nawww :3

Wonder if that taunt is the Compendium taunt.
 
Of course I get a crappy Witch Doctor mask that I already have and a mediocre Warlock staff.

At least that gives me full fodder for future bets between my 3 Omni hammers and the extra mask.

I've asked this a few times before but never got a reply.

Where do you guys look for interesting dota streams?
What channels can I find cool tournament matches on?
Any specific links to matches that had really interesting strategies in a tournament?

If you don't know what to look for twitch seems as useless as youtube, tens of thousands of videos that can't quality as anything other than white noise.

I'm preferably looking for streams with good narration.

Bottom right. Click whatever is at the top of the list.
 
Greetings Dota-GAF, long time lurker finally got an account approved. 800+ games played, but I know I still probably suck.

Just when I was thinking I was starting to get good, I go 4-10 last night on my second time ever as Broodmother. I just wasn't good enough in a solo lane. Especially when their crystal maiden was on point with sentry wards

All Pick

Well the heroes everyone has been greyed out over for the past minute and a half look decent, I'll cement my Bane pick

Okay guys, twenty seconds, pick guys

Guys

Guys why are you spinning to random heroes now?

Sniper? Eh, alrght

Riki...

Drow

DROW

YOU WAITED TILL FIVE SECONDS AND TOOK DROW WITH A SNIPER ALREADY ON THE TEAM

Jesus christ I need to stop playing All Pick

Yeah, in all pick games people usually take the hero they want to play and don't care about team balance at all. I'm in the trench and it can get worse where 4 out of 5 will lol and hit random and get characters they can't play properly.
 
Fixed illusions being able to upgrade to flying courier?

WTH is that?

From Reddit:
There was a exploit where if you bought a flying courier recipe and made illusions of your self (through disruption for example), then sold the recipe and bought a standard courier you got a flying courier(as the illusion still had the recipe which upgraded the courier)

Basically, it was a cheacky way for Naga/Shadow Demon to get a free flying courier upgrade.
 
I love that spider <3 Nice to see the other sky set get in as it was much more popular :)

pffffffffffft

The one that got in for this patch pales in comparison. Hopefully we'll see yours in sooner rather than later. It really was fascinating to watch some of the process for its creation. The attention to detail in comparison is very noticeable to my eyes.

people will do the same in SD or RD. 2 carries drafted in RD? watch in amazement as the last 3 picks are carries/semi's.
 
I have a dendi rookie card. Trade you for two puppeys and a foil merlini.

Ok, here are some lines for the cards:
"StampPlayerCard" "Use on Compendium"
"DOTA_PlayerCard_Activate_Compendium" "You have not activated your International Compendium. Right click the Compendium item to activate it."
"DOTA_PlayerCard_Failed" "Failed to use this player card."
"DOTA_PlayerCard_Confirm" "Are you sure you want to stamp this Player Card into your Compendium? The Player Card will be destroyed upon use."
"DOTA_PlayerCard_No_Compendium" "Stamping a Player Card requires an International Compendium. Would you like to go to the store to purchase one?"
"DOTA_PlayerCard_Already_Stamped" "You have already stamped this played into your Compendium."


Also, the Taunt is for Pudge.
"DOTA_Item_Taunt__Shake_Your_Money_Maker" "Taunt: Shake Your Money Maker"
"DOTA_Item_Desc_Taunt__Shake_Your_Money_Maker" "Watch as Pudge \"Shakes his Money Maker\" while his foes cannot look away!
 
Oh so it's to fill those pages at the end of the compendium with more players. Hmmmm interesting.

My bet is the pages will be added automatically, but you will be able to add a little stamp to each page that gives some minor reward.

Why would the patch be 2GB, Valve just needs to change a text file.

It's E3 week too. Valve finally going to end the this beta and release Dota 2.
 
3 bugs fixed? this game is dead. valve is working on something else

That's my biggest fear with dota honestly, lol. With the way Valve has described their company's structure/projects, if their small group of devs just gets disinterested or moves to another project, dota hits limbo HL3 style.

I guess Icefrog could just update dota 2 solo with his few testers like he has been with dota 1 ;).
