The Chinese website SGamer has conducted an interview with Deity.Xiaoluo, the MVP of the final match vs CH. myMYM.com has taken the time to translate the interview for you.
Following the end of the NGF DotA qualifiers. Team Deity has beaten the odds in the tournament involving strong teams such as Nirvana.cn, CH, EHOME and LGD.sGty. Deity earned the chance to play against Nirvana.my through a 2-1 win against CH in a BO3.
Despite the fact that Deity held a 1-0 advantage coming from the winner brackets, CH gave them a very hard time which provided great entertainment for the DotA community. In the final deciding match, Deity won through outstanding teamplay. The MVP of the match was none other than Xiaoluo’s weaver, a newcomer to professional DotA and he has certainly proved his usefulness through these epic games.

INTRODUCTION
Since Icefrog remade Magnus a bit in 6.67 and I played him around 10 times in this short time so far, (and I’m bored) I want to give you a guide to the cool new Magnus. This time it won’t be a step-by-step because it doesn’t help explaining Magnus’ play style. It was just perfect for explaining Bloodseeker’s and Nightstalker’s one because you can clearly say what they should do at a certain point of the game. But I will try to keep up your motivation with pictures and videos in this guide.
Teamfight: He is made for teamrapes. His new Skewer makes him more Dagger independent (what doesn’t mean you shouldn’t buy it), allows you come close to your enemies and gather them a bit, your Ultimate stuns and sticks them at one point and Empower in combination with melee physical dps carries does the rest.

After nearly three months since the release of DotA version 6.66, IceFrog has released version 6.67 with a lot of interesting rework as well as a new mode, capture the flag.
Capture the flag mode is a fun mode which requires teamwork and coordination. There will be six fixed points in the map. These points, when captured, give bonuses to a team’s heroes. There are three kinds of bonuses; combat, regen and speed. There will be two points in the map associated with each individual bonus which will be placed on opposite sides of the map.

The long awaited clash of the western titans is finally upon us as DDT faces off against Nirvana.int in the Farm 4 Fame 2.5 playoff final later tonight.
Team News:
The game we have all been waiting for these past few months is coming up very shortly in tonight’s Farm 4 Fame 2.5 playoff finale. Touted as the top two DotA teams in the West currently, Ducky’s Dream Team & Nirvana.International and will be facing off against each other for the first time in an official tournament. A couple of months ago, Jonathan ‘Loda’ Berg said in his blog that his team defeated Clement ‘Puppey’ Ivanov’s all-star crew during practice. On paper, DDT seems to hold a slight advantage as they have yet to lose a game this month while Nirvana.int’s winning streak has been unceremoniously ended by DTS.Chatrix in Pick-League XIII.

Zeus - The Lord of Olympia (Kakaboo’s Guide)
Range: 350 | | Move Speed: 290 | Primary: INT
Str: 19 + 1.4 | Agi: 15 + 1.7 | Int: 20 + 2.5
Damage: 41 - 49 | HP: 511 | Mana: 260
HP Regen: 0.82 | Mana Regen: 0.81
Attack Speed: 1.44 (+ 15% IAS) | Armor: 3.1
I wrote this because Zeus is actually one of my favourite heroes, and seeing that everyone had such a bad impression on him, I did a search for the guides on him and only found one really really outdated guide, therefore I decided to write one on him. It may not seem like a guide to some of you, but it contains tips on how to use his skills and my way of playing him. You should, in any case, try not to ks because it is real easy to get kills with him early game. Without KSing, of course.

MORTRED - THE PANTHOM ASSASSIN
Born into the reclusive Night Elf group called the Wardens and shunned by the mainstream Night Elf society, Mortred pledged allegiance to the Scourge to take revenge. A perfect blend of strength and speed, the years spent alone in the forests of Ashevalle allowed her to blend into the terrain, appearing phantom-like at times and striking when you least expect it. The deadly precision in which she carries out her attacks have made her a valuable member of the Scourge, and it is clear why she is known as the Phantom Assassin.
HP: 473 | Mana: 169 | Damage: 46 - 48 | Armor: 2.2 | Str: 17 + 2.05 | Agi: 23 + 3.15 | Int: 13 + 1
Attack range: 100 (melee)
Starting Movement speed: 310
As we see, Mortred has a high agility growth (3rd to the highest), a good strength growth but with a low starting Hp, and a horrible intelligent growth. Like many melee Agility heroes, mortred will have a hard time farming and surviving at the start of the game but don’t worry because the item and skill build that we will use will cover this weakness.
