Posts that relate to topics with their own thread, such as in News, Tournaments or Strategy should go in those threads.

I just wished the animation would be fixed. The cape part spazzing out is quite annoying (one of the reasons why I have not gone for him several times, it is just too distracting).

Anyone else notice drastic changes in the skill levels of their opponents/team since they reclassified the "high medium low" brackets?

for instance i have a game as rubick that used to be "high" and is now classified "low" and the quality of players i play against dropped dramatically too.

Probably because i have ~50 games played total though. But i was just wondering if anyone else noticed a sudden shift in the quality of games with matchmaking?

I feel like the games are high skill level when I play support and low level when I carry. Probably because when I support I roam and ward and whatnot and when I carry nobody does that :C

But I haven't noticed anything special since the patch, but I was playing with a very noobish friend with 20 game played and I expected the games to be very uneven

I haven't noticed a change at all, it seems completely cosmetic.

I've noticed by skill brackets have changed. It is actually quite annoying since I am playing against mostly scrubs. In the last ten matches, I have lost one. Sort of getting annoying since I did not have this problem before (previously, I was playing against people on par or better than I am...).

So yeah, now I have to slowly bring myself up in rank to get away from them.

Heh. Looks like it can be used multiple times, so he spammed it a bunch of times and each time increased his size.


No, it's because decay increases your size slightly in DotA2, that's what rubick is using, not the ulti.
You can even see all the decay buffs stacking up.
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!

you'll notice the pandas in dota do not have a death animation (they just stand there and fade out). This is due to the fact that pandas are considered representative of china and depicting pandas dying is essentially a form of screaming death to china. Usually you cant even depict pandas getting hurt at all, but because Dota isnt actually a game but rather a mod to an existing game (WC3), they get away with it a bit more than a lot of games, still you can see they made a conscious decision because the storm spirit model does have its own death animation but it was intentionally changed to not show a panda dying.
