Every single patch seems to just have these strange graphics glitches that always slip through, invoker has had no head in every single game I've seen him in today and there have been weird invis glitches with smoke

Switched when Invoker came out, never looked back, although playing Puck and TA was kinda fucked up for some reason.

I can´t empathise all the hotkey problems people keep having.
Years ago I set up my war keys so the main spell I use on every hero is "t", secondary is "r", third is "e", fourth is "z".
Don´t exactly remember why, I think my index finger just rested naturally over t when my pinkie hovered over the "a" button(attack move is the most used command, so there).
I actually set up every single hero individually back then. Every. Single. Hero. Took forever, evaluating which skill I will use how often etc. correcting the setup of certain heroes if I found myself confusing the hotkeys of spells on them.

Only lately I had to actually move my hand a bit more with SC2 grid hotkeys(attack move is on "t", perfect :D) and in Dota 2 I didn´t find an option to bind my itemslots to "space + t/r/e", so I use the row below t/r/e for items now.
Nowadays I use around an entire 3x5 block of keys(from q to t). Never have to learn new hotkeys, just new skills on familiar keys.
Probably an act of retarded genius to develop my hotkey setup around the attack move command^^
Have been happy ever since.

So yeah, I actually get a bit irritated if people refer to skills as q w e etc. as my setup is mirrored and to the side of those hotkeys.
I found it horrible to quickly use "q" or "w" for skills and then click "a" for attack move afterwards.
Then again, some people actually use the fucking numblock for inventory.

/random rant


I agree with you that it's very annoying when people refer to a spell by their hotkey and not by their name. This makes absolutely no sense to anyone who hasn't played the game – and makes every sentence into parodies of discussions between professionals at a hospital with all their technical terms. There is no need to make things complicated by changing the names of everything. The spells should be obvious from their names, and if not, the spell should be explained similar to how it is explained in the tooltip of the ability, not by using fancy technical terms and ways of shortening names. Damage per second instead of DPS, area of effect instead of AOE and so on.

my only time in LP, my computer crashed and it took just too long to start back up and get into the game so i played out a game w/ an abandon, and the very next game the game was OVER (they were hitting throne) and us 5 sat in our fount, they backed off and since we had raxed the lane they had pushed in, our creeps managed to fend off the lane for 5 minutes and i got an afk abandon (i walked away because you know, they were throning and i was in fount with 5 others). then low priority for 24 hours...

It's frequency of abandons and amount of people reporting you for them that decides when you go to low priority

It is horrible to put skills in QWER, especially R being the key so easily to misclick lol but then after awhile i get used to it, it is actually handy since i play many different heroes. Sometimes i still have the tendency to click ZXC for raze or C for curse of silence though -_- And i have to pause for 1 sec when i am on the lane with slardar to switch to legacy keys for him, RGT muscle memory too strong...

The only hotkey issue I have is with Rubick, for no reason whatsoever I misclick Telekinesis way too often when I want Fade Bolt. OTL

My internet has been wonky today, so just played a bot game, randomed Dark Seer, and OMG where has this hero been all my life. He's designed for maximum douchebaggery.
