Took me ages to scroll through the bullshit and find Dendi's reply, I don't understand how Reddit works.

Anyway starting a one-sided flamewar against Dendi because someone in his team (NotDendi) was trolling is outstanding.

The funny part is Dendi did nothing.

They're raging at him because the guy who did it was Dendi's friend or something.

Oh wait it was a joke, I'm stupid lolol

The whole mindblowing thing is that dendi didn't do anything. He tolerated that his duo-partner tp'd a guy on a ledge. This is enough to warrent a thread with 900+ comments of which half call dendi an idiot, flamer, rager etc.

Yes dendi didn't do anything but he should have intervened and stoped his friend(?). Like really? Dendi has to babysit his friends too?

It really blows my mind how people are getting upset over this instead of just reporting that guy dexter(?) and moving on.

loooool people getting upset because of this? Dendi used to be like 100x worse when he was abit younger, and Fear/Maelk/Hyhy/iceiceice/Demon/etc. (virtually every pro) has been tremendously bad mannered in pubs/IHLs all the time in dota 1. People really must have never played dota 1 if they are surprised by Dendi's behavior at all.

Well, technically it was a three person stack.

Dendi's reply covered pretty much every base of the accusations and the fact you can view his in-game perspective backs his story (he noticed the kotl being on the side of the map well after the wisp TP and pings on kotl, presumably asking wtf the kotl was doing).

About half the reddit thread is people whining about how BM various pros are. It's dota, if you want a non-BM game go play tic tac toe. Shit-talking happens in every in-person sport I can think of and is pretty accepted as long as certain lines aren't crossed.

It depends on what you're using to stream (platform/program) and your upload bandwidth. Streaming at HD isn't actually recommended by most as some potential viewers can't handle that bitrate.

The video encoding is reliant on the CPU (for the streaming platform). Dota's in-game graphics are usually not that much of a factor on the cpu aside from setting it to windowed and turning off vsync.

edit - here's the guide I used for setting up my stream - http://skyride.org/2012/11/the-complete-guide-to-streaming-dota-2-with-obs/
(someone posted a thread on TL about it). It isn't xsplit, it's a bit different but apparently uses fewer resources.

So I played Night Stalker for the first time, and he seems kind of imba. He can tower dive so easy that it's actually hilarious.

Damn, this doesn't really answer my question ): I know some of the graphic options on Dota 2 can be turned off due to their reliance on CPU, but I can't figure which.

I don't need help or tips about streaming and such.

if a NA picks up blademail and activates it + spiked carapace, how much damage does the enemy hero casting a spell on it receive? twice the damage?

Just glancing at the Advanced Options, I believe Specular is a CPU reliant feature. Shadows are definitely CPU reliant, Animate Portrait does and Fog arguably takes up a lot of CPU as well. Ambient Occlusion CAN.
