Hey, When i open up dota 2 after installation, all i get is a black screen with a monitor message saying it can't run on so and so. Is there any known easy solution to this? I have no other problem with any games.

Having the exact wording of "so and so" would probably be helpful. Not only is this not necessarily the right place to ask - we're not psychic.
For every battle honour a thousand heroes die alone, unsung, and unremembered.

screen may not like the default resolution?
try adding to the launch options.
dota2, rightclick properties , set launch options
-window -w #### -h ### -noborder

where ###'s are your prefered high and width for resolution
also add
-novid if you want to skip the valve intro video
rejection and peace tiramisu. I think that went well.

Do anyone remember the website where EG.Demon once went to to "random" a hero with random items? And the challenge is to win with that hero. I remember that the name of the website is super random. I can't seem to find it.

Are you sure of the site name? A similar site is http://divinecourage.dy.fi/ .

Oh God.... why.. don't spread this garbage around please. There is enough trolling in public games/etc, unless your fully confident in all heroes to be playing with deficit items the only time this should be cool is if everyone did a full Random Inhouse.

@LAN-F34R: Don't try to defend it because it's "sort of kind of viable" please. Something like this is not beneficial at all to the vast majority of Dota2 / Moba players. This is literally random x trollbuild, I can't find a better terminology for it. How would you feel if you lost your game if you had an Arcane Boots AM and Riki Arcane + Heart of torrasque?

I keep getting things that are semi-viable. Anti-Mage with Arcane Boots, Manta Style, Heart of Tarrasque, Shiva's Guard, Abyssal Blade and Assault Cuirass - only the shivas and arcanes are bad lol (although AC and abyssal could be better).
The only barrier to truth is the presumption that you already have it. It's through our pane (pain) we window (win though).

You just said that the list is only "kind of" bad, that is by nature a defending post even if that was not your intent. Half the time it tells you to get Vlads on a ranged hero...what more can I say? If there was a blacklist on TL and I was a moderator, this would be slapped on immediately.

Anyway, if anyone wants to continue this train of thought, PM me.

a) I said shivas is bad, and that AC isn't optimal - aka AC > shiva's

b) I know how you actually build AM, did you pay attention to the divine courage thing?

That happens to me all the time anyway. If it's not ridiculous items it stupid play. I've given up worrying about it and just having fun.

So I played one game of Earthshaker for once.

Holy fuck, that is quite easily the most fun hero in the game. What are also some great initiators? Holy fuck I just had a blast Blinking around, fucking everyone up with my stuns.

EDIT: And some good keybind setups? I just use QWER / 123456 but I feel there's something more efficient out there.

Hey sorry for the silly question and I'm sure the answer is in my face but.. How do you change the settings to make the shops only show the pic of the item and not the name? I've seen it on pro streams and looks like it would be much faster

There is an option in-game at the top of the shop.
