I wonder what happened this time

That's because the server is down atm, didn't the client kick you out when they closed it?


I know that, I posted before they shut it off :p (when the countdown just started.)

It's just been a long time since they needed to do a complete platform restart. Wasn't the last one in November or something?

I've actually found watching the Challenger games is more interesting than LCS. At least OGN is still being really fun ;(.

Also dam Axe is being picked a lot these days wtf.

Maybe, i remember reading a riot post a few weeks ago about how all the instability this year has been isp related, and the game platform hasn't been taken offline except for patches since like october/november, but they might have killed it since them.

I was online when they were restarting the platform just can't remember when it was. Think it was in the last month or so on a weekend.

It's also way easier to chain them with Darius than Axe I'd wager, since he can just burn it on a support for the first reset and make the fight a 5v4, while in DotA it's harder to get in range to use it and killing a support first isn't necessarily as big a setback for his team than in LoL?
Plus he won't 100-0 squishies in the late game since it doesn't scale.

Well the old problem with axe was where the hell do you lane him. I guess with the last patch changing the offlane it helped him a lot.

Not that I'm saying I am any authority or any level of good on DotA. But when I was playing axe he seemed to do fine offlane/jungle.

All these sever problems/dc could it be a result of that ip lookup program that allows you to ddos people?

Jungle axe is fundamentally pretty bad in a competitive game since he offers nothing early on and gets destroyed by any support rotation/aggressive jungling. Offlane used to be super hard but they changed it quite a lot a few patches back to make it easier(Small camp at normal pull spot and creep equilibrium shifted more to offlaner). He's been fine in pubs for a long time it was just hard to place him anywhere in a comp game.

Yango prob knows more about why he's being played now though since I haven't been watching dota in awhile(China is back though!!)

It is because people are cowards and talking is slightly more intimidating then typing. But eventually that effect would sort of run out as they became more comfortable. But still better then strictly typing. Also, there probably wouldn't be as many people caught while typing a rage message about how bad some one else is. lol.


Damn that's cynical. I'll take the view that hearing the other person's voice reminds you that there's a human behind the player and you shouldn't be mean to them.


You should get on TS with Rawfulz :3

Actually come watch now http://www.twitch.tv/carnivoroussheep

Make sure to turn the sound up.

OK I'm done streaming hope you caught Roffles being moe :3

Tbh, Axe getting picked in Dota 2 is still very very situational. He's still incredibly niche (albeit not as much as before). When he is picked, he usually goes as a support. He can somewhat jungle so he tends to do that while supporting your duo safe/hard lane.

that's part of it but the other part is people actually listening to their own voice.

its so much easier to type garbage and just leave it on the internet than it is to spout shit while talking.
of course, there are exceptions but for the most part it holds true from my experience.

clearly you guys have never been on a Counter Strike server, or played on any xbox live.

I rant (and sometimes curse) an awful lot when I play, hearing my own voice doesn't change anything (actually it vents my frustration while typing wouldn't do it), although I wouldn't do it on a voice chat because the other guys don't necessarily need/deserve to hear mean stuff like that.
