Scrub build Reinvents Sniper

[@nestor4895]

I cannot get over something I noticed... Pyrion kind of sang that "SOME" at 1:39. He sang an F# which is the same note of the song All Star by Smash Mouth when singing "SOMEbody once told me . . ." The weirdest coincidence and I can't believe I noticed it or that it happened.

[@GoldenAgeFalseEcho]

totally

[@alphabassist]

I thought I was crazy when that popped into my head. I’m glad someone else noticed 😆

[@slimek20]

Sniper's Assassinate has such a distinct and good sound effect. I love how often you can just hear it go off once they got that build together

[@Jebu911]

Higway to herald would have been a good parody song with the buyback in black

[@Stobbie]

You fed me all night long

[@Ratzo123ify]

TNT, but it's BKB

[@FineUser]

If Daf is the protagonist of scrub Dota then Umicron and their crew are the supporting cast.

[@Umicron_]

LMAO I'm very happy to have that mantle

[@Burred11]

You're the lancer to Daf's leader, @@Umicron_

[@joshuapostill4952]

Netflix's popularisation of streaming services is way more recent than people think, I don't think anyone over 5 has never seen a DVD or at least a blu-ray. I'm only 22 and we still had a VHS in my living memory, could just be that we were poor though lol.

[@Ihileath]

As a 23 year old I don’t remember my parents having a VHS player, but I definitely watched kids stuff on VHS when visiting my nan when I was real young, and naturally we had loads of DVDs.

[@cassu6]

Yep 22 as well and we watched VHS stuff with my sister. And we definitely weren’t poor growing up.

[@TheOnlyOrk]

pyrion going silent for a full minute thinking about song puns, yes man

[@talkbirdy2me]

You say "it's a strat" but if you see your mid sniper building this, you are going to be wondering when the last time was that you abandon you aren't going to be like "omg if only we had bloodseeker to buff him."

[@TTHJJD100]

Gonna say the reason the snipers ult started hitting so hard so early was the enchanted quiver adding even more damage :P

[@mattcarriere]

Clancy Brown had a small part in Hail, Caesar! that made great use of his face. I love whenever I see William Fichtner.

[@kirkrotger9208]

Pyrion, don't you know? Boots work the same way as divine rapier. You drop them when you die.

[@Umicron_]

Joe called me guardian, little does he know I'm actually high archon/low legend lmao I just throw unranked games

[@brycepatterson2158]

i loved the build mate i thought the autocannon Sniper was a great way too secure kills with a different team setup and better vision i think it would work great

[@emixus1177]

Archon in the streets, herald in the sheets

[@Umicron_]

@@brycepatterson2158 funnily enough this was my 8th game with the build and in 6 of the other 7 it went great. I completely blame the pos 4 marci rushing bkb and basher and feeding endlessly

[@rafaelmarkos4489]

@@emixus1177 Perfect tinder bio, 12/10 would throw my games again.

[@AcceptTheNull]

The human who says, you play this meta, is the human who gives up. For what is meta hero picking but giving up on certain heroes?

[@555CoolKat]

They missed “Highway to Herald”!

[@rafaelmarkos4489]

And then came the Khanda, and thus this build became the de-facto Sniper build. The scrubs were ahead of the curve.

[@GameLeaderR]

I thought this build would never work, but by the end I agree with Joe. Replace Drow with a frontline carry, and i think you might be onto something. It needs quite a few items, but it looks pretty fun.

[@rafaelmarkos4489]

Half a year later, and Khanda has now streamlined this build all the way to premier mid hero status.

[@meltedmuffin]

I think joe is thinking of a jubbly

[@amelialikesfrogs5778]

I got into dota for five minutes a long time ago and my sniper strat was to get mjolnir for the chain lightning. Dunno if that's right or not

[@customink1576]

Hell yes! Such a lovely treat

[@HAXMINATOR]

As someone who have just had to play Brewmaster 5 times as part of my All Hero Challenge run (motivated by the A-Z Challenge, cheers fellers), I can sum up his E. He changes between 4 stances which gives different benefits: Earth gives armor and MR, Air gives movespeed and evasion, Fire gives AS and crit chance and Void gives status resistance and an on-hit slow. Effects are bigger after he casts his W. In my opinion he falls off late game and is only useful for his ult + aura items.

[@gotenks5633]

31:15 80 dmg PER second! its way more dmg than hes giving credit for

[@conorobrien2712]

I do like seeing more nightstalker, haven't played in ages but great to see one of my favs is viable.

[@etherdeef4303]

Im 19 and grew up on vhs and dvd’s! I used to watch south park on vhs, with my great big yellow tv lookalike.

[@elisjones984]

Would you be able to run this as a 3 or 4 or do the items just cost way too much gold ? I've never played lol but magic sniper 4 seems jokes with big front line and melee carry ?

[@jamiedavies3810]

Is Lewis no longer a part of scrub cast? I haven't watched for a while so im just wondering! Joe and Pflax do a fantastic job, I do kinda miss Lewis though!

[@firenter]

Great attempt lads, I salute you! o7

[@piegumplays9059]

As much as a meme it is sniper magical can take people form surprise even in hight MMR as much as divines say it sucks they di kina fall for sillier stuff most of the time

[@MeVSGravity1]

The camera was a bit annoying this time. Sniper is the star of the game, yet we can barely see him. I know he has gigantic range but still.. would have loved to see a bit more of what he's actually doing

[@meewec2091]

they were catching his shots which is the important part

[@zaiohellgren9266]

OI! i grew up with VHS and im 23, speak for yourself pyrion

[@tannermattingly4462]

I don't really blame Ogre's for not buying items that synergize with multicast. The update making him a STR hero and making him get 0 benefit from INT was funny, but killed all those builds. Dagon, Hex, even more niche stuff like Orchid all feel terrible to buy because you're only buying the effect, you're getting no stats at all. I think he was a much more interesting hero when he was INT, and you could justify going for active item effects a lot more.

[@shadowwolf2122]

Song name submission dirty feeds done dirt cheap

[@sgtpatton]

Why don't they do the fountain hook? Lmao too funny

[@Kraden555]

An item that lets you doublecast for like 8k or something... Isn't that just Refresher?

[@crownoswriting898]

Highway to herald

[@gotenks5633]

This NS itemized so freaking poorly given the lead he had...no harpoon, rushing AC instead of abyssal blade or crimson guard.

[@GhastlyThirteen]

As fun as these build are, these discord-group games lack the genuine madness of the usual content, feels like hiring people to throw a game for a video, you can see it going nowhere 60 percent of the way through the game

[@Umicron_]

This game was awful but I'm glad to entertain 🫡

[@koku--]

ty for your service, brave lass

[@Jebu911]

Otherwise clearly the perfect build but you should have gone for yasha kaya instead of octarine as that was just dumb. I mean its cheaper and it would have made you able to combine some right clicks with the ults and littlebit of added mobility. Also considering the ult refreshes why would you even need that 2,5second cd reduction.

[@Umicron_]

@@Jebu911 ah see this is the other school of thought, my idea is that octarine spam is that I'm not killing with assassinate, I'm using it to do damage to help people initiate

[@baconmantube]

Your build is fun but doesn't lean into what makes sniper strong the same way crit/pen itemising does. More importantly you spend more time running away than right-clicking, that's your job, assassinate is too easy to ignore when they're stacked.

[@piegumplays9059]

​@@Umicron_I did the math and yeah ocarina is not worth it compared to increasing the damage of it u can also notice at the end u were close of killing them but not quite remember every kill with ocarina is like 900 damage but with kaya is 1200
