EPTI hate being so bad in this game other than playing semi/hard carries. Anytime I gotta play support like that, I just get raped.

Also, there definitely seem to be some bugs with lane creeps not counting as units for the purpose of blocking neutral creep spawns. I've had situations where I pulled the Dire easy camp, the creeps in the camp die exactly at :59, and then the creeps respawn at :00 while the lane creeps are still in the spawn box. Similar thing happens with Radiant double pulls, where the ranged creep is fighting the double-pulled camp from inside the pull-able medium camp, and the medium camp spawns at :00 right on top of him. | ||

For the 22 second pull its easier to pull if you let them hit you once within aggro range. It increases the range of the aggro making it a for sure pull. Personally I like to pull by standing on the other side of trees and hugging them to get the pull. | ||

I felt the same way about that pull, the dire hard camp @ :22. But i might have been mistaken im not very good at pulling/stacking etc. Also I have seen camps spawn when there is lane creeps in it aswell, but it didn't really click to me as a bug. | ||

Yeah that's how I get the ranged creep to pull, but for some reason, the melees don't seem to give a fuck when they hit me. The ~24 second pull actually feels way easier to me because the to-lane distance is much shorter (which is what I assume you're talking about with hugging the trees, because you don't actually have to do that for the ~22 second pull), but you're already in an awkward place when you let the lane push out that far. | ||

I'm pulling the camp diagonal to the upper left, so cutting the tree doesn't make them go that way faster. To be clear, I'm talk about the ~22 second pull that goes diagonal to the top left, toward the front of the Scourge tower. That one feels difficult because the to-lane distance is long and it doesn't feel like the creeps always get close enough to the lane for me to aggro the creep wave. I'm NOT talking about the one where you pull the camp straight to the left at ~24 seconds (either by cutting the tree, or aggroing the creeps through them). That one's as easy as it always was because the to-lane distance is much shorter and the reduction in pull distance basically doesn't affect that pull. | ||

You don't have to, but I prefer to do it so that I'm closer to the lane to help out of needed. Also if the lanes pushed, generally I'm coming from that direction anyway. It is definitely hard now since you can't pull as early I would say. Seems almost impossible now without the aggro. | ||

Yes cutting the tree does make it easier since they run a longer distance IF you cut the "big" tree. I don't go by times, I always just go by where the creeps are on the map, once the wave is at the tower, you can pull it and depending on the creeps you might need to take a hit or two to get the wave attracted to the neutrals. | ||

When I go to the loadout screen of a character, I can only customize general items (announcer, courier etc) When I click 'show hero items' it says 'no hero items available yet'. It does this for every hero, even the ones I already have custom items equipped for! In the past it worked fine, I don't understand what happened | ||

The only thing I prolly wanna see change is someone replacing Fluff as the drafter. Being unorthodox is nice but he's overdoing it imo. He should draft like what the BW/SC2 players call "standard" and have trump cards here and there. | ||

He was playing some inhouse league or whatever and all he did was whine about his enemies and teammates. Although, who doesn't do that.. So no, no drama involved.  | ||

I gifted my other steam account dota2, but where can I find the config and autoexec? If I right click dota and select 'browse local files' it pops up the "common/dota 2 beta" and the config/autoexec inside belongs my main account. Which would have been great, except when I launch the game from my second account I get the default .cfg. Can anyone help me out? | ||
