I can understand why Spirit Breaker has a the second highest win rate of all the heroes but why does Warlock have the highest? Kinda shocked me, i was expecting Lancer Cancer.

Pubs love to clump together and get destroyed by the golem.

Remember this?
Tobi's challenge has been accepted.

Someone analyzed that match and broke it down.

Great analysis!
I think I'm gonna give that match another watch tonight!

How would this run on my Macbook?

NVIDIA GeForce 9400M 256 MB
4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo


Badly?

Those specs are really low. could imagine it would "run" if you turned everything off.

Cheers, that's what I assumed. It's a late 2008 model Mac.

I think there will eventually be a lobby system like Warcraft 3 where you can play whatever, but if you buy a custom map stamp, you can join a matchmaking queue for the game modes that you paid for (and invite your friends for free).

Basically what CS:GO does with their map passes.

Sounds like the obvious implementation.


As for copyright infringing maps, it's not any different from custom models on the workshop. The community will be on first wave cleaning duty and the creators can request takedowns.

yes.


ppl traveling to TI3 where are you gonna stay, if there is a chance i go, ill need to room with someone if that's possible anybody would wanna group up? gaf room?

Your name won't show up in the compendium, it will be linked to the person that actually bought it in the store!

 

[Heavy's Sandvich]

Are Alliance the favourites then for TI3?

 

[M.D]

Is it worth the extra $1.3 ;o

 

[Tobe]

what? the compendium is worth 11.3 usd on the market, just buy it form the regular store.

 

[rhophiehalul78]

[A]lliance seems to be in poor form lately as opposed to Navi.

 

[M.D]

what? the compendium is worth 11.3 usd on the market, just buy it form the regular store.

Starts at $8.65 and there are loads at $8.70
Maybe it's because of the different regions

 

[NBtoaster]

Man jungle Bloodseeker is kind of terrible. You'll have no health in the first 10 minutes and you gain levels so slowly. And any camp that gets stacked kills you.

 

[Pixel Pete]

I'd love to get in to making workshop items (I'm a 3D animator professionally, so I guess that means something?) but I can already predict I'd rather just be playing Dota in my free time than making stuff for it......

...maybe I need another losing streak

 

[Skinpop]

Not going to have my main computer for TI3, so can't watch any of the games in the client. What's going to be the next best way? Heard Twitch slows down to a crawl and I guess it'll only be worse with packed streams.

Valve will stream it on Youtube live.

LGD china are rarer I think. Pretty sure I might have a spare Brax and 1437 but at work so not sure. Sylar is the last card I need

When browsing for live games, what does that chart in the middle mean, the one labeled 'All Pick'. Looks like two quarter-circles of stadium seating or something....

I have a similar laptop with a better VGA but worse ram/CPU. Dota 2 runs on medium flawlessy.

Those segments represent towers and lanes

The segments disappear when the respective tower dies

 

[Heavy's Sandvich]

Don't the remaining people in a match get accelerated gold for someone leaving?

 

[Shorty11857]

I think I have me a Sylar.

If you still have it tonight I can trade with you. Won't be back till like 11 30 UK time

I'm fuckin' dying over here. Are you serious? I'm not sure which bothers me more -- the idea that he thought it would work, or the fact there are probably people who will fall for this.

 

[F!ReW!Re]

If you still have his steam id / profile page please share it, don't think these type of people can be reported enough times.

 

[Ridli]

Yes, when you leave any gold you had is split among the remaining team. Along with your allowance that you get naturally as the game goes on.

I'm sure someone will still fall for this. there is also this one instance where someone added me, told me if I want to learn a "hack". The hack software will open all the chests I have after 2 to 4 hours he said. He kept reminding me that to run the software successfully, I must enter the correct email address that is connected to my Steam. I played along and he sent the software to my email. I'm a software developer so I know how this thing works and just ignored it anyway. Besides, it is very obvious that these kind of free items are too good to be true and are scams.

If you still have his steam id / profile page please share it, don't think these type of people can be reported enough times.

I have his page open in my Steam but his profile is set to private. Can't seem to see any other vital information.

Arghhh I hate Abbadon. His ultimate is damn annoying, how is it only a 40 sec cooldown is beyond my imagination

Should be a button on the top right of his profile saying "more" click that and report violation.

Thanks. I already reported him.

Ignore Abaddon when in ult. Generally, ignore most tanks in a teamfight and kill them last. It can be hard to notice somtimes but be alert whenever his ulti pops out and just walk with him and whack him when it deactivates.

Alright, since it's near The International, and I'm giddy as hell for it, let's make a fun little giveaway.

The best drawing of Windrunner (be it funny, sexy, or cute) gets all player cards for the Compendium. I'll be picking one in 2, 3 hours or so.

 

[BeesEight]

Why did you think it would be Phantom Lancer?

Even in competitive play he posts middling results at best. In pubs he's no more fearsome than any other late game carry who drags the game out and gets farm. I can't even remember the last time I've lost to a PL.

Yeah...glad in most pub games I've played nowadays everyone are smart enough not to attack him when his ulti pop.
