A guide to improve your gameplay as
Deadwood v2.5.14
Table of Contents
This guide is intended for the casual 5v5 games on Forest of Caldavar and Normal Mode. Do not expect to follow these guidelines and be successful in any other conditions.
Deadwood is just another hardcore ganker, who's also able to initiate and deal decent auto-attack DPS. He is a hero that is best played solo in the middle lane, as he needs to gain levels as early as possible. Given the right circumstances, he has the ability to totally dominate the early- and mid game, and should thus capitalize on this as much as possible in order to be viable at the later stages of the game. He's is a hero that excels at quickly bringing down single targets, and catching the enemy off guard, even when they got good map control through wards by using the woods to his advantage. In the hands of a good player, he can be an extremely important asset to a team that's capable of causing unstoppable havoc on the opposing team's carry while your own carry farms your team's way to victory.
Born of the cruelly tainted lands of Newerth, Deadwood is the undead husk of the first Keeper of the Forest. All around him, living things wilt, and he has little hesitation to destroy trees or use them as weapons. Despite seeking the destruction of Newerth, he still commands the incredible strength and natural powers of a forest guardian, thus combining the cruelty of the Hellbourne with the powers that once belonged only to the Beast Horde.
Nothing here will make you a better Deadwood player, but it'll give you a good feel of Deadwood's theme and background. We can immediately draw a conclusion that Deadwood was the very first of a line of Keeper of the Forests. For some unknown reason he's now joined the Hellbourne forces. Claimed by dark magic? Betrayed to the point where his lust for revenge made him switch sides?. It'll remain a mystery for now, but it seems like Deadwood's mind was twisted from a will to look over and guard the forest, into a desire of completely destroying it. As the first forest guardian, Deadwood is very likely to be one of the oldest characters on Newerth - chances are he's even older than ol' Bubbles. His powers and abilities still remains from his time as a guardian of the forest, despite no longer being one.
Basic Stats
Let's look at Deadwoods base stats and gains,
Damage: 56 - 61
Attack Range: 128 (Melee)
Attack Speed: 0.68
Armor: 2.74
Move Speed: 300
Strength: 25 (+2.7)
Agility: 16 (+2)
Intelligence: 16 (+1.5)
What really should catch your mind at first here is Deadwood's high base damage. It's a good way above average, and combined with Uproot, last hitting should be extremely easy for you. However, Deadwood is a melee hero, so you run the risk of being harassed by auto-attacks or hit by spells every time you're going for a creep kill. Your high base HP combined with average movement speed comes to the rescue though. Starting with 625HP, you're not gonna be that easy to take down at an early gank, and your staying power in a lane is really great. Deadwood's stat gains are nothing more than average. You do have a decent chunk of strength gain, however. At lv25 you'll be quite tough with over 2.2kHP, and that's with no items. Your agility gain is not bad for a strength hero, and will supply you with decent natural armor. Deadwood's intelligence gain is not the best, and you'll need to boost your mana needs through items in the early phases of the game. You'll have an easier time at late game, but you'll still want to keep those items as long as possible to supply your mana.
Advanced Stats
Cast point/backswing: Rotten Grasp 0.15/0.85; Uproot 0/1.0; Oakbolt 0.3/0.3; Clearcutting 0/0; Willowmaker 0.4/0.6
Damage point/backswing: 0.4/0.3
Sight range day/night: 1800/800
Missile speed: Instant
Turn rate: 0.54
You got fairly good numbers to work with here. Deadwood's damage point is good. Not the best, but good. As already mentioned, your last hitting will be easy as pie with your base damage plus your boost from Uproot. Note that the damage point/cast point and the backswing together make up your whole animation while attacking, and that your backswing is the part of the animation after the blow is landed/projectile sent/etc. In other words, it is completely cosmetic and should be canceled whenever possible (also referred to as animation canceling) by issuing another command, preferably a move or hold command.
Take a look at your cast points. Your cast point on Rotten Grasp is only 0.15 seconds. That's pretty fast! However, you do have a backswing of a grand 0.85 seconds. That's pretty slow... Cancel it to speed up your chase or escape. It also gives the enemy a much smaller time window to notice that you have casted it. They do hear the sound when it's cast however, so any player that's not half asleep will know that you've casted it. With 0/1 seconds on Uproot, you can literally grab your tree as you run by, not stopping at all. Oakbolt's cast point is just average, cancel the backswing for faster chasing. Clearcutting is instant nothing more to say there. Willowmaker has 0.6 seconds of backswing which is almost as long and superfluous as Rotten Grasp's and Uproot's; you do want to cancel this one too in order to get those extra last hits in. I can't stress this enough folks, cancel your backswings!
Deadwood's turn rate is average, at 0.54 (or 540 degrees / sec). Now, for the sake of argument, let's say you're being chased at low HP, and you want to throw an Oakbolt at the chaser to slow it down. Deadwood will actually have to stop and turn until the target is within his 180 frontal degree arc before he'll cast. This will take some time, and combined with the 0.3/0.3 cast time on Oakbolt, it might just be a better idea to keep running depending on how many you're being chased by. In a 1on1 situation you'll most of the time have the benefit from Oakbolt's snare, but if two guys or more are chasing you you'll allow the other enemy hero to gain ground on you, maybe enough to cast it's own stun/snare that will be the death of you. It's highly situational, so please do keep this information in mind.
Hero Role
We all know the four main groups of roles in Heroes of Newerth: Initiator, Support, Ganker and Carry. If you wanna be good at this game, it is crucial that you understand your role on your team. You don't win games by building and playing Glacius as a carry hero. Maybe in noob stomps, but not in pro play. Glacius was simply not designed to be played as a carry hero. With that in mind, it's time to learn Deadwood's role.
The most important factor to look at when it comes to hero roles are their skills. All 4 of Deadwood's skills are active. They revolve around (1) surprising the enemy, (2) trapping the enemy in place, (3) slowing down the enemy, and most importantly; (4) dealing burst damage. This screams GANKER all the way, and Deadwood shouldn't be picked for anything else. Deadwood is also a great initiator, being able to bring key opponents down in a matter of seconds. Although Deadwood dish out enough DPS through auto-attacks to be called a soft-carry, there are far better picks for carrying, but he can certainly help the team dish out some extra, raw auto-attack DPS in teamfights later on. Now, what's a ganker's job on a team? Your job as Deadwood is to run around the map, setting up kills (remember, carries get priority on last hits!), and just as important; constantly be on the opposing carries' arses all the time. A good ganker makes sure his own carry farms well while the enemy carry doesn't get any farm at all. At later stages of the game you'll be unloading all of your skills at the start of the fight, then whiffing the enemy down with your auto-attacks.
Skill Description & In-Depth Analysis
It's time to take a look at what this guy can do with his awesome skills and how to best utilize them,
Rotten Grasp
Rotten Grasp is easily the single most skill-reliant ability that Deadwood possesses. In short, this skill has mainly three uses: Trapping and/or chasing opponents, as well as escaping ganks. Think of it as a weak, limited AoE-version of Keeper of the Forest's Root. First, let's take a quick glance at how far the range of this skill is,
Including the radius of the AoE, you end up with a max range of 1500 units. That is pretty far, which makes this skill so great at surprise ganking and initiation. Assuming you're not revealed by wards or anything, you can approach safe from the Fog of War, and cast this without the enemy noticing before it is too late.
Before we talk about how to use it, let's go over some mechanics and how the skill works:
- When the skill is cast, it will take affect after a 2 second delay. The enemy can not see the visuals of this skill before it goes off under any circumstances. No form for true sight will reveal it. It's only a cosmetic visual for you and your allies.
- Deadwood performs an animation to cast this skill, and a short sound-clip is played. If the enemy has sight on you, they will both see and hear you cast the spell, effectively giving them a heads-up.
- The debuff is constantly applied to anyone initially in or entering the AOE at any given point for it's remaining duration. Should however a unit manage to escape the AOE by any means they will have the debuff removed.
- Enemies take 100 Magic damage per second, this is your only source of Magic damage.
- Enemies receive reduced armor. This synergizes greatly with you ultimate and auto-attacks.
- The skill issues an Immobilized state to the enemy, disabling any ability classified as a travel ability for it's duration. This includes
- Dig
- Lava Surge
- Twin Fangs
- Like a Ninja
- Sky Dance
- Trample
- Elemental Warp
- Stagger
- Illusive Dash
- Heavenly Vault
- Vampiric Flight
- Wave Form
- Ludicrous Speed
- Flash
- Flash of Darkness
- Tsunami Charge
- :chro: Time Leap
- Flurry
- Cannonball
- Courageous Leap
- Charging Strikes
- :TabletOfCommand: (Doesn't work on anyone with the debuff, regardless of who's trying to cast it)
- :Portalkey:
These abilities will be disabled as long as the heroes are affected by Rotten Grasp. Use this knowledge to easily get heroes that have an annoying escape mechanism like Magebane.- Psuedo-blink abilities like Night Hound's Pounce and Maliken's Sword Throw are not classified as travel abilities and will still work. They may use their skills to move out from the affected area.
- You can get rid of the debuff though items like Geometer's Bane, but if you end up in the AoE again it will be re-applied immediately, as the skill constantly applies the debuff in the affected area. Magic Immunity from spells or Shrunken Head completely ignores Rotten Grasp and will debuff it.
- It does not reveal invisible units. This means invisible units remain invisible, while heroes like Night Hound and Scout can become invisible while they're stuck in it. They still take full effect from the skill, however.
How to Rotten Grasp: Rotten Grasp is your main way of setting up kills, as it allows you to get in melee range of your ultimate. Your goal is to trap your target(s) in the area, walk up to them and finish them off. Easier said than done? Sure is. Because of the 2 second delay, it is easily dodged by simply running away from the area before it goes off. If an enemy is moving (which they will be most of the time), you have to predict their movements, and aim the skill accordingly.
