Looking at something in isolation like "You can permanently shackle two heroes!" isn't how dota works. It's like how slardar can get enough attack speed to perma bash someone and it feels super oppressive once it happens but it being strong when it happens doesn't mean its strong overall.

NOP I dont have teammates just more enemies.

Point was more that shit being op at its best doesn't mean its op generally.

Team Secret literally has the legitimately funniest corporate twitter I have ever seen.

https://twitter.com/teamsecret/status/1282999118797963266?s=19

The parody of the new EG logo announcement was also hilarious, cant find it now. Apparently its run by midormeepo, that guy is great at what he does.

I thought the answer to this was Bernie but I try to expose myself to as little of US politics as possible

Anyone try the event game?

So the roguelike mode made me get into dota again after like 3 years of not playing at all. It's very good and fun, love it.

Wait there's a roguelike mode? Guess I have to reinstall :/

Iv always kind of wondered why dungeon crawlers never really caught on in the dota engine. Seems like it has all the tools to make a solid multiplayer DC.

I heard squareenix is remaking final fantasy: crystal chronicles (GameCube era multiplayer dungeon crawler). I'm actually pretty excited for that one.

Yeah, dude. There's even ascension levels, meta between-runs progression unlocks and a once a week challenge that will award marketable prices to top finishers. Really cool. It's 4 players and it's 100% free even without battlepass.

It's getting to the point where watching Kanye feels kind of voyeuristic. Like wer all just watching a person slowly losing their mind.

At the same time, he's not the first mega-star musician with highly questionable opinions so eh
