Nah. A Mac version will come, but they haven't given an estimated time frame. My bet is that it doesn't hit till a few weeks before the game goes live.
cool. I just haven't built up the motivation to boot into Windows and so I have yet to install this copy I've had for weeks now. Oh well. I'll get to it.
 
There is no record of Xanthe in the Playdota winner listings, on the January 5th post or on any other listing. I've seen said account post here and there on those forums, so it should be there assuming he won it from the draw and not just an act of mod charity (which is certainly possible). Eh, it's weird, but certainly not incriminating.
 
Played my first game in over a month. Awkward and rusty, but we still did really good for a 4v5 most of the game while letting out Anti-Mage farm. Our Earthshaker was fanatstic, so he got a + for me.
 
Invoker is something straight out of Magicka.

I'm pretty sure he came to Dota 1 before Magicka came out, but they are quite similar mechanically. I prefer the design of Invoker because it's much more focused. He has a spell for everything instead of about 20 spells for everything of varying degrees of usefulness and style. Magicka overwhelmed the player and you would often freeze up while playing it because you had too much at your disposal and nothing was very well differentiated. It also inevitably resulted in players discovering overpowered mechanics and exploiting those and only those for the entire game (the steam lightning beam is an example of this).
 
I'm now interested in what his tell was. Argh, to think that twat had a Dota code to shit away on a new account so he could squirm his way into Gaf matches.
 

Yeah, I remember that thread. But I was under the impressions those codes got locked out? Maybe not.


I belive he did something ingame several times that gave him away. I was reading the Gaf channel chat when people where talking about him.

Well, it sounds like he applied for a bunch of accounts and all those accounts were related in some manner and threaded back to his original one.

I still can't belive he puts Portland, OR on his accounts. Its the same thing that got him caught selling the DOTA2 keys on Ebay in the first place.

Edit: My bad. I am wrong.
 
I just don't understand why you would scam a community then want to play the game you scammed them having access from. I mean yeah Neogaf is great and all, but really?
 
Aaaaaaand he's gone. I didn't want to jump to conclusions, but it seemed odd to me his first post was "portland?" right after Xanthe was banned......
 
INVOKER, oh god I actually have to stop playing Diablo III Beta
for 10 minutes
