. Either we stomp or we get stomped, and there is improvement to be made by me sure but I cannot 1v9 no matter how good I am and sometimes I can't lose no matter how bad I am.
It's just an off and on pattern of shitty fucking teammates followed by godlike teammates.
>>145510908

Might be cool, but seems a little lazy as far as design goes.
Personally I would like to see it function kind of like Cold Feet, where if the person effected doesn't move away from the point of casting they will be rooted into the ground (literally) for a couple seconds. This could be used in tangent with his ultimate and several items for some good combo lockdowns.

These are the same people, anyone looks like a shit player when they're doing badly and tilted because they have a shitty lane and nobody cares
Of course some people are legitimately awful but you can never tell until you give them a chance sadly

start lifting
pick tinker
go jungle at level 1 with iron talon
cut cliff trees, stack 2 camps at the same time while hitting and iron taloning big creeps, spam march
get soul ring via courier
keep spamming march
march at 1/3/5/7, laser at 2/12/13/14, missiles at 4/8/9/10, rearm at 6/11/16
done correctly and efficiently, you should be able to sell back iron talon at 7:00 to 7:15 and buy your finished boots of travel and teleport home. Then teleport around a few times to get bottle. Then set immediately to vacuuming farm AND spamming missiles to contribute to fights. Missile spam from 7 minute travels completely wrecks most people so take advantage of that to zone out their carry and snag some kills and win some fights
arcane boots as your first item after bottle
then you have the choice of proceeding directly to greaves OR getting earlier blink dagger. Blink is more defensive and lets you farm in an unsafe map, greaves wins you fights and pushes once you've got it
once you get greaves or blink, get the other one next
after greaves+blink, pick up aghanims OR get an item to counter mass blademails (euls / octarine / bkb)
now you're slotted out and you need to replace bottle and swap it in/out when at fountain with whatever last item you pick up (sheep, octarine or bloodstone)
the easiest way to win games is to remember that ANY TIME YOU BLINK IN YOU DIE. If you get cocky and go aggressive and blink in to laser someone to death at melee range, their ally will be waiting in fog and blink stun you and you ded. Your job is to spam missiles from fog of war and stay in fog of war and not expose yourself. Even blinking in for a 5 man laser bounce in a teamfight is usually not worth it
you should only use sheep when someone is trying to solo split push your towers and backdoor you or whatever. So if a 4000 hp carry tries to sit on top of your tower alone with mass regen and just soak up missiles while he kills barracks, you can stop that with sheep.

ck tiny dk and viper are good ways to farm mmr
ck is one of the best hero farmers in the game and is also a monster in the late game if you get items
tiny is as good at farming heroes as ck but with aghs can farm creeps too, probably scariest hero to see pushing your t3/rax in the late game
dk and viper both rely on your team but they do a good job as an anchor for your team to fight around, they are also both good at pushing towers, dk does it better though
avoid supporting if you have the option to do it
farming heroes is better than farming neutrals, people tilt and if the enemy thinks they are unfairly stuck in this bracket they will tilt harder

what's good aquila
>>145516412
I'm going to blow your mind, but iron branches aren't a good gold sink even if you can bundle +4 stats into an item slot, not for 300 gold
there are WAY more high impact uses for gold in early game small items than stats. Wraith band, wand, null talisman & bracer & blight stone & ring of shitsilus are all inefficient and low impact items compared to super powerful small stuff like poor mans shield, urn, magic stick, infused memedrops, iron talon, tp scroll, orb of venom, smoke, dust, wind lace, wards, bottle, arcane boots, etc
the only time iron branches are actually worth it is when you can use their active ability. Hell, if magic wand let you spend its charges to plant trees one at a time, it would be a better item
item slots are WAY too fucking valuable in 6.88 to waste on minor amounts of stats or damage or armor. Ring of protection sucks ass, while urn is half a dagon in damage, disables blinks, spams heals on allies and is still efficient on stats.

