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.

We already presented our case that you can't carry anyway.
 
I was thinking of making an excel spreadsheet showing the relative difficulty of each hero, why they are difficult (if they are) and the farm priority they should get. Could be useful for new players, any thoughts?
 
they reverted the gem change, it's green again with the old particles.

False, the particles are reduced not removed.

NEVER SHOW YOUR FACE ON THIS SIDE OF TOWN AGAIN YOU LIAR
 
That Spectre pick didn't work out at all.

Needed moar refresher

Like passives vs target anticipation?
How would you compare a lina stun vs a leshrac stun?

Great concept but ultimately it comes down to practicing with X hero as opposed to just jumping in and hoping to be good.

I've already found one of these somewhere, seemed pretty good. What you SHOULD make instead, is a spread sheet showing base dam, hp, armoer, move speed etc for every hero for every level. That would be usefull.
 
Why Orchid, he has a build in silence haha. I just rushed Bloodstone and went for Atos for manas. Though I guess the amp damage works out nice for all his nukes.

Double the silence! I had a zeus and a Cm/wd I wanted to take care of. 1 Silence wasn't enough!!

Oh I forgot I also went shadow blade cause I couldn't farm without some kind of SURPRISE BUTTSECKS happening.

Simply label it as a skillshot, if it's harder to land, such as those two, label it skillshot+ to show that its harder. If it's REALLY hard, such as Mirana's arrow, skillshot++. There would also be things such as micro, map awareness, extreme squishyness, etc, so new players will know what to expect.

Too many variables.
Combos are part of the skillshots and have to be done in context.
Like blink/rp/skewer.

Tiny 95% win rate. Report

That tactical unviewable coin toss
 
Out of curiosity, what do you guys do that allows you to watch Dota 2 vids/tournies all day? I need your job.

People here are actually watching matches while they work.

Yup. Specifically, my job actually monitors traffic and I'm not supposed to stream anything while at work on my desktop. So I went out and bought a 4G phone so that I could stream the matches on my phone. So I just program while my phone sits on the handy dandy Wii U controller stand so that I can always watch it while working.

Yeah I figured that into my question, which is why I'm asking what your job is, because I need it.

Programming! :p
