IRC chatter should remain in IRC - http://webchat.quakenet.org/?channels=tl.dota2

Posts that relate to topics with their own thread, such as in News, Tournaments or Strategy should go in those threads.

iG also has to keep playing Dota 1

Having different hotkeys for both would be somewhat akward.

I had to force myself out of the legacy keys. The first 50 games were a torture.

Legacy all the way forever gg.

Started in 6.49, would be weird to change now. Started playing more seriously around 6.53 iirc. Kunkka and Alleria my first "new hero map".

woah, from iGs Facebook: All iG Dota players use legacy key settings in Dota2! : )

So does Purge, it doesn't really say much more than "This player played Dota 1 so much that they are actually better at an inferior system". I do think there are a few instances where legacy keys can actually be better though, invoker comes to mind.


YES

I will never use QWERDF for Invoker. It feels weird for me when I play Puck too, don't know why.

Any of you guys remember Dota Tides of Darkness? It had a hero who had global TP, Holy Light/Death Coil(doing fucktons of damage/healing), you would get 100xlevel amount of gold for killing someone(yes, level 7 is 700 gold) and you could trade gold too

it was fucking ridicilous but somewhat fun too.

Pretty sure warlock was in the pool looooooooooooooooooooong before any of the rest of those heroes.

Puck is the earliest 'new' hero that I remember and he was put in for 6.48.

Oh, and legacy keys 4 lyfe. Don't know why you're surprised that a lot of old-time pros use it, it's what they're used to + they still play Dota 1 nowadays. I believe all of Na`Vi also use legacy keys.

I remember that one, it was insane. "click on it, opponet runs around tower, you die".
Ive played dota for a veeeery long time, with Riki deathward, Tides of darkness and some other versions aswell.

BAck then, i played it with a group of friends, 4v4 on Lan because my friends dad had a computer shop. Also shitloads of 4v4 broodwar and so.

We were soo bad when we started, lifesteal was THE best item in game everyone thought, sange and yasha was also top tier item, bkb was shit, and meka was too weak. (this was the time when meka overlapsed aswell).

Great, performance improvements just when I get a new computer. Oh well, still can't complain. And I clearly remember the first version I played was 6.59d, back when int carries like DP and Necrolyte were unstoppable, Bloodstone healed 2 hp and mp per charge, heart healed 1% of hp even during combat, NA mana burn was broken (like 250 mana at level 7) and Dirge was permanently banned. Heroes like AA, Disruptor, Rubick, TC and Wisp weren't even out yet. Same went for items like Medallion, Arcane boots, Urn, Pipe, Drums and Smoke. I bet many people here were around for even longer though

never played NA against an OD ? 700~~ manaburn.

This is with the new mana burn only. And 700 mana burn is pretty much shrugged off by an OD, though obviously the damage hurts.

I remember trying DotA after my brother had downloaded it, only because the picture in the warcraft 3 custom games menu was so badass. This one

How could you be more hipster then me?

im not sure its possible for dota players to be hipsters, i dont think that Dota is available on mac, so how could any of the players be hipsters?

How about when WC3 DOTA was using the snow tileset pre 6.20? It was painful to the eyes when you play at night when you have all the lights off.

That was actually pretty late? I mean that was LoA 1.0 and he came i dunno, when Dota was allready pretty developed/finnished (it was clearly allready the game we have today)?

Puppey has some weird ass hotkey setup. Dendi made a lot of jokes about it in some old interview.
