Are you making an argument that people should take melee carries with void on the basis that he is going to hit all of his chronos such that the key heroes to be attack are perfectly on the edge of the chrono? That's incredibly idealistic. When you are in a teamfight and you are ulting as void your primary objective is getting as many of the enemy inside it as possible. Perfectly getting some of their heroes at the perfect edge of the chrono so that your melee carries can also dps is them is ridiculous. I mean do people at the very least understand the point I am making that its overall a better choice to not have multiple melee carries on a team when you have a void based on the opportunity cost of not having a ranged carry?

Don't play hard carry if you can't handle the heat.

Or solo q less for less qq

I redeemed a code thinking i would be able to register and download when i get home

I think it should be registered if you make it to the part where it wants you to download the installer.

I'm ready to destory some Bindings and capture the spirit fountains.

no bro don't forget my top two recommendations, John carter was just #3:

1) I am Number Four
2) Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter- best fucking scene ever. Ok this isn't scifi but still. Like everyone and their mother needs to see this movie right now, it's pure comedy gold.

SARCASM SIGH, but seriously, Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter is pure bonified liquid gold

I mean once you've already seen Star Wars, Star Trek, Avatar, Source Code, District 9, and Moon (and you've already seen all these); what's left?
 
What hero would be a good pub room harasser if my team didn't have the best communication?

Last question. Honestly! Coming from fighting games, I find dota fucking fascinating. Just wanna have a go to way to stop obvious things like quick creep farming and creep pulling.
 
I was going to say john carter was actually good but then he recommended those movies. wtf

yes there are no scifi movies outside of moon and star trek

Watch Primer. I'm pretty sure it's still on Netflix.

I'd say Riki is the ultimate pub ganker. If the enemy team refuses to buy detection and has people constantly farming by themselves (i.e. most pub teams) then you will likely do very well.

*Edit: Shit, I read that as "good pub roam harasser." Don't know if my answer still applies...

Pretty much any hero that you can take mid and be successful with (i.e. Shadowfiend, QoP, Templar Assassin, etc...). Or any hero with an invis.

inception, alien, aliens, the thing, robocop, artifical intelligence, the newer dune mini series, pandorum are pretty cool.

Out of all those I recommend dune for heavy science fiction.
 
Also..anyone who has an ipad or android tablet go download

Heroes of order and chaos, its a lol/dota ripoff, its fucking fun though haha. only flaw i noticed was targeting heroes was a little tough, but its pretty funny

I haven't seen Riki picked in ages, tbh.

You must be good, because the people I play with are awful and are still at the point of "this guy looks nifty imma play him".

Which is fine, but Random Draft makes it so that the playing fields are a little more level, at least at my skill level because a lot of people are playing heroes they're not the most comfortable with. Not saying I'm good or anything, because I suck.
 
AP is the best pub mode. It's like AR but you can just turn on your try-hard hats whenever you want. Rd is awful, SD is the absolute worst, AR is fine, LP is only slightly annoying.
 
AP gets better the higher up the ladder you go, because better players are less likely to tryhard AP (they save their tryhard picks for CM).

At the Upper Plat/Diamond level, people actually play to have fun.

EDIT: That said, I have a tendency to choose Nyx in AP because my teammates are too busy randoming shit they can't play. You all know who you are.
