Cyphus and Ursinity take over Proudland to kick off the switcharoo week to delve deep into some support-specific topics.  First, they talk at length about playing a roaming support: who you should be playing, how you should play them, when and where to roam, and what your objectives are in Dota 2 as a roaming support.  Then they switch gears a little and talk about Hand of Midas in post-7.00 Dota 2 and when you should build it, why you should build it and which heroes should and shouldn't be picking one up.  Hint: it ain't Alchemist dammit.  All this and more on the best episode of Proudland ever, errr...we mean Cyphinity...a Dota 2 podcast!
