[QUOTE=dire_luck;40584646]Hurm, so it seems like if you have an activated armlet on your spirit bear as lone druid and then transfer it to your inventory, it doesn't drain your HP.

At least that's what it looks like, was happening in the Alliance v Mouz game that just ended.
Can someone test this?[/QUOTE]
Yeah but it doesn't give you the bonuses from being activated.

Everyone knows about this, including big tournaments banning it.

[QUOTE=psychojake;40580384]Is it worth the $10 for the Compendium? I'm interested in watching the International and the other rewards look pretty nice too.[/QUOTE]
Yes, it comes with an Immortal courier that's cheaper than the other one's, a bunch of info on every team, a survey thing (?), a battle-point booster, and possibly some other rewards if enough people buy it.
But you don't need it to watch the TI3. Watching the TI3 is absolutely free.

The Smeevil Courier that comes with it is no longer immortal. It is "Genuine Legendary." But if we make it to 400k sales of the compendium we all get another immortal item.
The next reward we unlock are mounts for the smeevil courier (similar to the Murrissey the Smeevil courier that rides the turtle it will probably ride other creatures.)
Insane losing streak yay, every game I try my fucking best to help team. No follow ups no nothing.
This is the mm balance, where everyone solo games on my team and enemy fucking plays 5man dota. Can't wait for the solo queues, can't come soon enough.
Wow, they degraded it? That's bull.
But what's the point of degrading this and possibly giving [i]400,000 more people an immortal item[/i]? Seems like counter-logic to me.
Also, Valve made that goal so unrealistic, I highly doubt it'll ever be met.

Unrealistic? We've already gone up $150k+ in ~3 days. That's 15% of the goal. And we still have 95 days.

People go batshit crazy for rare items.
Just wait.
Giving the same item for everyone when at least 400,000 people have bought the compendium will mean that the Immortal item would be pretty much worthless.
Also I hope that the Smeevils are highly customizable, sort of like most heroes have about 6-8 item slots, making the smeevil have as many fully customizable slots would be rad.
Ecenomic guy at Valve is probably testing with this how people react to this sort of things.
Natural response after Kickstarter(stretch goals).
But we have seen with the TF2 hats that DOTA 2 is going to be the same but with a larger playerbase means Valve is making tons of money in the future.

Wait, it's a hundred days? Woah. Okay, nevermind then.
But still, only giving an [i]immortal[/i] item to over 400,000 people, but not to a number less than that? I have no clue on how to think about that :v:
I can't be the only Dota player who does not give a shit about cosmetics. They're nice, sure, but I'm not going to spend my free time keeping up with an economy based on imaginary items.
TF2 suffered a similar fate.
I would totally buy so much shit if I actaully had any money......
But I do not have money. :(

you know you can care about the items and not care about the economy right

Actually, steam implemented "preorder goals" with tiers sometime last year, thats the first thing that came to my mind when i saw the rewards thing

I have all cosmetics I wanted so cosmetics are now unimportant to me

This right here.
I pretty much gift all the other items I don't use.
Playing against a team with a stun/disable on each character is nightmarish and not good for friendships (if you're playing with friends).
i was troll laning with lion early vs a solo nyx, wasn't getting any kills. swapped with skeleton king soloing bot vs am and skywrath. i guess it was a decent swap.

morphling is like the only interesting hardcarry to watch
Did anyone's game just shit itself? I was goin crazy with Nyx when the enemy team all dropped at the same exact time. There's no way it was rage since it happened all in a split second so our Void immediately paused. Of course the two Venezuelans on our team kept unpausing it and the ancient exploded as soon as they all log back in.
Great way to follow up a game where PL builds Battlefury and a game right after where our Medusa rushed Pipe+split shot+blademail.
