Dota 2 Discussion (~Boston Majors & Road to TI7~)

[Humppaleka]

Ok Hippies. Now that I feel a bit confident playing with certain heroes, I wouldn't mind partying some some of you. Anyone wants to set a date for this saturday?

I could, though I haven't played in a while (y u no invite Codex Dota 2 squad) so I'll try and get a few games under my belt tomorrow.

Dont know if worth it, we dont play any Dex games. I play regularly with Merkwürdigliebe and sometimes with few others but other than that nothing really happens.

 

[Malakal]

That having said anyone who wants can add me - Malakal here and there, save avatar too.

 

[Cromwell]

Playing with 2 friends of mine regularly, if someone wnats you cann ad me slackjack

 

[Cromwell]

I do hope your expectations arent very high skillwise <.<

 

[Kane]

my expectations aren't even high gamewise

 

[Hoodoo]

playing now 1v1 me same hero fagiots only mid no re's

 

[Cromwell]

whats with the organizing thing? Im still searching for one or two decent players, someone who speaks kraut wuld be awesome since im playing with two freinds in skype. Or someone who would course in polish that would at least entertain me very much.

 

[Cromwell]

I just bumb this because theres nothing about a forum with a 400 + thread about league and a sinking dota thread.

 

[RK47]

....i own the game but duno how to play.
im azn.
do i qualify?

 

[Malakal]

Thanks for compliments but you are not sucking as much as you think you do. Speaking english and following basic tactics can really go far in public match making. I would focus on learning some nukers/suports though as they are generally more new player friendly.

Especially warlock is quite excellent and has an amazing win rate of 55%.

There are people out there who do? woah. Bonuspoints to anyone who dont uses the speak option if he doesnt have a decent microfone or a voice that is understandable without problems.

it's a fucking tragedy. but you have to remember that the average gamer is shit at playing games, so it's only natural that the easier-to-learn, easier-to-play game with cartoony esthetics is more appealing. accessibility and 'streamlining' = huge success.

Im still waiting for someone to explain to me the deep tactics of League, aside from picking the right team. I really ried to get into it, with their League system and the fact that I Like skin changes more then Valves Armor drop system. But neither I nor the 2 people I regularly play dota with (one of them strctly refused to even try league again) found LoL very compelling after spending a good amount of Time in Dota.

I read Thread upon Thread on the diffeerences between the two games, on Tactics in League and everything I got out of it was that league has tactical play just not the same amount of them you can find in DOTA, and everything they pride league for I can also find in dota and I can usually assume its more complex there.

Dude, what the fuck is up with the hero release schedule? There hasn't been any new hero for what, over a month now? Even though I don't play dota anymore (or pretty much any other game, for that matter), it still fucking itches me the wrong way.

 

[Ulminati]

Since the last DotA2 champ, LoL had 2 champions, resource bar overhaul, new ping system and restricted chat mode for people who rage too much. Not to mention another new map + matchmaking queue for aram, a champ, a remake and a new CC tracker on the test servers

New ping system (radial menu for MIA/Danger/Help/Attention) in paticular is a godsend.

 

[Malakal]

Gotta add all those armor sets, get your priorities right.

 

[Gurkog]

I was wondering why people lap up this two dimensional team based tactical escort games when Monday Night Combat looks to be infinitely more fun?

Some people enjoy using their brain while gaming. I know it's not for everyone, though.

Those Riot guys sure come up with some original stuff!

Yeah it's not like any one implemented a superior version of this previously in a similar game.

You should mention that it was sarcasm though.
