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.

IceFrog needs to change the meta honestly, and not make it so the games are always a one sided stomp.

We cannot have this again. What's the point if the exciting part of DotA 2 is gone from the game? Where are the comes backs? Or the near come backs? Comon IceFrog if Tobi said the GF was bland... you should pay attention.

I mean if you like Darude and the other two performers it shouldn't be lame, otherwise it will be lame.

Should be a ton of dota players around as well, since it's invite only it should be mostly players/personalities.

The moment Phoenix goes in he's going to be 1st pick/ban till they nerf him out of the meta entirely. Add to that he's an amazing 3/4/5 and can even play mid as well and you're looking at a beast of a hero for anyone who can play him.

Him and Kaolin are really going to spice up early game aggression.


I know Earth Spirit is close to being in Captains Mode. His voice for Pick and Ban were made (I saw it on the patch notes, some where I know I seen it).

IceFroggy needs to patch the game where the games can be more flexible again. Not a snooze fest but for god sakes not end in 20 minutes every game as a stomp one way or another. I'd much rather watch a few games of Naga then see 4 straight games of 20 minute stomps.

I mean did you watch TI or are you just bitching because the finals were crap?

There were plenty of comebacks. Like... more than any other fucking version that has been around. And they surprisingly weren't just exclusively from split pushing and holding off the enemy. They were from things like getting aggressive, spending money, teams getting punished for backing off too soon. Hell, LGD in game 1 against DK had a comeback from what was it, 30k down? You know why that happened? Because rather than being aggressive DK decided to back off and go back to farming.

This deathball nonsense is such crap. Seriously it's like most people don't even play the damn game.

Lol, I forgot about that post. Everything is hilarious in hindsight. Hell I thought Newbee weren't going to make the second phase and were going to be the 3rd/4th best Chinese team at TI. Shows how much I know.

I would have put Newbee in front of iG and DK actually. The only surprise to me was VG. That was the one team I didn't expect to make it that far.

Group Stages best of 1 is still just that. Newbee started winning and got hot when it mattered.

The level one cool down on his wards could use some work. Or make them not completely immune to magic so you don't need your carry right there to deal with them. But Icefrog will let us know how he would like the game to change. Through buffs of everything we are not currently using.

Everything.

Looking forward to ti5 Lina, KotL-PL, spiritbreaker, zeus meta

You know what spiritbreaker meta reminds me of 6.78 and the space-cow pub environment back then, no thanks

I would love to see zeus used more often. His role should change; as it stands now, he feels like a hero that originally had a goal in mind (burst damage) but that ended up not really happening. So now they sort of give him more utility but still needs more. I sort of would like to see him have his skills changed to be more support/utility over that of damage (since damage is more easily mitigated), The reveal on bolt was a good start.
