More pictures of the promotional cosplay done by PW in China at the G-league event:

I think that lina's outfit is a size too small.
None of them look very happy. At all.
Drow is smiling, and TA is... Tis a secret!
Clearly she wants to accentuate her boobs. Upvoting because they went through the trouble to make such nice cosplay outfits.Quote:

I snowballed so hard with TA after about 3-5 kills it was downright disgusting.
Good luck not atleast smiling.

Also, have some concept art: http://imgur.com/a/k2Tdc
I love the concept art for Abbadon. And you can (kinda) make out the lore for some of them, especially Tresdina. Someone transcribed it somewhere, I don't have it handy though. Basically the tl;dr of it is that Tresdin rose up through the ranks to become the commander of a legion and would always offer to duel enemy commanders before battling. Then a skeleton army led by someone in spirit-crafted armor (this is possibly the Legion of the Dead God, maybe led by Abbadon) shows up. She duels the enemy commander and kinda beats him but then some sort of fog appears and she can't see her troops. She walks around trying to find people and eventually stumbles into our (Dota 2) world.
No explicit mention of her being racist, which doesn't bode well. (but doesn't reveal anything!)
Enemy team picks TA, I pick veno, 24/4/x game, god I loved that game.
Invoker Invoking Invocations
I thought he was using a macro to begin with but upon further inspection it appears to actually be legit, kudos to him.
No words. This guy is amazing.Quote:

6.77c is here!
Keeper of the KotL nerfs, tranq boots nerfs, nyx carapace nerfs, drow nerfs, treant buffs, and a buff to Heaven's Halberd in regards to Manta.
Expected nerfs. This basically makes tranqs fit into the role Ice wanted them to fit, early game boots you'd disassemble later, and not boots you'd never have to replace because of how crazy cost effecient they were.
Kotl is too good in current meta. Nyx too good as a support. Treant still horrible. Heaven's halberd suddenly core against heroes like AM.
I like it overall.
Plus holy pineapple this change will hit PL hard.
How will PL get nerfed?Quote:

PL already got nerfed. Tranqs getting the hammer "affects PL the most because his alternatives were the worst of all. Prior to Tranquils his options were pretty much buy Vanguard or sit on naked RoH. RoH eats up an item slot, and full Vanguard makes your development to real items unbelievably slow." to use the words of another person.
Tranqs are basically also the reason luna became a viable pick again.
lol what. Them boots made and broke a some Hero's meta-game that much? Yeesh. I pretty much went Power Treads whenever I played those 2, and still won. Wouldn't Tranquil Boots still be pretty viable though as a spammable heal? Free HP is still free HP at ~40% the price of a Mek. The boots still have the 2nd highest movement speed boost out of all the shoe upgrades. PL should remain insanely annoying to fight when he can Dopplewalk with no worries to his mana during mid-game and beyond.Quote:

And the healing lasts 20 seconds now, which means if the opponent breaks the heal after 5 seconds you're pretty pineappleing screwed.
But yes, tranqs made a lot of heroes that developed too slowly in the past viable again. Luna used to need HotD to function, now tranqs can solve the problem.
Tranqs are still good, but need to be replaced, instead of being their choice of boots untill they're capped in items and need to replace them with BoT.
OH, so that's what they meant. I thought the movement speed penalty was reduced (+75 MS to +50 MS, not +75 MS to +25 MS). Hmm, I haven't actually tried Tranq carries. Seems like a mighty interesting idea. Don't care they're nerfed. Still want to try it out.
Tranqs are so fun on Spectre though so you don't have to go full vanguard and can just go tranqs+PMS.
Spoiler alert, I really pineappleing love Spectre.
I actually think the tranqs nerf is a pretty inspired choice by Icegod. Does a good bit to shut down the midgame carries that are so prevalent lately like PL and Luna. Don't think it'll hurt Gyro or Lifestealer a ton though so they'll probably be pretty strong along with Syllabear. And it actually hurts Batrider a fair amount which is good by all accounts.
Honestly though, Gyro/Lifestealer/Syllabear is a pretty meh bunch of carries. I'm wondering who we'll see next-- Sven? Tiny? Alch? CK? AM? Jugg? Void? Troll? Bristleback when we get him? I hope we see an end to SD/KotL/PL/Batrider as the big picks, that's all I want out of 6.77c.
BB will be competitive level top tier pick, i can guarantee you that.
If he isn't, the pros aren't giving him a chance. His latest buffs over the past 3-4 patches.. Oh my.

yeah well he really wants Rooftrellen to be picked and that's working out great, isn't it?
