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.

Valve could really release new hero chests, last one was like 8 months ago...

well the hero chests you can open with normal keys that everyone already has,or can get cheaper on the market.
When they release a new chest series they release new keys as well,that can only open those boxes.So i guess it's more profit for them.

Don't forget the bear! Root gaming for life.

Bear is like one of the least luck-intensive heroes in the game, if Admiral Bulldog's unreal potency with it is anything to go on. Skill is the antithesis of luck, and if one person can take a hero so much farther than everyone else, there must be a hell of a lot of skill compared to the luck involved in that hero.

Dude,

Sometimes this hero is all about luck (mainly in lane).

Trust me on that.

He's Icefrog's automated database that he uses to assist him with balancing the game.

Here's an picture estimated to resemble Yango:

If you are referring to the next balance patch aka "version" (likely 6.79) the answer is no. Especially since IceFrog traditionally adds new hero(es) in "X.X9" patches, which means that he has to do that not just make balance changes.

People expect/are hoping soon since TI3 was recently and they figure IceFrog should have got some ideas from that, but nobody really knows.

the old hero chests aren't worth opening because they give shitty items unless you really want stranges which you could purchase for cheaper than $2 probably
the old chests actually gave uncommon items i think, whereas the new chests only give rare and above

You mean sometimes RNG tricks you into thinking its possible for that hero to lose lane?

Just solo vs trilanes.

I know, it shocks me too when I can't get three roots on three heroes in three hits and they somehow kill me.

Luck can help, but it would take luck whose probability would cause an overflow error in a 64bit system to match the skill of Admiral Bulldog.

On a completely different note I have been enjoying Luminous+Godz a lot on BTS, while the analysis and whatever may not be great their humor and random banter is the best.

I feel the exact opposite, they've really fallen off post-TI imo (obviously GoDz didn't cast@TI3 but even so). They sound really drained and un-enthusiastic to me

1) Get first root
2) Put a skill point into summon bear so RNG resets. Proceed to root again.
3) Resummon bear for final KO root.

Easy.

Yeah, I know about that trick.

But when you are 0/20 in roots anyways...
