so im trying to branch out of dota 2 for a little while (AND NOT BUY THAT BLASTED COMPENDIUM UNLESS THEY SELL LOTS OF EMOTICONS). Can anyone help me decide on a game to buy with my next paycheck? I completely missed out on games this year because I had a crappy job till recently. Was thinking of either witcher 3, MGS5, bloodborne, or disgaea 5.

? Dota 2 is the pinnacle of video gaming. Please take your money and invest in compendium sets and infusers. No other game in existence bar goldeneye has near the replay value of Dota 2. Playing a new role in Dota is akin to playing an entirely different game!

didn't play disgaea 5

All of them are worth full price, just mgs5 will leave you bad taste in your mouth if you are a mgs fan

Remove the strength bonus for centaurs ult and give him a passive that increases the damage of all his spells depending on how much Strength he has, allows him to become a damaging threat late game instead of just Mister ult and stun.

Man, it's true.

It's a really great game in general and has some MGS moments, but it's so light on story, it's kinda sad. ): You can tell it's unfinished as fuck. (Speaking as someone who's only 22 missions in. Maybe it gets better.)

lmao smurfing is the single most irrelevant thing in Dota. Who even cares.

edit: My main Acc queues quite a bit lower than my smurf. Haven't played that one since early-mid 2014.

Yeah. I mean, it was more down to the fact that the MMR in our stack was all over the place. I just invited random people from my local chat and they ranged from 300 MMR (the Huskar in the Sniper game) to about 2.2k or something. Sometimes, I felt like the huge MMR spread (I literally have 4k MMR on that Husk) made for not entirely balanced games. I also threw some games so I can't really be that upset. Statistically, losing periods are to be expected so w/e.

Often, it felt like I could not commit any mistakes at all because everyone was so insanely reliant on me doing well. Obviously, I'll crack under the pressure once in a while. The enemy team often had a bigger margin of error they could afford.

This is my first character
Not sure what you mean at the beginning, I have missions for my level ;p

I have 2 strikes that I've yet to do, but they're for level 15-16, not sure if you can join or if it will scale if you're higher? It's the House of Wolves and The Nexus
I'll add you when I turn on the PS4

I like to have games I can play by myself so I'm not raging at the total idiots I've been paird with for an hour sometimes.

I was playing some skate on the 360 since THPS V came out and got me wanting to play skateboarding games again, so much smoother than the PS3 version (fuck all those online achievements tho)

return is already a poor man's dispersion, what does changing it to be more like a poor man's dispersion achieve
Click to expand...

I think people overlook the differences between Dispersion and Return. Dispersion doesn't cancel blinks, while Return only hits the attacker and does cancel blinks. On top of that, Centaur isn't going to be carrying through Return because it doesn't block any damage. Dispersion still gives Spectre that sustain with the damage blocking in addition to the Dispersion hitting everyone around her. If Dispersion cancelled blinks, it would be OP as all hell because one person hitting her would screw the entire team over. With Return, it only does this to the attacker. Plus there's the fact that Return only affects attacks and not spells.

Exactly, it's silly two spells that share one aspect in common yet do so much else different, such as Return and Dispersion.

In the Magic Missile vs Primal Roar thing:

Similar

They're both a stun

Different

Primal Roar has a much longer cooldown and duration

i mean if you want to do it like that

dispersion
+ aoe damage
+ lowers incoming damage
+ deals same damage type
+ scales with enemy farm not centaur's
+ works on all incoming damage

return
+ cancels blinks
