Its np mode, "No Powerups. No runes spawn."

I want to see:

rv Reverse. You pick a hero for your opponent.

Would be interesting. "Yeah you, over there. Why don't you take a nice Gyrocopter? No? Jakiro or Silencer it is!"

 

[parasight]

It's just a shame because I enjoy playing the game a lot, but sometimes I don't enjoy playing with the people who play it. I'll be the first to admit I'm not that good at it, but I enjoy a nice hard fought match. Which is hard to find when everyone just wants to "end it fast" or AFK after deciding the game is over in the first 15 minutes.

 

[Complex Shadow]

I have no idea how people run into people this awful this often, most of my games go fine and I it's like 1/50 that someone goes psycho and abusive

LoLs worse. i chose a non-ranged melee adc. and my whole team gave me shit about it the whole game, infact the opposite team gave me the same amount of shit. " your team was fucked when you didn't chose a ranged adc". they were so pissy about it that they would go out of there way to steal cs from me. fucking who does that? whole game i had to put up with swearing. and eventually we won thanks inpart to what little farm i could scrounge up in the jungle. but yea i barely think about a LoL anymore.

Well, decided to take an hour to make a simple nether ward replacement I came up with. Simply added an Obelisk to the netherward. Though it does have 3 sides instead of 4 like a normal Obelisk, but its a Nether Reach Obelisk, whoooooooo *wavy hands*

I want your knowledge, it seems such an easy (once you know what you're doing) way to make some money.

How about a partnership? I come up with ideas, you do everything else, 90/10 split my way? =D

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

Just had the oddest sort of loss. Venomancer on the other team got fed huge first, ended up going something like 20+ and 5 (by far the most kills and best K/D ratio). He had a scepter and manta by the end of the game. He was on their bot lane (I was dire.) Problem compounded when all their people ended up get fed, including Tiny (ended up with scepter and AC), Anti-Mage (fucking everything), Phantom Lancer, and Earthshaker (scepter).

I was Naga Siren and did decent for a losing game. For some reason though, a guy picked Gyrocopter. It was SD, but still. He ended up like 5 and 20. Other teammates weren't so bad, and we were ahead on towers for awhile, but always behind in kills and just ended up getting demolished between the Poison Nova, Echo Slam, etc.

 

[fresquito]

Today I have tried Dazzle for the first time. Where's the love for Dazzle? I think he's an awesome support, but nobody picks him up.

In my level it's all carries everywhere, so...

Dota 2 Top 10 Weekly : Ep. 24
Number one is the best juke action ever.

 

[Archie]

Saw this on

Spoiler

/v/

That person also leaked a bunch of 6.75 balance changes. I don't think they're worth posting though since it is still a WIP.

 

[Tomat]

What are we even looking an here? A shitty old version of the game?

 

[Archie]

Presumably alpha screens.

 

[Detox]

I would pay good money to get those old icons back

 

[Dmax3901]

Some of the hero icons along the top of the screen there are terrifying.

 

[spiritfox]

Oh god those SK icons... someone please bring them back.

 

[Phandy]

Skeleton Kings icons are so pro.

 

[Taborcarn]

Poison Sting is still the best

 

[The_Player]

In case anyone interested in it.

[Pinko Marx]

Daaaaamn some big buffs to nyx. I just started playing him too. :3

 

[spiritfox]

* Shackleshot no longer has any effect if it fails to shackle the target

Well there goes all the pub windrunners.

 

[Ultrabum]

boots a shareable item? What so 15 min in you can buy the hard support veno boots or something?

 

[Deadly]

Well there goes all the pub windrunners.

That's what I was thinking too :lol People are going to get soooooooo mad when she misses her shackles.

 

[Tomat]

Looks like Doom is going to be viable again.

 

[FtHTiny]

boots a shareable item? What so 15 min in you can buy the hard support veno boots or something?

means chen is buying boots for everyone now.

 

[Train of Midnight]

Toggle Sanje&Yasha?

Bouncing Finger of Death?!?!?!?

Super Spiked Carapace???

BEST UPDATE EVER!

