Why is this good news? Just more tourneys to watch?

Means DOTA2 might go big in Korea, further cementing it as the one MOBA to rule them all.

And will help to dethrone LoL, since Korea is one of their major strongholds.
 
didn't valve say at some point that if you queue with someone, then the party's mmr isn't carried with individual players? or am i imagining things

either way, getting someone out of the trench is one of the worst things you can do for the community in general. whenever that person starts playing alone, he's just gonna have his team get stomped and eventually be dragged back to where he belongs. and it's pretty sad when you can easily spot whoever is getting carried on a party as well

if someone can't get out of the trench alone, he doesn't deserve to be in the higher brackets. it's that simple
 
Anyone here going to International 3? Can you help do a swag run for me? Would love to have some of the merchandises there. Will pay you for it + shipping.
 
Whatever the government funds and whatever the Korean mafia can best manipulate for gambling profit will win over.

There's a Korean Mafia? O_o

When I read about Korean gaming habits it sounds a lot like some of the scene the US and Europe had with arcades and pinball except with more time and money being spent.
 
Does the console confirm or anything if you put in the auto-spectate correctly?
I wanted to set it up to watch The Defense Season 4 tomorrow, but dunno if it worked. I used:

dota_spectator_auto_spectate_games 51

Nope, it doesn't really print anything. Just plug it in and you will be good.

The thank you dialog for successful reports has been updated and now makes reference to the fact that you now earn an extra report back if one of your reports resulted in action being taken against the player.

YES

Yesssssssssssss

Finally can play this game again.
 
Why are people on here saying Compendium MM is better than standard? Is it simply because of the hero selection forcing balanced teams?
 
Hey guys, got some new Dota 2 news for you. If you go into All Pick, everyone picks carries no matter what. Just thought you guys might want to know.

?_?

How do you know if an update is a test or main client?

Like the one today.
Test client updates almost always precede main client updates, almost always on Wednesdays (with the main client getting it on Thursday if nothing is found that's too gamebreaking). Main client updates also have changelogs that show up on dota2.com when the update is pushed out.

Cool, thanks.

I'm looking forward to testing the new auto cast although I'll probably never use it.
 
Sad loss. I started out destroying everyone on the other team as balanar, as he should, but then they started 5-manning and picking us off, and our only carry, lucifer, spent his 35ish minutes in the jungle getting scepter refresher.
 
They need to add in a system that docks hours off your chat ban if you successfully chat ban someone else. Just make this whole fucking circus a new meta game.
 
Slark needs no nerf as he's not overly usefuls in higher brackets unless you want to pick a hero who can lane againt Batrider. Gyro on the other hand is just utter BS. His rocket barrage makes it insanely difficult to get close to him early game, his ultimate es well. Flak cannon + Call down carries him into the late game way too well. He's just crazy strong at every point of the game and so easy to use.
 
Every time I try to play Gyro it never turns out. Dunno if it's me, or my team, or what. My records with other hard carries (Luna, AM, Morph, PL to name a few) are all very high. Gyro just seems to crash and burn in my hands though.
 
I wouldn't mind a Gyro redesign, even if only partial. Just to make him different. Homing Missile is kinda useless and could use some love. There's lots of space to make new abilities with his theme.

Also: Orange vs. Rattlesnake on now. BTS Stream.
