Five Man Push

[AvengerxZ]

This is a replay of a fast pushing strategy me and some friends decided to try one night out of sheer boredom. Yes, the replay is shortmode which automatically makes it lame but this is still fun anyways. Our team consisted of Syllabear, Prophet, Vengeful Spirit, Troll and Lycanthrope. Scourge had Viper, Visage, Magnataur, Sand King and another hero I can't seem to recall.

pure awsomeness, especially since it was shortmode =)

we should make a pact or something, to get a lot of people gather together and go on random -sm games on public executing these kind of strategies, maybe that would make people get bored of shortmode and start playing without it <.<

[AvengerxZ]

I've got another one that's 9:59 that I'll upload to this tread later. If you want to play with me at any time just get on US West and join clan SUMO, I'm on there from 5 - 7 P.M. PST every day.

[Mortifer]

ill be looking forward for the replay =)

about the "pact" i talked about last post, well its not really possible to get people to stop playing shortmode as i see it and doing those quick games aint that fun really <.<

i might drop by at the channel sometime, altough your most likely aeons ahead of me when it comes to skill.

[AvengerxZ]

Here is the ten minute version of the five man push strategy. Again, it is shortmode but enertaining none the less. Same sentinel team as before: Lycanthrope, Vengeful, Troll, Prophet and Syllabear. Download replay here (http://www.wcreplays.com/pub_replays.php?get=28123).

[Mortifer]

neat =)

btw, do you channel got a pingbot? it would be nice to check my latency @ Lordaeron, i bet it will be HUGE <.<

[AvengerxZ]

Not at the moment :(. We had one running with a spare CD-key but ended up having to give it to a friend of a clan members. Where are you from?

[Mortifer]

okay, tried to join the channel btw, but it seems to be restricted (or maybe i typed wrong, 9:30 am and a night without sleep, does wierd things to you)

im from Neverwhere as stated under my name to the left or well im from Sweden =)

[AvengerxZ]

It's restricted because everyone in the clan is offline right now :P.

[etherlion]

surprised none of you went spiderlings, reckon you could do it even faster then.

[p2L-IntrepiD]

I would have recommended brood mother instead of troll...

[AvengerxZ]

We've tried it and it isn't near as effective. You lose the attack speed which is nice for all of the summons in exchange for 1 - 2 spiderlings early on. You do not level fast with this strategy, plain and simple. You need summons that are effective right out of the gate to get the most out of the push. If we were going to do a pushing strategy that was a bit later on in the game we could take Chen as well, but seeing how we go straight away before creeps even spawn makes those heroes a bit useless.

[p2L-IntrepiD]

What about enigma ?

[etherlion]

see your point. enigma wouldnt work but was thinking how about necrolyte, mass heal + aura would be a help. just my two cents.

[AvengerxZ]

Enigma wouldn't be so bad except for the fact his summons are terribly weak. They can take two hits from a tower at the beginning and they are gone. Necrolyte wouldn't be bad I suppose, maybe we will give that a go :).

[p2L-IntrepiD]

Or drow with silence and aura. I just think that troll is pertty ineffective with this strat. Also have you tried using this without -sm. I wonder if it's possible.

[P-L-L]

Very funny to watch :lol:

But what happens if you end up against a KOTL ? He's good to clear mass of creeps, even at low level ....

[junkai]

in -sm, tower is so easy... most heroes can get it down as long as no opposing heroes for few minutes.

Death prophet's ulti can simply get 1 tower too.

To check ping join channel clan Fren, the bot is on most of the time. Got to type .pingme by yourself after the autoping is turned off. The command is accessible for anyone.

[orcdemolisher]

Hmm yes this strat is very fun the first time :) o and thanks for posting this i forgot to save it.
