PC DotA 2

[woopedazz]

Same hero, only mid is up on the test client. Expect 5v5 pudge/whoever wars mid soon. Also practice lobbies have been given a shuffle command that mixes players so the MMR is approximately equal. Should be good.

I'll assume most of you guys know of the whirlpool forums.

They seem to talk up a big Dota game.

Should get a bit of a big footy v wrpl comp going.

Any takers?

I just swapped over to this game after playing LoL for about 1-2 years.

Gotta say I'm not going to be going back to that anytime soon. Absolutely love the emphasis on strategy that this game places. I've played about 60 games and won 25 at the moment. Been maining Naga, absolutely love playing her. You can single handedly change so many fights, and late game your output becomes ridiculous.

I've been wanting to get into Dota 2 since the Australian servers came up. Can anyone recommend a good beginner resource? Also who are some good heroes to learn with?

I thought the longtime LoL experience would hold me in good stead but it all feels so overwhelming right now! I was happy to get carried as Magnus in my first game. Charging around being a mentally deficient horse while my team mates did the heavy lifting.

I used dotabuff and dotafire for guides, hero builds, tips and general info.

I know some of the WP players from when the beta first came out. Even their mid tier teams will obliterate our best Still wouldn't mind some casual scrims.

When two jimmy rustlers meet head to head, jimmies will be rustled.

Had a shitful past few games. DoTA is a harsh mistress.

Ran into some useless twat called varj who used to be irritating as hell when I modded BA back in the day. He starts shit talking my friend and I for no reason and really sticking it to us before one of his 4 stack told us who he was. We still didn't recognise him until later (shows how much of an impression he must have made).

Was a pretty tense game as both sides were solid players, but we came out on top and crushed them hard. When I picked off the VS who was dewarding with a gem; game over son. 20 minutes of fantastic gameplay with a lot of 5v5 action, followed by a 15 minute victory lap slapping him in the face every now and then.

Beautiful feeling.

Some of the players on the aussie server are a fuking disgrace. We had taken 2 of their last tier towers (no rax) and we had our last tier towers up. A silencer dc'd and was a friend of the guy on our team. They kept unpausing even though we told him he was coming back. Then i had to go toilet told them i wont be longer than 2 mins. Come back literally 1 min later and they decided to take 2 of our rax while silencer was dc'd and i was afk. Then proceed to talk shit after the game.

Seriously shit like that pisses me off so bad

Played viper a few nights ago, other team had two rax down and things turned pear shape as soon as my friend had to leave. I couldnt of played a better game with viper, the pressure, gangs and what not. Score ended up being 24-8. Last 8 deaths came in the last 15-25 minutes of play trying to push the last rax. I experienced the greatest choke in dota history F***ing teammates

Edit: The way we lost was they killed all of us at bot and pushed to the throne through mid. Still blame my friends for being under farmed. Grr, won't be getting over this game for a long time

Just got this last week and am currently 23w-21l, every game has been pretty close so far. Had the most success with Ursa, though Riki also seems pretty easy to play. Invoker would be the most difficult one I've tried.

 

[100action]

have a 52% winning rate at 89 games played, was ~70% at around 50 games then had huge losing streaks.

Thoughts on how bad https://dotabuff.com/pages/dbr is going to be for anyone under Platinum and the dota community as a whole?

I'm not a fan of what this will do for the community if it is public. If it's private I'm all for people knowing what level they are and if they are improving.

 

[woopedazz]

Anyone get diamond? A mate of mine did, but he's the only one I've heard of.

I peaked at 1950 (mid diamond) a few months back. Currently I'm 1700 odd and only in platinum (94%).

Kinda bummed by the decline, but it is interesting to look at.

 

[100action]

Ah shit, 1341. 67% percentile

 

[woopedazz]

That's still pretty good.

 

[Donakebab]

Steam just keep giving me god damn keys, I've got heaps that I can't get rid of. If anyone wants one/two/ten shoot me a PM.

 

[FGMPR]

Me too. I have a ton of them.

 

[topher_gtr]

Dotabuff shut down

 

[woopedazz]

Yeah they had a hissy fit after Valve's reaction to DBR and shut up shop.

 

[woopedazz]

Just realised I have ~35 beta keys in my assorted inventories. Anyone want one?

 

[Hawthorn United]

I have 23 keys to send out.
