Holy crap dota 2 truly sucks to watch when you know nothing about the game.. this will never go mainstream.


SC2 is 100 times worse to watch if you don't know what is going on


I strongly disagree, I know plenty of people having not played the game but enjoyed the game, and understood a decent amount of it


Quoted for truth. I've made my 60+ year old computer illiterate female coworkers watch SC2 and enjoy it.

(Them being female is relevant because that fits the gaming stereotype even less.)

He is extremely good when the game has gone 45+ mins, but the team is at a disadvantage until then.

He's an hyper carry.
A character that can kill everything very easy if you gave him enough time to build up.

Think PvT where Terran stay on MMM without viking ghost against colossis storm :p

well with anti mage being picked, this game will either last 15-20 mins or 50-60 mins

itll take longer than that, theyll want to push with radi on sylla BoT on tinker pipe meka on supports and BKB on NS, at that stage at best AM will have Battlefury yasha treads so its gonna be a tough game for navi

they need to shut down the sylla farm imo




....What?

Is this what other people feel like when they're reading about SC2 but have never played?

he's a hard carry who needs loads of farm to be super effective against all the other heroes on the other team. basically he'll farm for 30 minutes or so, and if he gets enough key items, he'll be able to basically 1v5 in the late game.

I've got some other stuff downloading, and watching another stream, and I can't do all that while also watching the DH finals.

Then I realise I can just turn on the TV. Win!

I know what the individual words/abbreviation means, but put together it's still gibberish to me

But yes, you're probably right.

Sylla being on the suicide lane should make that easy... however mTw Sylla's on suicide lanes have been really successful.

ideally you want to avoid any 1v5s, never is good unless you play Spectre.

Maybe I've just watched marine's being split to often but ... why do Dota2 players never split there minions (like broodmother spiderlings, eidlons, natures prophet trees, etc) against AOE attacks? They always seem ultra bunched up. Is there some benefit to keeping them stacked up or do they just all suck at the game just now?
