tbh the vast majority of people on this planet don't know how to google the most basic questions. Being able to independently learn things on your own already puts you WAY ahead of the pack

I'm actually enjoying solo-queue for the first time years. Focusing almost exclusively on playing pos 5, mostly WD, Silencer and Warlock. Feels great, dota is a fun game.

Dota is at the point where pos 5 doesn't get punished for anything now. So no wonder you enjoy it. Stress free experience. You can only have positive impact.

I suppose you can always have buyback to make dank plays now, if I were forced to look at it positively.

I quit for about 3 years or so, and I gotta say I think that the experience of a support has MAJORLY increased. Maybe it's not as noticeable if you slowly experienced it over time, but coming back and having more gold available, more options to move around rather than just sit in your lane and watch your carries farm, more ways to stay relevant levels wise, more useful items that actually impact the game available, etc. the game is a lot more bearable as a support.

There are a few things that I'd like to see changed here and there that seemed better from before, but overall I'd say that the changes really have been overall great gameplay wise

It would just be another thing to add to the long list of reasons I've been banned. I imagine it'd fall right between "Hosting too many AMAs" and "Making shitty anime memes"

Couldn't agree more. Playing support is definitely more fun now compared to a couple years ago. Mostly because, like you said, you have more option what you can be doing. And this has had a HUGE impact on pubs, especially the lower MMR brackets. I see it in my legend games, people are way more willing to play supports now compared to before. That is super important for the overall experience of playing dota.

You guys talked about ads here a couple days ago. So I just wanna say, ads like this on liquipedia. That's not ok. It stays on the screen and covers everything no matter where you scroll. Who the fuck thinks these ads are acceptable? This made me install a new better adblocker to get rid of that shit.

I mean I just got the scam amazon prize redirect iPhone ad again right now. It’s super annoyed no but it’s very hard to report it from phone.

Anyways only wanted to post that I’m pretty sure Kyle wants to kill tobi as much as me. Rofl.

How about an unpopular dota opinion? I think Status Resistance is a cool mechanic and I hope to see more of it in the game. For example, if Enrage gave you temporary very high status resistance, I think that would be pretty interesting. I could also see it on some talents for heroes.

Yeah I don't think Kyle likes Tobi much at all.

They keep taking jabs at each other the whole cast. Tobi seems to be taking the legitimacy out of what Kyle is trying to say and it killed their ability to make the game feel interesting.

Kyle was right the whole time in the Mineski v iG game, the AM was always going to win after a laning stage that strong, but Tobi kept trying to force the comeback narrative for iG and it just didn't work. I think being realist about the game state is more interesting to listen to than being a pure hype man. Their styles just clash too hard.

I don't like status resistance, it forces people to play with status bars on.
I would either remove one or both.
I just think it was cooler when you had to time stuff by yourself. All the little stuff make for a more interesting game.

I've been playing Shadow Warrior 2 for the last few days and it feels so nice to play such a simple, straightforward game.

I don't think that really puts us ahead of the pack considering how common this is. I think the only people who can't do that are those who doesn't really utilize the internet outside social media.

But those who google much more complicated stuff and put them into application well that's the one ahead of the pack

The sound when someone takes a stack you did is so satisfying. I mean, the actual gold you're getting is pitiful, but it sounds like you won the freaking lottery

I am glad I am not the only one getting these. They are super annoying.
