General DiscussionDoes Dire have any exploitable advantages?

all your creeps are lifestealer

The Dire used to have better camp positions, proximity to Rosh, etc. but that was done away with when 7.00 rolled around. So in short, unfortunately not.

Lord Beerus is actually making a point well if it was WC3 DOTES anyways hahaha.

Their situation is very dire

^ ba dum tsss

@Xignum Ayyyyy LMAO NICE

Radiant 323
62.85%
Dire 282
67.38%

and I feel radiant is much better because camps are close to mid lane and easy to farm.

Radiant safelane and midlane have camps that are closer to their lanes, easier farm, and now that roshan advantage is gone I can see that radiant have the upper hand
While dire have.....
Edgy, dark, and cool atmosphere

I think it's a good things that Valve do this to implement 'Being good are always better that being bad' in ours sub-conscious mind

Even the name suggests that valve saw a radiant future for it

why the dark guys always gotta lose
Valve Racist FeelsBadMan

./.. Dire :D

~43% radiant
~45% dire

in pro games dire always has the advantage

thats because pro game they play in captains mode, which the dire are able to pick 2 straight pick after the 1st hero pick by radiant, This is well use by dire to pick 2 hero that combos very well or synergies really well, like back then luna + shadow demon

while in pubs,you know what happens

So... are you implying they (Icefrog and the voices he hears) are purposefully skewing the map in favor of one faction to account for the inability to perfectly balance the picking mode?

Easier to gank radiant midder i think
