KuroKy even said this on Talk dota. It is really annoying when people assume Pros dont have fun and e-sports is only work to them.

Please stop complaining about DOTA 2 comics.
If someone who had never played TF2 before saw a comic that was joking about hats, they wouldn't get them.
By your logic, that means he should not create TF2 comics.

For those who dont know, dagon is considered a situational item usually bought by nukers to remove other team's nukers/hard carry as fast as possible. Best used at midgame phase, Loses it's effect at late game due to bkbs and bigger hp bars.
Dagon is pretty good for bursting, IMO, as long as you're competent enough to not use it on somebody who's magic immune. This is, of course, assuming you don't dump all your gold into it, which makes you kinda worthless for anything other than bursting.

I'm completely fine with DOTA comics but not about some "who-the-fuck-cares" DOTA-teams. Seriously it pissed me off in the CounterStrike era and pisses me off now with LOL or DOTA.

you know, the trend with the majority these dota/lol/hon/etc players is that when they win, they think they're awesome and when they lose, they feel they (or their teamates) are the ones to blame. Very rarely does one simply say "Hey, I lost because they did better." and learns from it.

To be honest Dagon isn't exactly a bad item. It's not a Cost efficient item. It cost way too much.
However the item itself is still a nice item. If you can manage a full build and then grab it, it's a very nice item to have later in the game...

Let me explain better for you. Dagon is a expencive item that allow you to nuke a single target. It gets stronger each lvl you upgrade it, and in lvl 5 (max) it is the most expensive item in the game.
You are wasting ALL your money in a item that can be contered by magic immunity and resistence.
