don't even lie, you hit shuffle until i'm on your team and then start it without saying anything
 
The one thing I can say about gaffers that I have noticed, they don't cheat. They don't like ghosting. I have seen countless games where someone tried to ghost and a person in the game told them to stop. I recall ikuu and pro telling people to stop before. So I highly doubt anyone was feeding milk information. And haly isn't on mumble do definitely wasn't getting info

Playing some league and dawn gate tonight guys!
 
Just played as Chen against a Doom. I would have loved to see the look on Doom's face every time I sent the guy he doomed back to fountain.

One time I was doing rosh and someone announced it to everyone on mumble, I don't remember who.

So yeah they cheat!
 
I'm on Dawngate friend me up. This ancient ea account I'm using is called BETAPhoenix don't ask why.

I made a NeoGAF lobby because this fucking game doesn't have matchmaking and still uses lobbies.
 
i'm the thespot84 on there too. been winning handily since i got the hang of it, i think this favors dota player over LoL players, based on the pace of it

Edit: don't see a gaf lobby

Not gonna lie, I want to learn PA because this set looks fucking noice.

actually come to think of it "learning PA" involves very little work
 
Oh my god, just had the comeback of the century as Lone Druid. Nature's Prophet had our top rax down, was about to get bot pretty soon. We still had both T4 towers. We won a teamfight right outside of base, compete teamwipe. We had a Tiny with Scepter and me as Lone Druid. We went straight down the middle while they were all dead, got the T3, rax, both T4's, and won the game. Only their Tinker came back up in time to defend and we melted him.

Had my first team match and we won.

Was awesome. The other guys had played around 45 games and lost 15 matches. We were their 16th loss. Feels good mang.

Posed this question last night but no response...

Played batrider for the first time last night against OD...I lost mid but won the game. Is this supposed to be an unfavorable matchup for batrider? Just kept getting imprisoned for most of the laning phase and gave up first blood to him (by accident- totally misclicked). I did spam sticky napalm to keep OD from completely winning the lane and ganked the side lanes successfully.

OD just wins mid. I can't think of many heroes who beat OD. I guess Nyx would probably win it, since he can just mana burn OD right back and OD with no mana is a sad OD. Even with astral though, a good Bat should probably beat him as well. No offense intended, only you said it was your first game as him and from my bad play of the hero, he has a lot of nuances to him mid that you have to learn and only then does he destroy mid.
 
bat loses that matchup, nyx is 50/50 since od can just get rid of nyx's mana and no mana = no mana burn. Doesn't even matter if you bottle crow, you wont have enough max mana to burn unless you pick up arcanes, and OD won't let you do that.

Honestly, only few mids I can think of that beat OD are Sylla and sniper.
 
After we rebuilt our team, we had an amazing first game, I tried out Gyrocopter instead of Lifestealer.

http://dotabuff.com/matches/202656632

Okay, what is the downside of Gyrocopter? He is just so increadibly broken during all stages of the game, it's ridiculous.

I went Aquila -> Phase -> Dominator -> BKB -> MKB -> Satanic -> Butterfly. Is there any better set up?

I don't think there's any reason to get an MKB before butterfly when the other team has no evasion.

What do you mean by got reported? The other players told you they would report you? Or did you get a message saying you were sent to the low priority pool?

I've seen people whine because I wouldn't join their epic 1/2 vs 5 team fights and that they would report me and nothing ever came out of it.

I doubt you got sent in low priority for only being good...
Click to expand...

Just a message saying I had been reported on the left hand side of the screen.

That's what I don't understand, had a friendly game, got on well with my team, everyone was seemingly happy. Also, I'm not a good player but I played literally the best game I have ever played.

Oh well

None taken..I'm more curious on what a good BR would do to an OD? I was spamming sticky napalm for the most part but anytime I would be in range to harass...astral imprisonment...
 
Oh god what did milk do now.

*Edit: Oh, just for thread complaining. That should be a short ban.

Good games with Baha and 5olapp. Shadow Demon is such a good hero. I didn't even play that well but his skills can always be useful. It also helped that we stomped the other team with a beyond godlike Nyx. Crystal Maiden isn't my favorite support but that was a better game. I had 8 deaths but only one or two of them were from bad mistakes on my part, the rest from getting focused in teamfights which I am fine with — I'd rather Riki take me out instead of our carry.

I was about to say the same thing. The only thing I get sometimes is a thank you message saying they took action against people I reported and thank your for improving the experience.

Apparently, it was all added in a patch late April.

I'm not *good* by any stretch of the imagination but I don't act like a jerk and I play friendly, praise team mates, gg, don't feed opposing team etc.

Kind of sucks, apparently when reported it means you are muted and placed in low priority. I didn't even do anything ; _ ; lol

Skaters gonna skate

EDIT: Guess I'm just annoyed that I finally play a GREAT game (for the first time), personal best etc. and I get trolled for it

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think one report does anything. I think you have to get reported multiple times to have action taken against you.

Maybe you do, I honestly have no idea what I could have done to wrong anyone that game.
Oh well, guess I'm an awful person

EDIT: I feel like I'm in a relationship. In trouble but I don't know why :P
