? unlike other mobas, dota supports experimentation and novel play styles, like position 1 rubinch

we already had three other position 1s

Someone please tell me a legit way to calm down and not rage and flame in this game, I'm currently in a week-long comms ban and it's maddening

I play a round or two of street fighter/double dragon/watch a video or two if i had a truly horrible game.

There was a reddit post some time ago that explained how you can mute yourself, sounds like you're looking for that, if you can deal with the fact that nobody can hear you.

One game a night.

If you lose, oh well, you won't lose a second time.

If you win, fuck yeah, you won all your games for the night!
 
play single draft, random draft, and all random, accept that the game and everyone who plays it is shit, and play on your own terms

it's easy to detach yourself emotionally

honestly, i have been on pretty bad tilt the last couple of days and the person who I try and emulate is merlini. dude never gets mad and always looks at what he could have done better. the more you practice not getting mad at your teammates the better you get at it.

ALSO, watch your own replays. once you see all the dumb shit you do, you become much more forgiving of others.

Trying out YouTube streaming. Playing Rocket League for now, might do Dotes later. Let me know how it looks please. One of my friends says it just says error for him, but others say they can see it.

i dunno what your bitrate is, but it seems a bit low for such a visually quick/spectacular game. Otherwise looks fine to me.
quality definitely drops in high movement.

this is the bitrate issue afaik

360p option. Twitch forcing 1080p is idiotic

I hope that it makes IHL more strimer friendly

more strimer friendly as in people from germany cant watch ihl there?

e/ well I can watch live streams on youtube but not on youtubegaming. This just makes no sense at all

Bitrate was at 3500 kb/s, upping to 4000 kb/s. I'm also changing the option on YouTube from "Optimize for interaction (less latency)" to "Optimize for less viewer buffering" to see what happens there (seemed pretty delayed even with the previous option).

Also I have always been using 3500 kb/s on Twitch, wonder why it gets blocky on YouTube.

Edit: Game is switching to Arma 3 now.

I'm planning on giving it a try in about 30 minutes.

Javascript is logical, yet annoying sometimes.

Python is totes legit.

Python is my 'I'm doing this for enjoyment and not getting paid' language. It's great.

My day job is industrial controls though, so a completely different thing from javascript or python. On the one hand we have better variable naming conventions than the examples in this thread, and the math is like preschool/kindergarten level for the most part. On the other hand we get to experience the joys of debugging hardware and software at the same time.

I have played around with some node.js and stuff a little, but I still don't fully understand why anyone would use server side JS over python or ruby, hell even PHP. I get that web developers are used to the DOM and I get the benefits of having a single codebase for client side and server side, but ugh, javascript.
