Really...wow...Is it actually hard to do though or does it just necessitate a tp when you hook? Guess I'll be seeing more of that soon.



Chen needs to port Pudge back, and Pudge needs to hook at the exact moment he is porting out
 
Guys does anyone know how I can fix this problem I'm having? Sometime yesterday I could no longer find a match or create a lobby and it continues to persist. I can press the buttons and the game just doesn't do anything, at the moment I have to have someone else in my party and they set everything up.

I did it 2 days ago with my friend, it's really hard to do and if you fail, you're always down 1 player. The Slardar on the enemy team said he was gonna report me for abuse, but it's not abuse, Valve left it in on purpose.

yep, it seems more like a "lucky shot" and not really a thing you can do everytime.
 
Played Riki for the first time yesterday. Had some fun but melee units seem to give me some trouble. Getting within range of everyone seems to get me raped quite a bit.
 
Fuck those people who feed for the first 10 min and then leave the game with no comment. Every fucking game I get one of these.
/rage

sounds like you're in the low tier bracket yo. that shit never happens to me. Try playing with other people who won't leave.

At one point for me it was mostly the opposing team having someone quit, resulting in abandonment before we even had a chance to win

God that was a frustrating week.

there are functional brackets?

also, I find it happens sometimes as a consequence of people connecting from distant countries...or simply running out of time to play. it can be hard to block out 30 minutes uninterrupted sometimes.

There's low/mid/high tier games based on how many wins you have, from what I've heard
 
It's not just number of wins, but personal statistics I think.

I am only about 50/50 but when I play by myself I'm usually in the mid bracket and when I queue with Milk or Procarbine I'm matched up against the most awful tryhards.

Not that I play by myself anymore so that may have changed.

I believe its based on your performance. I started in Low skill, went mid, then high... then a friend that was completely new to dota got in and we queued and lost a lot of games which put me back to mid then low....and now I'm back in mid again. So I don't believe its based solely on wins, more like recent performance per bracket.
 
Go to replays and sift through them by bracket. You'll find out if most of your matches are in High, Mid or Low.

Also they're all pretty different animals really. Of course there's overlap but you can really feel when you're in High, or Low.
 
Funny how all trashtalkers are begining to play furion, the new Anti Mage. So fucking imba, you cant do anything to stop him from farming. I killed that fucker 10 times and still he has a deso, deadelus, sheep, midas and threads in 30 mins.

Nerf now

Pick NS.
 
Few things about tiers and stuff:
There is a hidden mmr, the tiers indicate what range of hidden mmr (or ELO, or DOTA2SKILL, or whatever you want to call it) the teams had.
There is a difference between high tier games and other high tier games (or mid and mid games etc), the page number on the watch tab is usually a good indication of hidden mmr with the first pages having the highest mmr.
(with page 1 being slightly distorted due the amount of spectators also being a factor when deciding the order of the game)
Fun fact: Inhouses are in the low skill bracket.

Aren't all custom games in the low bracket? :p

Any other really really noobish players want to band up for some vs Bot matches late tongiht? Around midnight EST?

I can always rock some hard champs in bot games. Midnight is usually when my friend abandons me anyway.

Not sure what the best method of finding someone on steam is but my current name is BEES ハチ with an avatar of a clockwork smoking companion cube with a top hat.

Should try to finish the game asap when theres a furion.
 

troll account confirmed, a prophet who has died ten times in thirty minutes won't have the momentum to have the farm you claim him to have.

requesting swag add at the very top of the OP, "Put Coolhwip on ignore for spreading bad information and being a liar" before he starts giving out terrible advice to newbies

Will the return from X Mark the spot stop channeling, even if the person doesn't move at all?

try x marking the spot a team mate who is tping from the fountain. hilarious lols ensue.

Also, Eul's is my favorite item on casters. 30 Move Speed, large mana regin, and a good bump to the mana pool, and a tornado for less then 3k? Yes please!

Zeus? Eul's. Omniknight? Eul's. CM? Eul's. Venomancer? Eul's. Leshrac? Eul's. Lich? Eul's.

Eul's Eul's Eul's Eul's Eul's. Best item.
 
Invoker is still fun as hell to play, even if it makes you feel dirty just for playing it. I guess playing against an AM makes it more okay!
