Why there is no game today?


You mean TI3? day off, have to set-up venue, give audience a break, fly casters over....

So disappointing that Valve hasn't invested in teleporters and getting players their before hand. It disgusting that we have to wait a full 24 hours when they could have had this set up......

fuck it, I can't do this.

Setting shit up takes time and effort and flying players in also takes time. I'm glad the teams are getting some down time to think up new stuff and look at replays, too. It will be good to see what they come up with for the second round of games.

Thank you, I really appreciate borderline bm answers. Though I agree one day of replay watching can bring good things.

For the Fantasy team, I have a few Alliance players. Am I understanding correctly that I should put them on my bench for wednesday and then I will be able to put them back on the team on Thursday when they play?

So in a pub, I picked Slardar against Lifestealer. Oh god, does he demolish Lifestealer (and I went the anti-Yango build of armlet after treads )


That LS must've been bad then.

He wasn't good...

BUT WHAT YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT -20 ARMOR STUNLOCK BABY

Buy AC and Shivas


AC and Basher

Plus Rage dispels Amplify Damage anyway.

Amplify damage works on magic immune units, so it can be reapplied easy. Cooldown on amplify is 10, rage has 17. At best you are free of amplify damage 10 seconds, but I wouldn't use rage for that.

Too bad slardar isn't played at high level often.

One day I'll work out how I've managed to reach 0-7 as lich, I don't think that should be possible even if you try.

Anyone else want to share embarrassing hero stats to make me feel better? =p

Im pretty embarrassed by my 5-15 lion.
and my 1-6 silencer.

all the heroes im 0 with are under 5 games played but having a 0-4 void is still pretty awful.

I have a pretty immaculate lycan score which will always be there because i refuse to play him after the wolves hp nerf lol.

This reminds me of a game I played with some "CHICAGO PROS" (self proclaimed).

http://dotabuff.com/matches/240821095

Notice the amount of last hits on Void. The team he was on didn't cut him to have me replace him (which is probably a good thing, considering their skill level)

Don't worry PA - you aren't the only terrible void player.

Lol I play with that SomeSortofNoob guy sometimes. He usually goes by Streetlight .

Oh and I am 1-7 with FV myself. I honestly feel like I never get any support when I play him though.

0-3 with Naga and Bane, but I don't really feel bad about that

Void's honestly not a great pub hero, so w/e.

I always insta-repick AM/Void/PL, not just because I don't like playing them, but also because I absolutely hate having a teammate play them.

Just need to queue as 3, pick am void and pl, and repick all of them.

Problem solved.

Repicking heroes puts them back into the pool.

For example if you random, repick and random again, it's possible to get the same hero twice.

Oh right, they did add this back a few months ago didn't they?

So after I started playing into very high bracket constantly like 10 days ago my winrate went up so much. Before this my winrate was barely over 50% and my winrate for the last 10 days is around 65% .

Makes no sense ... I thought the games would be much harder but they are not , still noticed the level of play is much higher and the lack of retarded players that were into every game in high and normal bracket.

I don't know about you, but PL and AM are two of the easiest heroes to win with.
And Void is just awful.

Its probably just a coincidence. There's no separation of high and very high players, they're all on the same gradual scale and you don't magically get a new higher skilled player pool to be matched with and against just because your games are placed in the very high bracket.

I don't know why you'd be ashamed about being poor at TA.

People have this impression that she's really easy from those few patches where she was sort of abusive, but beyond that, she's actually a highly technical hero and requires a good understanding of her to be successful with. There's not anything to be ashamed of at being bad at TA.

You got it backwards.

Repicking used to put a hero back into the pool. It doesn't anymore:

- Fixed being able to pick or random an already repicked hero.
