The courier is now free but a team can not have more than one at a time nor can it be bought when a courier is dead. Random is no longer an option. •Anti Mage Movement speed decreased to 235. Blink no longer has a range limit. •Treant Protector Living Armor no longer heals but restores mana per second instead. | ||

Back in the real world I think random gold exists to incentivize people to play all the heroes, not just a limited number. Which ultimately is a good thing. Also Nightstalker mid would lose to QoP even if he had the random gold and she did not. She could come with a set of tangos and burn her money and she would still probably win against NS mid. -> NS mid isn't that strong(I know it sucks, I like him too) One of the stable of heroes that fall to the doom of being unlanable. /bad pun | ||

Won't be much different than any all-pick game anyway. People just pick whatever they like, whether or not it's better for the team. | ||

If you get a hero you always use, then good for you but for people like me who need an extra edge when playing a hero like, say, tree. I want that extra starting regen or sage's mask. | ||

It makes solo matchups so obnoxious for the person who didn't random tho. If someone can't be bothered to try new heroes that's their fault | ||

Playing as 5 stack vs pubs is no challenge, ergo you need to go team mm to enjoy dota. TMM begins new teams at an unreasonably high level so you will suffer a lot of hard stomps unless you are already quite good as a 5 man team. To have a chance at winning you will have to play you're very best all the time, leading to doing the same thing over and over and finally ladder anxiety a la sc2. Proof: Dota is never fun. | ||

I will Internet Fight anyone who takes away my Soul Ring Riki. Internet Fight is like when two drunk guys scream HOLD ME BACK BRO at each other, but without a bro to hold either of them back. Just cold, empty internet wires. And loneliness. | ||

If someone can't be bothered to try new heroes that's their fault I like playing solo matchups with repick vs random gold. If I can win with repick vs. random gold, then going back to normal gold matchups feels so easy. | ||

That's funny cuz TMM is actually really easy for people who queue at the top. The top rated TMM game is way easier than any page 1 game, so we queue tmm if we wanna have an easy screw around game. | ||

Prolly because if you queue so high up you should prolly be doing scrims instead at that point. | ||

Or you can just learn to chill about the game. Play CM/RD when you want to go tryhard mode, play AP/SD/AR when you want to screw around. TMM when you have a group of friends and want to give stack battles a go. It's not that tough to just enjoy the game. | ||
