Pulling on mid is a huge deal due to it's volatile nature. Dire should be given equal chance, but most likely it means changing the behavior of creeps or the terrain. I think it's because although you can pull it, you can't really farm it. If you pull the small and big camp, the dude that does the pulling can get some farm and level, but if you pull the ancient, the effect is gonna be the same (the creep wave got pulled), but you just can't get any farm.
What? That makes no sense.

Denying the Dire mid exp makes a huge difference. A level advantage tends to be a huge advantage middle, especially around level 6 and 7. Gold from it is just icing on the cake.

I know that. I mean that pulling ancient to deny and pulling small/hard camp to deny serve the same purpose, which is to deny creeps. That's why it makes more sense to pull other camps and not the ancient because you at least get some gold/xp.

In time mate, in time. You will do bad and then go on a winning streak followed by potential losing streak. Such is the fate of dota 2. Hopefully upon full release, it might get more players and hopefully (although not guaranteed) the MMR will have a softer touch.

Hah so played a few games after a long hiatus. It seems I cannot do well unless I play enchantress. Granted she is one of my best performers of times past but I was hoping to retain more knowledge than just sproinking bitches to death.
Still though, I love that deer lady. Reminds me why this game is totally awesome 
|
Welp, cent is pretty good, i just had my first game with him (random no hate pls) and he rapes. His attack animation is so good, i missed last hits
|
I still hate on randoms. 800 gold is worse than 600 gold with a good hero. Fuck you erasme.
|
thats not what i meant.. 
|
I still hate on non-randomers. "Bad" heroes are more fun to play.
Viva La AR!!!
|
Random draft is where it's at
If they ever have a ladder MM it should be RD

What about all the people who random a 5th carry for the team, and say it's not their fault their pick sucks because they randomed?
|
Random'ing is fine unless it screws over the team. For example, I often make sure I am first or second to pick (by random) so not to get a five man carry team. Also, if I random and the hero will obviously screw over the team, I will simply repick and choose a more reasonable hero (even at the expense of the gold).

I swear people only random good heroes, everytime I see someone insta random TA...
And if you're queuing with friends you can just have most of the team random and then swap heroes around and even if someone gets a shit hero he can just change it and deal with the little gold he loses, someone else can buy him Tangos.
You start with 853 gold.
You choose a hero you lose 250 gold and end up with 603 gold.
You random a hero you keep 853 gold.
You change your hero, you end up with 503 gold.
So if you have three people randoming and you get one decent hero and change two others you still have more gold in the team even with the penalty than you would with normal picks.
And Cent imba, so much fun to play though.
Although I mostly play random draft when solo queuing now, friends insist on all pick though.
