Hmm, a DotA 2 Thread..
I don't know if any of you guys play support, if anyone does or if you're a carry player, what support would you pick to lane with you?
Currently my best pick would be Dazzle, he has a lot of sustain that is also parallel to damage he can dish out, a slowing nuke with a low cooldown, and of course his trademark protection from death. Best thing I like while playing Dazzle is turning the tides around with a well-timed Shadow Wave, oh and Physical damage based skills. His ultimate is just crazy with the armor reduction that can even go through Magic Immunity.
My next picks are Rubick then Crystal Maiden.
(Bitching time)
I just fucking hate it how supports are very squishy especially if you're on the fifth position on the team and you cant make any survivability items aside from mekansm or pipe. Plus, enemy team targets you always.
Depends on the lanes, but CM is a really flexible hero that can lane, jungle, or roam gank. It's important for mid players to know where the opponent supports are at, so you can indirectly help your team win the lanes by simply staying in the fog. If the mid player plays too aggressively or don't respect that the supports are MIA, you can always punish him with a timely smoke gank when he's over extending past the river.