This skill is easiest to land if you're in the Fog of War without the enemy knowing, but let's say you're laning against someone. Sure if you're mid you can sometimes use the hill to cast safe from the fog. However, when the enemy DO have sight on you, they will try to dodge it, which is why you have to be the better player and predict where they will be heading. In this case, a good way to hit would be to: (1) Always keep moving around. Make random turns and just move back and forth changing to circles and so forth. Be unpredictable. (2) Cancel the backswing animation immediately, (3) then proceed to either (3a) keep walking in the same pattern you did before you casted it, assuming the enemy did not notice that you casted it, or (3b) if the enemy is competent, it will notice, so hope for the best and start walking against it to force it to either walk into you or your Grasp. Also note that while the enemy may know the direction of the cast by looking at you, they won't know at what range you casted it - behind, on top, or in front of them. It really boils down to a game of prediction. It takes practice and you'll have to study each individual opponent's movement patterns.
When ganking, make a teammate throw a stun/snare on the opponent for a guaranteed hit. Always try to make sure the outer ring of the AoE just covers the target, and place it in the direction the target is most likely to run. If you don't have the support of your teammates or they don't have a stun/snare, just study the way your target(s) move. If they mostly walk around in circles or keep to the same pattern, you can almost hit with 100% certainty. If a creep is about to die, you can set up a Grasp for that melee guy (ranged even) who's certain to walk up for the last hit. Remember, just keep trying and you'll master it in no time.
For chasing, you simply cast it ahead of the enemy, preferably at a choke point, forcing the enemy to walk into you (and your comrades) or get stuck in your Grasp.
Rotten Grasp can also be used defensively, and yes it's quite straight forward. Be it to save yourself or an ally, just cast it so that it'll hit the chasers or block a choke point for the escape.
This skill does what it says. You get 5 charges/hits with added bonus damage, and the subskill Oakbolt. Every time you hit something, you lose a charge, which means you lose the tree after 5 hits. The skill is mainly used to boost your last hitting while laning, and just raw DPS when attacking enemies.
In short, Oakbolt has two main uses: Chasing and interupting channeling spells. Look at this image to get a feel of its range:
- When cast, removes all charges of Uproot.
- If cast on units (enemies), performs a mini-stun, which in itself is extremely useful to stop channeling spells or Homecoming Stones.
- It also deals Physical damage and applies a 75% snare. You normally deal more damage with auto-attacks (boosted by Uproot) so don't even use it when you're on 1 charge left, unless your opponent is running from you in case you want a slow. If you're opponent is low enough to die from one or two auto-attack after you can use it to kill it faster.
- Your opponent will basically be crawling when initially hit, which makes it easier to follow up with a successful Rotten Grasp.
- If you're on your way to a lane to gank, it's a good idea to make sure you pick up a tree early, so that Uproot will be off cooldown when you arrive, allowing you to use Oakbolt and immediately pick up a new tree.
- You can use Oakbolt to snag last hits, or harass your lane opponent. However, try to do this only on your last charge of Uproot. By continuously spamming Oakbolt on your opponent, they will either keep backing off, denying them last hits, or just take it and ignore it, which gives you an excellent opportunity to surprise them with a quick, animation canceled Rotten Grasp.
- Being Physical damage, you can throw this on Magic Immune units! They will take the damage, but neither the mini-stun nor the slow will take effect.
Clearcutting is the skill I tend to use the least. However it does have alot of uses to it, it is also Deadwood's only ability that "technically" scales. You want to use this skill to surprise the enemy, escape ganks and boost your DPS through increased attackspeed.
- When activated, you gain treewalking, which is extremely useful. Your treewalking is also different from normal treewalking because it destroys any tree you walk through.
- While destoying trees is pretty badass, it does leave a trail that other heroes - allies or enemies - can follow.
- With 4 charges, not only do you get +60 Attack Speed and more Movement Speed, but you're also immune to slows with 100% Movement Slow Resistance (does not apply to AS)! You can basically laugh at Zephyr as you walk through his ultimate at full speed or escape Slither/Armadon's otherwise annoying slows.
How to Clearcutting: While you'll most of the time use this skill only for escapes or the speed boosts, it can be used as a ganking tool. Let's say you're Hellbourne, and the enemy is pushing the top lane. You can walk deep into the forest at some point and hide, safe from enemy sight. From here you can prepare yourself for a successful Rotten Grasp, because it's not an angle most people will be expecting a gank from, letting you catch them off guard. Run or or preferably blink in with Portal Key and quickly take down a key opponent if you're able to, while your team follows up immediately after. You can gank during the laning phase like this too, but it's not recommended as most of the time you can just approach like a normal ganker. Alternatively you can use this skill to run straight through any tree you were hiding behind before you casted that Rotten Grasp, instead of walking around it.
Don't hesitate using this skill for pure DPS whenever you're entering teamfights or whatever. Simply build up charges for the AS-boost.
Using this skill as an escape mechanism is great. Whenever you see the enemy coming to gank you just activate the skill and juke the sh*t outta them! Simply run into the forest if it's thick - or straight through to safety if there's just a few trees around. While they may be able to follow your tracks, you will constantly be under the Fog of War. You also get a 12% speed boost with 4 charges to help your escape. With Portal Key, you can easily avoid damage this way for 3 seconds in order to blink away. Any slows or snares will be a waste on you if you're close to trees to build up your charges.
If Deadwood's right arm is this awesome, why doesn't he always use it? This is Deadwood's signature move, his very own verion of Falcon Punch; Deadwood Punch! Notoriously known to one-shot people, Willowmaker is mainly used to deal burst Physical damage. Look at the skill in mid-cast; would you want to get hit by that?
Let's get the facts straight:
- It's the Physical version of Pyromancer and Witch Slayer's ultimates - only better!
- It deals Physical damage, which is why it's so superior to Magical nukes early game, as most heroes will have <5.5 Physical armor. However it scales worse into late game.
- It stuns for 1.5 seconds, which is always handy for some extra time to finish people off. But the real deal behind this is that it goes through Magic Immunity. Yep you heard it, Deadwood is one of the few guys who's able to stun Magic Immune units.
- This makes him great at stopping carries because he can stun through their Shrunken Head. You can also stop Magic Immune channelers this way.
- Since it's Physical, any reduction in Physical armor will boost it. Rotten Grasp, Sol's Blessing and Shieldbreaker are some ways to increase the power of this skill.
- Criticals and anything that could normally proc on auto-attacks won't. Attack modifiers are not applied (with the exception of Frostwolf Skull), and neither is your auto-attack damage. This means, in order to use this with a Shieldbreaker, you'll have to hit your target before you use Willowmaker on them.
- The skill is blocked by Nullstone, so make sure you trigger its cooldown by throwing an Oakbolt at your target before you use it.
- It lowers the targets strength by 20% on use. This means that the target's max HP is actually reduced for 5 seconds. It is applied before the damage, and goes through Magic Immunity. It will only reduce health gained from raw strength, however. This means that HP gained from say a Beastheart will be unaffected.
- To give an example, let's imagine a target with 0 Physical armor, thus taking full damage, and 1100 HP, spread out at 150 base / 950 strength:
How to Willowmaker: There is no rocket science into using this skill. Point - click - kill. Or so many people seem to think. I've been accused several times for "picking a cheap, R-click-hero", which may be true - Willowmaker will definitely one-shot the squishiest targets during the early stages of the game. However, people seem to forget that you have to be in melee range to use the skill. Any decent player won't just let you run up to them and hit them, which means you'll need the aid of an ally - in which case most people are dead anyways - or hit them with a successful Rotten Grasp. This is why mastering Rotten Grasp is so essential in becoming a successful Deadwood player.
So, when do you use this skill? Use it whenever it's off its low cooldown, because it'll snag you a kill most of the times. Using Rotten Grasp first when you go for a kill will not only let you get up in melee-range, but it'll also reduce the target's Physical armor which boost your damage as it's Physical. In teamfights, don't waste this skill on weak heroes like Glacius (especially not if he just unloaded his whole arsenal) for cheap kills. Save it for the most dangerous opponent like the carry, or a key disabler.
Don't fret using Willowmaker if you find yourself in a tight situation, a 1.5 second stun can be the difference between getting killed or making an escape.
Skill Build
I've seen many different ways of building Deadwood, but honestly, I can't see any other skill build for this hero than the following one:
1 Uproot
2 Rotten Grasp
3 Uproot / Rotten Grasp
4 Rotten Grasp
5 Rotten Grasp
6 Willowmaker
7 Rotten Grasp
8 Uproot / Clearcutting
9 Uproot
10 Clearcutting/Uproot
11 Willowmaker
12 Clearcutting
13 Clearcutting
14 Clearcutting
15 Stats
16 Willowmaker
17-25 Stats
Rotten Grasp is maxed first for obvious reasons. It's your main way of initiating ganks and to get in melee range of Willowmaker. You want to max Uproot next for more DPS (and farming) and the slow duration in Oakbolt. Get Rotten Grasp at level 3 if you wanna go really offensive and think you can kill your opponent that early. In rare cases where you're getting ganked a lot by the enemy, one level of Clearcutting at level 8 is all you need for treewalking. Deadwood Pun... erm Willowmaker is skilled whenever possible because it's awesome, without further ado. The bonuses of more Clearcutting charges are too great to be left for stats, so it'll be maxed at level 14.
Initial Items
Your initial items are mainly aimed at giving you better survivability and staying power in a lane, as well as better last hitting power.
Deadwood, with his high base damage and Uproot, shouldn't have any problem getting last hits, which is why I like to get two Crushing Claws on him rather than a Logger's Hatchet. Feel free to get one instead of the Claws however if you're not that comfortable with your last-hitting skills, or if you suspect facing other heroes with high base damage like Pebbles or Blood Hunter.
The two Minor Totems will be used for your Power Supply, but I wouldn't bother upgrading your Claws into Bracers unless you really feel you need them.