Not sure how I feel about the helm of Dominator change, however.

 

[red13th]

In case anyone interested in it.

Possible bomba highlights if true

Shackleshot wow.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

I hope most if not all of those changes are true. Will separate the Windrunner children from the Windrunner men. And Lion is awesome. So awesome he can finger two people at once.

 

[Train of Midnight]

And Lion is awesome. So awesome he can finger two people at once.

Giggity.

 

[Haly]

First picking Nyx all game every game.

 

[SaberVulcan]

Not sure how I feel about the helm of Dominator change, however.

I think it's to prevent a very rare strategy of multiple people going HOTD as their first item, and pushing with 3+ minions each and just destroying the bases.

Also, these Pit Lord change makes me happy:
* Replaced Expulsion with Summon Shade (needs new name!)
* Reworked Firestorm (not channeling, doesn't hurt buildings, rebalanced numbers, heals allied units)

 

[The_Player]

Could anyone remind me website with 3d Models of Dota 2 heroes?

 

[Schweinehund]

I like the Helm change, makes it easier to jungle until you can find that wolf to dominate.

 

[BigAT]

Why would you ever want to toggle off Sange and Yasha?

 

[Pai Pai Master]

Why would you ever want to toggle off Sange and Yasha?

Not an on/off toggle, but a stats toggle like Power Treads.

 

[Epix]

I want to see:

rv Reverse. You pick a hero for your opponent.

Would be interesting. "Yeah you, over there. Why don't you take a nice Gyrocopter? No? Jakiro or Silencer it is!"

Reverse Draft would be kinda cool.

 

[BeesEight]

Those are certainly some interesting changes. Still don't think that unstable change will help Alchemist.

 

[Train of Midnight]

I think it's to prevent a very rare strategy of multiple people going HOTD as their first item, and pushing with 3+ minions each and just destroying the bases.

Oooh, okay. I like that now. Makes much more sense.

 

[pieatorium]

ZUEESS

feeds first blood


darer vs clg on tobis stream btw

 

[Balehead]

That's definitely something new, and off to such a strong start too...

 

[Artanisix]

Those changes are great.

* Take Aim from 65/130/195/260 to 70/140/210/280

But this, this is the best one.

 

[Schweinehund]

After reading over it, I really like the nyx changes, the BR strength gain seems like a pretty big buff. Lycan changes are minor but could hit him hard in the early game (the new HoTD could be great on him to use as a pushing tool, grabbing a disposable wolf/centaur/goblin priest to push with would be insane, this would mean forgoing your vlads)

Quill Spray damage cap increased from 220 to 300

^Look forward to that when they put BB in.

Dream patch notes would be mana reduction on kunkkas skills. He seems to be extremely mana starved for a strength hero.

Also pleased that LD has avoided any changes.

 

[The_Player]

KotL, AA, Zeus; good times. Even though Darer aren't the top team in the world of Dota, I have to give them kudos for bringing such tricky picks to life.

 

[Balehead]

Zeus using ulti to KS just like in pubs.

 

[Anbokr]

doom change best change

i will now only play sf, doom, pl, and dk; ezzzz.

 

[JustinBB7]

Those changes are not 100% confirmed right?

Either way, if the Doom one is true that would be amazing, he can use a buff to make him more viable again.

 

[Archie]

Zeus new meta.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

Those changes are not 100% confirmed right?

Either way, if the Doom one is true that would be amazing, he can use a buff to make him more viable again.

Even if they're legitimately leaked, they're always subject to change. Icefrog doesn't plan on updating to 6.75 until some time after TI2 and there could be plenty of these changes removed or revised by then.

 

[Artanisix]

Yeah the leaker did say that's update 17 of 34. So, if real, there's a lot changed from that point.

 

[Sanjay]

Some one said that Slardar is a bad carry and can be out-carried by Mirana, your fucking crazy. Slardar is a pimp with a stun and bash, any hero with a bash is overpowered!

 

[Archie]

Someone tell Tobi that Weezer past Blue Album (and maybe Pinkerton) sucks.
