Worst hearthstone pack ever 2 commons, 2 rares I already had. Ended up dusting all 5
No, after a while most pack end up just being 40 dust and thats it. 4 Commons and 1 Rare, all of which you already had.

Overthrow is pretty great. 5v5v5 is a lot of fun. They are short games so people usually stick it out until the end.
I've also had fun with "Dota 2 Horde Mode", but it's unbalanced as fuck right now (You basically need cleave + crit + a shitton of damage to win, any other strat gets you killed).
I wish that people would spend some time on the actual map though. There are tons of arena/coop maps that have unique heroes and items – which are pretty cool – but the map itself looks like it was drawn in the editor in 5 minutes.

They nid custom links dh4axnxbldo is dum
Yeah, agreed. Twitch had custom links by default, but this is kind of shitty. I'm sure it's coming at some point.

It's so damn confusing...I can't find any dota wtf is this shit.youtube gaming ui is
Going against deathball strats is the worst. 3-4 people dive you mid constantly and people TP too late and you still die regardless. Hard carry can't farm, you've already lost.
The main reason they are so frustrating is because in solo pubs, people are unlikely to play well as a team, so they lose to these things.
Edit: Whoever it was from here that said the garbage in the YouTube chat that I removed, real classy.

Bro we are all here to help you out with building a PC. I mean shit, Haz posts here. You're in good hands. Take the plunge and build it! It's basically just grown up Legos (with hundreds of dollars in parts).
The new pc thread even has pre-made builds. Your first time building one will probably only take three or four hours depending on what you want to put in there. Dat feel when you turn your new PC on for the first time hngggg
Done with overthrow until they remove OP hereos from it.
Horde mode is widly unfair and buggy.
Still waiting for the good shit to be made.

yeah, and even if Haz and others weren't here, it's something common enough now that there's a plethora of guides. The only difficult parts are selecting your parts, cable management (depending on your case) and trying to interpret your MoBo's error codes (which hopefully isn't even necessary).
Building a PC is basically a oversized Lego set. The hardest part is normally screwing a motherboard to a case, which is pretty easy.
Mount Mother Board, screw in power supply, put the case's cables where the Motherboard's manual says to plug them in, put in the CPU and push in the RAM, snap off a piece of metal and slot in the GPU, slide the hard drive into the bay and screw in, put in your optional optical drive, attach the Sata cables, put all the power cable into the holes they fit. Done.
Buying parts isn't to hard, Haz can likely point you at some guide that says what parts are the best value right now.

My first PC took me a few hours to put together. The only real part that gave me trouble was me not connecting my CPU power.
Beyond that it was amazing turning on my first computer.
Second one was also great, but of course took a lot less time since I had put the whole thing together from scratch before.

This for sure, my second PSU was 1000w and modular, case also has nice cable management built into it. Never looked back.

yeah, pretty much. At this point this'll probably be my next "upgrade" since I could really use the air flow with my tiny case.
For real I still freak out every time I have to do it and I've been building my own PCs for well over a decade.
Oh god both of these. The worst is those stock Intel CPU fans that have the little plastic locking things. I use a Hyper 212+, but before that I used stock fan.

Hey guys, has anyone tried Discord yet? it's a new program that's basically the evolution of ventrilo/mumble/teamspeak. I was skeptical at first but I just gave it a whirl and honestly it seems pretty awesome and useful.
Check out the features here: https://discordapp.com/
I set up a GAF server here if anyone wants to join. You can use it both in browser and/or with the app.
https://discord.gg/0TtGqYNIO7pxdLai
the link is only active for 24 hours but I will make some people mods that join up and they can continue inviting more GAF dota players.
I think it would be cool to have basically due to it being easier to access than the other programs I mentioned, and it would be nice to have an open chat channel(s) for people to talk and seek games, then instantly join the voice servers if you wanna chat with voice to shoot shit or during the game itself.

Ksan would be proud
Green artifacting included?
Fuck QoP though, hate playing as her, hate playing against her even more.

2 cs value ult
oh FUCK.
When I got to this part, I tried to lock it in gently about three or four different ways angling my hands just so, and just couldn't get it to lock. I had to walk away from building because I was becoming stressed. Stress level was already high because while I was putting it together, I was wearing socks on my carpet, my room mate came out and saw me and was like WHAT ARE YOU DOING! so I became paranoid about static.
Came back 20 minutes later, tried a few more times, got frustrated and said FUCK THIS and slammed that latch down. My face when it worked

I think techies is the only hero I can confidently win games at. I should just become broxy and spam him

I played like complete and total shit this match. I should have practiced attack animations, cast points, etc before I played Lesh as I haven't touched him in forever. On top of that I need to gain a better sense of how to play the hero.
The match was so long and tiring though that I honestly didn't even care that we lost by the end of it.
He's actually a good hero in pubs. I played him the other day and it worked out really well. Radiance miss chance helps him out quite a bit too. Aghs is not a bad deal either. I thought when it was first introduced that it would be foolish to buy Aghs before stuff like AC, but I've realized that just being able to attack and have Demolish on towers is good enough. I think Aghs is worth getting after Radiance, but I'm curious what Bulldog's input on it is.