Core Items
Your core items should always be finished before buying anything else. Deadwood needs items that boost his mana, and items that make him mobile.
Portal Key: This item is a must on Deadwood. It allows you to instantly port next to a hero to finish them off Deadwood Punch-style. If a target is hard to hit with a Rotten Grasp, you can alternatively just blink right next to them, punch them in the face with Willowmaker, and set up a guaranteed Rotten Grasp while they are stunned, but do note that Willowmaker won't benefit from the armor reduction you get by setting up Rotten Grasp first. Portal Key will usually be the last item you get for your core build, but if you find yourself having the gold at some point, you should definitely buy it.
Power Supply: One of the best items in the game for it's price, I feel this item is mandatory on every single hero. Clutch health and mana on demand, there's no reason not to get it.
Bottle: This item is what will let you keep roaming/ganking and spamming your skills without having to return to the base. Using the Tablets to refill it, your mana problems should be solved. Assuming you're laning mid, this should be one of the first items you get.
Blood Chalice: This item is a popular alternative source for mana, especially for strength heroes. However, Bottle will in most cases be superior if you're a roaming mid, which I hope you'll be as Deadwood. Bottle also regenerates whatever damage you took during your gank, allowing you to go straight to the next. However, feel free to pick up Blood Chalice together with a Shaman's Headdress/Helm of the Black Legion over the Bottle if you're facing a team heavy on either Physical- or Magic damage where survivability is needed. You should swap one Crushing Claw for a Mark of the Novice in your initial items for the build up in this case.
Ghost Marchers: These supply you with both great mobility and damage (for 1500 gold, +24 damage is a bargain in itself).
Striders: Get these if you somehow are having a hard time farming and need to go ganking as soon as possible.
Steam Boots: Very situational. You should only go for these boots if you're the team's best candidate for carrying (auto-attack DPS). Deadwood is able to carry to a certain extent, so get these if you wanna focus on a DPS-build. If your team has a real carry, however (which you should), get Ghost Marchers.
Homecoming Stones: Being able to port to help an ally in dare need, to stop a tower from getting destroyed by the enemy, or to quickly get to a lane to gank, you should always try to carry at least one Homecoming Stone at all times once the game starts to get on. There is no reason not to. Don't be the guy who never showed up in time to participate in a clash and end up losing a tower.
Luxury Items
Luxury items are items you should aim for after you've finished your core. Always ask yourself: What does my team need the most? Listed are some possible alternatives:
I was about to put this item with your core. Sol's Bulwark has great synergy with your ultimate and is too good to pass on in any game now really. It offers almost as much armor reduction as a level 3 Shieldbreaker for less the price, and you don't even have to land an auto-attack first to get the effect because it's an aura. Deadwood is one of the best candidates to hold Bulwark in -armor mode on a team, but don't get it if someone on your team already as it (set to -armor). Nonetheless it should be your first priority luxury item if you're doing well.
If you're dominating, getting a quick Shieldbreaker is always a good idea. The item buffs your whole team's DPS on a single target. Additionally, it increases the power of your ultimate. Do note that you'll have to hit once to apply the debuff to the enemy before using Willowmaker to make the effect take place.
A more team-oriented approach, Daemonic Breastplate is a natural upgrade from your Sol's Bulwark as the game goes on. Assuming you have someone else to DPS, it's generally always better to get this over Shieldbreaker, as it boosts both you and your allies' survivability and DPS.
Shrunken Head is a great pickup as your first or second luxury item if your team lacks good initiation depending on the situation. It allows you to blink in with Portal Key and bring down key targets uninterrupted. Even if your team has a main initiator, Shrunken Head is always a good item on Deadwood if you're facing a cast-heavy team.
Although it has no synergy with your abilities, Behemoth's Heart is an awesome item to pick up if you find yourself with a lot of gold in your pocket at some point. It boosts your survivability and makes you able to initiate and take the hits without going down.
Deadwood being a hero that naturally can accumulate a lot of farm, Sheepstick and/or Hellflower lets your team initiate and disable even better. Sheepstick is great at disabling powerful, key opponents on the opposing team, while Hellflower can boost your burst even more, or disable spell-reliant opponents. Both items solve your mana problems for good.
Not the first item you want to get, in rare cases Riftshards can be a good follow-up from Shieldbreaker etc. if you're gonna be the team's main source of DPS.
*If you need to free up space, you can get rid of Bottle and Power Supply. Keep your boots and Portal Key as part of your end game items.
Items to Avoid
Despite popular belief, these items are generally a bad pick-up on Deadwood. Do not get these!
A popular item among lower tiers, Runed Axe is attractive to newbies because it boosts your DPS, HP regen and solves your mana problems! Well, getting a Bottle and a Power Supply solves your mana and HP regen as well, for a much cheaper price! You don't need the cleave at all because you're supposed to gank, not farm, and there are better, cheaper items for DPS (which isn't your main role anyways).
Assasin's Shroud gives you invisibility, more burst and DPS all in one! What a great item! Well it's not. Once again there are way cheaper items for DPS than this one, and sure the invisibility allows you to sneak of on your opponents and punch them in the face, but it's also countable by True Sight. Know what item also allows you to get close to your target, that isn't countable by True Sight and provides way more precise positioning? Portal Key. Get it.
While walking up to a lone guy farming neutrals while stealthed from Assasin's Shroud, then literally OHKOing (well technically two hit KOing) them might be fun in noob stomps, Codex is a bad item. It's also expensive. It's Magic damage, while most of yours is Physical. Investing the money in say a Shieldbreaker syngergizes way more with the rest of your skills and play style. Codex is also one of those items that quickly loses it's effectiveness as the game goes on. Oh and did I mention Codex is a bad item - period?
Deadwood should always try to get the middle lane. I wouldn't pick him if your team already has a guy who's a common mid laner. You need to take advantage of your early-mid game potential, and it's crucial that you get your ultimate at lv6 ASAP. Not only are you able to last hit better versus most mid heroes, but you're just that kind of hero that totally dominate if you're going up 1on1. While Deadwood works in a side-lane, it's not where you really want him to be. Hence, the following will be based on going middle.
So, the first thing you wanna do is to head towards the Tablet spawns. Go top spawn if you're Legion, bottom if you're Hellbourne. Follow the paths from your tower and stop at the inclines. This way you'll get sight of the spawns and be completely safe. Haste and Invisibility can be used for an early gank, Illusions and Damage will boost your last hitting powers for their duration. When the game officially starts and the creeps spawn, hurry and get back to your lane and try to block the creep wave as much as you can. Do this by walking in front of the lead creep all the way down. This will get the creeps closer to you which allows for easier last hitting. The following image shows the ideal spot for the creeps to clash in the middle lane:
Here, you'll have what's called a higher level ground advantage. First off, you'll be hidden from the opponent in the Fog of War. Second, if the opponent in a ranged character, it'll have a 25% miss chance when attacking uphill. So, try and get the creeps to this position, while getting in your last hits and denies. Once you hit level 4 or 5, you're actually more than able to kill your opponent. If it's a squishy target, a successful Rotten Grasp and some auto-attacks (Oakbolt when Grasp is over) can bring a target down surprisingly quickly due to the armor reduction. I've gotten kills before I hit lv6 several times, even at lv4. Once you hit lv6 you can go gank immediately if your mates really need it. If not, then I suggest you kill your opponent with a Grasp + Willowmaker combo. You'll be able to dominate this lane easily from now on, which (eventually) forces the opponent out of it. Now's a great time to start ganking.
This is it. Your time has come to bring chaos on the other team. Let's start by looking at your possible ganking routes:
▪ Red routes are Legion
▪ Green routes are Hellbourne
▪ Blue routes are for both teams
I've added common Ward spot during early game. The three spots in the bottom right corner are popular Hellbourne spots, while the two top left ones are popular Legion spots. Depending on how the opposing team have warded, you might have to approach more cautiously to avoid being spotted. The ward closest to the bottom lane (the rightmost one) is an amazing defensive Ward for the Hellbourne team; you won't be able to gank this lane without a Tablet of Haste or -Invisibility. I've pointed out a route at top lane, showing how you'll be ganking with Clearcutting. Just port to the tower (to the second one if the enemy got sight on the outer one), and walk unseen up into the woods.
Whenever you gank, you want to use this order: (1) Rotten Grasp, (2) blink in with Portal Key if you have it, (3) hit once to apply Shieldbreaker if you have it, (4) use Willowmaker, (5) hit with auto-attacks and Oakbolt. This combo should kill most heroes. If you wish, you can blink in with Portal Key first (assuming you have it by then), then use Willowmaker and follow up with a Rotten Grasp. However your ultimate won't benefit from the armor reduction from Grasp this way, so only do it if you're sure you can kill the target. Be sure to check to enemy forest for an easy kill.
When the laning phase is over, you can gank lone heroes busy farming with the help of some teammates, but be careful when you do so! It's not as safe to gank at this point because the enemies will stick more together and be ready to back each other up.
Team Clashes
In team fights, your initial goal will be to bring down key targets (hard-carries or disablers like Tempest are excellent targets) as quickly as possible, preferably before they get to do anything. Squishy disablers probably won't survive your burst and auto-attacks, while carries with Shrunken Head will still be stunned for 1.5 seconds no matter what, which should be enough time to bring them down with the support of your allies. Getting the fight to a 4on5 before it even stats is a huge advantage. When pushing or being pushed, remember you can run into the woods and hide along most parts of the top lane. Blinking in from here (ideally with a Shrunken Head activated) is almost certain to catch the enemy off guard. It can be gamebreaking if you manage to land your stun on a hard-carry like The Dark Lady or Chronos before they get to activate their Shrunken Heads or throw off their spells. This way you'll be able to follow up with more disables besides from your ultimate.
Good Teammates
Basically, any hero that can reduce Physical armor is great to couple up with Deadwood. This also goes for anyone with a stun or slow, because they'll easily set up your Rotten Grasp. To name a few:
Demented Shaman is an awesome hero. He has a it all, a slow/stun and Physical armor reduction. If he throws his ultimate a little while before the team fight beings, yours will equal disaster for the enemy.
Andromeda is like your best hero to gank with. A reliable stun and instant armor reduction (unlike DSham) is a godsend to you.
Pestilence, need I say more? Not only does he stun, but his Swarm will let you one-shot ALOT of heroes.
Glacius is the coolest guy to have with you. His aura will allow you to spam your skills way more (missed Rotten Grasps during laning phase aren't that penalized anymore), and he has two awesome skills that'll let you set up a Rotten Grasp without failure.
Enemies to Avoid
Basically you don't want to face enemies that are capable of increasing their own team's Physical armor. Silences also stop your effectiveness.
Demented Shaman is good to have on your team, but he can be a real PAIN when on the opposing team. His Storm Cloud will render your Willowmaker burst close to useless (you'll still stun).
Plague Rider is a common babysitter, and he's really good at it. He's also a ward b*tch which is bad news for you. Most importantly, he's able to give any ally +12 bonus Physical armor. Do not want!
Scout has an awesome agility gain, which gives him high natural armor. That doesn't go hand-in-hand with your ultimate. He can also go invisible, even when he's hit by Rotten Grasp, so you'll have to gank him with True Sight or an allied stun. However, most annoyingly, he has a silence that'll make sure you can't hit him or his allies with Willowmaker because you have to be in melee range (this also goes for Night Hound). Scout also has free wards which is bad for any ganker.
Keeper of the Forest is probably what you used to look like... A good time ago. He has a HUGE armor buff that will severely reduce the efficiency of most of your abilities.
Hammerstorm and other strength carries won't go down that easily, and they'll beat you up if you fail to. This guy even boosts his whole team's armor through Galvanize - not good!
Void Talisman punishes Deadwood greatly. This item is one of the only counters to your ultimate, but it's a useless pick-up on carries so you'll only expect supporters to get them. Too bad they're your favorite prey.
Match ID 9559792
Overall this was a great match. I was able to dominate my lane and snag some kills. I got off a couple of good ganks and the opposing Madman didn't get much farm at all, while our Chronos got nice and rich.
Match ID 12143739
In this game I was once again able to dominate my middle lane. Several techniques in getting early Bloodlust and general ganking are demonstrated. This game also shows how Deadwood's early-mid game dominance is able to force an early concede on the enemy.
Match ID 14611960
Four squishy intelligence heroes is exactly what Deadwood needs. I played a full-time roaming Deadwood after lv6, and felt it was very successful. I would have gotten away in numerous stylish escapes if that damn Thunderbringer didn't exist. Once again I helped Madman get a few kills and we raped face in the end.

