Love me some side-lane Pudge.



That was an interesting edit. Why are you hating on everyone?
 
Just got an invite after waiting since sign-ups from the International. Load it up and can't create lobbies, join games or spectate ones in progress. Sigh

Question about the periodic Gaf inhouses: are there beginner ones or are they mostly just seasoned HoN/Dota players?

A very varied mix of both + milkman honorary freefarm status. You'll fit right in, assuming you have a thick enough skin for stupidity!

Well, I haven't played Dota1 since 2004 and only played League of Legends occassionally (and against bots too, to my great shame). So, I'll probably be the one perpetrating a great deal of stupidity.

Are there inhouses every night or just around the weekend?
 
You didn't watch his stream often, right?

Edit: Oh man WE's brood play so bad ...
wtf is wrong with this game

I never watched streams till a few days ago. First Live stream of a pro I watched was EG DeMon's like 3 days ago. And today is my second one, and it's Link :P
 
Having never played Dota or any over moba I knew there'd be a lot to learn but damn my first experience was fun. Just played against easy AI and got pummeled, I've watched enough tournaments to have a basic idea of what's happening and what to do but the mechanics befuddle me for now. So used to games where you target units differently, and I didn't figure out how to interrupt/adjust my auto attacks (played as Chen in very first game) to get last hits so I couldn't farm properly. Abilities and items are obviously a total mystery but I'm sure that'll come later. I did kill one of the bots by getting my creeps on him, hitting the spell that increases his damage I think and using the ulti when we were low on health. For an absolute noob like me it was satisfying a least. ;)

The main interface is sweet, I loved just watching some presumably really good players in their live match. Runs great on my modest PC, Im likely off to buy a new keyboard this afternoon (won some $ playing poker last night, going to get the Tt Meka g1) but I already can't wait to play some more.
 
Anyone having problems with the minimap not working. nothing works on it, no map drag, clicks or anything.
Also cant drag-select boxes either. Guy playing ophelia is fucked.
2 people I'm playing with cant either.

So fucking broke.

I heard that someone said if you watched a replay before, this bug would happen. It happened to me when I joined a game after watching. Were you watching a replay? Restarting dota worked for me, like others had said.

Happened to me twice already. Haven't watched a replay in over a month.
 
AM's ulti also damages enemies around the hero he uses it on. Though not a lot though (depending on how much mana they have) That's why it's so amazing he got a triple kill with it.
yeah that was really amazing.

btw just owned some people on pub with Viper, 7 - 2. I prefer to press QQQQQ instead of alt+Q everytime.
 
SingSing's stream is so hard for me to watch. On top of his god-awful Dutch accent he comes across as so mindnumbingly stupid. The shit that he spouts is so awful.
