The difference is the people who are winning have the choice to participate and the people who are losing don't, it's forced on them. Oh god this sounds like abortion debate. Ok I have said my part. Topic over for me. | ||

You're not forced to participate in the fountain diving. You shouldn't need to be protected from your own feelings. | ||

Seems pretty balanced to me, without any kind of numbers attached to it. The difference is that the people who like it are mostly people who've played the game forever and probably wouldn't quit over it being changed, while the people who dislike it are mostly newer players who conceivably might. | ||

I think the best option would be to let some choose to no re-spawn if they have been killed in fountain a couple of times. The only reason you would ever use that is if the other team was just drawing out the game like cats playing with their food. When they run out of toys, they will move on and go for throne. I can see if you get like 3 deaths within 30 seconds of respawn giving you the option to not spawn. | ||

I think that was just for leavers. Either way, the Dota 1 fountain is much harder to dive as you can hide further inside and actually situate yourself behind the well iirc. | ||

I've also seen my friend try it with a really fed LC with so many duel bonuses and an aegis in tow walk in and try to smash it back a few months ago when we used to play DotA 1 at a nearby LAN cafe after work every Friday. I don't think he got much damage in on the fountain though. EDIT: Isn't it killable anymore? Did I misremember the whole LC thing then? | ||

I mean, it took quite a lot, but you -could- yes you can. one of the easiest ways was to frostbite it for 10 secs. with proper ghost sceptering and teamwork, you could kill the fountain but i dont know if it's been patched | ||
