Dota 2 Beta Thread 4: Even Mike Ross Plays [Elder Titan]

So I managed to really carry properly with Morphling today for the first time, and it was a blast. Two-shotting dudes with Ethereal Blde + Adaptive Strike was so satisfying
 
Shouldn't a double Crystalis give a 36% chance to crit? (i.e the chance of at least one.) That's not that bad, although the dps increase is still less than a Daedalus. I definitely going to try it on Kunnka sometime though.
 
Qpad just lost to a unknown team that got 2 rapiers.

Select is being absolutely useless every time I see them, but the heroes he gets to pick aren't ideal either.

BABARR maphacked in dota 1.

oh, and probably the rest of his team back then as well

Personally, I think DD is like a collection of the worst people ever to grace dota.

Didn't everyone maphack in Warcraft 3? Blizzard didn't give a fuck.
 
A bit different if you do it during a competitive match though...

Why? If there is a loophole in competitive play it is the organizations job to close it.
Blizzard did not give 2 fucks and the organizers kept making Dota tourneys.

Like if someone made a Dota 2 maphack you don't think everyone would be using it?

Double crystalis: just gives you better chances for a crit, actually works. Would be better off upgrading to daedalus though.

I would consider building a Crystalis after building Daedulus on some characters but I definitely wouldn't build it before building a Daedulus all the way out. Better bang for your buck in Daedulus. I'd rather crit higher rather than increasing my chances to crit.

Don't get me wrong, I would never say that he did a good build there. All I said was "it works", but it's a mediocre build at best, there's about 10+ other items I would've gotten before a second crystalis.
 
You really think so lowly of people that you expect everyone to use a maphack...?
Boot up WC3 now and ask if they hacking. They'll say yes, but everyone does it.

I'm not meeru. I'd lose my career and my licence if I was committing eBay fraud for "hundreds of dollars" worth of beta keys.

Puppey paws. They fixed it.
DDoS. They supposedly fixed it.
Same in any competitive game - unless you patch the holes - people will exploit it, especially if money is on the line.

Yes? If they are independent events then the probability of at least one success is 1.0 - (0.8*0.8) = 0.36. Unless I misunderstood how that works.

Also depends if you got a crit the last time you attacked.

More in the idiomatic sense.

Wow I haven't heard that expression used that way since I was in kindergarten. Please keep us updated on how you do.

Sounds a lot like something meeru would say! After all, he maphacked in sc2!

ok, it really comes down to cya @ lan, actual pro teams rarely ever cheat in any real competitive game
Scum of the earth.

can't you turn on health bars through the settings? i'm pretty sure you could

That was introduced in some wc3 patch, dunno what year though
 
So this Skywrath fellow.

He's too fuckin good. Support or mid it doesn't matter. Pair him with a stun or slowing carry (CK, Sven, Drow, Slar, Slark, Ursa, etc.) and you win the lane. He's broken and def my new favorite hero. He can farm at will, against anyone and a 4 second 40% slow @ level 1 that you can cast from damn near half a mile away is a lane-winning skill.

Not when I played.

I used the name spoofer and name color changer too.

Get at me.
 
Thinking Soul Ring could prove useful for Mage after level 6. Two free Arcane Bolts per use or a Free Concussive Shot or Ancient Seal, and then the +50% mana regen for after your use of Mystic Flare blows a hole in your mana pool.

Medallion of Courage is also a really good fit for him if he's not playing support and not planning on an early Mekansm, plugs his armor gap and gives him an additional +50% mana regen, and goes without saying it's really good for early-midgame fights or Roshan.

Clearly a joke post. Otherwise it's just asinine.

Should do 10 Chaos Knights, to see who is the most skilled.

Don't forget WTF mode.
 
someone tell bruno to wear a proper shirt.... faggit lol
Hey, sorry about those two asshats last night in that game man. Shit was rough. That one dude was driving me nuts, and it takes a lot to get me angry in game. I'm usually the beef squasher.

Such a douche.
Does anyone here use Raidcall instead of Skype for chat?
Mumble all day erreday. Skype has insane latency, worse than telephones.

Remember when Puppetyuber got permad for calling rac a fag? Good times... now they're both dead to everyone.

I feel like I need to apologize publicly to euro-gaf for my outburst yesterday. I misplaced blame on you guys when I should've just been blaming that Slark (or myself). I will submit myself to being ward bitch for one(1) game of your collective choosing where the enemy team will get supported the shit out of.
