win some you lose some

This week on Teach Me Tuesday, Bee & Proud go over the most recent mini patch, 7.19d, and all the nerfs it brings.

nope

On this week's Teach Me Tuesday Ursi is joined by John from Shelved Games since Bee is out sick this week! We're covering plenty of stuff but mostly focusing on branching out as a player, the most common and yet most difficult part of all our dota lives, particularly how mid is so awkward to learn but so gratifying once you've gotten comfortable! On the questions front we're covering being confident in your decisions, communicating effectively as a mid player that's having a tough time, Save Your Friends Syndrome, how best to use your drum charges, splitpushing vs. fighting as a core, and plenty more!

beee didn't give me a description or title so this is what you get who even reads these anyway lamo 

fcuk yuo

Proud and Ursi are covering the entirety of the post-TI balance patch 7.19b! It's mostly nerfs to top-picked TI heroes that we somewhat expected but a lot of smaller, more interesting nerfs and some interesting overall changes to our pubs before the upcoming major patch we expect sometime around a month from now!

On this week's Theorycraft Thursday Proud and Ursi are completing their new-hero trist with Grimstroke by playing him and trying to convince Ursi he needs to become a Grimstroke spammer (spoiler: he will be)! We're also casually covering our strategy now that we're trying to play and climb more seriously, a lot of lane partner pair-ups with Grimstroke, how to fit Earthshaker into a team comp, why pubs are bad at Spectre even though she's great, adapting pro or high-level strategies into your pub play, countering a defensive duo safelane, Mario's advantures in dimensional portals, and plenty more!

I sorta just described it in the title oops lmao im doing this at the event please be kind to me

On this week's Theorycraft Thursday Proud and Ursi fly too close to the sun by attempting to play core Crystal Maiden by abusing her +250 attack speed talent and it goes as expected. It's a great example, if a little strange, of how the proper process of theorycrafting a new build should go when it comes to analyzing a hero's strengths and weaknesses and building around to amplify strengths while mitigating potential weaknesses. For our weak in Dota we have Ursi realizing he's a terrible Invoker player and Proud explains exactly how one figures out how to approach the game strategically once they've taken all the outer towers and are forced to figure out how to approach high ground (hint: its about buying a gem!). All this and more on this week's show!

After our regular Week in Dota segment we're focusing our hero specific segment on carry Bloodseeker (all applies to mid BS as well) who's real strong at the moment as well as 4 Pudge played by Ursi who discovers the wonderful, terrible, gore-filled world of Pudge!
