Pretty sure I couldn't end a game this early if we actually drafted a pushing lineup, was such a stomp

Come on, it is Vlads or nothing. Satanic is useless here.
I went from 4k to 3.6kDid they rebalance the brackets recently? In the span of a couple of weeks i went from 3500 to 2950. I guess its my fault for not aying as much? Just felt bad when i lost my 1000th game

Give me some good aggro trilanes GAF. Been running undying cm + 1. Need some other hood ones.

I think It would be cool to have a skill that counters the chain frost, like rage.
jugg/veno/cm
That's half the point of astral. But maybe astral/ice path/cold feat would be to much lock down.
Disruption may be fun if you can change the illusion count.

I totally missed that, my bad.

GAF, serious question time. What do you do when you're in a slump and just sliding backwards in MMR? Dropped from 4.2-->3.8 in just a few days and its been hell trying to climb back up lol(and also I fucking hate it, makes me feel like I'm shit at dota). Obviously going to probably take a break for a few days if I can, but IDK. I feel like maybe I hit my MOBA plateau and my frustration with it is making me play worse. I need to try and progress, tips?

How about decrepify, frost nova, spike carpace (perhaps on a longer cooldown like 30 or even 60seconds) and chain frost (on a short , maybe 30second, cooldown) that gets faster as you level it up (150ms at lvl 1, 250 at lvl 2, 400 at lvl 3)
It'd be like rock paper scissors with the decrep and spike carpace combos
You would have the spike carpace change the 'allegiance' of the chain frost if it hits an enemy with spike carpace active (the ball could be colored red or green to show whose side it is on)
If my explenation is too confusing, an example:
you and friend run into group of 5 lichs, decrep one throw chainfrost at him, but since he saved his spike carpace he stuns you and you eat the full decrep chainfrost hit dmg to the face, the chainfrost changes from green (your team color) to red as it bounces back at your friend or you because the spike carpace changed its allegiance (acts like it was used by the guy who used carpace)
Your friend also uses his carpace to return it to your side
It would be chaos
added mutators could be the chain frost hits acting like a force staff/earth spirit kick and knocking you back
You could play it on an ice themed map with crash bandicoot/diretide style slippery floors and bouncy walls for full pinballmachine hilarity

That feeling of being a support for a team that actually knows what to do with a support!
So nice.

Speaking of Lone Druid, I noticed something weird about him. On the dota wiki, it states that Lone Druid's true form base attack time is 1.5. However, liquipedia says it's 1.6. I googled it, and the other sources I can find seem to have a 50-50 split on wether it's 1.5 or 1.6. I couldn't find anyone else bringing this discrepancy up either.
Does someone know the attack time system well enough to figure this out through testing? Or maybe inform reddit and let them figure it out? I need to know damnit!

the library on dota 2 says its 1.5

Edit: Anybody up for a GB tournment team? I'd rather not captain but I will if i have to.
Don't play ranked, play stuff that you can't play in ranked and try new heroes. Generally you want to get into a mindset where you don't give a shit, pop some music, and try not to think about your losses outside of analyzing them for improvements.

Is the custom tools in the beta dota 2 channel yet or it's still in private?

But what if that's what Valve wants us to think?!
But yeah, good catch, didn't think of that. Still, why would some sites state the wrong BAT then? The patch notes don't show it was recently changed or anything.

Just stop playing ranked for a while. Do some fun stuff, play your favourite heroes, try something fun or interesting that you always wanted to but thought wouldn't be viable in "serious" play.
People play for different reasons, but if you're getting frustrated and it makes you unhappy, seriously step back and evaluate why you play the game in the first place.
Yeah. I'm still quite below your skill level but I'm always up for playing, dates allowing.

I'm up for it, so long as signing up isn't too annoying.
It's pretty much painless. One person needs a giantbomb account. This person posts in the tourney thread. That's it.

Running the second "annual" MaddenGAF Grudge Series tonight. It's a BO5 (not running the full thing tonight) set between Madden guys, cast by myself and Trasher.

thats because this place is mostly no fun allowed and only a certain group of individuals that play together
luckily it's sort of the same people. It's almost no fun that way.

I took a look at that thread and they had this GIF going
so I thought it could be useful for basically anything in this thread.
