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.

I wrote that sentence referring to multiple of them at first and then changed the sentence without changing it to singular from plural, and posted it without thinking

If you need to practice a specific hero to shake the rust off, just load up a custom game and lane alone for 10 minutes to see how many last hits you can get. If you want to do it under pressure, just set the bots to hard and last his(warning, bot allies are retarted, so the agression will be strong).

At he end of the day, snow man is right and you should just play against people of your level. But you can play solo to get reacquainted with the hero you want to play.


this is helpful if you're trying to learn or improve mechanics with certain heroes as well. nothing is as good as playing against people of your level, but getting used to your hotkeys and attack animations for last hitting can be done without going into matchmaking. actual game experience with a hero can only be earned playing against actual humans, though.

Funfact, octopi are the most intelligent invertebrate animal and are most closely related to snails and various bivalves.

I was thinking about the 10,000 points for correctly predicting the top 6 teams in order at TI thingy in the compendium.

Statistically speaking about one person should get that right lol.

Funner Fact: I've caught an octopus while fishing before (u have to be really careful when bringing them in or they will latch on to the side of ur boat and ur hosed)

They can open child-proof jars and other tricks such as finding their way through mazes.
There really isn't a lot of competition among the invertebrates tbh though

Even spiders are more instinct than intelligence, but the octopi and other cephalopods can learn and solve problems.

Plus they can remember who people are and get excited when their "favorite" care takers come to feed them. Octopi are pretty awsome across the board.

BTW, i'm not sure why mods would want to close this thread.

This is the best model of E-Social anarchy we have here on Teamliquid. Invaluable study material for Modistry.

Modistry doesn't sound like the right word, based on the closest one I could think of (Dentistry). Dentistry is the act of taking care of the Teeth (root Dent). So modistry would be the act of taking care of the mods.

2/3rd of their 'brain' are in their arms.
Their individual arms essentially think for themselves(They obviously also communicate with eachother)

There has been cases of severed octopi arms holding on to prey and trying to feed it to the non-existant mouth.


Also you could probably write multiple sociological papers about the patterns in this thread.
Not sure any of those papers would say anything positive about the thread, but that's something entirely different.

That's only under the assumption that every team is equally good

when that is not the case the odds get a lot better
When in doubt, just believe in yourself and press buttons
