Well, I've experienced the power of lvl3 monkey ult with BC+LW. With those, maw, and hydra, I dealt 2200 damage with ulti alone, to someone with ~150 armor.

This is the worst idea ever. Half the reason I switched from SC2 to LoL is because I could actually tell where I was. SC2 was boring because you lost that tracker.

I can't say enough how much I hate this change. Does Dota2 have ratings visible? Maybe I'll switch...

SC2 was boring because its not a good game, not because of the tracking thing.
Which i mean honestly if youre switching because of a rating system, you probably dont care enough about the game anyway.

Dota 2 has no ratings at all, only a vague normal, high and very high skill rating. There is no ''team MMR'' yet. Frankly I doubt there ever will be solo Q mmr though(and perhaps for good reason).

exactly what i thought....

why hide it? isn't this type of minor achievement and feel-good ranking catering to the people who play normals anyways?

then again judging by the amount of "this will fix elo hell" posts in the official comments, there's a large section of people that need to be babied about their rating.

Motivation is a huge part of competitve games and hiding the rating takes a lot of that away.

You're probably right. Which is why I would consider switching to dota2. do you know? nm, someone answered me.

Anyone know of another game that's competitive?

i like being competitive more than anything.

Dota 2 has no ratings at all, only a vague normal, high and very high skill rating. There is no ''team MMR'' yet. Frankly I doubt there ever will be solo Q mmr though(and perhaps for good reason).

In fairness, there are also inhouse leagues for people that are serious enough and at a high enough level.

That's the thing though, DotA sort of grew around the community doing shit for itself when the features weren't there (not unlike BW), which is why its not a big deal that Valve didn't implement visible MMR in DotA. By contrast, LoL grew around the idea of Riot doing everything.

Maybe outside sites like LoLMatches will be able to calculate your hidden ranked MMR. If so, then I don't really mind this so much.

Warmog's isn't really an issue. The real one is that with the effectiveness of resists nerfed so much, health is pretty much the best stat to get because it protects you against both magic and physical burst.

What's that? Jungle gold changes? Time for some math!

The base value of a creep wave is 105g, or 145g on waves with a cannon minion. Factoring in the 16 gp10 passive, this gives a perfect last-hitter approximately 333 gold per minute, increasing by 6.66 gold every 3 minutes (or 1.11 gold per minute).

The total gold value of all small camps is now 172g. Factoring in passive gold again, this gives a farming jungler 268 gold per minute, increasing by 2.724 gold every minute.

So from the outset (and without considering buff camps) a jungler who can perpetually farm small camps matches a lane which last-hits at 75% accuracy. All it takes for a jungler to completely match a perfect lane is to leech one creep wave every two minutes, and as time passes it only becomes more favorable for the jungler.

We're tip-toeing close to a point where it may be more valuable to send a hard carry into the jungle, knowing that it is the safest place in the game to get a carry farmed. So long as the jungler is in place to cover lanes when there's a recall or a swap they'll get better farm than any lane (possibly much better if you cede built-up creep waves). Whether we've crossed that threshold or not remains to be seen, and depends heavily on whether there are any champions who fit the bill, but it's a distinct possibility.

New jungle probably still requires machete, which still sucks , 300 gold sink right there, and possibly the 2nd tier machete item gunna cost a lot of gold too.

You shouldn't need to upgrade Machete if you're playing a hard carry; you're going to build damage anyway. In that case Machete is only a 90g sunk cost as it sells for 210g.