good guide. ive played him alot and i found its pretty ez to get a port key around the 7-8 minute mark. I get buckler(shield), axe, and runes. Then boots then port key.
I used to get two minor totems, two claws, axe, and runes. then i would get boots(steam boots), power supply, bracers and then port key. found this takes WAY to long to get port key and thus renders me less useful than if i got port key first.
I think ghost marchers are good, but steam boots are better. why? bc u can use it to get mana or hp.
overall good guide.
clan snsd... hahah that is awesome. Do you guys have 9 members? kk
0.54 turn rate is actually the "average" turn rate, so it's not bad at all.
There are turn rates of (most commonly):
0.36, 0.45, 0.54 and 0.9
Or just multiply them all by 100 to give:
360, 450, 540 and 900.
Those numbers just mean how many degrees the unit can turn in 1 second.

Great guide. the layout and pictures are really well done. Certainly one of the best guides in the last couple months. It's too bad he's getting his rework so soon
HoN Information Central The CTRL+F Guide
Deadwood is getting a rework? WTF?
Really well made guide. I enjoy the high-res pictures, and the font and style used. It makes the whole guide look a lot cleaner, and more professional.
What I would like to suggest is to add an optional Clearcutting skillpoint at level 4. It is situationally useful, because it let's you abuse tree-walking earlier than most would suspect.
Other than that, a lot of true information. And I am glad you put the core the way it is. I see so many people put **** like Sustainer in core.
Updated turn rate. Thanks, ElementUser!
About adding Clearcutting to lv4, I would like to see some situations where it might be handy. My build and entire guide if you like is based on soloing mid lane. I don't really see why Clearcutting would help you there. You can't really "abuse" treewalk-ganking at lv4 because you'll have at most Rotten Grasp lv2 which isn't that good to be honest.
Thanks for the feedback so far, guys!
Oh btw you can make your guide more concise by removing some redundant text (like animation cancelling Rotten Grasp - good players animation cancel all spells that can be animation canceled anyway)

