Does anyone know if Valve will be holding another Diretide-like event for this Halloween? I wasn't around for last years, and can't remember how long before Christmas they brought in The Greevling game.

Yeah is good for getting your farming paths right. But doesn't reflect a real game where you have to have map awareness. If you watch Burning play, he has near-perfect farming paths without getting picked off.

Is it too early to ask when the Free To Play documentary will finally be released?

Obviously you can't rely on playing against bots to lift you up to Burning's level, but it will get you to RTZ's level np.

I think so. It seemed complete to me, unless they had some tweaks to make.

Sometimes I go into a custom lobby and pick AM or Luna and just farm for 30 minutes, lol. It's actually great practice if you're like me and find it kind of fun


Even though people do whatever in 10 or 20, you will only get consistent lanes for 6 minutes (maybe less now in 6.79).

Perfect cs in 6 is 45, not including incoming wave.

If Valve were to bring the event back, not sure if I would do what i did last year. Anyone remember our (TL's) failed attempts to downing him the fastest? Staying up until early in the morning... twas brutal.

Edit: Just checked messages and realized Flamewheel was one of them.

That's actually decent. And then tell them to try and farm at least 100 cs in 20 minutes in a custom lobby. 100 at 20 isn't great, but at starting mmr levels you will be ownage.

Why do they have to own? I was admirative of the guy buying boots 1st on juggernaut at lvl 1, so much killing potential! I learnt I had to check the ennemy inventory right as I see them, riki taught me to buy detection,, axe battle hunger taught me to last hit, the fucking boss guy who killed his own creeps taught me deny exist, troll warlord taught me to kite as if he ever got in close range I was dead. I had really a lot of fun in bnet to gather every bit of knowledge back then.

Imo people wanting to jump straight into competitive dota are missing a lot of good moments. Some heroes are real gods, like lion, he does not need last hits to do tons of damage and has infinite mana. To me the hard carries were the like of kotl and sandking as they could flash farm really easily (bot 1st kotl into hex, skadi daedalus, I could never reach this level of farm with other heroes).

Sure once you had a decent level you would never jumped back into bnet games (garena), not even to rape faces as people would just leave the game.

I think if two new friends started playing the game together then just playing for fun and figuring things out as you go is an excellent way to learn the game. If one friend starts while the other is already in very high, then playing together and learning through expirimentation would not work as well and you would have to spend time actually teaching the new player dota as it's meant to be played.

So is there anything someone can do to a Tiny who tosses allies into the enemy on purpose ? We reported him, but he probably won't even get punished.
It's kinda annoying.
