EPTIcefrog never explained Dota patches, and Dota2 is as big as you can see. And yes, he has made lots of patches that completely changed the game.
I just like a silent approach to things. Deliver content and let the community try and exploit it.

Yes  Well we used to do this and always got hundreds of questions to explain the decisions, so might as well explain. Especially since there is a good reason behind every change. | ||

It will be web-based, so no point discussing that, but there will be some other changes.
Now, I know the ladder has been quite inactive lately, but let's just assume it was very active. What features would you like in a renewed ladder? | ||

If you have two players, one is B other is D, then the combined team value would be what is used to determine win/loss of points. | ||

Was always Siege tank, Vulture, spider mine, Science vessel. Occasionally, I'd have vulture drops, but outside that realm, never saw it. | ||

Why was it barely used? Apart from reaver and storm, stim and medics was pretty beef as far as I remember. Mech was good for the spider mine spam and the large collision size making it possible to dilute the effects of psi storm or reaver hits. | ||
