Dota 2 General Chat - ALCHEMIST IS BACK BABY - Games

[QUOTE=RainbowStalin;38045007]0/11/3 Riki 'fuk u i play for fun' nnnerrgh[/QUOTE] I like to get into debate with such gys. Polite debate mind you. Once or twice every month or so I even manage to convince someone to change their ways. Only works though if it gets past certain level : - fuk u i play for fun - I too want to play for fun, is it allright with you? <If he answers anything but another "fuk u" there is chance>

[QUOTE=RainbowStalin;38045007]0/11/3 Riki 'fuk u i play for fun' nnnerrgh[/QUOTE] Who would find going 0/11 fun?

[QUOTE=Da_Maniac_;38045104]Who would find going 0/11 fun?[/QUOTE] Someone who has given up and wants the game to finish asap, but doesn't want to take fault as he doesn't perceive his teammates as anything but hinderance to his enjoyment. Or an asshole. Ooooor someone who actually had fun while playing game, maybe a good support with 0/11/30 or something, but I doubt their response would sound "fuk u".

[QUOTE=RainbowStalin;38045007]0/11/3 Riki 'fuk u i play for fun' nnnerrgh[/QUOTE] Reminds me of this Riki the other day, in Single Draft, where I went on a suicide lane with the Riki as Batrider myself. I spammed Sticky Napalm so hard in the lane that eventually, before his only death, the Riki snowballed into Rampage beyond fucking godlike.

RainbowStalin mentioned riki who pretty much fed and reasoned that it was so because he plays for fun. You mention Riki whom you managed to carry into winning you a game pretty much. I fail to see connection there.

We might indeed get a 3 hero update if they make the last stuff in time. Can't wait! (according to the wiki)

Considering Slark is coming out for sure, and Centaur + Medusa is in the dev build, a 3 hero update is highly likely.

[QUOTE=Rarara;38045562]Considering Slark is coming out for sure, and Centaur + Medusa is in the dev build, a 3 hero update is highly likely.[/QUOTE] Suddenly. Abaddon. (Because Techies will be released symulatenously with Half-Life 3)

[QUOTE=Rarara;38045562]Considering Slark is coming out for sure, and Centaur + Medusa is in the dev build, a 3 hero update is highly likely.[/QUOTE] They might pull a meepo on slark. He was supposedly in beta status for quite literaly a shitload of time, and still wasn't released right after TI2. But I guess they could have had more stuff to deal with other than hero developing/testing during TI2. I really hope we get them 3. Slark seems very interesting.

The only hero I'm waiting for aside from Troll Warlord is techies. And possibly Goblin Shredder.

[QUOTE=BoxinShrimp;38046222]The only hero I'm waiting for aside from Troll Warlord is techies. And possibly Goblin Shredder.[/QUOTE] I am scared of Troll Warlord. Any mana regen on that guy and entire team has 3+ hyperstones.

[QUOTE=Tokagero;38046251]I am scared of Troll Warlord. Any mana regen on that guy and entire team has 3+ hyperstones.[/QUOTE] Friend of mine who plays dota for a long time confirms this. People used to combine him with MoM and get COLOSALL attack speeds until it was fixed or something of the sort.

[QUOTE=dass;38046636]Friend of mine who plays dota for a long time confirms this. People used to combine him with MoM and get COLOSALL attack speeds until it was fixed or something of the sort.[/QUOTE] I don't have idea how it can be fixed. AS stacks, end of story I believe. Still, there are drawbacks to this ultimate. It's uptime is 50% at best, i.e. stunned warlord right after ultime makes entire team weaker. + THE reason it is balanced most likely. 13 base int + 1 level gain. This hero won't benefit from Sage's Mask more than from Ring of Basilius until level 17 (including 2 points in stats). He needs big int+manaregen item or a team of arcanes, otherwise he is easily out of mana, EMP Invoker or Anti-Mage is death of his AS boost. Let's not forget he is agility carry, so big int+ items might be wasteful on him, however his passive that grants insane AS against single target might be good enough reason to pick up sheepstick for same reason Ursa might go for sheepstick, i.e. isolating a guy. Any feedback from Dota 1 ? I haven't been there since era of X Hero Siege 3.12 glory (3.30 sucked) and I ain't coming back. [I]The horrors[/I] [editline]15th October 2012[/editline] Oh god. Troll Warlord with Mask of Madness + Invoker's Alacrity + Beast Master aura + Ogre's Bloodlust + Mirana's AS buff from landing after Leap Somebody tell me there is no hardcap on AS in Dota, please. Fuck me if Beast Master or troll picks up Assault Cuirass in that case, geez. [B]* God damn it,[/B] there is cap. 400 AS. I wonder if this will be changed later on maybe.

[QUOTE=Banned?;38044525]Pretty much. I think it was worse in HoN but HoN is also the deepest, darkest crevice that is the asshole of the aRTS communities.[/QUOTE] 1 time I met a girl in HoN, instantly one of my teammates was harassing her all game to say shit and to sing "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star". She spent like 10 minutes burning down trees as Pyromancer (Lina's equivalent hero)...

