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.

You used to be able to get them all but there got to be so many that valve is now doing a bit of a "rotating" system. If you want an item that isn't available from the store you can trade for it (or purchase it using the Steam Market I believe).

The drops follow the rotating system as well afaik.

So i have a noob question about equipment sets and their availability... some heroes have multiple equipment sets (invoker for ex) but only 1 available to buy in full in the store. Do these sets cycle through the store, or do you have to just get lucky and find the other set items?


They cycle. Old sets stop being sold, and new sets come in every now and then. Most items are droppable though, and also tradeable with others, where the currency is either chest keys or other items you own.

When items gets really old, they stop dropping and turn "immortal". This hasn't happened to that many items yet.

If the game is well-received, they can always have tournament mode/map for it. We have too many examples of games are made with no competitive element in mind, and become successful later.

Like what?

I'm legitimately curious: can you name a single game that has a competitive mode which completely overhauls the basic mechanics of the game, replacing them with something completely different? I've never heard of such a thing occurring ever...

i like the sound of hero brawler genre more thats much better then arts or dota
Hero brawler sounds silly, and both that and Moba fit games like bloodline champion more than they do Dota. Dota is ultimately not about 'battles arenas' or 'heroes brawling', it's a siege game. You kill buildings, that's the point.

Anyway, Purge played some Hots apparently and yeah, this sounds a lot like 'not dota'.

Played about 5 games of heroes of the storm. It was pretty fun, no last hitting, global shared exp with each map mode (4 total) w objectives.

Tree based leveling like choice of damage or ability power, sometimes unique abilities. Like 12-15 playable characters. No items.

The game is very simple, but lots of team fights. Skills similar to LoL, but the tree system helps you specialize. The modes are fun.

I see no chance for a competitive scene with the current game, but its fun to play. I would play this game with friends.

the funny thing is that on wc3 aos games traditionally had buildings and creeps to distinguish it as an aos map, otherwise these maps were just considered hero arenas or something like that, like warlocks

Yeah that could have been funny if the other commentators could handle it. That was super awkward.

Conan is funny as fuck though.
