Mediocre mmr knob here, so someone with higher mmr should confirm this. + Show Spoiler + Active: Guard - Grant nearby allied heroes a 100% chance to block 50 damage from each incoming attack, along with 2 armor. Lasts 9 seconds. + 250 Health + 6 HP Regeneration + 2 All Attributes + 5 Armor BLOCK CHANCE: 80% BLOCK DAMAGE MELEE: 40 BLOCK DAMAGE RANGED: 20 GUARD ARMOR: 2 GUARD DURATION: 9 GUARD RADIUS: 750 GUARD DAMAGE BLOCK : 50 Last edit: If you go standard PT's --> Diffusal blade --> Crimson Gaurd. You should be able to fight alot with this itemcombo and come out victorious because you get +2 atr +7 armour +250hp and a +90 damageblock aoe for 9 seconds. It helps you farm a butterfly faster in the jungle without wasting an itemslot, which also helps against the aura and increases the outputdamage of yourself and the illusions. | ||

we just had a rofl stomp of a game and one of the enemy team's players rage quit..abandoned and everything...but as people were continuing to quit bc of the abandon, the game registered it as poor network conditions and didn't score the game. any idea how this works? edit: replay does not appear in my profile either.. what if i wanted to watch the replay? | ||

"The chance of receiving a cluster drop depends on how long a player has participated in the event (across multiple games)." Does that work even if you've lost before? As long as you've participated in the event, regardless the result, it adds up to having a higher chance of triggering the event? | ||

I checked the patch logs and he didn't get any hard nerfs starting from 6.79. 6.82 is a lot more about teamfighting, and the dominant push comps that punish greed involve heroes that can start pushing faster than LD comes online (jakiro mainly) | ||

The chance of earning a cluster-drop is based on the total amount of time you've played in the event. Time is counted whether you Fulfilled or Denied the contract. Playing fast games or long games won't increase your chances. | ||

I thought they would play ogre alot when drafting lone druid, but apparantly Powerrangers think ogre is not a good support for lone druid. If you want to draft lone druid, maybe these 4 games can help you draft well. http://www.datdota.com/match.php?q=1035604726&p=items http://www.datdota.com/match.php?q=1034208958&p=items http://www.datdota.com/match.php?q=940159479&p=items http://www.datdota.com/match.php?q=933647271&p=items | ||

The chance of earning a cluster-drop is based on the total amount of time you've played in the event. Time is counted whether you Fulfilled or Denied the contract. Playing fast games or long games won't increase your chances. Sounds like "pseudo-random distribution" (even though that's not what PRD actually is) for drops. To use a hypothetical number, something like 0.5% chance per in-match minute since you last had a drop. That way, you'd have the same chance at an item whether you had 2 25-minute games or 1 50-minute game, assuming you were on the winning side of the contract. This is the same way battle points are earned -- in-match minutes. What's odd though is that the drops apply to the entire team, so whose counter does it rely upon? The person with the highest counter in the game? Lowest counter? Only the arcana holder? Do multiple arcana holders in a game stack their counters together? That just opens up more questions to be honest. | ||
