You nerds trying to make dotes heroes into pokermanz...

I actually was thinking about making a dota2 custom map where you have pokemon style battles with heroes, but the amount of learning I'd have to do is pretty prohibitive

you could also argue for ground/rock for SK since he's just sand in the shape of a scorpion and not actually a scorpion, but i definitely feel that he's a rock type considering sandstorm being a rock type move

thats probably literally because they dont want a flying type to prevent sandstorm?

And STAB doesn't even matter considering sandstorm doesn't do direct damage.

I always thought a team fight battle arena would be really fun. Just fully kitted out heroes that you pick from the pool, have a massive fight and then reset. Heroes could only be used once. Team with the most won fights take the game.

I was thinking straight up pokemon style where you can only carry 5 heroes, types are Carry, Mid, Support etc, you walk around the map and fight 'neutrals' and 'trainers' like Pudge Picker, <russian characters I can't be botehred to look up now>, Trench Support etc. Full on single player with epic story where you have to get 8 LAN badges, win TI Quals and TI itself to go to the hall of fame.

Dota runs fine with 2gb of ram, EL eats my 2gb alive.

Seems legit. How have you not upgraded to more ram? That is like the cheapest upgrade ever.

I have an 8 year old setup with a ddr2 2 ram slots motherboard.
Anything below a ~$500 upgrade is pointless at this point.
