[QUOTE=Malvodion;40888138]6.78b already came out, in case someone missed it. (just bugfixes.) [url]http://www.playdota.com/changelogs/6.78b[/url] [url]http://www.getdota.com/[/url] And the customkeys for the two new heroes: [url]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/33591364/cursor/CustomKeys.rar[/url][/QUOTE] - Fixed swapping costing you an extra 100 gold if you swap after repicking a new hero - Fixed Quelling Blade doing damage to allied wards best bugs 403 starting gold if you swapped after repicking 10/10

I can't belive HE didn't think about those posibilities, specially the wards one.
So I took a 2 week break from dota2 after a crushing loss streak and I come back and lose again how do you guys deal with this?????

Why wouldn't he uncheck the "ally" box? :v:
[QUOTE=NoShogun;40888535]So I took a 2 week break from dota2 after a crushing loss streak and I come back and lose again how do you guys deal with this?????[/QUOTE] A bot game with mass dagons.
[QUOTE=NoShogun;40888535]So I took a 2 week break from dota2 after a crushing loss streak and I come back and lose again how do you guys deal with this?????[/QUOTE] By not caring about loss streak, as long as you don't get raped in less than 30 min? Seriously as long as a game isn't a steamroll I don't see why you should care.
Dota 2 is so fucking unstable its ridiculous. I crash, game crashes on launch 5 times in a row, and when I get in the game is at 2fps and unplayable and I have an abandon putting me into low priority. Most annoying thing is I play every other game at 60fps no problem, so it is not my PC. I don't claim my PC is that good, but its easily good enough to play Dota 2.
Do you have mods installed? I had an item swap on QoP that made my game freak the fuck out all the time until I removed it.
Weeeell it is technically beta (Valve'll probably fix that); what is your machine's specs? Also do you have other things running in the background whilst Dota 2's playing? I had a few crashes once, but nowadays I shut down my browser and turn off FreeRAM XP Pro so that the damn thing doesn't try to free up RAM whilst I'm in a match. Also, the only time I'd be feelbad about a loss streak is when it's a stomp loss streak, like if I'm not on top of my game or my team is lame or the enemy chose a good composition whilst my team chose whatever it wanted. Personally I've had a decent winstreak recently, though the two most recent matches (Venomancer and Sand King, respectively) were a bit of a stomp against the enemy team. In both I was pretty much the support guy, grabbing things like Arc Boots, Mek, Bongos, etc. It's kind of a force of habit; if the build calls for a Bracer, I am compelled to turn it into Bongos if no-one else has Bongos. Also, I still want there to be an Arcane-tier Banana skin for Venomancer; it's just so appealing.
[QUOTE=ironman17;40888860]two most recent matches (Venomancer and Sand King, respectively)[/quote] [QUOTE=ironman17;40888860]In both I was pretty much the support guy[/QUOTE] well yeah they're both support heroes [editline]3rd June 2013[/editline] although a sandking with farm slams kids hard
[QUOTE=devon_wargod;40888886]well yeah they're both support heroes[/QUOTE] True, though despite their supporting capabilities, SK doesn't have support in his list of Roles.
[QUOTE=ironman17;40888911]True, though despite their supporting capabilities, SK doesn't have support in his list of Roles.[/QUOTE] and gyro doesn't have carry in his list of roles valve's listed roles are generally retarded and not worth relying on
[QUOTE=devon_wargod;40889381]and gyro doesn't have carry in his list of roles valve's listed roles are generally retarded and not worth relying on[/QUOTE] Naix doesn't have jungle on his roles. Then again I seem to be the only person who thinks he's a great jungler.
[QUOTE=FlashMarsh;40889430]Naix doesn't have jungle on his roles. Then again I seem to be the only person who thinks he's a great jungler.[/QUOTE] iirc he does have jungler on his roles
[QUOTE=devon_wargod;40889445]iirc he does have jungler on his roles[/QUOTE] welp, I'm a fool
[QUOTE=Bat-shit;40888291]So I heard that all the remaining Heroes will be released by the end of TI3? No/Yes?[/QUOTE] Oh, right, you got unbanned ...
[QUOTE=FlashMarsh;40889430]Naix doesn't have jungle on his roles. Then again I seem to be the only person who thinks he's a great jungler.[/QUOTE] reality is he has jungler in his roles and he is a SHIT jungler
[QUOTE=nmagain;40889462]reality is he has jungler in his roles and he is a SHIT jungler[/QUOTE] even when you're against heavy harassers in lane and can't do shit
[QUOTE=FlashMarsh;40889430]Naix doesn't have jungle on his roles. Then again I seem to be the only person who thinks he's a great jungler.[/QUOTE] He can jungle, but he can't jungle [I]safely.[/I] His melee nature means he'll be tanking all the hits, and he won't even regenerate faster than jungle creep damage until about Level 3 Feast or so. If your enemy team is smart and attempts to gank you in jungle, you're in much more danger than a ranged jungler (Enigma, Nature's Prophet) who have expendable units to block damage coming to them. It's not like he has bad laning that jungle is the only route; He has an amazing slow at Level 1 and magic immunity/attack speed steroid to get kills on lane.
[QUOTE=nmagain;40889462]reality is he has jungler in his roles and he is a SHIT jungler[/QUOTE] I wouldn't call his jungle shit but it's definitely suboptimal and really situational (i.e. without it he'd solo against trilane or worse)
he is a shit jungler from level 1, i mean when he gets more levels hes decent in jungle but if you already started in lane going to the jungle will fuck up your support and/or give your lane opponents free farm and if you are getting harassed get mid/the support to help you, you have ez frag potential with your slow and rage [editline]3rd June 2013[/editline] read above for better explaination [editline]3rd June 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=NoShogun;40888535]So I took a 2 week break from dota2 after a crushing loss streak and I come back and lose again how do you guys deal with this?????[/QUOTE] stop caring too much about winning or losing and focus on having fun, play your favorite heroes again, and play with friends
[QUOTE=NoShogun;40888535]So I took a 2 week break from dota2 after a crushing loss streak and I come back and lose again how do you guys deal with this?????[/QUOTE] I don't get two loss streaks in a row, ever :v: Also, if you take a break from the game, you get rusty, and you're obviously going to lose some games when that happens. Just the nature of any sort of sport.
So I go playing Clock because our LD demands jungle. I ask for solo top. Last guy randoms razor and decides to go top. I tell him to have fun soloing it and go with KOTL bot. Oh. My. God. We kept that opposing lane permanently under their tower and when I got my ult, we actually managed to kill them under it. Also, Cogs into Chaos Meteor is a ridiculous combo.

