I struggle with winning against dragon knight but sven seemed much easier after watching some pro players play him. Using his stun for many things instead of a few.

Literally all my teammates are Russians every single game, EU West my fucking ass. They either don't talk at all or are complete assholes. I've become completely immune to their bullshit, but it's affecting my sanity.
My last game a Viper runs into a deathball by himself, I leave when it's obvious we'll die, he pings me like a madman to then swear at me in Russian. What it makes you feel better if I die with you? So glad our LC abandoned so I could leave that horrible game.
Edit: I've come to the conclusion that SD is not much better than AP, people just always pick the most farm dependant hero out of the bunch and you end up with a 4-5 carry lineup every game. Time to only play AR, I can semi-handle supports rushing Aghs over getting wards.
I'm coming very close to trying ranked CD but I fear it's going to be the worst experience out of all of them.

As I've said before, I think Spring Cleaning was pushed forward from part of a bigger update in order to get 6.81 out earlier. I think we'll see a hero patch sooner rather than later...
Since the Patch I'm really a bit annoyed with it so few english speakers in my games at the moment....
Oh and I don't know people don't want to communicate on their picks...... Then they hover over the support the whole time so I pick something else and then they last pick a carry while we have no support.
I hope so, I have to imagine if they're going to add any heroes before TI4 it's gotta be ASAP.

I just assume nobody wants to play support, I don't know why people would rather play a shit game than play support and maybe win. Probably the assumption that someone else will probably do it for them while they yell at everyone because they died.
I love Dota but the Dota I play only slightly resembles it.

Just spent a match with a raging Invoker, was kind of funny towards the end when he just kept calling for us all to be reported. I'd love to see one game where calling someone a retard made them play better

Fuels my fire. I Ctrl+C that shit, put it in a txt file.
Load up Atlus Plug - Truth Be Known and own
Is there a page I could look up that lists every time sensitive events during a match ? Something like this :
0:00 Day time - Start of creep wave + Rune spawn
0:30 Jungle spawn camp
0:45 Safe lane pull
0:53 Stack jungle camp
...
2:00 Rune spawn
3:00 Siege unit added to creep line
4:00 Night time / Roshan level up
etc
I can't find anything that centralize everything so I started building a list manually but I'm sure something like this already exists.

Not really, they added abaddon like 25 days~ before the international 3, we were supposed to get Legion along with abba before the international as well but she came real late. Heroes like troll, centaur, abba, and ET weren't in captains mode at the time either. We still have 5 heroes not in captains mode as well(Phoenix, Terrorblade, Broodmother, Earth Spirit, Legion Commander) so them adding more heroes to the game isn't going to effect the tournament at all since they won't be in CM either till after.
I never got why people play the other modes at all, just because you place restrictions on the heros available, isn't going to stop kids from picking whatever they want.

It's not about what others pick for me, it's about forcing myself to learn new heroes. SD and AR force me to diversify, and I just freeze up whenever I play AP, I can never choose what hero I want to play.

There is some speculation that Union Gaming may also get kicked from the American qualifier, since one of their players left for Revenge. Also, one of the reddit admins is saying that behind the scenes the NA Qualifier really is a mess, so prepare for some comedy.
Bit of a shame Revenge isn't going to be playing, I still feel they are one of the stronger teams in the Americas, but that play by their stand in yesterday, so so bad.
ur so disgusting

I was rooting for Smash too. What a disaster.
Also Bearzky got shitcanned. Only Premier tournaments can have courier bundles from now on. Stamped it. Valve.
Every "i" in this sentence should be dotted with a heart.

What about item bundles? And what does Premier tournament actually mean?
called it.
saw it couple of days ago, thought it was a one off thing, guess not. PERU=SHIT
its not even funny, cause i asked one of them i somebody wanted to go to TI in the case they didnt qualify, they told me no they would prefer watching it at home. guess what you suck you didnt play and you still gonna watch it at home. stupid idiots.

What the FUCK
From what I've seen ixmike and fluffnstuff's new team (sneaky nyx assassins) looks stronger than liquid. Just embarrassing.
Granted SNA has played no real competition aside from EG (who crushed them every time) yet, but...

This is bullshit. That courier is amazing and deserves to be in the game. How exactly is a tournament supposed to become a premiere tournament if they cannot build revenue by offering items?
If they are going to change the rules it should be from like 2 months on or something. You cannot pull the rug out from people who have been operating on your old rules.

Maybe Valve will let the Canada Cup Organization sell Bearzky on its own, as a Canada cup Branded courier, rather then just for a tournament bundle. Doing that kind of thing in the future may be fine.
I still think the biggest issue is that Valve takes a 75% cut of all item sales.

WOW thats a lot source? seems very excessive.
I don't know, it seems like a pretty fair deal, considering they setup the systems, the marketing, the base models, and the consumer base for you. They built the game after all.
Hadn't played undying in so long, forgot how fun he was:

Due to our picks we went duo lanes and I was with gyro top against a ck, bane, rubick trilane.
We got 2 kills 2 minutes in as they tried diving me. so good.
