By Hitch Go To PostI'm having a shocker too, won 2 in 10 or somethingSven and Jug do.
Learning that with Weaver, you can still easily lose a game you play really well in. Have become used to just winning games with PA when I play well, not sure Weaver has that ability to terrify opponents away from coming at you or avoiding fights
Legion Commander is fun. Why have I not played with her until now?
It's not fun when people by Lincoln's fears though. They did that to me when I played as Doom, too.
I have considered starting Dota 2 on a new account just so I can play against people who are bad.

LC is fun but counterable. And if she doesn't get any farm going at all (either by winning duels or just general farm) can feel useless in the mid - late game.
Jugg is one of those carrys that is surprisingly harder to play well than most people think.

I had an excellent early/midgame with Jugg.
But as you can see, Viper totally destroyed Ember. Nobody kept AM in check. gg

Since I've started playing ranked again, I have a net gain of -200 MMR.
I'm supporting my butt off to no avail. When I pick carry, my entire team picks a bunch of squishies and we get rolled by like, Centaur, Slardar, Tuskarr, Axe, Sven

Finally out of Low Priority. Dota 2 claims I abandoned a game, which never happened. Wonder what the fuck went on there.
Had a horrible game as Lion in my last LP game. Didn't take enough care, and got picked off by Riki too many times. Gyro stole safe lane from Wraith King, who had a horrible early game, took huge amounts of racial abuse from the American on our team and was bullied out of offlane by having to deal with Warlock's ranged attacks and abilities.
We won, though. The other team took too long to finish and our Wraith King finally got his farm and levels, started to dictating the engagements. This was helped by my recklessness as Lion, basically the enemy team was dumber than I was and spunked all their ults on me as soon as they saw me, leaving them with fuck all to deal with the rest of my team.
When playing shit actually helps

I want to play WK so badly, but AM exists, and fk building BKB. With WK you actually *want* people to burn all their stuff on you so the rest of your team can run amok.

Yes indeed. He was the hero i started out with, armlet was fun on him and could be on pretty much permanently late game with the talents and items.
Going to put more time in with Disruptor. The character gels really well with what i want out of the game.
Have not had time to sit down and play a game, but when I do, I'm gonna play SB and buy like 5 TPs instead of charging across the map like so many clowns like to do.
When you win a trash game that you should have lost because someone on the other team abandoned in the first 7 minutes.
We finished the game with less kills than they did even after 35 minutes, lol.

for fuck's sake. Brother got lp again for ANOTHER phantom abandon. His game history shows all his recent games have been completed. Fucking trash system
That feel when the enemy Kunka 1-shots you with the AOE passive because he's slotted 3 Daedulus and a fucking Rapier
We still won, though. Man's don't realise Jug's ult goes through BKB

Don't forget the added crit effect from breaking the shadow blade invis.
Guess this is my new home now. Is there some kind of emoticon extension for here like there was on GAF?
By HylianSeven Go To PostGuess this is my new home now. Is there some kind of emoticon extension for here like there was on GAF?I don't know if this site has emotes, tbh, but it supports emojis and embedded images. Do you see that circle to the left of the post text area with the ""? That shows all the supported embeds.
By ReRixo Go To Postcan you post a link to it, i'm sure it can be portedhttps://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/9498-neogaf-dota2-emoticons
was it cyborgmatt who made it?
This was the TamperMonkey script that I believe Saprol made. There was also the CyborgMatt one on the Chrome store, but that one is way outdated compared to the Saprol one.
By Qvoth Go To Postshame my avatar doesn't fit nicely for some reason in this site :<Make it square, I need to center the template so it will crop in proper. Somehow forgot to do that.
Stopped posting on DotaGAF for ages due to RL thangs but i guess this is where most will end up? hey
ame is a much better carry player than mushi i feel, hopefully that doesn't become the determining factor
i'd like to see a sea team win something for once

By Qvoth Go To Postame is a much better carry player than mushi i feel, hopefully that doesn't become the determining factorYeah. On both accounts.

I'd love tot see SEA take one home. Seems like there have been a lot of SEA teams over the last 18 months that are taking top 6 places.
Just not converting.
Mineski is styling LGD, gg it's been a long time since sea team won a tournament, I think MVP the last team did it
yeah this is NOT a close game at all
this mineski is legit a tier 1 team i think, real shame they wouldn't be able to participate in next week's esl major, hopefully it doesn't fuck them up in their road to ti8

My ancient comp crashed and i couldn't get back into the game before being awarded an abandon. Still played and won the round with no items, but man that 5 win grind to get out of low priority is going suck.

I miss Dota 2. I feel that the change to Dota 2 7.00 broke something for me in the game. This International was the most detached international by my part since the beginning. Even the compendium doesn't feel the same.
I feel like I'm migrating a lot to CS:GO, but I can't wait to see what the Dueling Fates update brings.

Christ, the disparity between having a bad and good match with Legion Commander is huge
I'm always reticent to pick her since you're a genuine liability if your duels aren't on point, but she feels unstoppable when you play well

ESL Hamburg starts in about 12 hours or so.
Think Group B is pretty much Liquid/VP.
Group A is more a toss-up imo, could see EG not making it though.

Some highlights:
In this update we've reworked how the matchmaking rating system works for both ranked and unranked players, changing to a six-month seasonal system. These regular seasons will ensure that MMR is both recent and accurate for all players, which will lead to better quality games for everyone.
Dota Turbo has been added to the search queue. This new game mode keeps the same rules as All Pick but shortens match time by granting more Gold & XP to heroes; making defensive towers weaker; and reducing respawn time. Turbo's relaxed rules and buy-anywhere shop system allow for casual, quick matches perfect for trying new heroes and strategies, or introducing friends to Dota in a more forgiving environment.
Heroes now start with a TP Scroll. TP scrolls start on cooldown at the beginning of the game.
Randoming no longer gives bonus gold. It instead selects a hero from the set of bonus heroes and grants an extra iron branch (in addition to the mango). Removed repicking
Third Roshan kill now drops a single-use consumable refresher orb. Cooldown is independent from Refresher Orb
Alongside two new heroes and four new items.
Looks good!
