those are fucking awful
i'll start by saying i only quoted that specific post of yours because 1) it happened recently 2) it was concise and 3) i just happened to remember it. but i'm not singling you out, nor do i hold any grudges -- against you or anyone here
but, my opinion on this matter wasn't formed overnight, and i've been here seeing the same thing happen so many times i've lost count by now. last time i complained about, say, mirana, i didn't even go into detail, yet i had at least a few people going on about how it only works in the trench where people don't buy detection and can't control their camera to dodge the arrows. nevermind that her winrate is the same across all brackets, that she dominated the na qualifiers and rtz, when asked the other day, which heroes he'd remove from the game, picked mirana and doom. so, i'm not buying that. it happens because of a number of reasons -- they way it's said matters, but it's not really all there is to it
i don't call people names in my posts either -- well, most of the time -- yet people always start throwing shit in the discussions. again, it's the internet and idgaf, but you're implying i start these things, when i don't. nor do i address specific posters before they address me -- except this time
either way i've written too much about this, so i'm probably not replying about it again
tl;dr i'm talking about the game without talking shit about people. not everyone is doing that, however
is this the new cty or what
bloodstone is definitely the best item on tinker in an official game which ******* has never fucking played in
et me explicate my past claim about bloodstone being the best item; i think unless you have a certainly crafted lineup intended to burst a hero and not slow siege i.e bloodseeker furion tinker visage +1 lineup id say dagon is better but in the most common cases bloodstone allows you to slow siege and ensure safety in team fights. its really impossible to deal with unless you jump the tinker who should have a BKB in the first place if being jumped out of position
regardless of the game and composition you have or are against, you definitely need to get a hex <23 minutes for bloodstone to be effective. farming patterns are the most important aspect of tinker, not the overrated perfect positioning. using marches uselessly in the first couple of minutes after BoTs is actually detrimental to tinkers development in the midgame cause getting to the areas to march is time consuming
hylian i think you're losing because the enemy team has a slardar, not the muted player. pick slardar if you want easy wins
gotta go fast, aoe stun, +100 dmg bash, most -armor in game, truesight. best support/carry/initiator/jungler/tanker 2014
slardar is just imbalanced as shit. his ult giving -10/15/20 armor for basically no mana and him having a free abyssal is just dumb. i remember playing a game the other day where i was doom with ac/mek and he'd still kill me with a handful of slaps. just looking at the patch notes you could see how stupid that thing was. he already dealt a ton of damage before this patch. now it's basically ssj spirit breaker
blink and sprint both not costing mana just adds insult to injury
slardar shouldn't have been buffed, for one. he already deals a ton of damage with all the buffs to his ult. that thing is going to be op as shit
REMINDER THAT EHUG PICKED SLARDAR
huskar no longer has an uam, gonna rape again fml
tree and lich dual armor towers while void freefarms all game
tree blinks into the enemy team, ults, void q's and ults, lich ults. people die
suddenly huskar and a bear jump in, rape all 5 heroes
icefrog smiles in the distance, pretending he actually balances the game and doesn't just have a bunch of monkeys throwing poop at a wall until one of them hits a square with a random balance idea
dumb brood buffs
huskar no longer has an uam, gonna rape again fml
qw invoker gets away with basically no nerfs. what a great game
kotl gonna be the next shitter support
lich isn't even funny. screw kotl. this is gonna be first picked every fucking game
lycan got away with almost no nerfs as well
no mirana nerfs, great
ogre magi gets +1 armor? really? is this a fucking joke? lich gets free armor on buildings and limitless ultimates and you give ogre magi +1 armor? i'm done reading this changelog
yeah no. you can't stop me from posting here. take it to the mods or add me to your ignore list. i don't care
only betas blame themselves instead of blaming the team
be the alpha male
oh wow qas wex invoker is so hard to play. what a fucking balanced game
i hope the next patch brings back the imbalanced tree. if you're gonna have fucking imbalanced heroes every patch, at least make it the ones i can play
10k ping and no patch. guess they're finally bringing the servers down for this pos. well deserved
this thread's gotten pretty circlejerky. oh no some guy who isn't a professional player was raging. like you people haven't done that before. hurr let me join in on the bashing so i can get some e-cred. durr i'm so good at dota and never get mad at my teammates. look at me
i sure hope that internet person gives me the fucking satisfaction i deserve. herp derp i'm so good at this forum posting thing
gib upboat and commend
edit: i had a bug the other day where i couldn't type "i" but it was on the console. i didn't try uppercase i though. after restarting dota it was fine
i like how every time there is an update, there isn't a single update. it always gets followed up by 2 or 3 shitty small updates to fix something. fucking quality control, what is it
bububu it's a beta
OMG time to speculate what each one of them ARE!!!
