Fun to play as.

Then with Kotl being my most played hero I can only disagree ! ( that mana leak nerf thought..... )

Put him on the hardlane with Bristleback
???
profit!

I kind of ended up liking Dazzle. But there is far too many people who will immediately jump on the axe pick, so I quickly had to forget about him.

I played Weaver support ( miss click, wanted warlock ) a few weeks ago, it's bad, but once you get aghs... well it's still bad but really funny.

What is fun in Dota? For me:
  • pushing the hero to the limit by going ham on opponents, and then escaping with 1 hp by juking in the trees,
  • predicting the opponents's moves and ganks, and outplaying them at their own games.
Any hero that can do that is fun for me: Slark, Fortress Centaur, Support Riki, etc.

Wait, Return wasnt supposed to work on centaur illusions? It was so fun though....

I think it was supposed to, but sending Manta illusions to melt T4 is a bit too cheesy for Icefrog.

Moreover, illusions take additional damage, so I think the return damage is even stronger than with the main hero.

Return isn't based on damage taken, but on the hero strenght.

Anyone have any experience with computers?

My computer has recently started crashing and then failing to boot up afterwards until I wait some time and then it just kinda works again until like two days later where it starts crashing again. I'm not really sure what's causing it. Some days my pc works fine and other it doesn't.

my pc is like 5-6-7 years old I think if that matters

Any (and I mean any, no matter how farfetched it might be) suggestions to what the problem would be greatly appreciated.

the way it was worded makes it seem it wasn't supposed to, "Fixed Return working on Centaur Illusions" instead of say "Return no longer work on Centaur illusions."

I can totally understand why Icefrog changed it though, when the illusions had like 5k hp and even with the increased damage against illusions that is still a lot of eHP you have to chug through

makes manta style a lot more situational (the only scenario I can see someone purchasing it would be to increase stampede damage since the illusions deal as much damage as you would do). Fortress Centaur is still a lot of fun though!

Icefrog caved to the #RefusalToBuyDiffusal and nerfed Omni. Now people can stop complaining and just buy Diffusal.

Also RIP Fortress Centaur
Not really, just can't cheese towers with illusions.

How much time has to pass before you can start it up again?

Sounds like it's possibly be a heat issue. Get a core temp monitor and find out what your temps are when idling and when your CPU and GPU are being taxed. Do you clean the internals of your PC ever in 5-7 years? Your thermal seal on your motherboard could be wearing out if you've never replaced it, or you could have dust build up in your fans or heatsink.

If it's not a heat issue the easiest thing to check that can cause frequent crashing is your ram. Take out all but 1 stick and try and boot it up, try each stick until you find a bad one.

Last but not least: jump your CMOS.

If none of that works you're going to have to ask someone who actually knows what they're talking about, good luck.

Last time I had this issue it was an heat problem like Liquid suggested, even cleaning everything up again didn't help, so I bought another fan and I haven't had an issue since.

It usually takes 30m to an hour before it just works again. It also usually tells me (when it starts working again) that it has reset clock values or something along those lines and then gives me the option to run bios or load factory values and then run bios(this is usually the option I choose)

Considering my PC just crashed in BIOS right now and then failing to boot up the bios again I don't think it is a heat issue since my BIOS showed that the temp was 30 celsius so that shouldn't be too much right?

I also cleaned my pc last week when it crashed and even then it wasn't that dusty.

My motherboard does not have that jumper thing, but it has a reset(I assume this does the same thing) button which I pressed and now things seem to working again?

I have a theory which is probably wrong, but it is that my motherboard likes to automatically overclock my computer link and then fails to do so which messes it up.

I'm definitely bookmarking your post incase this crashing thing happens once again, after which I'll check out the memory sticks.

also some info I forgot to mention first time around; If I don't crash after 30 minutes of my pc running, it doesn't crash at all. It usually crashes within the first 30 mins and then is stuck in that loop until the pc decides it's not going to stay in that loop anymore.

OG today reminds me of the OG pre Frankfurt Major - great individual skill and some great games but still haven't meshed 100% and the drafts are experimental because they still haven't found their style yet. They placed third at their first LAN as a team just like the original OG at MLG.

Liquid are playing like fucking shit 95% of their games.

Wtfffffff is that liquid draft rofl

First pick slardar into a team with literally zero right click? What?? Arguebly the only one on that team who does right click is naga but that's after getting radiance and even late game a huge portion of his damage will come from diffusal, and even then most naga players perfer avoiding fights

It's not even a rosh line up.. like what

Edit: Actually, looking at that line up again... Bat, Undying and Skywarth? They might have 3 of the worst right clickers in the game, not just bad ones

TIL. That is a clever exploit.

Manta is great to dispel silence too. But maybe BKB is better now.

Liquid are bad but VP are worse

e: nope, Liquid are worse. Kuro is playing like he doesn't give a crap, its going to be tough for them to even make it to the major

I'm really looking forward to the Boston major and the quals.
Could be anyone's tournament really.

Lots of teams are kind of a mess at the moment, trying to figure out where they belong I guess.

Not that exciting sadly. I'm going to guess since they have nothing really special like the other ancients.

If they roamed the jungle, just imagine how many moments like the Satyr Hadouken or Centaur stomp fails we would see.
Click to expand...

Not that exciting since they aren't in use. If they were I bet they'd see something whenever the rest of the creeps got their loving touch from mr icy frog.

Roaming creep in the jungle could be cool, have it level up like a mini rosh or something

Secrets owner is basically a spoiled rich kid so it's actually surprising that he or Puppey tried to scam the players instead of giving them a ton of money to hang out with them. I guess that's what the Secret female CSGO team is for

I know I'm gonna get a lot of shit for this, but League has something like that. Turtle like creep in the river that roams around a bit.

I'm going to worlds grand finals next Saturday in LA. A girl I have a crush on talked me into it. So there.

If I had a ton of money, I'd sponsor players that I liked too. But I'd try not to scam them or seem too thirsty.

I'm not getting into a war of words. Those that know me well know that I'm not that person described and that's good enough for me. What I do want you to know is that I love Dota and I won’t stop trying to become the best Dota player out there. I cherish my teammates who stayed with me. Despite the drama, we still played great scrims, talking about the game and having a lot of fun. It made me feel alive again.
