is there a gaf inhouse league? pubs are unbearable.

Perfect Blue · Nov 25, 2011

I'm getting much better recently. I don't know what it is, I don't seem to be playing much differently besides knowing when to retreat. I play Lina btw. It must be my item build.

Going from solo queue to GAF queue the difference in skill is akin to climbing a fucking cliff. Sorry for dragging everyone down. Hurrar for a couple of my good ults though.

All you need to know is to blame Sanjay when you lose, no matter what he's done in a game.

No need for the salt about yourself, you played well. We all played reasonably well, we just weren't working as a team. We all made little mistakes we just didn't gel tonight. Sometimes it just works, others it doesn't.

Fixed a few cases where Bane would try to cast an ability on an invalid target.

wwm0nkey · Nov 25, 2011

Fuck the community for this game, last 5 matches I played my entire team just fucking stopped playing about 2 minutes in also judging from the in-game chat I would assume I am playing with 12 year olds on XBL sometimes :/

It will be years before we get all the heroes.

YEARS.

How many are missing (I didn't play the original Dota)? I know two are in the pipeline right now.

Haly · Nov 25, 2011

Currently 60 heroes.

DOTA has 104 heroes.

Generally development progress isn't linear, which is why some weeks have three and some weeks have zero.

I couldn't check before I had to go. So does that mean Naix is in?

I thought they would stick to a one per weak schedule at least, since both Alchemist and Warlock arrived by themselves, compared to DK/Omni and Jakiro/Huskar/Bat and QoP/SK/Brood the previous weeks.

Granted SA arrived by himself.

I'm tempted to make a GT5 joke here but I think i already used it on these forums.

Not yet unfortunately.

First ban of the game: Night Stalker

Synderen on suicide watch.

Sibylus · Nov 25, 2011

Really impressive performance from Wild Honey Badgers (No NS? No problem!). Fnatic's Antimage can't have been happy at having a guaranteed kill denying himself on neutral creeps twice, especially seeing how starved for money he was going to be later on

Drkirby · Nov 25, 2011

I loved the double Neutral Deny, so great.

Yeah I see it, thought that was some sort of schedule haha D:

I sort of wish it was, there is simply no schedule.

Next game is WHB vs BX3, I am betting on a stomp by WHB, unless we get some sort of Rock Paper Scissors situation, where each team has its own bane.

Sibylus · Nov 25, 2011

Hoping WHB go all the way, they're fun to watch (a little unconventional too, in places).

Rygar 8 Bit · Nov 25, 2011

25ish minutes till the next round

Drkirby · Nov 25, 2011

Rygar 8 Bit said:

Nope, was just announced it is getting bumped up, starting in any moment.

So, bets on ban picks? I am guessing Night Stalker and Lich.

Edit: Tidehunter and Lich ban, and they PICK Night Stalker. But, Nature's prophet on WHB. This will be fun.

Rygar 8 Bit · Nov 25, 2011

lol lich ban

Drkirby · Nov 25, 2011

Lich is scary, he needs nothing to be effective. He can have zero farm, under leveled, and still be useful.

Sibylus · Nov 25, 2011

BX3 go for the Night Stalker deny *teehee*

Rygar 8 Bit · Nov 25, 2011

natures prophet is pretty damn fun

Sibylus · Nov 25, 2011

Filling in the breaks with International replays, and it's kinda weird seeing the old hero models again. Lion, for instance. Was kinda unsure about the new model when it first surfaced, but looking back at the old there's no question it's an improvement.

Drkirby · Nov 25, 2011

That Reminds me, Lion is the only character who I just can't figure out why he is called Lion. It seems like such an odd job title.

Sibylus · Nov 25, 2011

I thought his job title was Demon Witch. As for why he's named Lion, I haven't the foggiest. Broad nose, scary teeth?

Archie · Nov 25, 2011

Lion is his name, Demon Witch is his title. Valve seems to name characters based on their most popular usage was in DotA 1 which causes inconsistencies (i.e. using Drow Ranger instead of Traxex and Shadow Shaman instead of Rhasta.)

Drkirby · Nov 25, 2011

Oh, alright, that make since.

Well, for this week it is worth noting that it is a U.S. holiday, so they're probably only working half the week and thus don't have time to hotfix anything if the hero launches broken.

What stream? I'm watching Joindota.com and all I see is a waiting screen for SK vs Honey Badgers.