There will always be "bad" players who don't know about animation canceling (for instance) who come to the forums and read. But yeah I got your point now that I read that part again. I'll look over it and see what I can do tomorrow.
ElementUser: How is it now? I shortened down the Rotten Grasp-part and did some minor rewriting to other parts. I'm not the best at writing concise, so please feel free to point out more that can be shortened or give examples and I'll see what I can do
Too bad Deadwood might get a rework next patch. >.>
If S2 implement those changes I'll have to rewrite big parts of my guide. What good timing. :P
with the codex changes codex can be a worthwhile pickup after blink, because it extends the period of the game where you can instakill people with no chance to react and is a fair bit cheaper than shieldbreaker, and it does work very well with the str reduction from ult - plus it builds up nicely from a disassembled ghost marchers and is great fun for completely ****ing people who try and counter you with void talisman - you blink ult to initiate, they void, but then take 700 more true damage from grip + codex... i.e. said squishy wasted 2k on void and still gets instakilled.
It's better but work can still be done in the skills description area so readers don't have to read through too much on skills alone.
Also, slow resistance does NOT apply to attack speed. Sorry. You can't use Clearcutting as a DPS tool, only as an anti-slow tool.
Oh and Striders is a viable alternative to Ghost Marchers if for some unknown reason you're having a very hard time farming Ghost Marchers up & need to gank ASAP (aka, you're put in a dual lane against 2 ranged)

Yes you do still get +15 AS per charge from Clearcutting (I have no idea when that was implemented zzzz).
My main point still stands though, slow resistance doesn't apply to attack speed.

