That’s how abed mastered meepo

Ever since I started playing back in AllStars, Meepo was always one of those heroes that when you saw someone pick you knew you were either in for the easiest or the hardest game of your life. It was always a noob who didn’t know, or a Meepo main who had thousands of hours of nothing but split farming on Meepo

@canyuxel

5 ай бұрын

I was a Meepo main on AS, its fairly straightforward if you're used to handling micro like on autopilot. I'd decimate solo-queue lobbies but it gets very tricky when the entire opposing side is a coordinated team (and you're teamed with feeder clowns), your "numbers" advantage turns into a disadvantage real quick.

@MsHojat

5 ай бұрын

This is very misleading/wrong. If someone plays mostly or only Meepo it means that they will be calibrated for that performance that they always get for that hero, meaning they will _not_ have abnormally good performance. They might still do really well, but that would count on how well they do in the early game and how well the opponent does and if there are counters on the opposing team. When an experienced Meepo picker picks Meepo, allies force him to the off lane, opponents counterpick with something like ET/ES (or Meepo picks into it, even), there's no reason to expect that experienced player to do well, and more-so should even expect them to do poorly.

In a game such as dota 2 which is very complex and hard to play as one hero, even "easy" heroes such as huskar or pa or lc, imagine if you could watch 5 different parts of the map at the same time and play each hero at the same time perfectly, it's just impossible even if u played dota for everyday for 80 years for 15 hours a day, no human can do that while you can master heroes such as sniper way easier and use their full potential. To your point, even then, you will probably always make small mistakes with positioning or miss last hits or something like that but still it is humanly possible to master other heroes where it will never be possible to fully use meepo's potential unless he gets reworked.

Finally, justice for Meepo.

For most of DOTA's history Meepo had a really bad win rate that hovered between like 41 and 49%. It only actually went up above 50% maybe the better half of a decade after DOTA 2 first went publicly playable. But in more recent years there have been a couple periods where Meepo has had high win rates too. Certainly pro level can be slightly different though. It really matters a lot if they can get the right draft and opponent draft for Meepo to work. That, plus someone who can play the hero at an abnormally-high level (which skews the balance outside of gameplay win rate stats) Although on the topic of skill ceiling, for a long time Meepo had a very high skill ceiling. I'd argue for a long time now that ceiling has been somewhat lowered though, due to clones no longer gaining much exp from kills, nor gaining much exp around allies, reducing need to keep the Meepos split to multiple areas as often. I suppose the addition of Dig and MegaMeepo helped return the skill level back a bit though.

@robbierotten2024

5 ай бұрын

@@MsHojat Meepo will always have a bad winrate though, because most people playing him won’t be good enough. For most heroes, their winrate is a good indicator of their balance. But for Meepo, it’s been shown that even when he has low win rates he is capable of being extremely impactful when in the right hands. If a characters bad, there’s a limit to how good you are with them will carry you in a game. What Meepo has shown for a while is that in capable hands he is entirely capable of being a very strong hero; he just requires a specialist in a game that discourages being a specialist at the highest levels. His winrate even in the pro scene is hard to know his strength from exactly, because when someone gets good with Meepo he terrorizes the scene so much Meepo gets banned almost every game anyways and won’t be banned in situations they think they can win, which skews with his true winrate numbers alot.

I quite like the idea of having a universe where soul fragments slowly develop into their own beings. Even if there is a clear resemblance between the original and one of the clones, a clone could be very different from another clone. What's the smallest size where a soul fragment would still be able to take control of a full body? Would a smaller fragment still be able to take control of a small body, even if not a full one? Is it possible to clone a clone? Is there a sort of resistance that the body has to its new soul? (analogous to how a body's immune system might attack an implanted organ)

Adding on to the tangent I think that Meepo is one being but all of his clones had different experiences so they developed slightly different personalities over time. Now they do all level up at the same time so that could dispute this but I'm not exactly sure how the lore explains levels. It could be possible that they all share the same psychological Id, but have separate ego's and superego's which would give them a shared unconscious connection and would also explain how they can poof to each other but I don't think anyone at valve got that deep into the lore of how he's supposed to exist. As for the lost meepo it looks like he's alot older so maybe that's just one of his family members idk.

