Hey, so one of the couriers I had worked on a while ago is finally going to be submitted tomorrow, I'm pumped! Got another one coming within a week or two, but check out the Dota Cinema fails of the week vid to see a preview of the courier, (it's at 6:41) with a lot more pictures and a video of him tomorrow.

Was that some TI3 networking? Really great idea to cross-advertise. I'm hype and there is another one in the pipe

17 lh phantom lancer? How is that even possible?

[Satch]

Why'd you go for crit over getting an abyssal?

one of the little in-game guide things said to get it for daedalus and i always follow the guides because i dont know much else

i only (lol) have 255 hours so im pretty much still learning

 

[Emerson]

Patch notes?

 

[Schweinehund]

atleast you're reading the guides.

After bkb/basher I prefer heart on ursa, stacking health gives you more damage with his ult.

That would be amazing, would love to do that.

How so? He's one of the most impactful supports in the game. The ability to keep your entire team alive while at the same time not worrying about keeping yourself alive too much because of your ulti (which is a problem for most supports). Also if you play him as a 3-4 and get some farm while racking up the assists he becomes quite formidable in his own right.

I guess for laning he doesn't have much in the way of harass or zoning out compared to a ranged support, and yeah that's just a problem with melee supports in general. So I can see how you find that boring if you like being active and zoning out the enemy laners.

team fighting is ok cos i dont have to give a damn but oh man laning was boring. esp after i got myself killed cos timber lvl 2 is fucking op @_@

How come they don't pick teemo, I can't post Nigri pics if they don't pic teemo

teemo has been permanently banned from competitive

Sigh... in a game where fortunately everyone is communicating with voice chat. Another person and myself are support, I say I'll buy wards and ask if the other will buy chicken. "Sure thing" she says. Immediately someone comes back with "Since when do girls play DotA? I thought they just played LoL!" followed by the other two chiming in. Really? She didn't talk again all game; but was listening to me so we could at least coordinate things easier. Thanks MOBA community.

so did you get her number?

PSA: DON"T BUY THE QUIRT SUMMER KEYS - THE CHESTS HAVE EXPIRED

they really need to fix this
how hard can it be valve

[Hugstable]

YAY! Bought 3 of the new keys for the chests that have dropped for me and ended up getting the New Furion Staff, the Arcs of Mantra pack(!!!) and that awesome looking Diffusual Blade. So happy I got the Arcs of Mantra already though!

 

[KingKong]

man the new golems look REALLY cool http://i.imgur.com/NcjSS48.jpg

 

[Artanisix]

Looks awesome, would love to see more ingame pics of other items in this chest. Only other thing that looks cool to me is Mistblade.

 

[shira]

agree

 

[Schweinehund]

and here comes the karma win.

You know the other team is done when their mid comes to gank your lane and you kill him too. Dem whirling axes too stronk.


Those golems look awesome, really embody the dire look. I hope we have another microintensive summoning hero in the pipeline. Visage is really fun, I want to see a spirit summoner or something on radiant side.

you're such a troll picker

He's pretty much the best hero in the game eva. Something unusually satisfying about stunlocking someone to death or watching them run and chucking an axe at the back of their head.

[Hugstable]

LUCKY! I wanted the golem so bad, but I'm not gonna complain seeing as I got the Arcs of Mantra within my first 3 openings haha.

 

[shira]

[balladofwindfishes]

[SteveWinwood]

Well I guess not buying keys to show valve we're upset with them didn't work.

 

[balladofwindfishes]

THREE NP STAFFS IN A ROW

[Duesy]

I opened a chest and all i got was some jugg mask.

 

[CB3]

I got the Golems on key 2. I dont use Warlock but those things look great so i might have to look into him a bit more.

I want those golems but hearing about how most of you got em makes me 100% positive I won't get them so not even going to try.

 

[Shinypogs]

Bought two keys, got the mistral hair twice lol. Never again!


... I'm going to end up buying more keys aren't I?
