Epic wins
Easy 5p mode. Win in 19 minutes, all towers killed, all raxes killed. Windrunner. Too easy, really. Just get Lithe boots, activate Windrun, activate Focus fire -> dead tower.

Easy 5p, played with 3 people (two abandons at start). Win in 28 minutes, cleared all but a few mega towers. Two abandons right away (pub limitations) when people didn't get a solo lane. Troll not as effective as WR, but still very good. Activate Ulti and tower goes down fast.

Easy 5p. Win in 27 minutes with sniper. That's 3 in a row.

Do you want others to share their wins here?

I'd like people to do so: it helps us better learn what works and what doesn't.

Lmfao the guy is talking about Easy 5p wins, he's not even playing a normal not to mention hard. Why do people brag about beating games in the easiest difficulty?

In any case, it took awhile but 4p Hard I beat it with Drow. The thing about games that are more grindy/farmy it's difficult to scale it. For example I've only beaten Athena up to Hard mode, the further difficulty requires good team work.

My suggestion is to create creeps that require you to do dodging or "awakening" by another team mate. A boss that shoots on the ground as a targeted aoe forcing you to dodge like a SC bound. Another boss that puts team mates to sleep or disables and requires a team mate to wake them up.

This would up the difficulty by forcing players to form some team work. Otherwise it'll just end up being a solo game with just people happening to be there.

Easy used to be really hard, and like the dev said, showing them successful strategies and such helps them balance. No need to be an ass to someone for being proud.

Yes. The point of this thread is to show that winning became much easier with the latest patch. It seems the devs like it, so I might add more. 5p easy mode certainly has never been this easy.

Sure, why not?

5p Easy in 29 minutes, with Legion commander. Still don't know what good her ulti is, seems rather weaksauce. Same build, pretty much. Every game is a win, just about.

And you didn't feel insulted when he said "it was too easy really"? Easy is easy. It's for beginners to try out a game, "too easy" is always insulting in my book.

But anyway, since this is definitely an epic wins thread. I watched my friends do 5p easy and listened on the call. They finished it in about 10 minutes. BB sits at the base while 3 range dps and a healer cleared it. 3 couriers to ferry items. I'll ask to see if they bothered to take a ss.

Too easy means compared to how it was before this recent patch. It is feedback to the developers, not an attempt to belittle you or anyone else.

Medium 4p, Shadow Fiend, all towers, 26 minutes, pub (all my games are pubs). Rush dragon javelin, then heart + AC to take towers, then ogre for rapier, and gg when you can do the mega towers. Game could have been over at 22 minutes probably.

Enjoy Dragon Javelin hitting towers while it lasts. :)
TLP Feb 14, 2016 @ 4:37pm 
It is kind of insane when you can triple kill towers at the same time, with not much more farm than the dragon javelin. It sort of makes me wish there were more objectives on the map. The global buffs are a bit too unnoticeable at the moment. Perhaps something more creative would be nice, like kill a mini boss for a refreshed glyph, killing towers decreases the armor of the horde creeps, etc. Random drops from jungle mobs, like a hyperstone, or some such.