ability to eat every item fucking when
while keeping the same idea as moonshard - gain only 1/2 the stats and lose some passive bonus

>>Youāve definitely experienced a lot with different team makeups, whatās the most important trait you now look for in your fellow teammates?
>I think the most important trait you can find in a teammate is being trustworthy. Initially when Arteezy and Universe left it really broke the trust we had when we built the roster. We had all committed to playing alongside one another and to solve any problems that may arise. The team really wanted to have that back to back performance and win a second TI. That was the dream. After DotaPit and Arteezy/Universe left, I felt that they took the easy way out and gave up on that hard working mentality that we were supposed to have. Thatās really disappointing because itās like they gave up on me and the team we were all committed to

I've always wanted to be Tresdin's squire. I always enjoy fantasizing about entering the fountain with her after a long battle and slowly removing her armor, starting at the helmet and making my way down to her boots. The embarrassment I feel doing this in front of other female heroes only adds to the allure of the situation. She sits down on a stool and commands me to kneel down and remove her boots one at a time. "Is that a boner?" Rylai says. Akasha licks her lips, Rylai giggles, and Shendelzare glares at me. I try to cover it up out of embarrassment, but Tresdin kicks my hands away. "You haven't finished yet." I don't understand because I had already removed her armor, but after she gives me a look I realize that she wants me to remove her shoes as well. I take off her shoes and reveal her gorgeous feet, surprisingly soft despite her being a strong warrior, and extremely sweaty. "Lick the sweat off my feet, squire," she commands me. I hesitate for a moment and look over to the other girls. They all start giggling at me and whispering. Then I feel Tresdin's foot forced into my mouth with the other one covering my nose. The smell and taste of her sweaty feet causes my raging boner to grow even more. "Alright, squire, stand up and remove your clothes." Although embarrassed, I take all my clothes off. Suddenly I feel my position swapped with that of Shendelzare. Suddenly I'm lying beneath Akasha and Rylai, who had both taken their boots off, and were pressing their feet against my member. "No," Tresdin said, "He's mine." She runs over and gets on top of me. It's only now that I realize that she's holding Aghanim's Scepter, and I understand that nobody will be able to interfere with us. Her technique gets more and more intense until I am unable to hold back. I cum inside her pussy with the force of a hundred megacreeps. She gets off of me, and as I lay there quivering in pleasure she gets dressed and begins to chuckle. "Only 9 inches? Pathetic."

These players never realize items choices can be game losing decisions do they? They just see a k/d and assume that's the measurement of worth.
>>145518692
that's precisely why it got nerfed. it's supposed to be a range increase item, not a cheap stat item that's good on melee heroes like meepo. they wanted it to be used for its intended purpose.
>>145515452
This was my last game.
I tried really fucking hard to win this but NP was just feeding solo every 5 minutes, Invoker was just one shotting anyone who got caught out, and in general people were just getting picked off hard as fuck.
I only picked Slark because the enemy team picked so much bullshit and it mostly worked until my team just started solo feeding one by one as they were pushing. I mean I tried to farm where I could but it was hard as fuck, I called out wards that took minutes to be dewarded. I dunno I just don't think i could have done much.
Died 3 times right at the end there, once because Naga ulted just as I tried to jump on someone while DP had ult up, then buyback and dieback while Treant just ran away and Naga hid in fountain.
Why does Invoker have such a bullshit wombo combo. Fucker needs no items at all to do 2k magic and pure damage every 30 seconds.

>>145525712
freeing up inventory slots while adding new bonuses i guess
plenty of heroes would buy aghs octarine refresher or armlet blademail heart
>put ward on enemy highground as soon as tower falls
>10 wards clumped right there
Funniest shit I've seen in dota all month. I asked if anyone had trouble with wards and the enemy Pudge immediately started yelling to report Bane.
Best part was at least 6 of them were observers, and my PA got all of them.

Here's a less retarded idea.

