Denying friendly heroes? Yes please. I just imagine lots of incidental rage when sleeping an enemy, and a teammate hitting him and getting sleeped himself =/

tbh, no... Bane looks like void modified and he isnt as unique as his original design... Im curious on why did they decided to remade his model, the previous one looks scary+ unique and suit the hero more.

Well, DotA 1 was the only AoS that I never really touched, so I don't know his original design.

So *shrug*

i honestly need a break from dota 2, the mm is too terrible, 1 game you get vs pro/top tier well known players and have a good game, the next you get people with 25 wins who pick carries and get 25 cs.. I don't know how I keep getting matched up with people at the start of the week i was nearly games over .500 which is by no means pro but decent it seems as a mostly solo or duo queuer. I shouldn't be getting these retards on my team, it's ruining any enjoyment I get from playing dota right now.

I know this sounds like some elitist whine, but I know my place, I'm nowhere near top level player but the MM in the last week or so has been absolutely atrocious. I can't enjoy playing like this anymore.

i think the MMR change might be different from sever to sever. I notice my game quality went bad when ever i have EU people in my game which mean that my MMR on US East is much much lower than US West....

I also hope they separate EU sever from russian sever so if i gota play games on EU from North America the MM system wont place me in a russian sever and DC me 20 mins into the game and i cant reconnect ~_~

Instead of whining about match quality you guys should play in the numerous inhouse leagues such as NADL. Also I never get shitty people when playing normal matchmaking but games take 10+ minutes to find.

I'm probably averaging like 2 minute queues when its prime time, afternoon/evening on weekends. And 3:30-4:00 queue's during more dead times. It's not bad for me at least.

hmmm... gona try it out actually... i have tried TLIH but it has a big skill gap so i just gave up...

also about how long u search: the longer u search the more expanded ur rating is. This means that it could included people who are really high above you if ur low and people who are really far below u if ur high... I often reset my search after 2-3 mins bc i rather wait 20 mins for a good game with decent skill level than a terrible game with a huge skill gap.

edit: wow wtf... its so complicated to register for this league ~_~........too lazy, sleep for now =_=

I am also confused about the bane model change. The original model probably wasn't perfect but at least the face didn't look copied off of faceless void.

I'm assuming first game was USW, with second one being USE. There seems to be quite the correlation between ping advantage and success. I hope the finals won't be AL vs NaVi, especially if the winning team only wins on their own servers - there are simply going to be too many "what if's". For anyone who followed BLC, where ping mattered even more, it was hard to determine anything but best US team, and best EU team through online tourneys.
