What's the best thing to do with excess player cards? Sell them on the market or do a one time big time offering?

Make a big time offering (after trading the more rare ones. The rares are wayto illidanstr xiangxii xiao8 YYF xtinct yamateh zai yao, although only wayto illidanstr xiangxii and yao are "well-known" to be rare and therefore more people seem to want them).

There are some people that traded around 1k to 2k cards http://www.reddit.com/r/Dota2Trade/comments/298jeh/q_what_should_i_get_if_i_offered_3200_items/

Uhh scratch all that, looks like the offering got nerfed. I personally will probably hold onto my cards and wait for another offering to come up with a different event (unless the expiring means that they disappear from my inventory? I'll have to research that unless someone here knows about expiration).

Just to be clear, when you have multiple boots, only the movement speed doesn't stack (you benefit from the fastest one). Other stats provided by the slower boots still benefit you. For example when a carry lategame buys Travels while still carrying Treads (a conceivable scenario where you might have 2 Boots), you don't lose the Treads' +8 Stats and +30 AS, while still benefiting from the faster MS of the Travels.

Expiration is self explanatory. The items disappear.

What should we do with the ton of card packs? Sell them unopened or wait to sell? Or any idea?

Okay, does the "whole team leaves, don't get an abandon" thing still work?

Tried it twice today as a 5 stack and got an abandon because someone pressed "leave game", but when we didn't leave the game just sat there for multiple minutes waiting for us to recon.

Team Matchmaking
Team matchmaking is now merged into ranked matchmaking
To play as a team, prepare a party of five for ranked matchmaking. Then select the option to play using the team identity.
Max team roster size increased from 5 to 7. Any team roster change will reset the team MMR.
You may not create a team or be a member of a team until you reach level 13. (Existing teams with players lower than level 13 are not removed from the roster, but will be prevented from matchmaking.)
Abandonment rules and available game modes are now the same as ordinary ranked matchmaking.
You may not participate in team matchmaking while in the low priority matchmaking pool.
Teams will only be matched against other ranked parties of five, preferably against other parties playing using a team identity, but potentially against ordinary parties not using a team identity.

My understanding of the way it works is that if everyone on one team disconnects, then the game ends in a loss and not an abandon. The key word here being 'disconnect'. This includes just leaving the game without abandoning it, meaning you're on the screen where it gives you the option to reconnect. If you actually abandon, then even if everybody else on your team left, you get the abandon. Also, since you're playing in a 5-stack, if anybody else on your team abandons, you get an abandon as well.

This means that your entire team would need to be on the Reconnect screen for I think a minute before the game ends. Of course, this is just my understanding of it, I'm more than willing to be proven wrong.