They cost 1k each, give +5 to Str/Agi/Int and are consumables purchased from the Secret Shop. No limit to how many you can buy or use.
>>145526150
Lotus orb reflection acts EXACTLY LIKE if the shelled target cast the spell themselves. The spell doesn't have aghs unless the shelled target has aghs, and they are considered the source of the spell for all purposes.

So I just started playing dota this week, mostly playing supports
Why do dota players play so retardedly? I fought against a riki + bounter hunter comp and so we had a lot of dust and sentries and even a gem at some point and nobody would group up
They just kept getting picked off
Then at the end, when we could have one, my bristleback literally dived into their ancient turrets to try and chase a kill.
?????
why do people chase so far in dota? and nobody ever ends the games. they stand near the ancient and fuck around. 1 hour of my life wasted
does it get better?

why veil of discord instead of a pipe?

>>145534494
needs treads+wand for HP , or vit booster
>>145534736
veil gives lots of stats, armor, regen, damage, and a active magic amplifier for 50 mana
the build i had in mind was boots, vod into hood in terms of item progression since i think its better than going hood into vod
>>145534846
i thought about it and decided to go straight to point booster for aghs because vit only gives me few items that necro needs at least thats what i think
Hood of Defiance (1725) + Veil of Discord (2240) + Chainmail (550) = Gold Hemmed Shroud (4515)

>50 mana 1200 range 900 radius 8 duration (16 debuff duration) 20 cooldown
>>145535281
Way too good.
Make it centered around the user instead of target area and instead of just making a magic barrier make it block damage to all allied heroes in the fog and once enough damage is dealt the fog disappears.
>>145535281
None of you people know how to into balance.
40% magic resist on top of a fuckton of armor that also gives you a shitton of stats is just ridiculous. That's essentially 15 armor right there on a 4.5k gold item. That alone is absolutely ridiculously good.
>>145535968

I always thought Dragon Knight was a bit awkward of a hero, he's not well defined to be a hard carry with his bad stats and not super strong ultimate.

Nah, it's late and I already did the yardwork earlier today. It's not like I've done nothing besides that.
I mean that took me like 10 minutes to make. I like to draw up game ideas, I've created a dozen different little board games and I also like drawing up hero ideas. It's just a creative outlet for me, and it doesn't take long at all to type this stuff. I type really fast.

I know, which is the shitty part. I'd like to put new heroes alongside existing heroes.
I have an idea for a summoner based hero, based on who KotL was before KotL was KotL, just not as stupidly OP.
I think. He's real micro based. But he's also pretty potent if the guy has magic fingers. But yeah the thing is I'd have to take existing heroes out to put new heroes in and that's just no fun. I don't wanna take KotL out to add Summoner, especially since KotL would mesh well with him, sustaining his super mana intensive push.

>Dragon Knight was a bit awkward of a hero, he's not well defined to be a hard carry
because he should be a natural tank
icefrog should give him a taunt
i.e.: dragon blood in addition to the passive it's a targeted skill that forces one unit to attack dragon knight for x seconds but it breaks if dragon knight moves at all (so you can't force other units to chase you like gay axes do)

Nigga has -1 base armor and 15 agility with only 2 agility growth. Any ranged heroes just shit on him in lane because he takes 95% of their damage. anyone with a modicum of right clicking potential can kill him super fast. He's a strong laner against melee, but he doesn't have much to save him from being ganked since his invisibility fade time is 3 fucking seconds long and leech seed won't save him from 3 people right clicking him. Neither will Living Armor in most cases, although that is a pretty decent way to save yourself or someone else from a single hero right clicking them.

Are you talking about Carry Treant or Support Treant. They're both very different heroes.
Just buy a gem nerds. And ward you jungle and kill him when he tries to make trees in your jungle.

>>145543524
He won't get an Aghs unless he does well, in which case he's still vulnerable to being bullied in lane.
He's strong early game just for his map wide damage block heal but outside of Leech seed OoV he has very little killing potential in lane. By mid game he falls off hard to any team that just fucking wards, and if he does get Aghs just get a gem and quelling and go clear out your jungle every now and again.

