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

People in this game are intense. My 2nd day of playing dota, going through training and learning the characters in the Limited Heroes selection game mode and people take it quite seriously :O of course I've seen some fairly high level accounts playing in it which is prob why. I think I'm doing pretty well so far! Watching some dota tournaments has helped. Can't say the same for some of my teammates/opponents though ;x I've already seen some people legitimately suck then get reported for intentional feeding. It's cutthroat but I love it :D

glad you have a thick skin to hang in with the community! The game got really fun when I found some friends to play with and started not giving a shit what pubs say lol

I've seen pubs qqing and telling people to play practice mode... In co-op vs hard bots.
Once is an accident. Twice is coincidence. Three times is an enemy action. Bus Driver can never target themselves I'm sorry

What's the best IHL to start out with? 2000 hours played in Dota 2 and more in Wc3 so I am not awful at the same time I'm not great, full game knowledge though. I know of IXDL-O but I heard that has pretty much died off. Is the TLIH any good?


in order of skill its tlih<ixdl-o<ixdl-i but tlih and ixdl o are both extremely random when it comes to skill. If you do well for a while in ixdl-o you can get into -i pretty easily, and if you're not bad you can stay there and thats about the highest skill you're going to get on NA servers since thats where a lot of na pros play in their free time.

I for one, whenever I see someone saying 'you should get x on y', automatically think of them as bad.


i was once flamed for making a chaser build Jugg (PMS->Phase->Drum->Diffu->Yasha->SnY)

I've never tried it personally but I can see it working.

MoM should allow you to land more hits during Omnislash and I guess you can move faster while spinning as well, so you're going to be immune to early game damage for most of the duration and once your immunity runs out everything is dead anyway.

Definitely going MoM Jugg next time I play him actually.

And yeah I love when people fountain farm bots. Haven't seen anyone all chat bm bots yet though, still waiting for that.

i don't its significantly more serious than regular pubs. people play co op games for two reasons: to stomp computers for whatever reason, and to practice because they are nervous about going into matchmaking without being good enough.

Your a disgrace to this community! From now on all your opinions shall be ignored because you lost to bots!

Joking btw.

Personally i've never lost to Bots,and dont plan to start either. The only times i play Bot is to train a specific hero or playing with some noob friends

That's cause they live right next door to dota2 which has been happy and shiny recently. When you live in the slums and have a metropolis right next door I think that'd easily grow some discontent.

Actually how long the International can continue?
I mean Valve can't do it forever.

If the international is gone, what can replace it?

Why can't they do it forever, or at least for the natural life cycle of the game? It's a tremendous marketing tool, and it's possible (per Lo3) that the most recent one might actually have been profitable.
