[Anbokr]

gaiz lets all make lists so we can bring out some more hongaf salt in dis thread

 

[Archie]

Luna, Wisp, Dirge and Meepo are all likely candidates for upcoming heroes. Naga Siren, Templar Assassin and Nyx Assassin are likely after the previously mentioned four. KotL and Disruptor are long shots.

Newbie tier : If you're still learning the heroes, you go here; SteveWinwood.

Of course left out people who weren't on the original list, except chair cause he complained.

RE TIER EDIT: If you want to try out for being moved up a tier, beat someone in a tier above in a best of 5 solo mid. I will personally move you up a tier.

 

[Neki]

why am I on the same tier as archie

wtf

there needs to be a throw tier just for pillow, sanjay and thorinbei though.

dat holy trinity of throwers

 

[Haly]

Loki and Thor have been playing more, recently, but they're not "Free Win Tier" like they used to be in HoN.

Then again I never MM'd with them because lol 1900s.

 

[SteveWinwood]

You guys should circlejerk more.

#realtalk

 

[Artanisix]

i would definitely place neki in trash tier

loki and thor aren't nearly as good at dota 2 as they were at hon (from what i know)

change tomat to god tier

if I belong in trash tier, you're garbage land tier with puppetyuber

 

[Dreavus]

Is there really no way to enable enemy mana bars?

Hasn't been a huge issue for me, more of an annoyance. Coming from HoN it just seems nonsensical.

EDIT:

Spoiler

Oops. A quick google search indicates this has been an ongoing discussion between newer players and DOTA1 purists since... basically since the game first went into beta. If you guys have had this discussion already, then pay no attention.

 

[Haly]

I would put Pro above Alumnus, if only because I tend to value carry players more than support ones (since I'm usually playing support/half support).

The purists are keeping that feature out of the game for whatever inane reason they have.

 

[Artanisix]

wait wait, put neki in picks-op-class-but-then-when-it-gets-nerfed-rerolls-hardcore-to-feel-validated tier

I love you Alum but I need to be carried. You're much better at supporting than you are at carrying.

i play carries all da time bro. when i pcik i always fill in the gapz tho. so dun hate the playa dawg hate the other players

 

[Haly]

Show me your moves Alum, carry me with PA.

 

[Neki]

wait wait, put neki in picks-op-class-but-then-when-it-gets-nerfed-rerolls-hardcore-to-feel-validated tier

I was playing the OP class before it was OP. You're playing the OP class when it became OP. You can faceroll the keyboard and you manage to kill everything with your class.

 

[FromTheFuture]

Show me your moves Alum, carry me with PA.

my last game was pa check the reps brahski

even has big throwz atemps 4 ur vewing plezshurr

 

[Haly]

I'd check for them but I can't spell your steam name without having an aneurysm.

[Haly]

Okay bumping Alum back up until pro can pull off a 25-x-x PA game.

Grats , you're on the list now! Jerk away.

[Lirlond]

We should do a gaf ladder.

 

[Haly]

We should do a gaf ladder.

Reopen the salt mines!

 

[Insured]

Isn't this the official GAF ladder?!

 

[Drkirby]

That is for HoN, and no one on GAF seems to actually play it anymore. At the very least, there has been only 100 posts in the HoN topic in the past 3 months.

 

[Neki]

Well I got the most points on that ladder, so that obviously means I was the best.

 

[Drkirby]

wait wait, put neki in picks-op-class-but-then-when-it-gets-nerfed-rerolls-hardcore-to-feel-validated tier

But Dota 2 doesn't have "Death Match" mode yet.

 

[Haly]

Numbah 5 in HoNGAF, you can datte believe it.

 

[SamVimes]

Can anyone check this out? dota2://matchid=22385847&matchtime=4748

Match id: 22385847
Time: around 71:25

I really don't understand why my ult (i'm Juggernaut) didn't jump to invoker.

 

[TyrantGuardian]

Hongaf is so passé.

It's all about Tyrant's big carry shadow fiend strat nowadays. Hugoboss21 loves it!

 

[DarkKyo]

So I'm new-ish to the game. Probably played around 30 matches overall and just recently got back into it. Now I'm quite addicted. I'd like to try more characters but there are so many that I'm not sure what direction to head in. I'm the best with Bane, with a ratio of 9:3 in my last game. After that I'm pretty decent with Rubick. Based on this, anyone know what other heroes might be worth trying for me? Thanks!

I don't know if this is a sound idea for someone completely new, but what happened to me was my friend forced me to play random, and not care how much I died. This forced me to learn heroes first-hand and eventually I learned who did what and how.

It probably took longer than it should have, but paying attention to what enemy heroes helps too

 

[Procarbine]

sorry i doubted u bb

brb picking PA forever.

I play support and gankers too, haters.

 

[kagete]

I haven't won a game since last week... I think i'm in shit tier now. Also, regarding Loki/Thor, I hate to say this but loki's clearly the better player right now (and his stats show it). He plays way more games and generally has more tryhard friends that he rolls with regularly. Thor is like archie in that he wants to play X hero Y games in a row, or play a hero he gets an item drop for in the last game. He's also slightly more chill with losing I think.

 

[Ikuu]

Thor just needs to stop dying so much and he would do a lot better.

 

[Artanisix]

kag is #1 in my heart

 

[Wes]

Thor is #1 at killstealing.

 

[dave is ok]

Since League of Legends has been having hour long queues, I've been playing DOTA2. 7 wins so far and only two losses

I'm pretty terrified to play anyone but Invoker though - and I'm not outstanding with him or anything.

Anyway, Treads or Phase Boots for him?

 

[kagete]

Thor is #1 at killstealing.

Wes is a close #2. He can get on wodota with just his WR killsteal moves.

kag is #1 in my heart

Milk <3's my fembarb's thick thighs. Barb #1 classes in D3 post 1.03; Fembarb x Enchantress is canon!

 

[Ikuu]

Thor also going to be the first one to get banned/muted/put in low priority.

 

[Killer]

is it worth spending 40$ on the invitation bundle? I see a lot of people raving about this game and i just wanna see what its all about...
