Did the servers just crash? I just got disconnected from the game and then I couldn't reconnect. It just said "no Steam logon" or something.

Morgan Freeman announcer!

Gordon freeman announcer.

But honestly so many good characters from valve franchises that'd make for great announcers.
Like the TF 2 announcer.


nope, morgan freeman, i want to be playing dota with god telling me my ancient is under attack.

You missed the joke me thinks.
Gordon Freeman doesn't talk. At all. He's a silent protagonist.

From the Ghastly Eyrie I can see to the ends of the world, and from this vantage point I declare with utter certainty that this one is in the bag!

One of my friends once sent my Half Life obsessed friend a message saying "Did you hear, Gordon Freeman's voice actor died and they're cancelling HL3" without knowing Freeman was silent. Many laughs were had.

Had an interesting experience in game the other day, someone asked if I was "ReignSupreme from Adelaide?"
For a second I was like... do I answer? Am I being stalked?
Turns out it was someone from a seperate forum I used to frequent for years, serious stalker moment though.

these are the people who know what their talking about. not to say other people dont but this is the cream of the crop here imo. There are also a lot of people like me who post a great deal but have relatively limited skill/knowledge.

Yango would also be on that list but afaik yango has never played dota because knowledge bots cant actually play the game.
lol, I have literally played 40 games in the past 4 years. Before that several thousand but still, at the moment I really only watch Dota.

So like my mechanical knowledge is good, my knowledge of the scene is very good, but since I don't regularly play I'd say I'm a pretty mediocre player.


that list lol

Passive i sincerely think that you should add the people in that list and have a game or two with them (try to make a few duo stacks before you play with them 4/5 men stack), before you made a post like that (which is pretty much the cause of so many ugly posts from previous pages). I mean, really, do you really know everyone on TL that well? I don't think anyone dares to make a post like yours even the person played alot of games with tlers.

I am trying to be as neutral as possible here, for example, Andre is a very consistent player (on any role) that I would want to play with him anytime (i am just saying a name comes out of my head, there is also some differences between a NA/EU/SEA player), rather than playing with some people who are only willing to play in a game where the team gives them all the resources and provide the best backup they want (they would rage in a disadvantaged game so hard) and when you let them go support they all go rogue style/kuroky style support (because partly or usually they think that they are the better carry player so they are not happy that they are not carrying, which can be true at some cases, but the point is that they didn't realize that if they can actually played the heroes with low resources well then the game would have still won anyway). I don't even want to talk about how some people are skilled only with a very limited amount of hero pool.

It is rather irresponsible and ignorant to make a post like yours (and you still don't know the name of beesa's tl account and i think you missed quite some names from tl dota1 era...).

Wow, you took that list really seriously. Like super seriously. All the people he listed provide some pretty solid advice.

Yeah, people get super uppity when people start taking about relative skill levels. Personally, I know I am bad at Dota 2, so it works out. I am really only passable with Bristleback.

I'm sure there are a lot of people who, like me, are in very high and check this thread regularly but never take part in random strategy discussion. I'm sure there are a hundred of us (I know many people better than I who do so and as I said I'm very high).

It would be exceptionally difficult to make a legitimate list of highest skilled people without mmr regardless. Theoretical strategy discussion=/= skill.
Eagerly awaiting Techies.

And that is why no one listed you. Its not only about being good at the game, but also being willing to covey that information to people in the thread in a helpful, friendly manner. Being good at Dota 2 and being helpful to new players are not skills that go hand in hand.