Alrighty gonna throw my weeb hat into the ring, I see Meepo and his clones a bit like Naruto and his shadow clones. All duplicates of the same person AT THE TIME OF CASTING but can be influenced by personal experiences. Say for example you took someone exercising and made a perfect clone in the middle of it. One of them keeps working out day after day while the other decides to stop and just laze about. One gets fit and the other gets fat. But they're both the same. I guess in a sense Meepo is literally a parallel universe gathering of different hims

Meepo is such a Hero that can be played by 4 man at same time 😂👀

As always a fantastic indepth anlysis, videos will be slow but I know I will watch every single one!

Meepo's 35% magic resistance was also innate since 6.78 (he was the only one who had a different base magic res, whereas every other hero had 25%), wherein it was normalized to 25% in patch 7.07c. The magic res was later readded into Divided We Stand in 7.31.

Listen. If Christianity gets to say 'we only have one god, but that god is three people simultaneously that are not just the same person' and be taken seriously, then fuck it, Meepo can do it too. There is only one Meepo, but that Meepo is in five bodies, and those bodies are also, on their own, also Meepo.

Astounding work, great analysis. I'm really looking forward to watching an episode about Invoker.

As someone who has just played a lot of HotS and League, I always enjoy hearing about Dota. Meepo is like the Lost Vikings but even more skill intensive somehow, super neat!!

problem with meepo is he is pretty easily countered and pros know how to play against it and communicate which meepo to target... in pubs right now meepo is a monster though

Great video!

finally, a good dota 2 content creator Ive been waiting for this exact one

Outstanding video!

If mastah singu's meepo vs navi aint here we riot!

great video!

I think this was my favourite tangent yet. I'm pretty sure I would watch any in depth research he cares to do.

Meepo is my favorite character in dota 2. Theres nothing like 5 cave gremlins beating the life out of some poor guy with little shovels

Meepo is mentally exhausting now unlike before. He's great but every time I play a game or 2, I quit and rest, this mental stress is probably one of the reason why he's not seen in competitive recently since they have to play tons of matches in a day.

it is one of the reason. In TI9 True Sight Insight, w33 said he doesn't play a lot of Meepo competitively because of the mental toll it takes to play Meepo at such a high level.

@@AngrocSound well previously you can just buy aghs have 3 meepo and go to early skirmishes, you also level up faster than ur enemies so you can really stomp early in the game. Now meepo is on the same playing ground as the enemy and most heroes kits has aoe now, so you have to look out for tons of factors to micromanage add to it dota's macromanage nature. So you'll really be tired when having many things to micro and macro. I remember eons ago I can just look at meepo's lvl and the enemy's lvl and I can unga-bunga with blink coz I am way ahead with levels and items.

I enjoyed the video, thanks for the upload.

algo brought me here and damn this vid brings back memories for his mid 30s guy. i grew up playing wc2, c&c, aoe, etc and was around to play the 1.x versions of dota. me and a few buddies coulda gone pro (at the time, 16.x-ish) 'cuz we had actual rts experience and were rolling the moba-only players with meepo, chen, og silencer with the internals, druid with bear build, etc. but pro gaming wasn't anywhere near where it was today. we made bank doing wagers in the gaming cafes in city, then our province. then life happened.

As a curiosity, there was support Meepo from Notail in 2014 :-) (but not at TI)

Great video Baumi!

You got to do Rubick next!!! Epic video man, been following from your first video and every time a new one drops, everything else takes the backstage!

