[QUOTE=Kondor;41154165]Played my first ever player game of dota going 11/1 in lane with timbersaw and we raxed them, then our viper decided to disconnect while we were still pushing, 10 minutes later our gyrocopter disconnects and we lose a 55 minute game we won 30 minutes in[/QUOTE] this is life in the brand new player bracket fucking leavers man
[QUOTE=nmagain;41154271]this is life in the brand new player bracket fucking leavers man[/QUOTE] I went through this in LoL a couple of years back, thought DotA would be different

Huskar is OP in pubs for the same reason Spirit Breaker and Nyx are OP in pubs. They are easily countered by game sense, coordination, positioning, and counterpicks. All things you can't rely on in pubs.
had 900 xp pr minute in one of them lmao [editline]23rd June 2013[/editline] automerge aaaaa
Had one of the most one-sided games in my short career just now. By the time the enemy got their first kill, we went 10-1. Even had a teamfight where we completely wrecked them in mere seconds and didn't lose anyone. Mighty satisfying though.

[QUOTE=Gate;41154511]buy a veil of discord, trust me is really good on zeus[/QUOTE] I was once iffy about it. "Ehh, it's just [I]so expensive[/I]..." Then I once rushed it, like "What the hell, Imma do this just for laughs." That was the moment I realised it kicks some serious ass. Seriously, it's rush-worthy on Zeusman.
On the Huskar thing, just get a Ghost Scepter, seriously you dont know how good it is until you try it.
I won a game just now.
[QUOTE=Kondor;41154363]I went through this in LoL a couple of years back, thought DotA would be different[/QUOTE] Both are played by same species, plagued by same behavioural patterns and emotions. It can't be different. What can be different though, are mechanics built around those people to limit such conduct. Those, unfortunately, can be at best "attempts", since you are dealing with customers who by the rule of market, have right to do as they please. There's some crazy stuff in ideas of "overseer" players and replacement-in-game system, but for the time being, people are dicks and best thing to do about it is to do the opposite, as in not be a dick.
[QUOTE=Kondor;41154363]I went through this in LoL a couple of years back, thought DotA would be different[/QUOTE] people are people regardless of what you play dont go around expecting people to be better! in x or y game, it never happens :v:
Can anyone with Gloomblade take a picture of it with ulti? Seeing as they fixed my PA's warblade from the set I would love to see how they fixed Gloomblade.
[QUOTE=Gate;41154511]buy a veil of discord, trust me is really good on zeus[/QUOTE] This. [url]http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=138389299[/url] Increasing the damage of two Agh-upgraded Zeus ults by 25% is definitely worth it, especially if you land Veil's active on the entire enemy team.
[QUOTE=NoName-;41154607]On the Huskar thing, just get a Ghost Scepter, seriously you dont know how good it is until you try it.[/QUOTE] Ghost Scepter Viper is incredibly hilarious [QUOTE=Belivo;41154547]I was once iffy about it. "Ehh, it's just [I]so expensive[/I]..." Then I once rushed it, like "What the hell, Imma do this just for laughs." That was the moment I realised it kicks some serious ass. Seriously, it's rush-worthy on Zeusman.[/QUOTE] It's not really that expensive, its just a little over half the cost of an aghs which effects anything you manage to get veil on. and veil lasts an amazing time and gives pretty much everyone on your team aghs upgrades [QUOTE=Gate;41154511]buy a veil of discord, trust me is really good on zeus[/QUOTE] veil is the most underrated item in the game, closely followed by orchid
[QUOTE=Gate;41154511]buy a veil of discord, trust me is really good on zeus[/QUOTE] The active is very good, but the stats really fall short imo. I always go bottlerush into mana boots into point booster, which gives me a decent mana pool. By this time I'm out ganking several lanes and coordinating ults with gankers, and I usually get my agha around 20 minutes, then build a forcestaff if I'm having trouble staying away from people or straight refresher. Normally I have my refresher (if I'm ballin) at 26-28 minutes, and can then oneshot their supports from my own fountain. I then win. The issue with Veil is that it's not up all the time (cd is reasonably short though), and doesn't work on your ultimate, unless you use it in a teamfight of course, but that would mean that you only got the damage buff when you are in a possibly bad situation. The armor and int is ok, but doesn't let you have the manapool you need for a fast refresher. The buildup is easy, but so is agha, once you get a few kills. [editline]23rd June 2013[/editline] oh and imo you shouldn't aim for a late game w zeus, since everyone and their mom gets bkbs. Focus on getting one or two big items and then crush them since you've got the advantage. His window of opportunity closes really fast, so you can't drag on for too long. Building veil before agha really pushes back agha+refresher which is really the last power "jump" he gets. [editline]23rd June 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=Keychain;41154975]This.

I wonder if Valve will do an SFM cinematic to commemorate the official release of Dota 2? They did so for Halloween and Christmas, or Diretide and The Greeviling as they call it, so doing a cinematic for the official release wouldn't be too far-fetched.
[img]http://i.imgur.com/Fg3Ativ.png[/img] this build was hilarious ps its not me
orchids is magical damage so its amplified too. so legit.
You have to waste 3 seconds if you want both orchid and dagon damage to stack though. 2 if you are a robot with the most perfect timing of all time.
orchid was just for tidehunter ultin
[QUOTE=Batmoutarde;41155455][img]http://i.imgur.com/Fg3Ativ.png[/img] this build was hilarious ps its not me[/QUOTE] a natures on our team did this midas -- > rapier -- > rapier -- > rapier -- > rapier -- > rapier -- > rapier(sold midas) it was so great

I was thinking, is okish to rush a battlefury for heroes with low farming power?
midas is usually a better option, not all heroes can use a battlefuries cleave effectively for farming and combat
[QUOTE==DarkStar=;41155739]I was thinking, is okish to rush a battlefury for heroes with low farming power?[/QUOTE] Battlefury is an item that allows a good farmer to become a great farmer. It doesn't do much for a bad farmer. You usually get Radiance for bad farmers.

Imo Q first on zeus is fucking AMAZING in lane. Your auto attack is fucking awful, so you can use your Q to not only get easy last hits, but to also harass the enemy hero in lane. Amazing. While you're doing this you can level your W and suddenly you do massive fucking damage and can swoop down for the kill on your already harassed enemy. Just buy lots of clarities.

I've been having some really decent games lately with || and my girlfriend and other friends, usually I'm on losing streaks, but I've had a winning streak and some good games even if we lose [IMG]http://puu.sh/3mC5J.jpg[/IMG]
