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. | ||

But the reason for this isn't because everything's balanced, it's because everything is changed every two weeks, so obviously the picks will change often and everything will seem viable. I much prefer IceFrog's way of doing things, he allows players to figure out what to do, or the meta changes so a hero falls out of style. And yet, a lot of different heroes are picked in DotA, they work in certain lineups and strategies, almost all of them, it's just that some are a lot better for the current meta. actually i'd say there isn't a single hero in dota that doesn't have a lineup that works well for them and that they couldn't easily be replaced by another and have the lineup work the same. Unlike lol who have a ton of redundant characters. it's cool that way. | ||

Well, spirit breaker. but when he's strong enough to be used competitively he DOES get nerfed because he's too strong in pubs. | ||

Solo queue gets boring at times and I'd love to play with others when my friends aren't on, but at the same time I don't want to annoy others if I play way worse than them. Everything from newcomers to high tier players, but the activity of the channel isnt what it used to be. There used to be inhouses going on almost constantly, in addition to mm groups being formed / general talk. | ||

I tend to go phase>drums>blink>aghs and then an AC if I am farmed enough lategame but I dunno if thats the correct decision, it gives more attack speed and tankiness but I don;t think the aura affects the brewlings. Thoughts? + Show Spoiler + On another note, last game we were stomping, enemy riki kept complaining about "bs hooks" from our pudge and the fact that we had a gondor and 2 gems. Apparently he was whining in team chat a lot as well about laning setup and stuff. Towards the end of the game, I started shit-talking him back even using phrases like "get dumpstered riki" and "riki king of butt-ravaged." This coming from an extremely mild mannered guy who always thought the MOBA community to be full of terrible flamers. I am becoming what I hated and feared D: | ||