I think a good analogue for Meepo's personality is Jamie "Multiple Man" Madrox from the X-Men/X-Factor. He is able to create clones of himself with physical impact. Those clones are mainly autonomous, but each are a different part of his main personality and able to develop on their own after they are separated. Usually the short timeframe between splitting and resorbing the clones means that they have the same goals as Madrox Prime and aren't opposed to being absorbed again, but sometimes there are personalities emerging with no regard for human life, or who just want to see the world burn. Meepo sounds like he is a bit of the same way. They have the same attributes and skills, but embody different parts of the original Meepo's personality. As time went on their original split personalities developed into different unique personalities who also improved some skills. With Madrox, he sent some clones off to study different fields and learn different experiences, since he also absorbs all the memories they made. There is a recurring version of Jamie who became a priest with his own family.

41:20 that’s actually DJ they were showing 😅

in my 17 years of playing dota i played less than 10 games of meepo and this video encouraged me to play meepo.

As a meepo player, I would highly recommend playing a LOT of bot games getting the feel for him. I played roughly 50 bot matches before taking him into the main game and it still took roughly 20 games to play him competently at divine rank. I was already a micro player before learning.

Oh shit i used to watch a shit ton of Baumi wids when i was younger, dota always fascinated me this content is perfect now ngl, keep it up man. I'll binge

There is a tabletop RPG called "Ultraviolet Grasslands" which has entities known as Porcelain Princes, and Meepo could very well be one of those :)

i watched one video of league vs dota and now i get all these recommendations

Dota 2 lore with a relaxing voice? this was a great find

Lol, here I am listening to a random Dota story as a background, thinking the voice is vaguely familiar when suddenly... Hey, is that Baumi? :D I used to watch you for so many hours way back in the day :D That's a surprise.

I used to main meepo back in WC3 Dota days. I played a lot of RTS back then. I'd farm jungle, and lane at the same time. I could stunlock a player by juggling the nets with each individual meepo. Kiting like a boss. Oh to have my brain and reflexes that sharp again.

Never played dota in my life, idk how I got recommended this video but it is amazing.

Let's go Baumi!!

This is my first time watching a video from this channel and lol, Baumi is that you? I was surprised to see a familiar face here.

I used to play him back in Dota map for TFT. Good times, I had no idea what I was doing but it was impossible for anyone to escape and seeing 4 of these bitting at your ankles, they would melt tanks like it was butter. My friends would just pick an Earthshaker just to ult me into oblivion since I would bring all four meepos into the lane, lol. Ain't doing that complicated roam-jungle-split-managing stuff, even less in an engine as old as sin itself, where trying to position the meepos or watch them painfully rotate at the speed of a snail was pain.

adding to the tangent - on the Artefact card for Divided we Stand, you missed the fact that at the bottom Meepo mentions "if you can't count on yourselves - who can you count on?". This implies it's the same rules as the DoTA 2 description, where it's just the same 1 person split into copies. The I and We is written from the perspective of Meepo 1 or the main Meepo talking about his copies, rather than different Meepo's.

Meepo is a Geomancer Divided we stand could be him creating earth dolls/copies of himself for his shattered souls shards

I havent played dota 2 since 2020 but watching these make me wanna go play dota again

Wasn’t Notail the first player to pick Meepo in pro play? Ofc this was outside The International. In the early days of the hero Notail was the player I associated the hero with before players like Singsing picked it.

i think the meepo clones have some type of individuality but not because they're seperate beings but because the soul pieces aren't identical. i'm kind of imagining like of those cartoon clone type episodes were some guy makes a clone of themself but it's imperfect and only captures one part of their personality, so you can have the clone who loves eating or smt and then you can have the evil clone that has all the worst aspects of that person. so imagine that however rather than creating a new person, the personality of a single complex individual is instead compartmentalized and seperated while still being the same single person. divided yet united. a better example would be to just imagine harry from disco elysium. all his skills and perspectives have seperated and can talk to each other but they're all still him.

I'm now hoping for a video on Invoker, they also have a unique playstyle that's difficult to master.

This is a great video Meepo is my favorite hero in dota I'm waiting for this kind of video about Meepo hope you did it this is a interesting video continue making this kind of videos Thanks and God bless
