Na'Vi vs M5 worth watching for the lulz?

No. It was just awful to watch. Nothing about it was enjoyable.

 

[kvk1]

It was like playing with really stupid teammates.

A nice little change I appreciate in 6.82 is the removal of the unit target on Sonic Wave. I remember before this patch I would whiff that thing so many times because I ended up hero targeting it and they just got out of the way. Makes life as QoP much easier now.

Didn't they get rid of it for fissure as well? The amount of times the fissure animation stopped because I accidentally clicked on a hero who proceeded to walk into fog was ridiculously high.

Shoutout to Dreamleague admins letting Alliance reschedule after forbidding 4ASC from rescheduling and making them drop out of Synergy League

lol

lol

fucking dreamleague, man. I really hope the GD studio finds another big tournament to cast, since I enjoy their casts but really am getting fed up with dreamleague's bullshit.

Does anyone know when the next big lan is taking place?

 

[Acinixys]

Yesterday I played an ignored hero most of the time:

Shadow Demon

Holy shit why did I ignore this guy so much. He absolutely wrecks in lane as a support, and his ultimate destroys most big carries if they use buffs (Medusa/TA for example in my game, they lose their shield as soon I put my ult on them. Glorious)

SD is so fun to play with, especially if youre on TS/Mumble with them

People always say that SD + Mirana lane is cancer but I love to play Kunkka + SD offlane. The amount of harass you can throw out if crazy

Its such a good quality of life change. Sonic Wave/Fissure etc not procing linkins is amazing

Dota 2 Update - October 27th, 2014

* Fixed various bugs related to Path Finding
* Captain's Draft no longer has any restricted heroes
* Fixed a bug with how the waves in Requiem of Souls calculate the area near the center

 

[Prophet Steve]

Those were unexpected fixes.

 

[Anbokr]

Some nice fixes there. Now I'm just waiting for: *RD is now enabled in ranked matchmaking.

 

[inkls]

So wait. Does that mean you can pick earth spirit in cd? If so, all those extra heroes in cd is gonna be interesting.

 

[shira]

* Captain's Draft no longer has any restricted heroes

DotaCinema CD 2.0 looking mighty interesting now.
- Phoenix, Brood, Earth Spirit, PL, Blyatsuka

 

[Holden]

Some nice fixes there. Now I'm just waiting for: *RD is now enabled in ranked matchmaking.

seriously, ranked so goddamn boring now

 

[Demoli]

I have a feeling this RD tournemnt will be a test run of some heroes into competetive meta. Phoenix will probably be out of CM if it dominates. Brood is gonna be prevalant aswel i think.

But man, ES is gonna be completely ignored, hero has Omni syndrome

 

[FACE]

I think that Requiem bug has been in the game for years, never thought I'd see it getting fixed.

 

[Zoon]

Was requiem doing less damage than it was supposed to?

 

[Monochromaticx]

Guys..I need your help with KOTL.
He is my worst hero and now its his turn in the hero challenge
What do I build on this creepy old man and how do I skill him??


Also, The DC CD tourny is going to be amazing!

 

[Anbokr]

Was requiem doing less damage than it was supposed to?

If you were right on top of someone (or right next to them) with Shadowblade, only 50% of the souls would ever hit, whereas in dota1, you'd hit them with 100%. My favorite thing to do in dota1 and HoN; it's going to be amazing one-shotting people again >:].

 

[Sanjay]

yea okay

but what if he was a turtle with a shield

 

[Archaix]

Void model is really fucking good as it is. No idea why it won.

Void is pretty much the worst looking hero in the game. That's a problem with concept, though. The model is fine; unless they start over from the ground up a new model won't help with how terrible the hero is visually.

...Which will probably make all of the people who voted for him angry, and delight everybody who knew there were characters better served by a new model once they see the disappointment. In other words the perfect hero won the vote as long as it's still Dota we're talking about.

i forgot about the female one and the soccer one too what are they doing

Void won because he was insanely popular at the time (still is), and the majority of dumbasses just went herp derp click void for vote i like dat hero.

Seriously? Void looks worse than Viper? Viper needed that remodel more than anyone, save old SF.

 

[Manus]

I want a redone Jakiro. One of my favorite supports and his textures look like poop.

 

[bbd23]

Team Stinker giving me easy items

thank you again KPG

 

[Hylian7]

Agreed, I'm still amazed he doesn't have any cosmetics.

Bane doesn't need a remodel, but demands some cosmetics as the workshop could do crazy shit with him.

 

[NormalFish]

I think Viper, Slardar, Zeus, and Jakiro are the least attractive heroes. All of them could do with atleast a retexture/remodel, preferably a total redesign in the case of zeus and viper, though.

Void easily looks worse than either. Both of those could make better use out of a new model with the same concept though, they are low quality versions of a solid concept. Void is an adequate rendition of a boring concept. Based on all of the other remodels they've done, the basic character will stay the same so I agree Void shouldn't have been chosen. I think everything about the way Faceless Void looks should be thrown out the window and just start from nothing except the character name again.

On the other hand, if the remodel consists of nothing other than getting rid of his hammerhead, or making it so that his attack is bashing his stupid lipless hammerhead face off of enemies, I'll be retroactively in support of the community vote.

Because Twitch has said guys cant stream stream shirtless and girls cant slut it up with 90% boob cams?

I say great

Twitch is a video game streaming platform, not a pay per view porn site

Is that really going to stop a lot of female streamers, I don't really watch streamers on twitch but they hardly stream in Lingerie or swimsuits normally

10% cams of woman streaming that have boobs showing cleavage is still enough.

This is a typical "girl" stream who wants to make money.
- low cut shirt
- excess makeup
- kawaii outfit

There is a formula.

 

[Satch]

not yall fuming over streams yall dont even have to watch

Yeah seems like a formula but I'm pretty sure they could easily say they're not being sexually suggestive and just wearing normal clothes and probably get away with it

 

[Razzer]

Why would anyone watch those streams anyway when SingSing is a thing. All the cute girl strimming you need right there.

There are degrees though

Asia and Kaylovepie teeter on the edge sometimes but their streams are still mostly about the games

Ive seen many streams where its just a girl in the smallest, tightest clothing she owns basically cam whoring for donations. This is what Twitch wants to clamp down on im sure

 

[shira]

It's possible but you would have to work about 20x as hard. Sheever works her ass off to create her own stream community.
