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.

Puck is unplayable without legacy.

... I may or may not be slightly biased.



I'm mass pucking with qwer, and it's totally fine.

however, I would say it's only fine if you're not massively used to any other hotkeys.
I've gotten used to the qwer region of the keyboard thanks to SC2.

it was strange in the beginning after switching from BW, but after a very short while you're fine with it, and I actually prefer it now.

My Hand Begins to hurt after ~15 seconds of doing this on my work-keyboard... And my Keyboard at home is even smaller...
Is my Hand just too big?

12345.. Reaching 6 comfortably gets hard but 5 is ok for stuff you only use occasionally (drums, pipe...) :p
QWER
My pinky is just for shift...

But i in General have a weird Setup...
Monitor "normal" ahead of me.
Notebook/Keyboard/Second screen diagnoally to the left of me... So :D.

It seems very awkward if you want to shift queue/hotkey stuff or just stop animations.

What's the advantage of legacy keys for invoker? Every invoked spell has it's own key right? Don't see how that is an advantage, it's more keys to press and they take the place of keys that can be used for inventory slots (that's how i use ZXCVGT at least)

Legacy players will know and literally know the better side of playing legacy Invoker.
Whether it has ended with a happy ending or sad, I never was an important thing to you.

Are the servers still bad? 4 hours or so ago every other game became unplayable with dc's and game wide lag. Am I cursed or do the servers seem to be down at superior moba quality atm?

Without legacy your your spells go on D and F and switch position depending on which way you invoke them. With legacy, my sunstrike is always on T, my meteor is always on D, my alacrity is always in Z, etc etc.

Well naturally you'd have to get used to the latest invoked spell always being D, but it's pretty intuitive after a while. If legacy keys work fine for you I guess there's not much of a reason to bother swithing though.

I know its fun gibbering over nonsense but whatever key settings you use doesnt really matter, timeing of your spells is in 99% of the cases more important in dota then throwing them asap over and over again as you do in superior versions of the moba genre. Am I wrong?

When i first started playing dota1 years ago, i only played with mouse and moved my camera with arrow keys. No keybinds, only action i did on my keyboard was move the camera.