Don't exactly know the exact state of how troll warlord's speed boosting in dota 1, but I can find out later. All I know is that you'd crack yourself laughing at the speed :v:

[QUOTE=Captain Chalky;38047216]I find it sad that Death Prophet is much more of a Silecer than the Silencer.[/QUOTE] Silencer is sort of like the enigma of silencing. Just like enigma can disable a whole team in a good blink and black hole and literaly turn the tide of the game providing your team can actually do something, silencer can put a time out on spells for 6 seconds. 6 painfull seconds where your casters can't cast, your rikis can't riki, and whatever more that needs to use mana can't be used. On top of that, if you cast anything close to him, its about 3 more seconds of no casting anything, and believe me, that is a BITCH. Bonus: it steals 2 intelligence points from whoever dies near it, and gives them to silencer. Yup. He also has that little nuke of his that chews your health if you don't cast anything, so imagine that after a few silences, and last but not least, his glaives of wisdom, that deal additional damage based on his intelligence. Intelligence you built from leveling, items, AND stolen from whoever died near you, that got silenced to death. He's good, but requires a bit of careful hands.

This is balanced though with his carrypotential and detrimen to enemy team in form of - intellgience. I mean sure, there is carry that has big teamfight AoE and great carry potential, but his ultimate is wonkier than siliencer's and he doesn't remove any stat from enemies [B]permamently.[/B] I swear to god, I wanna see pro team do a ganking setup with silencer being near every kill just to make enemies unable to combo/cast. Tide with not enough max mana to Ravage, hilarity ensues amongst viewers.

[QUOTE=Tokagero;38044459] It's always nicer when Crystal Maiden uses voice chat and you actually hear a female voice, instead of squeeky 12 year old.[/QUOTE] Probably the inner misogynist in me coming out but I hate when I see female players that only play Crystal Maiden and Windrunner. I don't know why but it aggravates me.

Most of death prophet's respawn lines are pretty sad. Sorry you didn't stay dead but I need you to zap more stuff. Also your accent gives me multiple boners.

[QUOTE=Badunkadunk;38047649]Probably the inner misogynist in me coming out but I hate when I see female players that only play Crystal Maiden and Windrunner. I don't know why but it aggravates me.[/QUOTE] It's more of a "being useful, learning to play the game and having some diversity" instead imo. When I started playing this, I looked at OD and went "Holy shit look at him! He looks mad, and such an awesome model with awesome textures! And wow, hear his fucking mad voice and lines! Even his name sounds like a bucket load of "fuck you world"! " That was followed by some pretty horrible games due to him being rather useless in the hands of an inexperienced person and since he doesn't really has abilities that are really useful compared to others. Then I started trying out other heroes that, IMO, don't look as mad bonkers as OD, and ended up much better. I saw a girl who only used Luna and Lion, but nowadays, she even uses invoker.

If you share UNIT CONTROL as Lanaya allies can spring traps, right ? I had a game as TA where I asked this question and noone answered even a word. Early game they said few things, rest of chat was my colour entirely.

[QUOTE=RainbowStalin;38048108] Also your accent gives me multiple boners.[/QUOTE] This and about death prophet, do her wailing lines ever play in game?

The only "Girls" on dota I've seen were the fake ones that pretended to be a girl but had an avatar of a model that you could just reverse image search and take them to their page.

[QUOTE=arfbarf;38042684]So, recently, I've been trying to play the game after months of not touching it. I've been getting these strange graphical problems though. I've never seen anything like this happen before. And yes, my drivers are up to date.

The only girl I played against was a tool. She didn't announce her presence which was refreshing, but she picked Ogre Magi and said that she should have more farm as me as Jugg, when I asked her to stop competing with me for last-hits cause it would mess us up she said "It's ok I have tits :3" It's okay guys, she had tits. Edit: Not hatin', she turned out to be pretty funny but DAMN that was retarded.

SF and SD look great for example.[/QUOTE] AM is Juggernaut-kind of menacing. He is focused, armed and you can see by his looks that he had some monk-ish training. Lore supports it as well. Funny case is Phantom Lancer. He is fisherman,looks like a basic pole-bearing grunt for some tribal-living cat people. Yet, when you get a taboon of illusions with all those long and pointy spears, it works like hell. It kinda reminds of "Hussary', except on foot. Panda, I guess you are refecing Brewmaster, isn't carry directly, he is semicarry and teamfight disruption. Yes, he can carry well, but his "menace" comes from his posture. He is big, strong, carries a large "stick" and 2 of his signature moves (Thunderclap and Primal Split) are big and flashy, making him almost a party-animal. Except at that party you die. Storm Spirit looks goofy, but it works well. He is cunning/funny, he isn't carry that fights you head on like SF or Drow, he zips-zaps-zoops-kakakaju-s around ya, all while stylin and smilin. Let me put it like that, if any other carry finished a pack of enemies off, they would just turn around and leave, Storm would make a revenant to clap for him , while he's bowing and thanking "the crowd". Lore suggests he is crazed by the encounter that happend to him, a mixture of human nature and elemental power.
