What's the X-ping supposed to mean anyway? Something like 'be careful'?

Yeah, generally something like 'don't go here' or 'I saw someone there'.


Oh, i never associated any special meaning to it, but I use it for its convenience cause unlike regular ping it shows up on the playing field as well as the minimap. Thus you can mark spots more precisely.

Regular ping does show up on minimap and playing field?


Doesn't it only show up if you ping on a hero or building or something, but not when you ping the ground? Anyway I like X to show things like "put ward here", or "wait there", etc. for mates i'm playing with.

reddit is doing another witch hunt against sayuri for being the manager of lgd.int and then turning out she's not the manager and gods is full of shit. they're whole argument is "nu-uh, he's lying and he didn't write that!" jesus, how afraid of girls are they.

already hated godz's casting, now I have more reason.

Oh yeah i forgot about tree totally since it became mainstream.

Don't get the Mangix one, i'm not into LoL champions that much. Can you draw me a graph explaining this?

Oh lol. Totally forgot about the grahps. They were the treasure of this thread for a while.

Didnt she post on reddit in the first thread, confirming her manager position personally?

Do you even know the story?

It's not "another" witch hunt against sayuri, she should be out of this community in the first place for stealing from sick kids. People are just mad that she actually has the gall to still be involved in DOTA2.

rofl okay, cause calling her a "dick-sucking whore" is any way related to stealing from child's play.

Well that's another thing, internet dwellers love to overexaggerate a lot and young people unnecessarily swear a lot because they think it makes them more mature.

Some internet dwellers also frown upon those who swear a lot and make pseudo-scientific statements with no real information to make them seem more mature.

In reality, some cultures swear a lot, regardless of age or 'maturity'. And especially on the internet it's hard to convey tone properly and swearing makes it very easy. It's additionally a linguistic crutch and many people on the internet are bad at English. It's just 'easier' to call someone a dick sucking whore than it is to explain why they are a bad influence on the scene. And the first vents a lot more frustration you might have about the topic than the latter.

Actually i don't frown upon that, i just tell what my RL experience is, the older i got the less people were swearing. Dunno, maybe it's just that the people at older ages are swearing the same amount, just not in the environment i'm in.
It's also not like i don't hear swearing at all, just most of the time it's when someone is joking.

Also posting on the internet is not really the best way to vent frustration compared to alternatives :/

BTW where did you get the idea that my post was supposed to be scientific/pseudo-scientific instead of just my opinion?

"and young people unnecessarily swear a lot because they think it makes them more mature."
This isn't portrayed as an opinion at all, it's portrayed as a fact.

Edit: Where i'm from in denmark swearing is common, nothing rude or weird about. Young and old both swear a lot.
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!

Well yeah i guess i did not use the proper wording. I still think the situations where grown ups swear are way different (and seem more justified) than when the young people swear. Maybe it's just me then

So changing subject a bit - i'm watching Funn1k right now and he is playing timbersaw, i thought that the hero got really popular and is really strong nowadays, it's amazing how some things in the "metagame" change slowly but steadily until certain hero/trend is super popular and sometimes even dominant (like it's evolution not revolution, seems so different from SC:BW metagame to me).

6.78 buffs on timbersaw really helped a lot. He was good before, now he's better.

If icefrog continues the 6.79 trend, it will probably released at December.

New patch can't come soon enough. OD has defined the version in a very boring way, in my opinion. Things were better when Magnus was the dominant mid (outside of Batrider). Having OD as the dominant mid means the position is almost always occupied by a low-rotation hero, because even when neither OD, his counters, or Dragon Knight are assigned to the position, people have already been picking heroes within the context of farming mids being used. Hopefully next patch nerfs OD and buffs some other hero to dominate the position. Maybe Zeus or Invoker, if we're lucky.

OD is good right now, but not IMBA IMBA IMBA.
The meta-game never seems to stop evolving, so I'm not worried about the state of balance right now

I myself am happy that magnus hasnt that dominant place in the meta game anymore.
Can't tell how many won games me and my friends threw away because we got stupidly caught by an RP.
OD itself is very boring though yes, makes playing mid lane unbearable.
