The Bambi rule still applies.

Edit: For an event or in general? You need to be level 30 to play ranked, so all your shit on heroes you care about is unlocked. And if you don't know a hero, its takes like 2-3 bot/not ranked games to unlock all of it. And really, does anyone want someone in ranked play with a hero they have never used before?

Edit 2: Shit I did not know that. I want to get to level 25 now.

I don't want to play the online matchmaking ranked, I'm talking about private custom draft lobbies to play tournaments. I was curious if the official TL dota IRC team could play in the HOTS community tournament but I imagine that will be impossible because:

1) skills will be gated and we aren't going to grind all the heroes to get proper skills
2) we could likely only draft the heroes that are free this week

I was wondering if the rules around skill gating/hero accessibility changed at all in pvt custom draft lobbies. I doubt they do because the games entire infrastructure of skill gating and hero availability is fucking stupid for the consumer.

there is a skill or level up ability thing in the general tab that slowly regens health over time (very slowly, but its helpful).

Swallow potions are replenished after meditating.

Nah, we will making weird America-Swedish food and American-Italian food forever.

And for like 2-3 matches of any type if you are below level 25 apparently. It's nothing since you likely want to give the hero a shot in a 10-15 minute bot match anyways.

Healing is a non-issue the farther along you go and the more booze you get. Plus you can get potions that make you heal when you use stamina. Then you murder everyone.

I think playing witcher on the hardest difficulty is kind of pointless. The challenge doesn't really change, the combat and overall character movement isn't close to being good enough to warrant the annoyance of things like regen etc. The game isn't really hard (on any setting) and every single fight will be dodge and mash your attack regardless. Witcher feels more to me about being cool and enjoying the story/world. If the fighting was more dynamic and engaging I'd probably change my mind because generally I like to play games on the hardest setting.

I have not noticed a difference when I pick up a new hero, but that might be the case. I always do at least one just to unlock the second ult for the hero, since some of the ults are garbage tier.

it did in alpha/beta. leveling up in bot games took forever compared to quick match. I haven't played the release version or any recent beta patch though.