Oetting coaxes a steal attempt attempt
EAST PEORIA – Sterling catcher Bailey Oetting faked a throw toward first base as Tinley Park's Alyssa Gunther danced in the base path.
Gunther stayed put and Oetting threw back to Stephanie Kester with one out in the fifth inning of what turned into a 5-4 loss for Sterling in the 3A state semifinal game at EastSide Centre.
The Sterling crowd behind the backstop implored Oetting to just throw it to first base to try and get Gunther.
All of them but one. Her dad, Ryan Oetting, didn't want his daughter to take the bait.
"Don't throw it behind her," Ryan Oetting yelled. "That's what she wants you to do. You throw it to first, and she'll take off for second."
On the next pitch, Gunther took off after a fake by Oetting. Gunther didn't have a chance as Oetting's throw was true to second.
"I just have a system where I fake it down there three times," Oetting said. "On that third time, I know they are going to take off. I knew I had her when she broke for second."
The throw was a nice confidence boost after her attempt to catch Kate Sebastian stealing second in the third inning went left and into center.
"I just threw across my body too much on that throw," Oetting said. "You learn from that and move on so that you can make the next throw perfect."
Part of the show: Tinley Park coach Wendy Podbielniak was part of the entertainment during the Titans' turn at bat.
The energetic coach was animated as the third base coach, interacting with her players and the Warriors.
In the third inning, slugger Sam Alberto laced a foul ball near her coach. Podbielniak danced away.
"Now your smiling," she joked with her stoic junior. "Now I know what it takes."
In the sixth inning, she tried to have Alyssa Williams put down a bunt.
The attempt skirted down the line slowly, and Sterling Priscilla Aponte wasn't likely going to be able to field the ball and make a play.
Instead, Aponte jumped to avoid contact with the ball, and it gradually went foul and Kester came over and snatched it up.
As Aponte returned to third, Podbielniak gave her a high-five and congratulated her on a smart play.
Blame it on the rain: Sterling won 29 games this season, which is two short of the school record of 31.
It's a record they likely would have shattered if not for nine games that were canceled due to the wet and cold weather this spring.
This was the third time that a Sterling team had played in a third-place game. The girls basketball team took third in 1979 and placed fourth in 1983.
And the champions are: It took eight innings, but Glenbard South finally figured out how to scratch across a run in a 1-0 win against Alexis Silkwood and the Alton Marquette Explorers, who beat Sterling 3-2 in the semifinal on Friday.
Glenbard's Jane Trzaska tripled home Payton Carli in the top the eighth for the game's lone run.
Silkwood, the IHSA's all-time wins leader and strikeout leader, allowed six hits and one run. She had 11 strikeouts and no walks. She finishes with 1,908 career strikeouts. She'll take her arm to Mississippi State next school year.
Trzaska and Stephanie Chitkowski (19-2) combined for a shutout for Glenbard South (31-5).

Nikolaj Coster-Waldau might not play the most likable character on "Game of Thrones," but he is a sweet, funny guy in real life. The man known on the HBO fantasy series as Jaime Lannister got to show off his real self on "Conan," where he told a hilarious anecdote about his recent trip to the American Film Institute award luncheon.
"Every year there's a lunch where they pick out the 10 best movies, and this year as well 10 best television shows. We were there and it was really cool and it's a lunch, they serve you drinks and food and it was one of those places where whenever you put your glass down there's someone there to fill it up," Coster-Waldau says.
He continues, "At the end, I was just dying. I had to go to the restroom. Finally it's over and I'm just running out there and it's packed with people. All the urinals are [full] but then I spot there's a stall and the door's open. So I go, I'm not going to let anyone get there. I was dying. … This idiot — this guy — was in there, so I just go for it. I didn't know, the door was open, I just go for it. There's a guy there, he's standing. I'm pretty sure there's spillage. I just ran into him. I said, 'Sorry,' and he said, 'Sorry,' and then I go, 'My god, that's George Clooney.' He's so short."
According to Coster-Waldau, this is actually a "cautionary tale." "Guys do that. Why? He's smart, he can win Oscars and he's a great director, but … close the door or you leave it open," he says.
Watch the second part of the interview where Coster-Waldau talks about getting very, very muddy below. "Game of Thrones" airs Sundays on HBO at 9 p.m. ET.

Carlos Gutierrez, a senior Hispanic American surrogate and adviser to Mitt Romney's presidential campaign, said Sunday he was "shocked" by Romney's comments about President Obama giving "gifts" to minority groups.
"I was shocked. And frankly I don't think that's why Republicans lost the election," he said. "I think we lost the election because the far right of this party has taken the party to a place that it doesn't belong."
Gutierrez, a former businessman who advised Romney's campaign on outreach to Latinos, slammed the comments on CNN's "State of the Union."
"I don't know if he understood that he was saying something that was insulting," Gutierrez said.

Ok so normally I dont review anything although I myself read/watch milions of reviews for buying decisions but anywho.... this is my 1st bluray and I've had it since February and I'm pretty much at the point of throwing this down 2 stories. I know things have a tendency to glitch but netflix on here is a joke. It continually freezes and the remote stays unresponsive so I always have to unplug the whole thing. And it's not my Internet connection b/c netflix works perfectly fine on my note 2 and note tablet. To make a long story short you'd be better off getting a hdmi to phone connecter thingy (4got what its called sorry) and streaming Netflix on there as I've been doing lately b/c this model is basically just a pretty dvd player. I've even been thinking about getting an allshare dongle so I can share the screen for netflix instead of having my precious phablet across the room but hopefully this review helps you back out on this here model dont be cheap like me lol

Slow menu. Netflix app never remembers my account information, have to log in each time, really annoying. Plays music CDs fine. And plays DVDs fine. But I want to use more for Netflix but it's almost useless for that. Sometimes the menu gets stuck and It won't respond to any buttons from the remote not even power off, I have to unplug the machine and plug back in, but even for that it is annoying because you can't unplug the power cable from the box, instead I have to get behind furniture and unplug from the wall. I feel like throwing this piece of junk out the window sometimes.

Pretty Bad
By JLee4
A few months after purchasing this product (new) from Best Buy, the disc tray got stuck with a brand new blu-ray still in it. I had to send it to Samsung to get fixed. After that, the device would make a suspicious amount of noise while playing blu-rays as if it was trying harder to read the disc and DVD's couldn't be read. Now after a little over 2 years, the device won't connect to my wifi even though my signal strength is always "very good". I've chatted with and spoke to tech support on several different occasions, but there has not been a permanent solution. Maybe I got a lemon, but I'm very disappointed in the quality of this product.
Good player with limitations.

