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.

Does anyone know if its possible to turn off the feature that mutes background noise from other programs when you join a dota game? it's pretty annoying when this happens while skyping.

There is somewhere. I just dont remember where to do it, but you have to do it in Windows as far I can remember.
Portal 2 uses the same "feature". Try something in your Windows sound konfig. Somewhere there should be a point under "communication" and options what your computer should do if you use VOIP or something like that.
Sorry, cant remember it exactly but try google if you dont find it yourself.

just starting Dota2. Any recommended sites or guides for all the new stuff from dota1?


Playdota.com is a good place to start, just check guides with good ratings (I'd say 8+/10).

Bans/picks question: is there a reason why Chinese tournaments require Sentinel always have first pick while international/Western tournaments can have either side potentially be first pick? Is there some difference of opinion on map balance that should be reconciled?

I think it's more of a case of different understanding of first pick advantage. I heard people saying second pick is better, and depending on bans it sometimes really is.

My guess would be that the firstpick advantage for radiant is supposed to balance out the map advantage the dire side has.

Maybe westerners consider both sides to be balanced enough to not warrent FP advantage? Only logical reason possible imo.

Hi guys, I'm looking for some DotA2 players to play with. I've been playing for quite a while ( I have over 200 games played ) and I'm decent with every role ( in my opinion, of course ). I play really often ( every day ) on US-E server and EU server. I can use Teamspeak, Mumble, Skype, ecc if you want.
I'll leave you my steam profile, if you want to play some games just add me .

Not all western tournaments go by that rule, but it definitely is fairer to give first pick to sent based on the rosh advantage alone.

Anyone else notice that Darer_Goblak let it slip that there will be 6 heroes released between StarLadder and the International and that 2 of them will be KotL and Visage? KotL I think people expected to be coming up, but not so much Visage.
Eagerly awaiting Techies.

If by balance I think it should be that sentinel gets to decide who has the first pick (which was once a rule somewhere in DotA 1 I think, not sure?)

Not really surprising given that content analysis has revealed a lot of materials for these heroes.

From my own experience I learned that versus templar assassin you either run away or die in 2 hits. LOL

Get a DoT, watch it burn off Refraction, kill her. Viper, Leshrac, Jakiro, QoP, Ogre, Doom, Radiance, whatever you want. Or pick a harder carry and pray that your team doesn't feed her.