>>145498960
Rest in peace sweet prince
>>145545361
If you want a bit more guaranteed farm:
Try going mid and then telling your jungler (or second support if you got lucky enough) that they can take mid after about 5 minutes. Just jungle constantly. Works for meepo, at least.

How? There's literally NO contender if the requirement is complexity (since simple games like DOOM can have very good gameplay)
>>145545443
Is there a guide on how to effectively jungle? I can't do it for shit
Also, how do I support Naga? Part of the reason I want to play her is so that if no one fucking picks a support Io can be the wardbitch.
>>145545592
Bots are only necessary when you're out of slots and a lot of the times, especially depending on what hero you play, you may not need to buy them. Bots are not gold efficient but they are slot efficient. Kind of how abyssal used to be, and how bloodthorn is
Lumi is back!
>>145545720
The gist is to farm medium camps because most heroes can pull it off level 1, stack and pull easy camps and hard camps and stack your medium and hard camps to a degree where you can get lots of gold but not get killed in the process if you're, say, are or enigma. The most important part of jungling is your timing, knowing how long it takes to get from camp to camp so you don't miss your stack timing window
>>145545592
my top 5 are:
Necronomicon
BoTs
Midas
BlinkDivine Rapier
I exclusively spammed to death the three very best heroes in the game last patch.
Will the lord of desperation rise again?
Will he bring balance to nature and fix the meta once more?
Will he rule the land the fix this mess of a game?
>>145545720
Look for the dota1 jungling guides
>>145545720
>support naga
max ensnare
use it, especially on bkb'd carries because it pierces
that's literally all there is to it
Jungling depends entirely on what hero you're playing, but for Naga, just spread out your illusions a lot to get a lot of riptide damage out but bring enough illusions/your hero to multiple camps every summon to kill the camps
get arcane boots/aquila/bottle and use them a lot, remember to get runes at even minutes
if it's around :43-53, stack. Riptide helps to clear out stacks.
>>145498810
i think you mean there is no point being a dendi because trading your 1000 gold head for 3 300 gold heads isn't worth it
>>145545865
He's still a good hero idk what everyone is so pissy about. He's just not fucking broken which is fine by me.
>>145545649
if atos did something cool, like making the enemy miss, even if it was a 10-15% miss chance or something, would be legit more useful then it is now.
it has no wow factor at all. i'd legit rather buy a euls or some shit, at least then I could purge silences, or dispell runes, or disjoint attacks.
>>145545871
Hard stacks fuck me up, should I bother trying to stack them until later?
Won't arcane slow down radiance significantly?
Also, if a hard stack has a regen satyr, how do I deal with it?
>>145545865
>bad laning
>edict got nerfed to the ground
>>145545990
how do you fuck up stacking?
>arcanes
the mana they give you more than makes up for the lost time and you can disassemble them after radiance to make bots and octarine.
>regen satyr
take your hero and one or two illusions and just take the stack. Don't stack any single camp too hard or you/your illusions will just die trying to take it
>>145545990
Having mana to actually use your spells to farm easily makes up for the extra 900 gold that can be sold/recycled
>>145545943
>Leshrac is relevant
$ OpieOP
>>145546092
As in, I can't take hard stacks because a centaur or satyr will do their aoe and all my illusions die.
>>145546097
So is it viable for Naga to jungle from the beginning?
>>145545943
>good hero
>never picked
viable memes
>>145546234
Oh, right. Focus more on stacking the medium camps. They're easier to take and riptides do more to them. Hard camps do tend to fuck up heroes with more than 2 units.
You really can't jungle from the beginning. You don't have the mana or damage to take them from minute 0, but once you get a bottle/aquila, and 3/0/2, you can pretty much just jungle until you have a radiance. You might need to go back 1 or 2 times