A current firmware update that includes Hulu and other available apps would make this player much better.
Buy the more expensive brand of Blu-ray!
By disgruntledSamsungcustome

Device worked intermittently for about 14 months, e.g., constantly froze in NETFLIX mode, DVD would sometimes not eject, often times couldn't power on with remote, slow to connect to Wi-Fi, etc. Now it is officially dead ... of course, two months after the limited warranty expired. I spent an extra $20 and bought our daughter another brand at the same time we bought this Samsung. Other brand has 100 apps, while the Samsung has only 5, and she wanted the extra apps. Other brand has always been faster to connect and has not had one single issue. I still like my Samsung 42" plasma TV and my two (2) 32" Samsung LED TVs, but no more Samsung accessory electronics for me. This time I'll spend the extra $20.

To get your celebrations right, we bring you some exciting summer boat party ideas.
Ideas for Holding Summer Boat Parties
We agree that boat bashes aren't a very regular thing! But then that is what makes them so special. Set sail for high-seas adventure with your close comrades and friends with a funky boat party. But even before you get aboard, don't forget to drop in the invitations. You can wrap the invitation around a roll of Lifesavers or customize yacht or boat shaped invitation cards, personalize it with funky wordings, and send them across to your guests.
Be it be on land or a boat, no party can really do without a theme. When it comes to boat party themes, the options are endless. From Hawaiian style Luau party to fun island party to film-themed party, you can just plan your event the way you want. For example, if you wish to host a luau, make sure you deck up your boat with loads of tropical flowers, fruits, and have loads of Hawaiian style cocktails and punches.
Turn your boat party into a memorable bash with the perfect decoration. Depending on your party theme, deck up your boat accordingly. Get loads of steamers, banners, fireworks, string lights, and balloons to dress up your party venue. No matter how you choose to adorn your party scene, just make sure that it falls in sync with your party mood and theme.
Food is the show stealer of any event and your boat bash is no different. Treat your guests to something simple yet tasty like yummy finger foods, burgers, hot dogs, salads and chips, BBQ dishes, luscious dips, delish desserts, and more. And yes, don't forget to fill the pitchers with loads of drinks and punches to squelch the parched throats of your guests.
This summer, have all the fun that you can with these summer boat party ideas that would turn your boat bash into an extraordinary affair.

Obama: Compromise or 'political conquest'?
In a magazine interview, President Obama says Democrats are more willing to compromise than Republicans. But Rep. Paul Ryan, a leader among young Republicans, says Obama wants 'to fight us every step of the way politically."
As he moves into his second term, President Obama says he's going to spend more time communicating directly with the American people – something he acknowledges having done too little of during his first term – while working to present his administration and most congressional Democrats as willing to compromise on important issues.
"I've been spending a lot of time just thinking about how do I communicate more effectively with the American people?" Mr. Obama said in an interview with the New Republic magazine. "How do I try to bridge some of the divides that are longstanding in our culture? How do I project a sense of confidence in our future at a time when people are feeling anxious?"
Obama acknowledges that Democrats have "got a lot of warts, and some of the bad habits here in Washington when it comes to lobbyists and money and access…"
"But when it comes to certain positions on issues, when it comes to trying to do what's best for the country, when it comes to really trying to make decisions based on fact as opposed to ideology, when it comes to being willing to compromise, the Democrats, not just here in this White House, but I would say in Congress also, have shown themselves consistently to be willing to do tough things even when it's not convenient, because it's the right thing to do," he continued. "And we haven't seen that same kind of attitude on the other side."
That's certainly not the perception of leading Republicans in Congress, particularly in the wake of an inauguration speech in which Obama was loud and clear on such favorite liberal themes as gun control, gay rights, and climate change.
"When you saw his speech, say, at the inauguration, it leads us to conclude that he's not looking to be moderate, that he's not looking to move to the middle," Rep. Paul Ryan said on NBC's "Meet the Press" Sunday. "He's looking to go farther to the left, and he wants to fight us every step of the way politically."
"All of [Obama's] statements and all of the comments lead me to believe that he's thinking more of a political conquest than a political compromise," Ryan said, echoing House Speaker John Boehner's recent comment that Obama wanted to "annihilate" the GOP. He also gave a back-handed compliment to Hillary Clinton, the retiring Secretary of State who – very conceivably – could face off against Ryan in a run for the presidency in 2016.
"If we had a Clinton presidency, if we had Erskin Bowles chief of staff of the White House, or president of the United States, I think we would've fixed this fiscal mess by now," Ryan said. "That's not the kind of presidency we're dealing with right now."
Like Obama, Ryan acknowledged his party's need to attract a wider range of voters by communicating in a way that addresses peoples' personal needs and concerns.
"We have to expand our appeal to more people and show how we'll take the country's founding principles and apply them to the problems of the day to offer solutions to fix our problems," he said. "We have to show our ideas are better at fighting poverty. How our ideas are better at solving health care. How our ideas are better at solving the problems people are experiencing in their daily lives and that's a challenge we have to rise to, and I think we're up for it."
Ryan hinted at one controversial issue on which he might agree with Obama: The need for stricter regulations on gun registration, including background checks.
"The question of whether or not a criminal is getting a gun is a question we need to look at," he said. "We need to look into making sure there aren't big loopholes where a person can illegally purchase a firearm."
On guns, Obama pointed to the differences in perception in Democrat-leaning urban areas and rural areas more likely to vote Republican – something he said his party often fails to do.
"I have a profound respect for the traditions of hunting that trace back in this country for generations. And I think those who dismiss that out of hand make a big mistake," he told the New Republic.
"Part of being able to move this forward is understanding the reality of guns in urban areas are very different from the realities of guns in rural areas. And if you grew up and your dad gave you a hunting rifle when you were ten, and you went out and spent the day with him and your uncles, and that became part of your family's traditions, you can see why you'd be pretty protective of that," he said. "So it's trying to bridge those gaps that I think is going to be part of the biggest task over the next several months. And that means that advocates of gun control have to do a little more listening than they do sometimes."

There is something so wonderfully romantic about this gorgeous Chicago wedding by Jenelle Kappe. It's captured so beautifully, each image sitting in this gallery is like a precious keepsake that will stand the test of time. From the Bride's elegant lace gown to the stunning florals from Asrai Garden, it's lovely from start to finish, and it's all waiting for you right here.
From Jenelle Kappe… Jennifer and Christopher are two of the sweetest people that I have every met!! The day of their wedding they were calling for rain and thunderstorms almost all day. Our plan had become to have them see each other before the ceremony and hope that we were able to be outside for at least a few pictures. Well, Mother Nature decided to cooperate with us and shine a full day of sun for Jennifer & Christopher. Not a drop fell. It was perfect!! They were able to have their outdoor ceremony as well as all of their pictures outside.
Jennifer's dress was so classically romantic. She looked absolutely stunning, it fit her perfectly!! From the bride,"My Mom had a full lace dress for her wedding day. She looked so beautiful and romantic in her photos. So I knew I wanted to wear a lace dress for my wedding. When I found the dress, I fell in love with the gorgeous lace pattern and knew it was the one!"

