how do i know when i need magic armor or armor armor

Are you dying to physical attacks and abilities or spells?

I just loki'd a 1500 ss with glac. It kinda felt bad man, I don't think I'm going to smurf anymore.

I'm enjoying smurfing it's fun being able to pick awful heroes without feeling guilty. I don't think I've ever destroyed anyone as badly as some of these 1500 SS's.
Ex.

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

Smurfing is fun for trying out new heroes. I just played WS and farmed a Mock while my team never bought wards and dominated the game.

The downside is that there's a Swiftblade and Pred in every single game.

 

[Anbokr]

Smurfing is luck of the draw; sometimes you get a 25-0 stomp and sometimes you go up against a group of more organized smurfs that stomp you. I always joked about swiftlame's 1v1 heaven idealism/complaints; but dang, I feel his pain. After playing soulstealer for like 50 games in a row; like 60% of those games I've been rune camped and camped mid by 2-3 people--and it's the most frustrating, unfun feeling in HoN.

 

[Guesong]

How is it any different than having a solo lane vs 2 people?

 

[VanillaCakeIsBurning]

Solo lane v 2 is unfun if it's a bad matchup. Can't really do anything but get outranged and hope your teammates respond to calls for ganks.

Also MrMr, with all due respect and all, I was surprised to see you come back to this vile, toxic, despicable community that don't understand anything that is HonGAF. Whatever happened to you being done and over with us horrible beings, badmouthing us in the other thread? The other side was not as green as you thought it was?

I haven't "come back" I'm just here as I have been, I just shut up for a week, and yes, some of you are still "vile" and "toxic". (Not you Guesong.)

oh and mr has been doing this for awhile, just dont take his rants seriously and everything is np

Nobody takes you seriously either

Whenever you see massive posts with 10+ quotes in it or a post by MrMr, ignore them.

DOES 3 QUOTES COUNT VILE DEMON

 

[erpg]

Is there ambient occlusion in those videos? Lighting looks better in the legion forest.

 

[Guesong]

Hmm...a Tuesday release?

They didn't specify if Gemini was EA or free hero as well.

2 heroes week?

Also Gemini looks like the most hard carry ever, holy shit a Double Strike.

 

[Procarbine]

Gemini + Sanjay + Thunderclaw = ???????????

 

[Guesong]

Disregard that, in-game message just said Gemini was EA.

So what's her alt costume...hmm.

 

[Kapura]

first morphling game

He's pretty fun to play not gonna lie

 

[Swag]

Seem you got carried by Drow.

 

[bzm]

they need to stop releasing heroes that look fun for EA only =[

 

[Haly]

No bfly, no heart, wtf is this?

 

[Kapura]

No bfly, no heart, wtf is this?

I'm gonna blame dota 2's lag for that. Woulda had 700 ck if not for that.

And swag: yep.

 

[Sanjay]

No bfly, no heart, wtf is this?

More like why no blink dagger? everyone in that game had one more or less.

 

[Kapura]

everybody on the other team had blink dagger invis. They had two mid, trilane bot. They weren't trying veryhard

 

[Guesong]

Sanjay go back to Q please, you're way too cuddly with that avatar.




(Also spotted Gemini's alt avatar ; it's the one in pinkish hue at start of video...not too great, will skip)

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

Gemini was made for Frostburn.

 

[bzm]

Gemini was made for Frostburn.

choos thundrclaw or bashster as ur orb obvi

 

[Kapura]

Basher with 50% bash chance? Ok.

 

[Swag]

Raven Ultra Mega dumpstered mid.

 

[n0b]

Are map reskins allowed in matchmaking games? I can't stand the default map look.

 

[Teknopathetic]

"Basher with 50% bash chance? Ok."


I don't think it's actually 50%. Call ultranerd BZM to do the probability math, but it's like 40 something %. It's weird.

I'm really disappointed in myself that I'm not sure of this answer, one way or the other, off the top of my head.

You don't have to be an ultranerd to understand probability. You just have to not be an uncouth idiot.

The probability of getting bashed is 43.75%.

 

[Teknopathetic]

That was so nerdy.

 

[delirium]

That was so nerdy.

Moody, too hipster for mathematics?

EDIT: I could ultranerd it up and educate ya'll on how I reach that answer but I won't.

 

[Haly]

Wait how does Twin Strike work? It's two attacks right?

 

[delirium]

Wait how does Twin Strike work? It's two attacks right?

Two attacks, 2nd attack does less damage. It's good if you have items that have a % based proc (thuderclaw, savage, brutalizer) or just applies effects (frostburn, nullfire)

 

[Haly]

Right, so, diminishing returns, since bashing doesn't stack. First hit is 25%, second hit is 25% of 75% (the percentage that didn't get a bash the first time around). Add together and you get del's nerdy number.

Pretty much every dota player should know about diminishing returns on proc items.

 

[delirium]

No, that 43% number was the odds that even of her attacks (since you have 2 changes of proc) procs Basher.

 

[Haly]

That's what I said!

[Kapura]

ope, i posted without thinking about it. Yeah, it's 43.75% chance per strike. But that's still pretty fuckin epic.

 

[Switftlame]

wait, burglerking got banned? oh no.

yep its a sad day

 

[Haly]

ope, i posted without thinking about it. Yeah, it's 43.75% chance per strike. But that's still pretty fuckin epic.

You could get two bashers.

OMG 43.75% CHANCE PER STRIKE.

 

[Tomat]

Moody, too hipster for mathematics?

I was hoping you would.

 

[delirium]

I was hoping you would.

The probability of at least 1 proc happening P(at least 1 proc) is equal to the probability of 1 - P(both attacks NOT procing).

1 - .75 * .75 = .4375

 

[Haly]

Okay so only Kage, Tomat and Alum are on Rift, but the HoN channel is still empty.

Where are all of you bitches.

 

[Swag]

Dota2 until people log in that I can TMM with!

 

[PillowKnight]

This is just a ploy to keep me at the bottom of the dumpster.

Also, installing rift did you fukers out level me?
