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.

dotabuff tells me that I end the game with bracers in my inventory about 1/4 as often as I end the game with dagons in my inventory

I end with a bracer 8x as often as all forms of dagon combined. #feederlife

Obviously this shows that bracer and wraithband should be able to build into a dagon.

it seems disingenuous to offer the same item for different prices.

I feel like I never build bracers unless I am going drums. But nowadays I rarely go drums as well. Probably my least bought item or something.

I'm bad at saving gold on supports for a bigger item when I could just grab a bracer or an urn and get back out there with some extra stats. When im at 5-700g a blink seems so far off (hero dependant ofc). I also over-buy wand compared to stick. Really I just like spending down to 50-100g whenever im in town (yeah i know its bad).

im currently learning java does that change anything

If you are already learning Java, just learn what OOP is, and do go the C# route. Broaden your knowledge with some Html/Css.

C# and Java are used for the same things. If you need to learn C# for a job that you want, you will be able to learn it quickly if you already know some other OOP language like Java.

Spending only unreliable gold during that critical early phase can help too. I mean, unless it's for necessary items.

That was a really hard habit to break and I still do it from time to time.

Yeah I just usually don't see her picked nearly as often as void and when she does get picked everyone tries to ignore where the player wants to lane her and shove her into the jungle.

I don't think I ever bother to go for a wand on supports. Just feels wasteful when I can turn that 350 into so many other things.

Also Urn is probably the best item in the game. You should always make sure to have one on the team.

You can make one in the strategy forums. You can also just talk about it here.

Wand is the "oh shit I'm going to die, I need to spend unreliable gold" item. Along with TP and smoke. You're always going to be able to buy the components, and especially on supports, it's never outright bad.

hmm, hadn't considered it that way. Probably will start putting it in quick buy a bit more now.

It's really good to have an item like that on quickbuy all the time. Saving unreliable gold can be huge. I also like having Drums on quickbuy for some carry heroes. I've mostly been working on my presence of mind, so that I can spend that unreliable fast in panic situations.

Nothing like going 13/0 and Zero as Visage after a game of Nyx Assasin that I carried but we still lost.
