Doesn't make it any less dumb. It comes down to a matter of "Who lands just one nuke and presses the button the fastest"
I really don't get that change of making the abilities available while he is dead. At LEAST save them for after first YB spawn.
Have Disruptor Rage of the Three. Has 3 mount styles.
Would like the Magnus Engulfing Spike

I thought it was a cool feature tbh. If you often play Carry/Mid roles it gave you the chance to see your own courier which is neat, and if you were the Support and wanted to show off your own, you could lock it.
I don't get what the issue with it was.
Aui's stream right now is pretty awesome. It's ranked all pick: Aui Stack vs. Blitz stack. And my favorite non pro player Moo is on Aui's team. This dude Moo is 6.6k mmr and I am waiting for the day he either joins a pro team or brings up his own.

Valve must be stumped how to keep these sets to maintain their prices or maybe they stopped caring for old sets anyway.
Giving entire sets is very generous of them.
Giving entire sets is very generous of them.
You can't trade or market the sets you get from this event.
Edit: the affect this will have on the set prices will be quite minimal, because the ratio of people playing dota, to playing and winning the event is quite low - not to mention there are hundreds of sets.
You can't sell or trade them.
I feel like Valve has effectively admitted their earlier philosophy of "Make everything sellable" is a business failure.
I think the biggest failure of selling items is that no one seems to value their own things. It makes no sense to me that so many things are sold for less than 40 cents for no particular reasoning. A nice example is this brand new Jadehorn courier that requires 10 Year Beast wins to unlock. I have no desire to be playing that game mode, but the courier can ONLY be unlocked for having won 10 freaking matches. I can't imagine spending my time to unlock that so I would assume the courier to cost no less than $4 or something on the market. It's crazy to me that so many people will take the time to WIN 10 matches of the Year Beast Brawl only to sell their prize item for under 40 cents. I don't understand it.

Seems the log is not working in lobbies? wanted to test LS with diffusal SnY vs deso SnY :/ (and see which one would be better to get first)
There's 1k+ on the market, the market for them (people wanting to buy it) is quite small. Also - 10 games won isn't much tbh.

You are talking about the Redhorn which only takes 3 matches to unlock. Not that it changes your argument, but there are a bit less than 400 Jadehorn's available on the market right now.
Oh my bad, you're right. And tbh I didn't even notice I got that mount till it was mentioned that it's a reward for 10 wins.
In that case it kind of is weird it's so cheap, but that's sort of what happens with most items on the steam market - everyone tries to undercut each other if there are more than 50 of an item.

PL is never getting diffusal at this rate.
I just dont think it works in Dota unless its a very rare hard to get item. Too many heroes and sets and its hard to notice them. It works perfectly in CSGO because aks, m4s and awps are just naturally more desirable and by making them only available from chests and the market you make them worth a lot. The knives were a stroke of genius though
Who cares about an ugly courier? I just want more (ugly) sets.

The number of crits and DDs in that Secret match was ridiculous. It almost looked rigged.

I think it encourages people to play support. Which is only a good thing.
Wait, it was completely removed? I thought they just fixed a bug with it. Why did they do that?
REDDIT BALANCE POST said:
everything i fucking hate about reddit balance debates in one post:
1) Everything I think is UP needs a REWORK; I want the entire goddam hero remade.
2) The classic "EVERYTHING they do is done better by other heroes" -- literally every balance argument is better than this one.
3) Throw out the classic "no utility" because every hero needs major "utility," fuck what actually is "utility," fuck it's not like a big part of dota "utility" comes from items, fuck, "utility" is also relative from game to game and often based on hero lineups
4) Dota heroes can, in fact, be counterpicked.THIS IS A TRAVESTY!!!!
5) Hero is situational = not picked in every competitive game = needs major buffs (or REWORK). The goal of goddamn dota balance is that every hero is situational, a hero fitting into literally every single team regardless of ally or enemy comp. is the very definition of "OP" imo.
FUK REDDIT
/end rant
I'm fairly certain we kinda do the same thing. When asking why x hero is not in the meta its not uncommon to have essays written about why they aren't viable.

I've been saying this for years, dude (at least this line).
That's not what my post is directed at; I enjoy balance debates. There's nothing inherently wrong with wall of text balance essays or short bullet points (unless it's an entire essay that simply breaks down to 'no utlitiez complete rework situational hero OMG other heroes do it so much better'). I take issue with the particular line of thought in that particular reddit post that unfortunately represents what 90% of balance debates devolve into (this is what my post is addressing if it wasn't clear).
yeah I'm just gonna try not thinking about it too much
for example i thought sniper was a trashcan hero after the headshot change and would be until they brought the stun proc back
that was before the shrapnel rework to be fair, but here we are anyway
Yeah I see a fair bit of qop and heros not weak at all, rune change was pretty nice for her I think
Also, treant aghs http://www.twitch.tv/dotapit VPP/asusP v TT
Both QoP and windranger are picked a decent amount.

Who needs buffs (not a rework) urgently, anyway?
lol this treant aghs in vp asus vs water boys so good.
I see. Does it matter though since i dont think their opinion is taken into account?