Daily hero challenge: Like a daily quest in Heroes of the Storm (lol Volvo) each player get a hero per day. If you play this hero and win you get extra xp!!!
Alternate Voice: Someone to replace the default announcer? funfact: its the same person that voices Luna.
Favorite Hero challenge: You select your favorite hero and get extra xp when playing it!
Model Update Vote: People can finally try to modify Mirana's face (ps: shes not ugly)
Multi-kill banner: Idk what this is...
Afterparty Broadcast: Something they plan to do after the broadcasts, using twitch? More Mario Party?
New Upgraded Creeps: Choose between Dota, LoL or HotS creeps.
A-Z challenge support: Volvo trying to make people play support role more awarding bonus xp.
Victory Taunt: You automatically spam "jajaja" and "huehuehue brbr" when you get a kill or win a game. Just what the community needs!
I like this thread way better when it's being real than when it's suffering from patch deprivation and stretch goalitus
If we do the model vote and pick shadow fiend who is being remade anyway I'll be annoyed
Pick Jakiro or Slardar, those two aren't guaranteed a remake like Shadow Fiend is
if u hover over the stuff it explains what each are lol
My friends (as well as myself sometimes, lol) are already fucking up games by picking some of our 10 hero challenge picks instead of an actual solid comp.
Like 75% of these seem like planned features for the game anyway! I imagine even if we don't hit them we'll get a few of them like mega creep models and a-z challengesOh boy, only need 4 million more and valve will give us the 'it's in the bag' taunt.

Who's darude?
Wtf are you talking about that after party with Darude is amazingthose are fucking awful
P A T C H B O Y S
inb4 its fukn nothing
i mean the model vote has to be slardar or zeus
holy shit these stretch goals are so bad
but I guess valve can't make new content now since they converted all their devs to business retards
1) the afterparty is limited to VIP's so it sux right off the bat
2) legit it's guna be like 15 pro's sittin in the corner with like 3 asian girls, then a bunch of other dudes grinding each other to darude in the other corner
Or Viper and his backwards wings. Why do you hate biology, Valve?!
I can also get behind a Jakiro vote since, as ballad mentioned, he's unlikely to get one any time soon.
Honestly, I think these lame goals are intentional. They've realized the power of lucrative stretch goals and they chose to step away from the abyss. They have already received a shitload of money, more than they know what to do with. They don't want to compromise their office culture for the sake of meeting bigger and grander stretch goals, which is what they'd have to do if they kept up the escalation. They don't want the community to feel stiffed, either, if it reaches 10 million, 20 million, and Valve can't deliver on loftier promises.
This is basically damage control. They're saying "Okay guys, okay. Stop giving us money, seriously."
Not sure what you were all expecting the goals to be.
I dont see the problem here.
Not sure what you were all expecting the goals to be.
that's a funny way to spell philosophical experimenter of economics and psychology
I was kind of expecting them to not suck donkey balls.
Yea, I remember before this compendium every game was perfect compositions and now it's just a mess.
legit like vr mode and a datacenter in every city for low pings
