the arm or the sword - I think the sword looks ok to come off.

Its not supposed to come off. The only detachable Demihero part is OD's staff.

I looked at what videos I could find and this guy shows that you can pull it off.
So I guess it is detachable.

Is the network down atm?

Yeah, I think it is. I'm getting "Connected to the Dota 2 Game Coordinator, Logging in..."

Hopefully gets resolved momentarily, it usually does.

Oh ok, phew, good thing I didn't decide to uninstall and reinstall as per some redditors instructions...lol

So I've been traveling for like 5 months and haven't played any Dota in that time or even watched any since TI5. Downloading Reborn now...what have I missed? should I even bother trying to catch up on 6.85 when it seems like 6.86 is right around the corner?

I wouldn't wish for 6.86, we're due for another Lycan meta.

I feel like it's going to be mid ES

And a comeback for

And a rapier buff so

 

[twobear]

can we not have a comeback for storm spirit, i think we've all seen enough of that trash for one lifetime

buff puck, repugna, and od please

 

[Mordeccai]

Random draft, I first pick enchantress and try out this offlane build

Enemy team picks SF, Gyro, Bane, Pudge, Lich.

I should a just quit the game right there. Five heros with nukes/disables for days.

Won lane no problem but once the SF had max raze and everyone else had their nukes maxed out I was 100% useless.

They sure had a rage boner over the prospect of untouchable.

but lycan metas are the best

 

[call_kotaku]

lycan meta is pretty good, actually

I don't have to care what my team picked or how awful they are, I just go into the jungle and come out when I want to win the game

 

[Chris R]

Just Cause 3 is out yes yes yes yes!!!

Oh fuck, I cant get it to run for more than 10 minutes without crashing to desktop

At least tomorrow I can play dota again when my internet is back.

 

[Deleted member 77995]

chris r is in and I'm out. moving and life stuff is gonna keep me out of the dota scene for a while. next year is year of the 4k, maybe then I won't be constantly running for the maelk award everytime I stack with gaf.

cyall around feb/march.

 

[NormalFish]

Got a rank in CSGO. Gold Nova III. Not as high as I'd've liked, but I had some really awful matches in the span of my placement games, so fair enough. Still at the top of my scoreboard near every game so I'll climb without a huge amount of issue at least for a little while.

I'd rather have the lycan, but towers are worth less than before

 

[NormalFish]

fast pushing should be more viable tbh

[Imp the Dimp]

Got queued into a 5k game on a new smurf I created for a buddy. Enemy 5.2k Ember went 25-1 with 900 GPM and 1k XPM feeding off of my friend rofl.

 

[Heavy's Sandvich]

6.86 won't be this year.

I hope you guys are ok with that.

 

[Shuggananas]

I have a friend who knows about all that's going on behind le scenes and he tells me pitlord will be in 2018

 

[neurosisxeno]

Ho Ho Ha Ha!

I beg to differ. This meta was good, the issue is now it has played out and we've seen it through a big tournament so we want something new.

6.85 has only been out for 63 days. Compare that to other patches and it's been pretty quick; 6.84 was 5 months, 6.83 was 5 months and 2 weeks, 6.82 was 2 months and 2 weeks, 6.81 was 5 months, and 6.80 was 3 months. The other issue is we haven't had a new hero in 9 months and 2 weeks. That's a pretty long time in the world of DotA.

The issue is 6.85 is too close to 6.84

 

[Kard8p3]

im not gonna lie


i miss the days of picking jugg or troll and just winning at the pick screen.

6.85 got rid of Storm Spirit, and for that reason alone it is one of my favorite balance patches. I fucking HATEEEEEEE that hero.

rip storm

Please don't kill ember.

 

[Shuggananas]

Ember seems fine, he may get some minor tweaking like cast point on remnant or some shit I think

 

[G.ZZZ]

Ember ulti will probably be a bit rescaled like, 80/140/200, so that people have a bit more incentive to level it up, or 45/40/35 remnants timer.

[TUSR]

reminder: axe immortal blows

 

[Sigismundo]

I sold my Axe immortal to pay for the upcoming Rocket League DLC. I'm OK with it.

 

[kionedrik]

Unless 6.86 is a massive patch and introduces some massive changes, and perhaps even a new hero, I don't see myself coming back to the game till 6.87...
