Greetings all. Finally got my account verification email, and since I would like to get involved with the community, is this the place where inhouses would be formed or is there another thread/ingame channel where people congregate?

Are you meeruuu can you give me some money?
Yeah I just played against bots. Its going to be an uphill battle if I decide to stick with this game.
So many characters to choose from, so many items to buy. It took me ages just to find out how to buy items from the shop, it doesn't say you need to right click anywhere!
Congrats on your fist post on GAF.

Recent waves hasn't been getting the two extra invites unfortunately.
I remember when the secret shop was actually a secret hahah good times.
At first I thought your accusation was unfair. Then I realized it was his first post on GAF. A few red flags are raised, but he could be legit.

Considering I literally have no idea who or what a meeru is, I assure you I am a legit new guy on this site.
Right before my account got activated a lot of the Meeru stuff went down and his clones/fake accounts were posting here a lot, and every new guy that came in this thread was accused of being Meeru. I was sure it was gonna happen to me when I finally got in haha.
But it didn't.. so...

Just had a look at a spectator match. Wow this game looks a lot better than I've ever seen it before, graphically.
Going to start playing it after work tomorrow (well, today now) since it is so late.

Ah I see.
Well that's good, Portland is on the other end of the country from here.

Something to protect you from cancer, I imagine.
All 5 of you should feel bad that you weren't manly enough to build Veil of Discord in a one sided game, shame on you.
Yep.
BESTCON.
Also they're changing the replay format and making it possible for them to be parsed:
We will soon be releasing more information about the features the new replay format will bring and we plan to publish the format of the replay files so that third parties can parse them for game information.
They're also adding the ability to view custom games you've played from your profile, so you can finally download the replays.

Just got in as well. Got absolutely wrecked in my first game (as far as I could tell). Everyone else on my team was playing their first game as well but from what it seemed like the people we played against had been in the beta for quite a while.
I guess it's time to start reading some guides and grinding some games.

Good positive attitude.
Judging by some of the Neogaf Dota players here, I would be surprised if we didn't have any Asian players
Oh is that Nova guy famous? He always asks me to come support him on CM

Awesome. Would be nice to have full party for MM games.
Oh is that Nova guy famous? He always asks me to come support him on CM, him and Colby.
Dunno, haven't heard of him in any tournament but he's listed under Competitive Players on StreamDota2.
He just killed a Warlock named Swag, thought it was you for a sec till I checked steam username.
i remember yuber getting sloshed by rycho a little bit ago
What time do you normally get on? I'll probably get on around tomorrow morning and play until 3pm, then I get back to my real life.

Been trying to get back into the Dota scene, simply from a viewing perspective mind you, but it's been hard to adjust to all the changes. For reference, I stopped playing before Windrunner was introduced, which going off the official change logs was at the very latest 6.55, but I may have quit much earlier. As a result I don't recognize a whole host of heroes and bunch of abilities have been changed on the ones I do, not to mention all the new items.
As I watch more commentaries I feel like I'm absorbing some working knowledge, but it's frustrating to know that I can't have that instinctual knowledge of when someone is in danger, overextending, making good item choices, etc, that I had when I was playing. Someone might say amazing shackle-shot, but I miss having a frame of reference for just how hard spells are to land in certain situations, or how difficult certain heroes are to play as and against.

Leshrac ult + Faceless ult =
You mean Lich ult + Faceless ult.
I totally understand you, because it has been a while for me since I last played Dota 1 and then playing again in Dota 2. I have never even seen how Ancient Apparition is played in Dota 1. But once you play it, it becomes very, very easy to get back into the hang of things.

No, no guys, you both wrong, it's Dark Seer's Vacuum + Enigma's Black Hole.

It's VS aura + Drow aura.
DS's Vacuum and ES's echo would do a better job. <3 ES
Shadow Fiend Ult + Dark Seer Vacuum!
Oh man I'm loving the Ethereal Blade build for SF. Just need to get it in 13 minutes (after treads) to be effective
Speaking of ethereal blade, i've seen morphlings with that item. Is it really that good? I usually go for EoS :S
