Was 5.4 the blink dagger Vigoss era?

nah 6.43b and 6.48b were the big VP blink patches iirc, it was patched out after that for 6.52e (last dota 1 patch I played seriously D: )

ALSO I JUST HAVE TO CORRECT SOMETHING, DJSONA SUPERIORMOBA SKIN HAS SOME LEGIT ARTISTS LIKE CRYSTAL METHOD BASSNECTAR PRETTY LIGHTS WHO MADE MUSIC, NO SKRILLEX

also tbh there's nothing wrong with Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites, it's not Mozart but it was a pretty solid EP before it was overplayed

that was probably due to the sheer volume of games played at DAC

Eh, preTI3 era dota had some pretty undiverse tournaments with similar numbers of games played.


most of them weren't LANs and none of them really got close to the number of games played at DAC... there were 200+ games from the group stages of DAC alone

There weren't 200+ games in the groups stage. There were a lot of games, but it was almost half that number. It was like 100-120.


aah you're right, i can't count.

still, the number of games played in DAC group stages was more than the entirety of many pre-TI3 LANs

I know there's a few heroes that are way more likely to be picked at a LAN because of ping, but really not that many (Puck is the primary example I can think of).

talking about dota1 is clearly off topic since the volvo approved game is dota2
When in doubt, just believe in yourself and press buttons

there's this trending tumblr dress where people see blue + black or white + gold.

i think people saying it's blue + black is just trolling.

look for similar images on google and it returns blue shit, so the picture is apparently *actually* blue + black

I see blue + black and can't imagine how it would be white + gold but the internet says the overexposure of the photo somethingsomethingscience

We had that problem too, ended up using 3 tanks to solve it. Otherwise give them a priest shield to run from slam and external cooldown when they get to 3 stacks of the armor debuff.

apparently if you view it on a bright screen it looks white and gold. on my phone it looks blue and black but on my laptop screen it's closer to white and gold

I kinda get the Gold vs Black, but I really can't see how it could look anything but blue.
