IRC chatter should remain in IRC - http://webchat.quakenet.org/?channels=tl.dota2

Posts that relate to topics with their own thread, such as in News, Tournaments or Strategy should go in those threads.

tuskar was always one of the more favorite dota 1 heroes, despite him coming out in the later half

If someone dcs/afks the replay will sometimes get reclassified as normal. That might've been what happened. Another possibility is you haven't played many games on that account and you are riding the variance train.

Yeah, someone abandoned if I remember correctly, thanks. I was pretty confused, because I've got enough games under my belt I wouldn't expect such a huge change from one game.

Did anyone read Tusk's lore? It's pretty funny. No mention of CM though.

Complete sidenote - will TL ever offer flair or whatever for teams or heroes like they do for SC ?
(There's some overlap with teams but for instance Na'vi isn't an option)

Time of day can also have an effect on the level of your queue, as when there are a sparser number of players available, you may be matched a bit out of your skill bracket.

I should know, I played a game during lunch today and got matched with Merlini

Is blink not a viable option for Tuskar? It feels like it would be.

Didn't ever get to try him in Dota1 but he sounds a lot like Deadwood from HoN-one of my favorites =) .

depends on icewall interaction in dota2. sometimes in dota1 it wouldnt even damage the hero if the projectile didnt hit correctly

Obviously the best item for Tuskarr is Battlefury so you can Walrus Punch every creep wave to instantly farm everything.

Can even punch low HP creep to trigger the 4x crit.

It looks like Valve really likes the punch lines.

Just was trying him out on test client. CD is pretty low, but not low enough to do every wave

You'll have to settle for just every other one.

I was kidding, but it's 30 second CD on 1st rank, and a creep wave spawns exactly every 30 seconds.
