VALVE PLZ GIFF PATCH, PPL GETTING VIOLENT

You have a funny definition of violence. He is just putting forward his point about the subject.

I think the patch isn't hitting till Wednesday or Thursday. Remember when they used to always patch on those days?

 

[Kade]

You guys don't even deserve the patch.

 

[SteveWinwood]

I wonder what percentage of the player base is completely disconnected from the online communities and unaware that patches are even coming until it starts downloading on their main client.

I always wonder that about a lot of games.

I wish there was an easy to way to measure this, I think it would be really interesting and I'd wager that while maybe Dota 2's is rather involved relative to most other video games, it'd still be smaller than most people think.

There's also the front page of the blog in the biggest frame of the client so everyone's greeted to the big SPRING CLEANING UPDATE banner. There's probably a sizeable group of people who launch the game and their eyes and cursor go straight to the Play tab though.

Hylian your inability to recognize sarcasm is adorable and one of the reasons you are one of my fave posters. He's saying it cus I'm so mellow (almost) all the time.

Spoiler

G.ZZZ Huskar really is awful stop picking him pls.

I think so as well.

Even with all the forums, subreddits, etc. the most prevalent communities still represent the "vocal minority."

Must be nice to just play this game and not bitch about it on the internet.

I saw someone yesterday complaining on the dev forums that Helm of the Dominator wasn't working with Fury Swipes and was frustrated the notes on the site were not active.

Valve should maybe be more careful about that.

Yes and instead bitch at your teammates. I don't think it's possible to play this game and never get angry, but I think that about every multiplayer game. Maybe I just have anger issues.

 

[Acinixys]

Axe announcer/mega kills is also the best, followed by GlaDoS. The rest are average and the recent clockwerk being esp. Weak.

Timbersaw and ogre magi would make amazing announcers.

Wut

Pflax announcer + NBA Jam mega kills is clearly best combo

 

[balladofwindfishes]

Someone goofed

I'm surprised it took this long to notice, but that item doesn't exist and the ticket does not grant the item despite the ticket saying so

Valve needs to be more careful with accepting ticket imagery.

People noticed that a while ago ago, I'm surprised valve haven't fixed the image yet though.

I didn't see that, I would have bought a lion dagon for 99 cents... if such a thing existed.

Also can they legally use the phrase Live Strong?

 

[Chris R]

Prize pool of $75?

When are we making a GAF league with a ticket so I can farm some SWEET SWEET ticket drops?

 

[Drkirby]

Actually, want to hear something funny? That tournament is sponsored by e-club Malaysia
http://e-clubmalaysia.com/dota2/?p=9750

From the looks of it, e-Club actually seem somewhat proactive in their local tournament scene, there is links to all the local competitions, tournament information, and sign ups information. They even set up a small 'Pubstomp' for the Star Ladder finals.

It's a known issue, the next patch will be replacing that ticket's imagery.

immortal lion dagon timebreaker imminent

Axe again?

Heroic item drops. . . woooooo

 

[Dreams-Visions]

Axe announcer/mega kills is also the best

finally, someone understands.

 

[Procarbine]

...I just now understood your tag. Who said that was what your avatar looked like?

You don't understand his tag

 

[Karakand]

But consider the fact that that one Tango could be the difference between a support walking back to base and not walking back to base, missing out on kills, possible farm, and helping the carry or the rest of the team.

At pub level people aren't maximizing efficiency and this isn't a huge sacrifice. A lot of the trendy supports can passably jungle now to catch up anyway.

It's a small (and easy) contribution to make to your mid. I wish I was confident enough in my own mid abilities to ask my teammates for pooled tangoes, tbh.

 

[Chris R]

So when does Liquid disband?

 

[SteveWinwood]

Axe again?

axe is a good hero

 

[Hylian7]

You don't understand his tag

Pls explain.

I could see how someone would think his avatar is bull on a donut so that was my best guess.

 

[Satch]

ok so i did iceborg fratts source film maker tutorial ty ty but i cant load the dota map

????

 

[bsdf]

So when does Liquid disband?

):

 

[Dreams-Visions]

MOTHAFUCKIN AXE.

[M.D]

[Divvy]

Dat Axe

 

[KingKong]

new Dog is legit

 

[G.ZZZ]

UR HUSKAR IS AWFUL GET OFF MY BACK.

I'm 13-6 on him last week, no wonder ur Bounty too heavy to carry

But seriousy, i usually lose with him only when people don't get a second carry for the safelane or leave me solo offlane vs trilanes. Gimme a lane partner and you win every aggro laen evah.

Yo

EDIT: i put on the dog stream and the first thing i hear is mejolnah. Tobi plz.

 

[Drkirby]

Likely Next month, they still have to compete in the TI4 Qualifiers.

Wow, Empire may actually lose, good job dog.

[Dreams-Visions]

[Lotto]

3 wins in a row, woof woof. Grats to Team Dog! Those Axe picks worked beautifully.

 

[Divvy]

YOLO Wraith King and two Axe games. Clearly Dog will keep on rekking if they keep on playing manly.

 

[ubercheez]

Too much manly bosom for Empire.

 

[Chris R]

Heroic item drops. . . woooooo

Any item drops would be nice I'm tired of playing game after game and getting stupid scrolls and chests.

[Green Biker Dude]

[Zeth]

yeah , he had 72 for a while earlier - hah.

 

[Arkanius]

I quit trying to play Necrophos until 6.81 hits.
I keep calling my lanes, and being the first pick, and everyone picks a carry (Ember Spirit or whatever flavour of the month is) and asks me to support.

The flying fuck.

Edit: NVM. I'm a dirty hyping scum.

With 1200 range Heartstopper, I kinda want to try some silly early game idle jungling.

Spoiler

In a bot game.

[Razzer]

So because some guy on Reddit was talking about it I tried jungle tide in the test client with the new patch. I was low and a single support rotating would have butchered me, but I got 14 mins basi arcane blink. Not bad, went better than I expected.
