And to think it was only 2 months ago that it hit 150k with Diretide. Next stop 1/4 million and then Skyrim's steam record.

ta isnt even positive winrates anywhere on dotabuff man, hero is just right


Magnus and bat have < 50 win rates, they need buffs


Probably because pub teammates make them offlane so they can solo their pudge. I bet all solo offlane heroes have negative winrates.

Though that wouldn't explain TA

People start to man up and kill him after they realize refraction is not that big of deal. Moreover with the trap nerf, average TA tends to overextend themselves to kill the heroes, leading their own death. Personally I've never lost to a TA mid. Average TA players are easy to deal with, competitive TA is still strong and still first pick/ban material though.

Well consider that next week we'll be getting 6.77, the polycount cosmetics, the winter map, and the Frostivus game mode. The current peak will definitely be exceeded next week.

Wouldn't it be fitting if tuskarr came with the winter map (winter wyvern also, but he's still so new to dota1, I can't imagine it)? He's already work in progress, just saying. I'm also one of those (few?) who would rather see him than medusa released next, though I'm happy with any new hero.

The snakes in Shredder's update heavily imply Medusa though.

My thoughts on the next hero after noticing the snakes in the shredder picture:
I grow anxious to act.
From the Ghastly Eyrie I can see to the ends of the world, and from this vantage point I declare with utter certainty that this one is in the bag!

I got this too, first time. It said I was position 427, but only took 5ish seconds to log on.

I think the strain is showing a little as it screwed up my inventory and ability to add items to heroes....

I wonder if Valve have any plans to expand capacity in the next week. It's certainly not an issue right now at sub 1min queues (although I read that some people are now unable to find matches), but with kids getting off school for holidays and the big winter event releasing next week + 6.77 + polycount stuff there could be some actual complications.

I really hope they aren't using their full capacity atm and only stress testing to see how much they can handle, coz otherwise the launch will be supersad

Oh my god I love shredder so much. Such a man mode hero. Also, laned with a treant, with treant armor + extra levels in E you cannot get harassed out of lane and can just bully the fuck out of people. And jesus christ he is tanky in prolonged fights.

Hm, i think the exception is axe ulti? Because of how backtrack worked in DotA1? Or can you backtrack it in DotA2?

I think its impossible to backtrack culling blade because its a hardcoded kill command or something.

I think you can backtrack it in dota 2.

edit : I was given the impression it did seeing as how every void I try to hit does the Keanu reeves bullet dodge gif everytime
