how do you guys draft in captains mode/draft with randoms? it seems like if i listen to team we get a terrible team and if i pick a good well balanced team, they dont know how to play heros and we lose anyway

If they are heroes that are hard to play, ask if anyone can play the hero before you pick it. Otherwise just pick a good team and have everyone pick heroes after. If someone asks for a hero then only get it if it makes sense in the lineup.

its bad, vsync makes it so you don't have screen tearing but it causes input and video delay as it syncs up your frame updates with your monitors hertz.

Just turn it off.

Thanks I'll try to play a game with it off and see if it makes a difference. I haven't seen anything bad when I had it on, so hmmm..

My PC is pretty good though, including my monitor...

Wow really... I wonder if I'll see a big difference when I try with it off now..

How about anti-aliasing? Or anything in the advanced tab in video settings?

Vsync is generally useful if you have issues with frame rate drop. It will help give you a more stable frame rate. If you have a very strong PC, then vsync isn't that useful.

Depends on level of play, but to me the most important thing (aside from obvious shit like not picking a hard hero without checking anyone can play him) is going SIMPLE line ups that are OBVIOUS.

The most extreme "bad" individual hero (despite actually being objectively strong) is probably Furion. His very versatility is what makes him a god damn nightmare to have on a team of strangers - you want heroes that speak for themselves, that people can (hopefully) rely on to act in certain ways, and Furion is the opposite of that.

there are 2 ways. 1 is to secure easy, effective hero. Traditionally Lich Tide Kotl are pretty good secured pick for support, Mid would be qop, mag, od. Long lane is clock BH.

The second way is force them to pick their own role/hero. Just ask them what they wana play and if their is conflict, let them fight between themselves and who ever confirm first win. Generally this is a shitty way to go but if you are at decent MMR, things could work out.

As it turns out Legion Commander is the hardest counter to Brood in existence.

not really, like yeah overwhelming odds kills an army of spiderlings ez-pz, but so do most other nukes.

Brood's still a really insane duelist because of incapacitating bite and her ult, she can definitely kill Lc


The fact of that matter is that Brood's still in a really awkward situation power wise, but better than before

The problem with brood is she runs off the map at max move speed and is untouchable. Killing spiderlings is nice but the duel lockdown is what owns brood or (am/weaver/qop/puck/storm). Get blink and some levels and it's an extremely effective way of ganking these heroes. It's Bane's Grip on a 50sec cd.

What is the general consensus of new brood at this stage? I regularly see brood destroy pubs, even front page stacks. Is running off the map a bug or will it be fixed?

Duel gives you truestrike. It goes straight through windrun/incapacitating bite and the like.
