Support NeoGAF

[Manus]

I hope we get another chest soon so I can waste some money on keys.

 

[balladofwindfishes]

I hope they add the 40 something sets they still haven't added to the drop system. Eventually we'll escape Omniknight bracers and Blood Seeker off hands, but they're so slow to add new items to water down the pool.

And I want that Gandalf hat to drop in price!

 

[SteveWinwood]

so if you exclusively play support, can you go to very high ? just noticed that last hits are counted.

That's just what valve surfaces in the api so the website uses it as well.

We don't know what valve looks at to determine your skill level, but I would really doubt it's exclusively K/D and cs, because that would be really dumb and they're better than that.

 

[solid mike]

I can't wait till they put Pit Lord. Good farmer, decent disable and that tele ult.

 

[Artanisix]

Good inhouses last night guys, was a lot of fun running my NO DYING ALLOWED STRAT.

This is not Valve's site, they don't use this at all.

Your an asshole milk for picking those picks

 

[shira]

Any good players on twitch that commentate while they play live?

Iceiceice, but he might stop streaming Friday

 

[Monochromaticx]

Dendi is streaming right now and is commentating.

 

[SteveWinwood]

What's the no dying strat?

SK, dazzle, undying, Dragon knight (?), ...

I dunno.

 

[Arkanius]

Rat doto is best doto
Not even Lifestealer can save you

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

Guessing SK, Dazzle, Abaddon and any of Chen, Wisp, Naga (or Undying if you want to go literal.)

Also could include Weaver (probably should be with the first 3) and Morphling. Maybe Bristleback.

 

[SteveWinwood]

I forgot abanddon was a thing.

 

[Procarbine]

It was
Abbadon undying tree cm razor

 

[close to the edge]

If iceiceice is the last player for DK they will be the best team since forever.

A team with icieiceice, Mushi, BurNIng, LaNm and MMY. Jesus. Those are like my 5 favorite players in the Asian scene. LaNm will probably have to play support in that team, since he plays pretty much everything. I really hope icex3 makes it into that team. The only problem with that is that he might not be streaming anymore.

Neat site. My last hits/denies are pretty awful. I need to play more carry/mid, I play mostly support or offlane, especially when I play with friends.

Any good players on twitch that commentate while they play live?

Draskyl (listens to a lot of dad rock, looks like Walter White)
Blitz (he's gonna go to Korea soon, hope he'll stream from there, listens to Ellie Goulding)
SingSing (depending on who you ask, he's either hilarious or childish and not funny, generally no music)

 

[LiQuid!]

I just played a pub with a Warlock that sounded EXACTLY like Benicio del Toro!!!

 

[ViviOggi]

What's the difference between indexed and semi-indexed matches?

 

[Internets]

Is there any way to get more than 2 reports? I've just had multiple games in a row where people were verbally harassing for 30 minutes non-stop, literally, no exaggeration. It's not even to me, but to other people.

Keep reporting people, if they get muted you get 2 more reports. I always have never ending reports because of this.

Nope gaf is all pros in very high skill level.

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

Whatever you do, do not believe everything you read in the OP.

I'm new to dota too. Haven't gotten a game in with gaffers, but have some some low lvl mm (mixed matches?) with some of the giantbomb community. I think you could just find the neogaf chat room in game and ask for low level matches.

 

[Principate]

just had a game with 4 divine rapiers 4 motherfucking divine rapiers, it was like everyone was buying them and dropping them like shit. So stupid and crazy. Despite us being heavily in the lead they had natures prophet and lancer so they had amazing split push potential, and for some reason whenever we won a fight decisive I couldn't manage to get anyone to push properly they all just went their separate ways.

At one point we had the accident exposed so our carry void decided to leave his teammates to die in order to finish it off without a creep wave and he failed miserably. We eventually won but that was a crazy crazy game.

 

[Shorty11857]

44 - 2

Well Power Rangers certainly...showed up

Of course! Grab a chair. Read some guides, watch some videos. Ask some questions.

dota's a hard game guys

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

I love these B/C-tier games. People pick the craziest shit.

 

[SteveWinwood]

dota's a hard game guys

it's not THAT hard

it's not differential equations

i mean it's hard, but not impenetrable

 

[dekjo]

It's calculus hard

 

[SuperAndroid17]

6 game losing streak is no fun

 

[Hylian7]

I'm streaming now!

 

[balladofwindfishes]

2 hours until LC, 15 new item sets and a new HUD...

Spoiler

[Gully State]

It's organized sports hard.

GAF inhouses - trial by fire.

 

[Sanjay]

GAF inhouses - trial by fire.

It gives you a chance try out odd builds and new heroes like Timbersaw and finding out how strong of a hero he is, you just press buttons and people die around you.

And nothing beats killing each other, that salt taste so good.

 

[balladofwindfishes]

and winter wyvern

Winter Wyvern is my most wanted hero since Abaddon was added

Not many supports left, so I cling to what I can.

 

[TommyT]

LOLOLOL Hylian! That knocked up NS into Chrono... Awkward indeed.

 

[SteveWinwood]

Oracle!

Isn't arc warden more of a support too? I guess he's like a nuker ganker maybe? No clue what he is.

 

[KingKong]

I'm super excited for the Ember Spirit and Earth Spirit. Hope IceFrog adds another 2 mobile nature spirits for a full spirit team

 

[balladofwindfishes]

Isn't he out of WC3 panda models?

 

[Drkirby]

I hope they add the 40 something sets they still haven't added to the drop system. Eventually we'll escape Omniknight bracers and Blood Seeker off hands, but they're so slow to add new items to water down the pool.

Don't worry, there could be 10000 options and you will still get Omniknight bracers half the time.

Isn't he out of WC3 panda models?

Why do all the Spirits have to be Pandas?

 

[Schweinehund]

ain't going to be no patch. Valve taking a break from their labor day partying.

There's already a patch confirmed. There's a fix to workshop submissions with rare idle animations not working and a fix for the currently in-game items effected by it.

It's just a matter of if it comes with a new hero or new sets or anything else cool.

next week valve time.

 

[electroshockwave]

Cliff jungling prophets are the dumbest thing. I'm watching a friend's match right now and the prophet has cleared one large camp (radiant side) in the 2 minutes I've been watching him. He blocked the spawn with when he left his treants idle after killing it. At 13 mins in he is level 5 and has treads, a ring of protection and some regen items. And the thing is it's so stupid that I never think to check for it when an enemy NP does it. I should just ward the radiant cliff every time I see Furion on the other team.
