[[IMMS]Harakesh]

Brilliant guide!!! Posted it on my clan page as well, its a must read, it covers EVERYTHING

Wingbow description should probably include Arachna as well as Mace as a counter.

Another sad sap who doesn't appreciate plated greaves.

"[treads] is, without a doubt, the best “teamfight” item, unless the enemyteam consist of high physical damage. (Plated Greaves > Steamboots in that case)"

Even average physical damage makes plated better for survivability. It is also cheaper and gives more MS, one of the best stats in the game. It also has a great little activatable perk.

The ONLY reason to get steamboots is if attack speed is worth it on you. (edit: or perhaps if they have all really big magic exclusive nukers)

Hi everybody!
Wauw.. Just wauw.
The black code has been out for now 3 days, and i still haven't quite grasped it yet.
I have been working on this project since the beginning of 2011 - honestly didn't start writing till january 2012 though, but either way..

I just want to tell you all: Thank you!

When i released it a couple of days ago, i felt like i was giving up my child.. Heck, this thing has taken so much of my time, and has been underway for so long. Honestly, i feared the reaction from the community. No offense, but i've seen a lot of trolling going on in these forums, and i was expecting a bunch of "TL;DR", "Nolifer", "Nerd" and similar. However, you guys proved me wrong!

I have received oh so much positive feedback, and i am reading- and appreciating all of it, whether it be good or bad.

So, for all of you who have supported me in the makings of the black code- and is now supporting me by providing constructive feedback and friendly gestures: Thank you! I love you guys!

Now: As i said, i am trying to keep up with all of the replies, PM's and whispers i am getting, and i feel like i am doing alright thus far.
I will keep on updating the black code, as i am hoping for it to become and remain the guide for everyone.

I have updated the following sections:

• Plated Greaves for supportplayers
• Added 4 heroes to brackets <1500
• Corrected errors here and there
• Added a bit more tips to choosing items
  
• Added "When facing dual lanes"
  

I have received quite a bit of requests about midlane-lineups, and i am planning on releasing a section for that one of the upcoming days.

It won't be large, but it should be pretty good at giving a general picture of how to deal with situations.
> I will also be adding replays to the 1V1-mid matchups, as well as 1V2 and 2V2 midsituations.

I would ask for you guys to submit replays of your own, but i am certain most of you would prefer seeing it in competitive play.

Kind regards
FJ

PS: You guys are more than welcome to keep submitting ideas, requesting topics or elaboration.
Again, thank you for all the feedback- your words are what makes it all worth it.
