So how does OD counter anti Mage? (haven't seen OD yet so curious)
Last few weeks I've watched so much Dota2 I feel like I have at least a bit of a handle on the meta game. I have favourite teams, favourite heroes and a few favourite players (although the actual meatbags who tappity tap tap the keyboards to make the heroes move around and do cool shit are pretty fungible really, I mainly cheer for the teams who play a pleasing style to me). I'm keeping up on The Defense and TPL, and I've even started watching players stream a bit to get more of a feel of how micro gameplay works.
It makes me want to, you know, play Dota. I've never played the WC3 Dota though I guess I could, and I don't want to play LoL or HoN. Hurry the hell up and expand the beta Valve, don't make me play LoL, visually I just can't bear it.
Oh, and who are good players to watch stream? I've found a few decent ones, but sadly so often I start watching a stream and enjoy it for 5-10 minutes until the moron drops a racial epithet or homophobic slur. Always an insta-leave for me, I'm too old to listen to jackasses defend using the N word because he doesn't actually hate back people. FFS gaming community.
"What does Single Draft mode mean?"
The game picks 3 heroes for you. You are able to pick one of the three to play or trade with a teammate for one of their 3.
fuck draft AND all pick now.
3 straight matches, I had only 2 choices: Sniper and Alchemist.
For the love of Christ, why.

Bug
Turn off all pick if you want to do single draft
His orbs are pure damage, and do a ton of damage. So, Antimage's low hp pool that relies on spell shield to tank is useless vs him. OD easily gets 200+ dmg with autoattacks with nothing more then force staff, treads, mek at lvl 12. His banish poofs Antimage for 4 seconds, making it impossible for him to chase down a hero and if unfortunate enough, can get him killed b/c it steals int. His ulti deals 8/9/10x the difference between his int and the enemy's in a huge aoe, so that's more ice'ing on the cake.

Yo The_Player, your the king of reposting, First the images of Lycan etc, and now the thing about Heroes in Learn, like you don't read the thread
Player on the other team auto-locks od, I autopick silencer and rape face. He tries to ult me, does no damage, I murder him. I had stolen 40+ int over the match. :n
Ugh I am a silencer picker. I hate playing against silencer, but man I love playing him.
Dota is "balanced" by counters, don't feel bad.

Guys dont tell anyone but:
1) Random +200g
2) Repick -100g
3) ???????
4) PROFITT!!!!!
That's the first thing I thought of when I read that. Seems weird that we are allowed to pull that off.
Also, I pretty much hate all pick. CM and SD sound like the best thing to happen to matchmaking. I was more hyped for that than the new hero. Is it as beautiful as I am imagining it?

Edit - LoL cant believe it actually works. AllPick, randomed Void, repicked Razor had ~750gold.

I'd imagine they'll hotfix it tonight.
Outworld Destroyer has to be one of the best heroes. Each one of his skills works so well in literally destroying anyone.
Is there anything bad about him?

Valve nerfed Omniknight. He now requires 2 hands to swing his hammer.
According to Bleach, that's a buff.Valve nerfed Omniknight. He now requires 2 hands to swing his hammer.
damn, SD is pretty broken. started a game of SD in which it only gave me 2 options instead of 3 (Night Stalker and Death Prophet). I played my game with NS and wanted to play an All Pick afterwards. In the hero selection screen all the heroes were greyed out, except for DP.
If you play SD then AP it just lets you picked the SD heroes you got, surprised so many people are having issues with it though, first thing I did was mess around with searching to see if it cleared it (also using the drop down menu fixes it)
