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.

Eh, who is H4nni?

he was such a strong DotA player, then switched HoN.

he is played for MYM.


Played with him once but wasn't very impressed skill or attitude-wise.

to be honest, he was sooooo strong at DotA.i still remember one of his games with SF, that was just inspiring.

seems like he switched to DotA 2 with fnatic.HoN.

I'm not sure what you guys think, but in my opinion the prize pool for Dreamhack(200k sek = 22k euro or so) is surprisingly small.

Now, perhaps I'm spoiled with the LoL prize pools, but even so this just feels too small as with Tobi casting there should be a pretty significant following for the DotA 2 tournament.


Doesn't Riot provide most of the prize pool for LoL tournaments though
The ruminations are mine, let the world be yours.

Yeah, I was under this impression aswell (Riot spoonfeeding money to force e-sport scene? (I have minimum clue actually)).
What this means is sponsors aren't afraid to throw money into D2. All for a brighter future imo.

Does anyone have experience playing dota2 on a low quality computers? I'm currently out of my good computer for the next 3-4 weeks while I wait for my motherboard to come back from repair, so I'm on the one I had prior. It was considered average for the time when I got it in '05.

Pentium E5200 2.5GHz Dual Core
Some shitty motherboard from 2005
4GB DDR2 RAM
ATI Radeon 4850
1024x768

Pretty shit computer other than my video card. But my friend runs a 3670 and gets a solid 30 FPS most of the time at the same resolution. Just run it low res and you should be fine bro.

If there was a pro game with normal -cm style picking, except one was limited to Sentinel and the other team to Scourge, which side do you guys think would win?

pretty sure in dota1 its call normal mode (not AP) and you can pick heroes from respective side cavern + neutral cavern. Furion is on sentinel right?

in normal mode you start out with mor gold i believe

Icefrog rearranged the taverns to not have neutral taverns anymore.

Were the fun taverns ever actually part of the official DotA map? I thought they were included in specific fun versions or AI versions done by modders.

Hmm not very complete. If you talk about heroes picked consistently in Pro games then you definitely need to include Tide, SandK, VENO. and to a lesser extent even naix.

It's pretty silly to do a definitive list of "top picks" in DotA 2, given how different play in different regions prioritizes different heroes (e.g. in China/SEA, Earthshaker is must pick/ban when he's often get ignored elsewhere).

I agree. It is always interesting to see different strats and heroes used and seeing which one comes out tops. Only applies when you remove latency issues which is why I am looking forward to the International 2.

But still, good heroes are good heroes. No one would rate a BS over an Invoker.
