    Well even in dota, not every hero is the same. Not every hero has a blink or any sort of movement ability, not every hero has nukes, not every hero has right click passives, there's clearly defined roles that heroes can fill(some heroes fill multiple roles) and on top of that each hero is pretty...

    Currently no good way, I guess they'll fix it at some point as the current system is retarded. Courier caps out supposedly at a certain number though so unless you want the number you could stop at that, I heard max particles is 100views but no actual confirmation.

    I think Era fucked up majorly with the courier, he was next to the secret shop when the courier picked up his reaver+recipe, but instead of picking the items he sent it back to base or something? Maybe someone else did but yeah that was the key moment, I think with Satanic there's a solid chance...

    Even if it was up their bots are full I believe, can't bet unless you have items on the bots already, at least that's what one guy said I didn't bet on this round. They simply don't have the capacity to handle the amount of bets and items, hell even for shitty tournaments they have issues so...

    No idea I was just using 4 tabs, I don't really need to watch 4 games at the same time anyway, I'd usually just watch one and every 10mins check scores on other games. I ended up getting more views than possible though, I guess watching twitch and ingame at the same time gives 2views, my courier...

    I think the theory is simply they do'nt want people to be only able to do one thing, or to have to do only one thing. You can still choose to only do that one thing, and I assume you'll be able to run setups that will be focused on healing or tanking(triple utility class with a weapon that has...

    Yeah that's what the casters were saying for one of the game, which is sad since it's not supposed to remove it, or any other purge for that matter. But eh anything that makes living armor weaker is a good thing, plus IF might change it in dota1 to reflect that mechanic too if he finds it an...

    Not once, but TWICE, by different teams. He did get buffed quite a lot so I guess some teams felt like the surprise might win them games but I think you're more likely to win off a spiritbreaker pick than a bloodseeker pick.

    I didn't understand the weapon skill thing the same, to me it simply sounded like GW2 where your 4 skills are based on your weapon type, not the actual weapon. So all greatswords get the same skills, all mace+shield get the same etc. Difference comes from mods on the weapon which will affect...

    So 72 different heroes were played on the first day(6 not in -cm, 24 not picked/banned). Bunch of the heroes left are also sure to be picked at least once, with stuff like mirana, slark, PA. That's a pretty big amount, even though I guess some of them were very unsucessful picks(bloodseeker and...

    The class thing is very much how GW2 should have been, it's closer to GW1 than GW2 is. GW1 had you building from only 2 classes(main and sub) however each class had like 100s of abilities while this lets you pool all your class skills at once but by having a ton of classes with a lot less...

    Oh yeah I bet on Dignitas but I don't have much so I bet 1 by 1, and on Dignitas since I had absolutely no faith in them I bet an uncommon only. Got a bunch of rares from the Navi match and I think some from Zenith.

    It was buggy during the qualifiers iirc, like it'd join a game then join another, but eventually you'd get something. You can't watch more than one game via the ingame client anyway. On the other hand you can watch 4 streams in twitch so that's most likely the way to go for item drops.

    Maybe switching has a cooldown, and you can only switch between presets you made beforehand. So you'd pick 8skills for tanking and 8skills for healing but you can't actually change one of your healing skill to a support buff in the middle of the fight, you'd have to set it up before hand. And by...

    Meh his strength isn't the laning, it's past that. I would be fairly surprised if Abaddon doesn't see competitive play once he's added. He didn't in dota 1 much however most of the dota1 scene died before he got most of his biggest buffs(and he's been buffed heavily in a lot of the patches since...

    What's more likely to happen since it's F2P and has content user generation is that it'll go in a fake release state they'll call open beta, which is just release but disguised, where you'll be able to spend your money on shit and that won't be wiped. And that'll last a while, maybe 6months or...

    You get stat points too, which are "hard to acquire bla bla bla modify your damage but also other aspects like melee weapon range or jump height bla bla bla". Really that's basically levels, that and tiers. But it's not an arbitrary number with a certain amount of xp to fill up by grinding a...

    It's group centric, in the sense that it's better xp to level in groups and you have a bunch of storyquests that require a group to complete, but you can solo. Difficulty so far is low, might become hard in endgame but hard to tell.

    Abaddon would be Durable - Support - Lane Support and potentially Carry. He's a terrible initiator, unless you count running into people then looking at them furiously initiation.

    There's over 200k on the chinese streams too so it's pretty big numbers, even though there's probably a large amount on both game client and twitch. As for Quantic I don't think they played well but mostly they weren't gonna win teamfights easily with their setup, they had a lot of single...

    I thought it was pretty shitty, but I guess matter of taste. Builds up too slow, slightly too repetitive, didn't appeal to me much. Hope the rest of the music is better.

    The stats you get from levels is a fairly minor part of the total stats, like 10% or so, so it won't have a huge effect, plus you might be able to respec points come release or later, in the original you could reset like a few points per week or some shit.

    I'm still going to go for Scholar, their healing shit looks nice and the support buffs look insanely strong if you can do without the healing pet, plus it seems to be less Stone spammy for soloing. The thing though is I'm not sure they'll end up like this in P4, as I said the tooltip for the...

    And summoning stones were already there. They were simply absolute shit and no one bothered using them ever especially since everyone was bound in Kargath.

    It is a pretty bigger risk since almost everytime you're in melee range, you're not in cover, while you can kneecap from behind heavy cover. That said it is probably too much of a nerf and melee could use a nerf too, mostly I don't think katanas etc should remove AP as easily on any given hit...

    Right I guess, but at the same time they had just pushed the level cap to 70 when they did that. Not too sure what's the situation with those EQ2 chars vs cap, they're 85 and cap is 90 is that it? Not a big fan of the concept either way, but I guess it's a lot faster to implement than actually...
