Gullin stream is such shit, I have no idea how you guys can watch it. It's making you all worse.

Define worse.
 
Can someone explain the appeal of pretending to be a woman in your Steam profile?

I understand using a sexy lady as your avatar so everyone can see it and maybe they'll play one handed and give you an easy win.

But what's with people who change their avatar and their screen name to (insert random Asian girl)? So many creepy fanboys.

they probably use it to swindle free hats

Everyone on the Internet is a guy until you know very well they're not.

I use a Korean Pop idol as my avatar and her name as my username, but if you look on my profile I make it clear I'm a guy. SO I AM SSAFE FROM YOUR JUDGEMENTS MR. ODD!!!!
 
I thought they were just going to do a list, good on them for breaking down the winners and explaining their reasoning. Look forward to seeing who won grand prize (
alpine ursa
).

Also sets in by next week = awesome.
 
Don't really like the Princess Jasmine TA set but I love the other two. Excited to see what else was chosen.

Actually I think the TA set they chose isn't the Princess Jasmine set which had a hood on it if I recall correctly.

Oops, that's definitely it. Oh well. I love it personally
 
Well-deserved sets. Glad to see Valve's explanations on there as well, couldn't agree more. There were A LOT of sets submitted that I thought had superfluous detail in the wrong areas or just completely disregard the overall art style of Dota 2, which I think is very distinct.

Not digging the Witchdoctor one but the other two sets are pretty good (and two of my predictions)!

What's the chance these items will get custom animations. Like WD's bouncing cask will be that egg?

That would make my year. And considering the season it would be appropriate too! Make it happen, Valve!
 
So Ive been watching this gullin stream and this guy is playing with a pro russian player, dude has been riding his dick and kicked his friends so it can just be those two in a party together. "You're playing perfectly massacre." Said the other people were feeding and were nowhere near as good as his hero.

This is so, so pathetic.

i just watched some pro gullin action for the 1st time before....didnt take longer then his first word to realize whats up with this dude.

Gotta make a drinking game out of his stream (if there isnt 10000 already)
 
God how can some people be so dumb. I just had a fucking void go double daedalus. Even worst is when Mags uses ult, as Jakiro I cast mine but he SKEWS THEM ALL AWAY.
 
We had an Ursa who, though out the bulk of the game, would try to 1v5 the enemy team and just die. So, the enemy decides to rapidly push mid after we got team wiped, Ursa was back up first (Due to dying 50 seconds before in a 1v5), and yet he that is the proper time to exercise caution and stop trying to 1v5 them, when he is the only one alive and they are trying to push for victory. Enemies take down mid tower, mid rax, no problem. After that, they just jump on Ursa. Doesn't even make use of his BKB or Shadow Blade, doesn't even get a single auto attack off, just dies trying to run away.

Then, he buys back. Note, this meant he had the money to buy back when we were alive before the team wipe, but thats anther matter. Now, the rest of us are starting to get close to coming back, 20ish seconds, we really just need him to hold them off. So, what do you think he did? Stood behind the two T4. Get all the enemies crowd control dumped on him, and when he has 200 HP left, he then uses BKB and decides to man up. Dies in anther second, got 2 hits off in two lives. Enemies more just ignore clockwork and axe and just win.

I never even got to respawn before they killed the Ancient :/
 
The depth of mad that comes out from 4-man queues when I get randomly chosen as captain... Holy shit. It's like playing with four angry gullin15s. Delusional to the point that it feels like a total joke. Sorry the game chose me as your captain! I'll try not to random captain next game!

Been there. It sucks. I just tell them I'll do whatever they want.
 
So what's up with that Gullin dude? I watched him for a bit last night - is he actually good? I only watched for 15 minutes or so and he played well enough, but nothing spectacular. He acted like he was the best Weaver in the world, though. Do people just watch him for the chuckles? He was a real rager. "YOU TALKED TO ME AND MADE ME DIE!" Alrighty then.
 
60 FPS, very nice.

Edit: Just one thing I'm noticing: Since Slardar is the only hero in the offlane, Naga should be fairly safe and you should be stacking and pulling the medium camp to both deny Slardar EXP and to get faster levels for Naga and yourself.

Edit2: Oh wait, you're doing that. Nevermind!

Edit3: Brilliance Aura is a one point wonder in my opinion. Your other abilities are much more powerful early game.

Yeah I feel 60 fps is pretty necessary, streaming at half your fps just looks kinda weird.

Thanks for the advice, everytime I don't skill her aura I feel super gimped. I know that's just me though because whenever I watch other people play they never seem to run out of mana with just a point or two!

Nice stream. What program are people using to stream dota2 these days?

Using Open Broadcaster Software, I dabbled in streaming before with that adobe flash encoder but the OBS is free and so much easier to use. Doesn't seem to strain my system much either.