'joy' large boston bag with double handles $640.00, zip-top closure, D ring detail, and inside pocket. 15"L x 8.3"W x 10.2"H.white GG plus with platinum leather trim and light gold hardware.
Helmut Lang Cropped Leather Jacket The lambskin leather of this jacket is so deliciously, creamy soft that any style details are almost beside the point. However, the design of this cropped jacket is amazing. The 4" tall ribbed knit collar can be worn up, and is fastened with four double snaps underneath, which give the closure an off center look at the top (where there's also a bit of a trench yoke as well). The front zipper lives under the hidden placket, which comes to a curved point in front. The back is shorter and has 3" of ribbed knit at the hem. We absolutely love the sleeves... they are leather to the elbows and then 10" of ribbed knit, ending with knit stirrups that keep things long and sleek inside gloves. Lined. Stunning. In black.
Zac Posen Jacqueline Python Flap Clutch What could be more glam than a python in hand? Zac Posen's little beauty is styled in a super shiny metallic python of multisized scales with black satin piping trim. It measures approximately 11" wide by 6" tall and about 2 1/2" deep (the bag is not structured, but is a bit puffy so it can be relatively flat or will accomodate all your needs). It secures with a double snakeskin strap finished off with two ginormous leather-fringed tassels (as if it weren't OTT enough). Inside it's lined with a scrumptious suede and has one interior zippered pocket. In silver.
Valentino Python Sweetheart Pumps When you think "sexy shoes" the image in your mind just might be this exact pair of killer stilettos in to-die-for python skin. They have a sculpted shape, with a V front and a "sweetheart" cut at sides... and skinny, skinny stiletto heels. Whole and half sizes 36-40. We feel these shoes run a half size small so order accordingly. In black.
Calvin Klein Quilted Coat &178.00 with Three Dimensional Collar A mix of shiny and matte fabric finishes amps up the appeal of a long coat, asymmetrically closed at the high-loft collar. Curved seams quilt the waist for a nipped-in look. Zip-and-snap closure.On-seam zip pockets.Approx. length from shoulder: 41".Lightweight polyfill.Polyester; machine wash.By Calvin Klein; imported.Coats

Directed by Gus Van Sant (MILK, Howl, Good Will Hunting, Drugstore Cowboy)
Martha Marcy May Marlene is a powerful psychological thriller starring Elizabeth Olsen as Martha, a young woman rapidly unraveling amidst her attempt to reclaim a normal life after fleeing from a cult and its charismatic leader (John Hawkes). Seeking help from her estranged older sister Lucy (Sarah Paulson) and brother-in-law (Hugh Dancy), Martha is unable and unwilling to reveal the truth about her disappearance. When her memories trigger a chilling paranoia that her former cult could still be pursuing her, the line between Martha's reality and delusion begins to blur. — (C) Fox Searchlight

We do have cats, and have had several people stay with allergies. All have said that they did not experience problems. Here is a description of the rooms.
Bedrooms: Master bedroom 1: Nicely furnished with a queen bed (it has a thermapedic topper), armoire, TV, DVD player, mini-fridge, Coffee maker, microwave, desk, and has its own nice bathroom with a shower. Although we have cats, they do not come into this room so it's good for allergy sufferers.
The Travel Twin bedroom: We have a really nicely furnished smaller twin bedroom with a shared hall bath. This has a trundle bed that pulls out for a separate twin bed or can be put together for a king size bed. Very comfortable mattresses (one has a Thermapedic topper), cushy comforters, TV, DVD player, mini fridge, desk, coffee maker, and microwave. It has its own access to the pool via French doors. Decorated with a travel theme. Cat free.
The Twin Corner bedroom: This room is a little larger than the Travel Twin and is furnished with two twin beds, linens, TV, desk, a mini fridge, coffee maker, and microwave. These are very comfortable Sealy Posturpedic beds. We can move them together for a king size bed, too. The room is light and airy and has some of my horse paintings as decoration. It shares the hall bath and is cat free. This room has French doors opening to the pool.
Master bedroom 2: This is the bedroom we occupy. Just remodeled to include its own beautiful bath. It has a king size bed, and TV. Exterior French door opens onto an atrium. Cats do go in this room, so it is not good for allergy sufferers.
Back yard:
The back yard pool is situated in a very tropical setting. The neighborhood is quiet, and there is plenty of street parking available next to our home. This is a very peaceful setting and a good place to get away from the hubbub.
We are located central to everything - 5 – 20 minutes by car to all activities: downtown, close to freeways 163, 8 and 5. Our location is 163 and Genesee - next to Sharp Hospital (walking distance), Rady Children's Hospital (walking distance), close to Mesa College, Fashion Valley Mall and Mission Valley Mall (one exit away), 5 miles to the beach (we bike there occasionally), USD (2.5 miles) and other colleges, and to the San Diego airport and Montgomery Field.
There is plenty of on street parking next to our home.
Buses or public transportation:
Our home is a 15 minute walk to the bus line. For some destinations you will have to take a few buses. Most destinations are approximately 30 minutes to an hour away. This is a better location by car unless you're young and love to hike. There are no restaurants or shopping within walking distance, however we do give rides when we can.
We are a husband and wife - relaxed and fairly easy going middle aged (well, that's debatable) professionals with some extra rooms. We work full time.
This is a smoke free, drug free, and drama free home. We are well traveled and understand the needs of a traveler. We are friendly but can leave you to your privacy. You truly will find this an escape, an awesome place to kick back, or be close to the action down town.
Ev kuralları
**The pool does not have a fence separately to enclose it, so be aware with children.**No inside smoking, and no disposal of cigarettes in the landscaping or in trash cans inside the house. Please smoke on the side at the bottom of the steps.
** Be aware when you are cooking while using the cooktop. Do not let the pot get dry as it will ruin the glass top. This can be very expensive to replace.
**No after hours partying or noise after 10pm. No loud partying in the pool in the evenings - in regard for the neighbors.
**Please no eating on the beds or cosmetics on the beds. If you have sunscreen on, just roll back the comforters.

Warm and hospitable, Neil and Pamela welcomed us as if we were family. Their unique, artistic home was very clean and filled with cozy opportunities to relax both indoors and outdoors. We enjoyed our stay. Thank you, Neil & Pamela! :) - Terence & Malené

We enjoyed our stay Pam and Neil treated us like family. Their home was fun and relaxing to be in. Great location too. Close access to freeways, but away from crowds and noise!
Nice and friendly, helpful. Nice house in a calm area.
Pamela was helpful when we had bad luck these days. Also we planed to stay longer we had to change our plans because of the bad weather. After our visit i seemed that my wife was allergic to cats but since we were ill, hard to say. Our "predecessor" stayed very (alsmost till 7 PM) long so we had to kill some time while waiting. We liked it and it was a great experience :)
Neil and Pamela were great to stay with. Their home is very nice, and they are a wonderful warm couple, easy to talk with. The kitchen and other accommodations were also quite nice.
My first with wimdu - what a good choice. If all choices are as great, i might never go to a hotel again. Thank you for everything!
my vacation in San Diego has been fantastic, Pamela and Neil are very friendly, wonderful people!
the house is beautiful, very clean and in a good beighborhood; Best place to stay, Best people to meet!
We had a wonderful stay at Pamelas and Neils home. It was a really nice house with everything you need. Pamela and Neil always helped us if we needed something.
They are really kind and always up for a joke.
All in all it was an amazing experience to live together with such nice people!
If we are going to visit San Diego an other time, we'll book their place again.
We had a great time at Pamelas lovely house in San Diego.