Just cogs right in front of your opposing laners, and BAM, less health and half their mana is gone while pushing them away, making it impossible to last hit if placed right.
Ahhh, don't you just love it when the russian Vengeful Spirit on your team refuses to believe he's playing a support character, then proceeds to steal all of Specter's and Void's farm so he can build a butterfly immediately after boots? [editline]3rd June 2013[/editline] When I confronted him about it, he said that mek and forcestaff are stupid useless items, so why would he build them? He also laughed at me when I said we really needed him to be support because otherwise we had two hard carries and no support, because he didn't believe that Specter was a hard carry [editline]3rd June 2013[/editline] [url=http://dotabuff.com/matches/210768534]We still managed to win though[/url], but it was annoying as hell
Friend of mine got Pudges britches as a drop. TWICE. Not in the same game of course, but still.
Played with a friend I haven't play with in a long time First game, sotmped by ursa and skeleking Second game, 3 braindead teammates, one of them muted and claimed he was pretty good usually, he was just having bad luck, when he was getting killed by autoattacks (not a single point on windrunner) It's the karma
Facerolled one game. Re-matched with the same people. They pick the cheapest cunts I've ever seen. PL, Drow, you name it. Guess who won? [sp]Not us.[/sp]
[QUOTE=Zoran;40890448]They pick the cheapest cunts I've ever seen.[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=Zoran;40890448]Drow[/QUOTE] were you playing a squishy and low mobility support or something
[QUOTE=devon_wargod;40890559]were you playing a squishy support or something[/QUOTE] No but a good bit of our team was full of squishies. It didn't end well.
