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

true but in dota2lounge's case, they have to consider it as bo2 since its very hard to explain it to the users and how to properly react or have some protocol regarding 'each team plays another team twice'

Is it really that complicated to just list two matches, with teams on diferent sides? Maybe it's weird to have two matches with the same teams, but it makes so much more sense to me.

It would be really bad if the odds were uneven over 2 games thou, and if they were separate bets in the dotalounge system they are bound to have different odds.

Honestly, if you think about it, the format essentially boils down to the SF 1v1.

Player A picks 2 heroes he knows player B can't play.
Player B picks 2 heroes he knows player A can't play.

Unless one player totally misjudges/doesn't know which heroes somebody plays (which is entirely preparation/research and not fundamental skill), they will always crush the game with their comfort hero respectively and go 1-1, meaning it should always go to the game 3 SF 1v1.

You're thinking in absolutes too much.

From what I've seen picking ur fav hero hasn't been auto-win so far. These are pros they won't be that much different in 1vs1, not enough factors.

Especially for heroes like Fata's puck or S4's mag.

No, no! Terrible mistakes have been made. I forgot to change some of my compendium predictions in time, but worst of all, one of my Fantasy team league slots is EMPTY. What have I done!? Let's hope I can blame it on the compendium being buggy, but I'm pretty sure it's just me being supertired after solomatches yesterday doing some "final adjustements" now my team is shit

Well, HYPE for TI3 groupstage! GOGO bring good games :D
I'm out of quotes atm :/

Generally when is the best time in your build order to build magic wand?
I thought it was after you buy reg. boots, but I feel its better right after you finish your boots

totally dependend. if u play tri vs tri an early stick/wand is really good, for a solo mid or 1v1 lane its not rly important to have it quick (of course exceptions)

Depends on the heroes in the lane, how good Stick is against them and how smooth your farm is.

Probably depends on whether or not opponents have boots already?

Are pennants bugged in DotA 2 right now? My view count hasn't raised nor do I see the amount of representatives each time has. Do we still get the item drops from it?

Does anyone know if it's possible to cap the FPS in DotA2 menus but keep the one in the game?

This could've maybe been better at simple questions thread but I didn't feel so.


I once managed to get good CM stack with little better players than myself, that was the time when I understood I don't know shit about offlaning or trilaning objects.

I've been playing dota for a while now. Around 850 games and I'm extremely bad compared to what I could've acheived in sc2 with same amount of time. Relatively.
Improving in dota is so much harder - I don't have consistent team and I have only 2 equally skilled friends - others are just horrible. I'm little bit lost how can I improve in most efficient way? Solo/duo que pubstomp AP until I get decent games? Or same thing with CM?

I looked up joindotas teamthreads but I'm far from meeting requirements for those teams.

Are you getting lag when in dota menus or something? I had that problem on my laptop.

Disabling the animation in the background fixes it.

Hey guys what's the best way to get player cards besides playing games. I am thinking about buying a few so I can get my crab mount. Also, once TI3 is over will they stop dropping?
