the tranquil boots change and the riki ulti change really bother me if only because it makes him harder to control in pub games especially with the change to sentry wards... also if i'm reading right the jungling nerf is exp only so i think their may have been some overreacting about that...

Also just realized the change to rikis ult means he can run around with a dagon and not break invis

are the changes to jungleing experience only or is there gold nerf in there as well? Also what nerf to qop? Im just seeing a mana cost reduction? also is it just me or putting Skywrath ult or rubick gettings aghs version if he has one a bit unbalanced? finally how long is it going to take to...

sutekh i don't know if its a good or bad thing we live in the same city. i have to work until 8 that friday but i'd go up right after and stay with friends for the weekend... i'm pretty tempted to do it. this isn't the type of thing that sells out where i should get a ticket now is it? looking...

I realized that the next big tournament is at columbus which is very close to me. I'm debating on going to check it out but I'm not sure if it'd be worth it. A regular ticket is about 35 or 50 at the door. Has anyone gone to one of these and Is it worth going or did you get more enjoyment...

Lol I was hoping for an all encompassing article or something to help me understand team comp etcs. Im starting to figure out a few things like melee carries grab a ghost scepter or grab a slow like viper. Or dont run 2 melee against a duel ranged but I get frustrated when im on a hero needing...

Can anyone recommend a good write up on counter picking lane combos etc? Ive watched the purge videos but I realized last night this may be my greatest weakness. Im still not good on whos good against whom who I should want to play with who I can kill etc. Also realized watching the pro scene I...

Thanks for the help. Haven't played rubrick yet been focusing alot on wr lina and brew any tips on how to play him?

Limited heroes pool is a great way to play and learn... once that came out I played that and just randomed every game. for the most part they're simpler heroes and you can pick up on all of them pretty quickly and get running

Spirit breaker I grab venge and sit with another hero and ward the river and at my level (normal) the sb just dies repeatedly. To a lesser extent lina works too. Axe and troll though seem to shit on the games ive been in recently how do you counter those 2?

Im confused I thought there was only one incident and that was more a personality thing then a raging thing? So far I thought everyones been real chilll during these things and hell I did the dumbest thing possible and got killed before a match! Anyways ill be out of the country for the...

I just picked up kotor for the ipad (im traveling this week) I always wanted to play it but didn't get the chance back when it came out hoping that this is a good crossover

The id for one of the games he casted is 297677909. It should work I think. I was able to download it but havent listened to it yet

Unless I miss understood your humor I feel like this is more likely to incite drama then help it. Hoping to get on before 10 so if your still going ill try to join in if you guys need. Love these things and really learn alot even if it is pelican destroying me before the match even begins!

Ill be on late tonight so if your still going ill try to jump in then

That was alot of fun tonight. Hopefully we keep this up and iron out the few difficulties and be able to put together a small inhouse tourny.

Ill be on right around 9 or a little after and would definitely be down for an inhouse.

You can't ban lich! What other hero can I buy wards then run into a team fight and just so long as I get the ulti off before I die ive been successful! On a serious note almost any sunday is really good for me simply bc I dont do much that day

Im bad but im definitely up for it.

Just wanted to chime in and say thank you as well. Reth im convinced you have more patience than most saints. most of this community is pretty awesome about having the patience to answer noob questionsso I tried using clinkz in a bot game to work last hitting and pennence, that was both awesome...

First of all thank all of you for taking the time to watch those games and post your comments I appreciate any and all help. I know watching that level of bad was probably really painful. Accordion: when you say I'm missing fundamentals im assuming your referring to last hitting and proper...

So any chance some of our resident skilled players could take a look at a couple of my games and offer some advice because i'd like to get better at this game but feel like i'm kind of stuck and I'm hoping a different perspective could help me. 278309827 <-- Anti mage game ( i know probably...

What a way to be introduced into the esports world. That championship series was extremely exciting and honestly that last game was an emotional roller coaster. Honestly I thought aysee(sp?) Did a pretty good job casting bu then I didnt mind any of the casters other then sheree and bc im not...

So I found out when I got home today that my modems shot and missed the first day. This may be my ignorance showing but how did tongfu beat fnatic? I really thought after they beat navi on Saturday that they'd do better. Pissed I missed all the games..

Anyone else having issues with the dota2 network disconnecting alot. Seems like ill watch a game then get disconnected for awhile

basically play bot games until i feel comfortable enough with both the hero and mechanics to try going mid in pub games. Guess i could've said that better lol. thanks for the response weaponsfree I'll try those guys out and see which one i like best to start learning next.

Whats a good hero to practice mid with? From what ive seen so far maybe nyx skywrath or shadow fiend?

I actually agree with you and if I feed i immediately apologise. I love when people offer advice in game but im hesitant to start the game admitting im new to the hero only bc three times in a row ive had someone say "great a fucking newb" then rage quit 5 mins in. Outside of the in game guides...

I've actually been doing this with the limited hero pool they put in for tutorial purposes. it's nice because i've got some experience now with the 20 heroes you can pick from. basically i just random then real quickly look at the in game guides and skills and just see what happens. I think now...

Is there anywhere you can watch these matches after the fact or do you have to purchase the tournament thing to see them. I wanted to check out some of the pro matches you guys are always talking about

I like the idea of brackets... im bad so im always hesitant to jump in with guys that are in the higher brackets cause I dont want to as one person told me "your ruining everyones fun by being bad" .

If at all possible can I join in w you draegan if you guys get together to learn it? Graywolf in game. Dota2wiki has a decent run down on the heroes if your looking for something to read

Ive only been playing for about 2 weeks so I kind of know what your going through. Ive been watching alot of purge plays and northernlion plays videos to get a feel for heroes and items to build. For me personally lich veno chaos knight blood seeker vengeful spirit bristle back and brood mother...

Id be down for the guild if you guys don't mind a complete newbie joining in. Would be fun if there where a few others just starting out to play with. Would be nice to avoid some one in an all random game telling me how retarded and bad I am Bc I sucked playing ancient apparition. Ironically...

I was hesitant about going all random Bc I figured people would be more likely to flame but if that's the case then I think that'd be more fun. (Plus I have a tablet so could always google the hero to get an idea.) I think ill also give tide hunter a try pretty soon to. As to farming I have to...

Everytime ive run into windrunner shes leading in deaths lol. How does she do without a lot of farm? I like support characters for the live game Bc even if I screw up I still feel like I'm contributing. Lich was fun Bc of his ultigood to know about clinkz he just seems to be a lot of fun so I...

So ive been playing a bunch of bot matches and finally played a few live matches w veno lich and chaos knight. I just wanted a few opinions on another fun support to try next ( I like to play a few bot games to get a feel then go live w the hero) ill be honest didn't like maiden. Ive read the...

Did google dota2bot and it brought up a couple of options and I wanted to make sure I had it right. Sorry sutekh I'm not trying to be intentionally stupid I wasn't sure if you were refering to a specific account etc. Cybsled I pmed it to you and thanks in advance if you can help wasn't...

I'm sorry I feel stupid but is this a group individual? Or just try any of the dota2bot people that send them?

Anyone still have any invites left? Would love to play this.
