You still get an abandon if leave after you load. The game simply doesn't count as a win or a loss for either team until after FB/rosh/tower/5mins.
The only barrier to truth is the presumption that you already have it. It's through our pane (pain) we window (win though).

hmm i think they added some extra element into match making other than just elo. Recently when i try to snipe Sing_sing, i have the same setting as he does and he find a match in 2 mins while mine was 7-9 mins. My average wait time for having 3 severs + 3 game modes enabled is 5-6 mins while all sever wait time is 3+ mins ... This is around 5-9PM Eastern time which is generally rush hour for gaming. There must be something that attached to my account which make it harder to find people to play with? I am not in leaver queue ever btw.

Then you most likely are a different MMR to SingSing that has a lower available player pool

You are plain unlucky, or clearly not as skilled as you think you are.


I'm guessing the latter : |

An invite list for the international leaked over at joindota.... thoughts?

edit: A random link on joindota seems pretty dubious, I'm not saying this is legit or anything, but worth a look.

While the final list may look pretty similar to this, I wouldn't give it any legitimacy.
I liked Dota before it was Mainstream.

Edit - Managed to get back in other people couldn't pick, so one team had 4 players and the other 2. This a new bug?

considering i stream snipe him often and all the people im playing with get matched with him... not really. also this is not about stream sniping, its just my average search time is insanely higher than normal people and i have been enabling every sever everymode that i could play on otherwise i would have to wait 9-10 mins a game. I also notice that majority of the time my team has a stack or 2 in it, wondering if they see me solo queue too much so they have to find stack for me to play with? ~_~....

on another note: what is the best core item for SF after BKB? i tried dagger but i just died too fast and ultimate orb is just too lame... I also notice a lot of people skip the aura for stat for a bit more tanky? thought on that?

SF's items really depend on the other team composition. For example if they don't have a lot of small CC's and just have things like black hole, warlock ult, BM ult. BKB is not necessarily the best choice.

That being said, usually BKB -> Manta.

And some people level aura only once and then some stats to get more tanky, depends on the game again.

Pretty much expected. Just a bit confused to why they'd invite Duskbin. But I guess they want some pinoy representation.

because they want pinoy, but mineski has been doing terribly lately. also i think they may be underrated in the scene atm.

some of the chinese teams will probably go bingeing on dota2 just to get some noticeable results

One of the new builds for SF is:
Phase boots into drum into manta and build to deal sustained DPS trough auto attacks.

Works wonders for me, i get BKB either after manta or after i get another DPS item(and sometimes HotD if needed(plus it lets me stack ancients for bonus farm))


But yea, i haven't tested it too much yet, but works great for me.
From the Ghastly Eyrie I can see to the ends of the world, and from this vantage point I declare with utter certainty that this one is in the bag!

i think drum is just a bit too excessive on SF. Often in time i dont need those extra stat and with the price of drum, i could buy much better items. That being said, if YaphetS said drum is good, i cant really argue... Just not my style i guess

^ you can try the oldschool sf build :D i have mine saved up here:
http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/577828205241201249/43C2782368D1687FF3F8595532256F73FCA5B2B7/
i like to do sny if i see there are quite some burst damage in oppo team, otherwise just make yasha into manta. and then after satanic you can go divine.

dagger is best for positioning raze/ulti but i find that sf is no longer a top tier carry hero (he is fcking hard to play in high level game imo), mainly due to there are many other better carry options. and the nice thing you can do with dagger is that press ulti and then blink in, the small delay of the ulti casting anime allows you to do some nice move.
is 2017, stop being lame, fuck's sakes. 'Can't wait for the rise of the cakes and humanity's last stand tbqh.'
