Support NeoGAF

[JustinBB7]

Yes, and it won't happen. As I pointed out yesterday.

Unless Valve makes the cut bigger. 50/50 or maybe 75/25, then they might get it. TI2 peaked around 580k or something, and I doubt 400k of those will spend the money.

Though we'll see. Valve might change something hopefully, or will add something them selfs perhaps.

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

Foodmother.

All dem spiders instantly died from the waning rift.

Stop trying to make it work guys. In her current state she's a shit hero - it's not gonna happen.

 

[TommyT]

gg already...

 

[BigAT]

Fnatic absolutely wrecked, 15 minute GG. Don't know what they were thinking with the Broodmother pick.

Agree. It's just too high a target for $10 spending. If the Compendium was $0.99 - $1.99, I'd say 400,000 *might* be possible. $10? nope.avi

Well that was quick.

Stop going orchid on her. Seriously. She's fine as long as you can pair her in a solo vs solo lane and start forcing rotations out of the enemy.

 

[SteveWinwood]

Of course the stretch goals will happen. Valve has the data to know what to expect. They didn't pick them at random hoping they'd get it.

 

[Radec]

The thing is Furion is much better at disrupting enemy pushes than Brood.

400,000 sales @ $10 per won't happen in Dota2 in 2013.

I saw the pick and immediately regretted my bet.

I'll bet you a common.

BRISTLE TREE SKYWRATH LETS GO

 

[Acinixys]

BB/Tree picked

This is gonna be good

 

[Dreams-Visions]

I'll bet you a common.

you're on!

A full rollback can still happen, they haven't decided yet but judging how those idiots injectoed a lot of money into the economy by buying lots of items... yeah a rollback will probably be in order.

The sooner the better... the last massive rollback Blizz had to do took two weeks and pissed off a lot of people (mostly HC players)

Sky and Bristle gonna shit on dem kids.

Yo your last 2 matches with her were 3 months ago. Before that 7 months ago (pre-nerf?) Certainly significant meta changes since then. I wouldn't say your data is conclusive. Though I suppose your point about Orchid stands. Also WTF at that 4 Vanguard build?

----

And OMG this draft. Tree, Skywrath, Bristleback, and Lycan all in the game!

Mostly private games that I've played Brood, I don't really play all that much MM.

Also don't doubt the Vangod.

 

[mkenyon]

Dota 2 store is closed. May they be adding more tickets?

WORST SPROUT EVER

 

[Dreams-Visions]

lol that LS drop-off. "cya!"

Dendi Skywrath now 4-0 in pro play, and that's not against chumps.

QPad, EG, and now Fnatic, all Skywrath victims.

 

[Lotto]

H4nn1 ditching Era GEGE

 

[Radec]

LOL. Douchebag Storm!

 

[Artanisix]

get bristled brah

 

[F#A#Oo]

Treant still needs more work to him tbh...lol as was said he ulti'd and they still lost the teamfight.

SM and BB are fitting in quite well which I'm surprised at...

Yeah. Skywrath definitely good, but I think they've only picked him in games where they weren't facing a Nyx. They've either had him or he's been banned. Against a Nyx picking Sky is a no-no.

 

[Artanisix]

Treant is fine, Undying/SD is an awful combo and will always be an awful combo.

 

[Dreams-Visions]

I don't know if Tree needs more. I do think Fnatic's plan was poor. They put him mid to try to shut down Sky, but then played him like a poor man's Tidehunter (no farm after a certain point), 2-trick pony. He's not a carry, so you don't expect him to do a lot of work offensively unless you farm him. Invis was never used offensively to set up team ganks or anything. SS and LS wasted a lot of time tping to defend towers instead of farming. I just feel like they misused Tree (or, underutilized his Q). One day teams will realize that he can invis the whole fucking team and take over jungles.

Anyway, Lycan and NP just kept them on their heels the whole game, and despite a few nice ganks on Sky mid, he was still huge in team fights and put in enough work for a 5/2/something outting.

Yeah. Skywrath definitely good, but I think they've only picked him in games where they weren't facing a Nyx. They've either had him or he's been banned. Against a Nyx picking Sky is a no-no.

I hear you but meh. This isn't pubs. Teams don't run Nyx mid and even if they did Sky will murder him when he hits 6. He's unlikely to be a real problem for Sky at that level of play, where sents are a regular purchase and support Nyx players have to go Blink as their first real purchase after boots. An underleveled support Nyx without dagon doesn't have the damage output to down an Atos Sky.

Magnus/PA in pubs is just so OP

Got a 5 man RP at +/- 15 minutes and after that it was GG

Every fight after that was me RPing 4/5 of them and PA blinking in and doing the dirty work. RP - Nyx stuns - teamwipe

Felt bad for them

All rage quit at 30 mins

I watched Merlini's stream the other day and everyone on his team (including himself) were doing terrible. Then the PA (a random) gets a Battle Fury crit and gets a triple kill with it. This keeps happening and they win the game.

The moral of the story? 15% chance for crit? Uhhhhhh huh, suuuuure.

Overgrowth + Vacuum, will it work normally like an RP(without the stun)?

I think SD is the exact opposite. People will always instantly disrupt the first person they see when it's off CD. It doesn't matter if they're stunned or if disruption will give their team time to rescue them they always seem to do it.
