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.

Holy shit landing those Meepo nets is the hardest thing I've done in a while.

Landing the nets isn't the hard part for me... It's the poofing at the right time and place.

And I'm so noob that I just leave one meepo at home to poof for safety.

Well, I just started practicing Meepo today. I still have to win a game ( played around 4 ), but I think I have the basics down and I just need to find a decent team with good picks ( each game was ruined by someone last picking a carry or the enemy team counterpicking me with ES, OD, etc ).
I can poof really fast and I have a pretty good blink dagger combo but I always miss the net T_T.

Thanks, though the dimensions still aren't for my 1920 x 1080 setup

EDIT: oh here's his old version of it: [image loading]

For those of you who are bored, the weekly patch anticipation thread is up on dev forum http://dev.dota2.com/showthread.php?t=102102&page=18. Read with care.

Im quite surprised how little sneak peak contents we got from Valve after teams visiting them this TI. I guess its partly because teams played group stage at the hotel this time but clearly we didnt see a lot of new art work did we?

Hey guys, can I just say that I FUCKING LOVE DOTA 2 now. I was just about to give up on it because PUGS in the other game modes were so terrible, but then I thought "fuck it, I'm going to try captains mode". Although I've always been picked as captain so far (I have no idea who to pick an ban yet) EVERYONE i have played with for the past 4-5 games have been so nice and patient with my learning, that it's amazing. Maybe I'm just lucky, because I hear MOBA games have the worst communities all the time, and that was the one thing that held me back from liking it to loving it, but holy shit Captains Mode easily makes DOTA 2 one of my favorite games of all time! :D It's the only Game Mode I play now!

Although I get frustrated when i'm trying to play a support and people force me to go mid. T_T

Does anyone have spare plushies from TI3? I'm looking to buy Tidehunter, Earthshaker, Warlock, Ursa, Enigma, Dolfrat, Furion. PM me if you're interested in selling. Or add me on steam: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198025210997

Kind of fascinating watching a HoN team (aL) who's supposedly all switching play TMM for the first time. Have never drafted before. Most haven't played more than like 50-100 games.

Just played against an AM who went double Battlefury.

Not sure if next level split push pro or trolling.

I'm not sure if there's a way to snowball harder after getting your first battlefury and finding yourself massievely ahead, than to get a second one. You will at that point be able to farm faster than the 5 enemy heroes combined
